eek Dorm Beats
If you wire a guest or a hostess
could lii k your fingers to a beat
and were dressed for the part of
a beatnik you were probably at
the t'rbaiiite Beatnik party Tuesday
evening.
"Be Ciincliiest Pad" (alias Mrs.
W. (!. Schroeder's studio) was the
site of the party which was attend-
ed by some .'SO or to "beatniks."
Alter selecting food from a beat-
nik menu with such delicate punch
or milk drinks as "Exotica" and
"Stone Cold Sober" everyone com-
posed beatnik poetry and drew
pictures.
Each t'rbaiiite had invited a
dormitory girl as tier guest to the
"way-out party."
Special recognition was given to
Mie prize winning poem which was
intnposeil by Joan Webb.
"The Baptist Beatnik
We're having a blast and every-
body's here
But don't think the worst for we
have no beer.
That c razy music is the beat.
But we as Baptists no move
feet."

LLOYD ANN BROWNINC "Well
what are you running for THIS
week?"
Congratulations of the highest
form go to all those who racked
up enough honor points to make
the Dean's List. Nice job of faking
out!
A second congratulation should
go to ELWANA HAWTHORNE
who apparently made a smashing
debut over the radio during half
time of the HPC-San Marcos game.
Elwatia reported via la air waves
that the brave souls and bodies of

TOR El) CAIN YELL LEADERS
CECIL FRIEND RICHARD
(5 KANT and HOWIE SCHUTT and
herself had traveled through sleet
and snow to get to the game.
Now that's school spirit.
We also heard that BEVERLY
MCRRAY RONDA HORN and
others made the trip only to get
there after the game.
Sigh.
At the pep rally the other night
PARKA RUTH BRYANT after
some friendly encouragement from
some upperelassmeii stood by her-
self and began buttoning-up.
The tiling spread until all 15
freshmen at the pop rally were
standing.
Dig.
Slam.
We sure didn't see any hands
stuck in pockets when DR. NEW-
MAN promised an extra holiday.
Strangely enough they were all
clapping.
It seems probable (but here
it's evidently not even possible)
that the same hands that clapped
for the extra holiday should have
been at the pep rally Friday night.
(That includes UPPERCLASS-
MEN.) It just seems that way and it
might be wrong.
Itut vv don't think so!
That's all for now. Dave the
happiest of holidays and may you
suffer through that extra day if
you weren't at the pep rally.
Thirty plus thirty Jnmes.
