—The Daily Collegian Tuesday, May 8, 1979 Spring Week contest results are corrected Spring Week Chairman Paula Fedorka announced last night revisions have been made in the Spring Week standings. Alpha Chi Sigma fraternity and Phi Mu sorority were third place winners in the chariot race; Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity and Delta Delta Delta sorority have been awarded first place in the skit competition. Fedorka said these changes had no effect on the overall standings, and the errors were mathematical. Trophies for these events were given to the Spring Week chairmen for the individual sororities in the final Panhellenic Council meeting of the term. Calling Spring Week 1979 "the most successful in five years," Fedorka urged New postal restrictions to start New size standards for envelopes, cards and other pieces of mail will become effective on July 15, the United States Postal Service said. If pieces are less than 3 1 / 2 inches high, five inches long, or seven thousandths of an inch thick, they won't be mailed.

Along the way, they made a stop at Giza, where on the night of a lunar eclipse they did a concert in front of the Great Pyramid. And Bob Weir, who plays rhythm guitar and does some of the vocals for the Dead, recently told a Cleveland newspaper reporter that he has even more ambitious journeys in mind. "What I would really like to do sometimes is a recording safari around the world," he said. "Record native songs. I'd mostly go to Africa. . . ." Thus, in view of the Dead's ap parent penchant for journeys to unusual places, no one really should have been surprised when it was officially announced last week that the rumors were true and that the legendary supergroup would indeed be appearing at 8 tonight in Rec Hall. After all, the land of Eddy Eddy, the Phi Psi, and tuition hikes may be the only bizarre destination left for them. However, what may surprise and perhaps perplex the local hardcore Dead freaks especially the ones in the garland-and-skull t-shirts who camped out in front of the HUB last Monday night to be assured of getting seats to the sold-out performance is that their favorite band's sound is, well, changing a bit. The difference in the Dead is readily apparent on their most recent release, last fall's "ShakedoVin EVAN PUGH SCHOLARS The Evan Pugh Scholars are those juniors and seniors who were in the upper 0.5 per cent of their respective classes at the end of winter term, 1979.

The album, which was produced by Lowell George of Little Feat fame, includes several cuts on which the Dead stray from their characteristic amalgam of country-blues-rock 'n' roll, towards a sound which is lighter, tighter, a lot jazzier and if it dare be inferred of these sixties counterculture heroes a little more commercial. The most glaring example is the•title track, in which lead guitarist Jerry Garcia wraps a few of his unconventional riffs around. some urban-flavored lyrics ("Nothing's shakin on Shakedown Street/used to be the heart of town. . . .") and a beat which is decidedly discoish. Of course Weir, who did the lead vocals on "Sugar Magnolia," "One More Saturday Night" and many of the other songs which made the Dead symbolic of virtuoso laid-backedness in the early seventies, has categorically denied the changes are the result of any overt action on the part of the band. "If the album is more accessible than anything we've done in the past," he told the Philadelphia Inquirer a short time ago, "it's not through any conscious effort on our part. We were limited in the time we had to put it together, with the trip to Egypt coming up" the album was recorded last summer in San Francisco "so we decided not to overly'complicate things, to put a lot of stuff on the record. We wanted to make it as simple as possible." Weir, however, did admit that the Dead are indeed moving in a different direction. "To my ears, at least, I don't think we can be labelled any one thing country rock or blues rock or jazz rock," he said. And even "Shakedown Street" may not give an accurate indication of how the Dead will sound tonight, due to a shift in personnel since the album's release last October.
