OOP Needles in the Haystack By Louise McDill During the past few weeks, plans have been shaping up to make the week end of May 1 go down in pleasant memories as a traditional University of Nebraska week end of tradition.. First May Day, with traditions galore inter-fraternity sings crowning of the honored May Queen and her attendants, and most exciting, the masking of new Mortar Boards and tapping of the new Innocents. Then Engineer's Week and open house which many Ag students will also be partici pating in and the rest of us will find interesting what the boys in "Engine college" do. Ag college has their own special .celebration for the memory book this year. The Farmers Fair, start ing on Friday and lasting through Saturday, is back this year after four years of war hibernation. The Fair board is literally "starting from scratch" this year since none of them have ever seen a Fair before. But with movies and ad vice that oldsters in the Fair tradition have offered, all Ag college is picking up the spirit and is sure to come out with a week end up to Aggie tradition. A convocation was held several weeks ago to acquaint students with the Fair traditions. Various committees have been functioning for many months. Early in April postholes were dug for the Rodeo arena to be erected south of the Ag Union. Next Tuesday the next in the sequence of events before the Fair will take place. The Goddess of Agriculture will be elected at an all Ag campus vote to be taken in the Ag Union. The Fair will have many other features that will be worthy of the memory book. I'll have more about it next week. cused absences may not receive above the grade of 'D for the course." .HOC UMfiT'S
