The Spring Activity Com-
mittee is now at work try-
ing to develop some new
a c t iv i ty that can replace
We stern Week which was
abolished last year.
Sugge stion boxes have
been set up in the lobby of
the SUB, but so far there
have been only a few sug-
gestions. George Markley,
chairman of the Spring
A ctivity Committee, has
sent letters to the larger
colleges in Texas and Lou-
isiana requesting infor-
mation as to what they have
in Lhe way of a spring
activity.
The suggestions and in-
formation from the other
colleges all seem to point
in one direction: a spring
carnival. This seems from
all points of view an excel-
lent suggestion. At this
time on final decision has
been ma de and the commit-
tee is still open to all sug-
gestions. However, I think
this idea should be care-
fully considered by all stu-
dents at Lamar. Don't let
the Student Council, me, any
individual, or any one group
dictate a new spring activ-
ity. You have the oppor-
tunity to voice your own
Manuscripts for the spring

A goal of 450 copies was
set for the fall issue of
