cock, director of Junior Division.
Freshmen activities included reg
istration, orientation, and special
programs designed to acquaint
them with the University campus.

their parents were received by
60 hosts and hostesses who ac
qainted them with the program
for the week.
Freshmen were divided into
four groups designated by colors
red, green, blue and brown.
Blues and reds took pre-registra-
tion tests in addition to the other
activities of the week. All stu
dents were required to attend
some meetings as a group.
The daytime schedules in
eluded individual and group
appointments with advisers.
Advisers were assisted by 175
student leaders appointed by
Coed Counselors and Innocents.
This program gave new stu
dents help in planning their
class schedules for the year.
Two orientation sessions for
each color group were held dur
ing the week. At the first meet'
' ting a panel discursed "Getting
Started Right in College." Panel
members were Sharon Fritzler,
Marilyn Moomey, Jerry Johnson
and Jerry Matzke. Use of the li
brary was discussed in the second
orientation meeting.
Registration and college convo
cations concluded the daytime ac
tivities. Physical examinations
and speech and hearing tests were
also given to the freshmen.

Vila H. Barnard, chairman of
mechanical engineering, returned
late Friday from England. He had
attended the Methodist Ecumen
ical conference at Oxford from
Aug. 28 until Sept 7, and also
spent about 12 days in London.
Barnard was among 200 dele
gates from the United States who
attended the world-wide session.
About 500 persons attended the
conference, which reviewed the
ideas of Methodism.
"We visited the borne of John
Wesley, the founder of the Meth
odist church,' says Barnard, "the
churches where he preached and
bis grave."
The Methodist Ecumenical con
ferences have been held every 10
years since 1881. The 1941 con
ference was postponed because of
the war until 1947, when it was
held at Springfield, Mass.

Red Beanies
Until Snowfall
One of the traditions that per
tain to the freshman student, is
the beanie of Scarlet and Cream,
This tradition is sponsored by the
Coed Counselors, represented by
Peg Mulvaney, and the Innocents
Society, represented by Kent Ax
tell. This beanie has been worn for
many years and though its color
has changed from green to Scar
let and Cream, the tradition has
not changed.
Traditionally, the beanie is
worn until the first snow. If the
snow is late in coming, there is a
tug of war between the freshmen
boys, and the sophomore boys, at
the annual homecoming football
game.
School tradition has it that if
the sophomore class wins the tug
of war, the freshmen must wear
the 'beanies until the first snow,
but if the freshmen class wins, all
freshmen students may remove
their beanies immediately.
According to the sponsors more
than 1,200 beanies have been sold
this year. Anyone who did not get
a beanie may purchase one in
Mr. Harper's office, Room 201
Administration Building.
