Never-Sail came into her own last Saturday night at Bks. 20. Using the ship theme, 20’s party was on the right course. A/S Stu Block’s signs indicated to the landlubbers the salty names for the different parts of the ship. The port side is the left side of the ship, or is it the other way around? Special guests of the barracks were this station’s officers and those men who were on board last semester. The highlight of the eve ning was the appearance of the nationally known trio, “Two Girls and a Sailor.” The old DU bar was made ship shape by A/S Lou Piha and his crew, without a boatswain’s chair. The room retained its rus tic atmosphere but ice cream and ham sandwiches took the place of previous delicacies. The party was topped by- an all-Barracks lam session. The U.S.S. Never- Sail has left her moorings to await ■reconstruction some time in the near future.
