As final as the gun to end Monday's Rose Bowl game was the 8:20 whistle marking the beginning of classes yesterday morning. With bags and baggage tossed aside and holiday festivities relegated to the background of memory, about 4,610 Hillsters returned to school and the pursuit of knowledge.
Socially speaking, campus activities for the month of January will follow a slower trend than those preceding the Christmas holidays when parties and merriment were in high gear. For with one eye on the future and the other on books, students are early awakening to incoming examinations.
In spite of the threat of onomish, finals, the future is brightened by promises of a dizzy whirl for the weekend. Friday night might follow the weekend with a clash Clyde Bysam's orchestra will supply the jive for the Seriimum Varsity in the Memorial Union ballroom. At the same time members of Alpha Omicron Pi will hold the first sorbity party of 1940 in the chapter house. And members of Psi Beta Pi will hold their winter Friday evening, forgetting for a while, bones, nerves, and cadavers.
Stags on the campus will have a busy time Saturday night dividing their attention between the Alpha Chi Omega party in the Union building, the Sigma Kappa and Chi Omega parties to be given at the chapter houses on Edgehill road and on West Campus drive, and the Miller hall party. Sigma Gamma Epsilon will hold the spotlight as the only fraternity "partying" that evening;
A freshman party in the Memorial Union building will supplant the usual W.S.G.A. tea next Wednesday afternoon. On Jan. 17, however, the final ten of the semester will be given to the student's lounge of Frank强 hall.
On Friday, Jan. 12, Kansas State will invade the Jayhawk basket ball court—an attack that all Hillstars hope will be turned aside by Phog Allen's quintet. Following the game Acacia fraternity and 1332 Louisiana house will post post-holiday parties while I.S.A. members take over the Memorial Union ballroom for an association varsity.
Defying the evil luck attributed to the 13th, Pi Beta Phi and Sigma Phi Epsilon will cross their fingers and invite Lady Luck to their parties on Saturday evening of that date.
Hill society will do a fade out until February with the Delta Chi and Triangle celebrations to be held Saturday, Jan. 20, five days before finals.
Coming out from post-holiday inactivity on the campus, Corbin hall will hold open house from 7 to 8 tonight.
