Party Bugs Go Paddling, Helling, and Dancing
In spring, there is that certain something that gives students the party bug. (Some Saturday the society staff is going to kick off and have a party instead of writing about them.)
Friday night the Dandelion Dance was held, although it didn't bring the dandelions. Last night the Sigma Nu freshmen and dates ousted the actives and had their annual paddle party. An informal dinner with paddles as place cards preceded dancing at the chapter house. Decorations were paddles with all the fraternity and sorority names on them.
The Sigma Phi Epsilon spring party was held in the Memorial Union ballroom last night. Clayton Harbin's band played under a large cardboard replica of the Sig Ep pin. The ten Hill sororities' pins were represented above the pillars around the dance floor. Stretted from each pin to the ceiling were crepe paper streamers of each sorority's colors. To one side of the ballroom a garden scene with a wishing well and love seats added to the spring atmosphere.
Clyde Bysom played for Sigma Chi's hell party at the chapter house last night.
Alpha Chi Sigma, chemistry fraternity, entertained with a dutch-lunch.

... dandelions are not here, but the other blossoms will not disappoint us, so put woolens away for good and bring out your new spring togs.

Rilla Ann Townsend danced as Salome with seven veils. True to biblical history, she carried the head of John the Baptist on a platter,
Peggy Roberts dressed like her "gangrene car," wearing a green skirt and blouse. She carried a tail light on her hip and a license plate on her foot. Jane McFarland swayed in grass skirts. Cecil King flew about the party as a "bat out of hell," and Joanne Fronkier dressed in high water pants and sweat skirt to represent the Beta's in the underworld.
Virginia Ruse was old Demon

Patti Duncan managed to get by the gates in a tux and derby, representing a Sigma Chi. Marion Bartlett was dressed in a map of the world with a weather-vane as a headaddress.
