CUSTOM WEEK
HAPPENINGS
Take a look at theSe familiar "sites". They are from I to r—Frank Sacco,

If a member of the older gener
ation was strolling on campus the
week of September 23, and did not
know anything about the adventures
of a college freshman the first week
of school, he would have thought
that all of us have gone "snakey".
What would he have seen? Well,
to put a long story short let's think
back to that famous week called
Customs Week. As he entered the
campus he would have seen 18 and
19 year old students walking around
with the tingle of a crawling infant.
Immediately, doubt would enter his
mind. He might have thought that
he was being put back in time be
cause people with blue caps on
their heads were walking back
wards. As he moved into the cam
pus, clearing his vision about the
trees, he sees a big grown up knee
ling down and roaring like a lion.
After finding a safe hiding place,
so he thinks, he turns around in
wonder as to where a muffled tune
is coming from. To his surprise,
by Rich Dino
he finds a headless girl kneeling
down under a cardboard box sing
ing. He is beginning to wonder how
he can get off the farm without be
ing:seen. He conies to a road and
begins running downhill. What does
he see? Boys with scarves, gloves,
basketballs, croquet mallets, al
most everything mentionable. He
thought he saw a boy with a chick
en on a leash, but he was relieved
when it was only a mirage. Behind
the boys were girls with different
colored sox, signs of everything
imaginable, and funny looking bows
in their hair. Hiding in the woods,
he uncovered two boys with closely
shaven hair cuts. Finally he got
to his car and sped away like a
madman.
As we look back we can now
laugh, but it wasn't funny then.
So we rub our hands together say
ing, "Wait till next year". But
now the fun is over, and it's down
to work. We are in water over our
heads, but we can still swim.
