Parents' Day
Sunday
The annual Parents' Day program will take place on Sunday,
November 10. 1963 at Behrend Campus. This year there will be an
open house from 2 p.m. til 4 p.m. in the Otto F. Behrend Science
Building. At this time parents will have the opportunity to discuss
their son's or daughter's progress with the student's advisor and pro
fessors.
Parents will have received the student's mid-term grades by this
time or, if they have not, the faculty will have them, and will be avail
able for consultation between 2 and 4.
Although staff members will be on hand from 2 til 4, we strongly
urge that parents arrive before 3:30.
Refreshments will be served in the lobby between 2 and 4 p.m
Both the Botany lab and the Chemistry labs will be open, and
Dr. Elizabeth Smith, assistant professor of Zoology, has expressed a
marked interest in meeting the parents of all her students. All teachers
welcome the chance to meet the parents and students should urge
their parents to confer with their professors.

Halloween
Hootenanny
Howling
Hit
Saturday night, November 1,
drew to the bosom of the old stu-
dent lounge, a number of hungry,
hilarious students ready to delve
into the pyramids of pizza and
pop provided by the SGA at their
first pizza party/hootenanny of
the season
Although the party was a finan-
cial fiasco for the SGA, it goes
without saying, that this Behrend
tradition was carried on in the
true folksy spirit
The highlight of the night was
provided by the ever-lovin', ever-
ready, ever-free "Coachmen" min-
us Al Smith, but plus Jack Butler
They provided the crowd with folk
tunes sung in their own, audible
style, and unbeknowst to most two
freshmen had surreptiously set up
a tape recorder to catch the whole
program, plus comments for pos-
terity
