Eggs, Pie Flung at Fling; Lake Became Duck Soup
By Robert Stevens
Ducks that would not cross the finish line, lakeings, eggs thrown all over people, pie in the face, and people falling in mud were all part of Spring Fling.
Spring Fling, sponsored by the Association of University Residence Halls, AURH, was held last weekend.
SATURDAY MORNING the volley ball games were played and the gymkhana were run. Grand champions in the volleyball competition were Battenfeld Hall and the sixth floor of Lewis Hall.
The gymkhana was set up on a course in the parking lot of Templin Hall.
Winners in the women's division were Susan Griffiths, Chanute senior, large cars; and Pamela Latshew, Kansas City, Mo., senior, small cars.
The men's division winner in small cars was Fred Samuelson Wichita senior. Dee Gerstenberger, Park Forrest, Ill., senior won the large car division.
ROBERT HENRY, El Dorado freshman ran the course in 3:17 while the winning time was 3:00 in his division. He drove a Model A.
At noon a picnic was held in Allen Field House. Afternoon activities,
moved to Potter Lake, and began by a special ten minute concert on the Campanile by Albert Gerken, University carillonneur.
A four section marathon race was the first event of the afternoon. A "baton", actually a cardboard barrel, was issued to each team of four couples and each pair had to carry it 40 yards.
Winning pairings were Jollife Hall and fifth floor of Hashinger Hall. The second place went to sixth floor Lewis and Battenfeld.
The next event was the pie eating contest with Dennis Colombo. Brooklyn freshman, taking honors by eating the full pie in 43 seconds. The girls champion was Jane Bellman, Randolph sophomore in one minute 13 seconds.
THE LAST OF the games was the egg toss. The object in this race is to toss an egg back and forth between couples and to see who can get the farthest distance from each other.
Winners were Carol Thomas. Wichita junior and Larry Lay, Kansas City, Mo., junior.
The duck race climaxed the day's activities. The ducks refused to cross the finish line and the Ellsworth Hill duck named Candy was declared the winner after 20 minutes.
The best over-all men's division winners in Spring Fling was fourth floor of Ellsworth Hall. The corresponding trophy for the women went to sixth floor of Lewis.
LAST NIGHT the Spring Sing entitled "Musical Moments" was held. It was sponsored by the Inter-Residence Association.
The singing group selected as the best was the Templin Small Ensemble, directed by Melvin Dickson, Dallas, Texas, senior.
A tie was run-off by a three legged race between fourth floor Ellsworth and Battenfeld for the men's division championship.
Other winners in the Spring Sing competition were the Watkins and Pearson, mixed ensemble; Sellards, women's small ensemble; The Voices of Templin, men's large ensemble and Lewis, women's large ensemble.

Asian Library Growth Leads Field at Watson
The East Asian Library is one of the fastest growing sections of Watson Library, according to John L. Glinka, acting associate director of Watson Library.
Karl Lo, librarian of the East Asian library section, said that in an average year over 4,000 volumes are added to this section. Although this year, he said, 5,000 volumes have already been added with still three months left in the school fiscal year.
The library, which has doubled in size in the last few years, is currently ranked 25th in size in the United States and Canada among East Asian collections, according to Lo.
Although the remodeling has not been completed in this section, it is hoped that it will be finished by the end of this semester.
THE EAST ASIAN library section
was recently moved to the northwest portion of the basement where the Kansas Room was formerly located.
The biggest aim of the move is to provide more reader space. A reading room will be provided for about 50 people in the front of the section.
Included in the reading room will be newspapers, magazines, other periodicals and reference books from the Far East.
the library now houses 22,000 volumes in the stacks at the rear of their area.
In describing the purpose of the East Asian library section. Lo said, it is primarily to complement the courses taught in the East Asian studies area.
1. Now that graduation's getting close, have you given any thought to the kind of work you'd like to do?
I want to work for The Good of Mankind.
2. I might have suspected.
I'll probably grow
a beard.
3. Is it required?
It helps. And I'll certainly need a pair of sandals.
4. What do you expect to earn?
All I ask is the satisfaction of knowing I'm helping to Build a Better World.
5. I'll be doing much the same thing. I've also lined up a job that affects society in a positive way. And if I do good, I'll move up, and my decisions will be even more important in the scheme of things.
But where's your beard?
What about sandals?
6. You don't need them in Equitable's development program. All you need is an appetite for challenge and responsibility, and the desire to do the best possible job. The pay is tops, too.
You know, I'm afraid a beard would itch—could you get me an interview with Equitable?
