MCVI By TERRY GLECOFF SSG LATS ~returned to MCVI for another "year of frenzied activity, schol. "arly or otherwise. Old friends were met, vacations re-hashed, 'and that old guessing . game, 'Wonder Who I'll Have Fo "Home Room" was played once "more. Patiently, «while Mr. Robarts read the lists "of students and cell blocks,( rather, classrooms. "rooms. Timetables were scribbled down, stuffed pockets and then we left, snick ering at the ill-fated frosh on i ethe way. Poor devils! »=. The impatience mounted those efirst few days. At last -- it was "Friday, and there they were, sneaking down the side streets, "for fear of being sighted by the Nasty McLaughlinites. T'was a beautiful sight to be- hold, those frosh. The boys were e@dorned with lipstick, a veiled hat, pink ribbon, a rubber boot on the left foot, and a beach sandal on the right (of course the beauty of both appendages was enhanced by nylon stock- ings, held up below the knee by pretty, pink ribbons), Burlap 'was required for a seven-foot Sash around the waist and a bandage on the big, right toe. Inside-out shorts were worn, topped off by a_ scraggly, roughed-up T-shirt, upon which was written, "We Love Senior Girls", Naturally, a small for- mal touch was added: a large, gaudy necktie. The girls' costume was the same except for these varia- tions: the footwear was op- posite, that is, rubber boot on right foot and sandal on left. On the girls' shirts was written, "Spazz"', "I Love Alfred E Neuman", "Bubonic'"', 'Potr. zebie' and various other odd exultations, The girls carried nothing on the left hand, where- @s the boys were required to fasten a teddy bear to their wrist by means of a nice, rough cord. Both sexes were made to carry the usual six-quart basket containing the usual Initiation Day items. Ah Initiation Day! One re- markable aspect of this day of days is talents im our frosh.

The action on the stage held our interest for News 2 ntral Start At Anderson High who started the school year with a bang, for Friday was Initiation Day for our grade niners. And what a gaudy sight they were! Girls could be -- distinguished from the boys only by their red- striped, blue dotted faces. They also sported a bathing cap adorned with weeds, a boy's pajama top, a lange coat open at the front, jeans with one leg rolled to the knee, a kneesock on one foot and a sack tied around the other, The boys' faces featured a green no 1 med circler On theh oeads they wore © ecvr ated paper plates. The rest of their costume consisted of a T- shirt and tie, an old shawl, pa jama bottoms, and a rubber boot on the wrong foot. All of them wore placards beaming their names and carried large cardboard hoxes in which o bear books when so told. Their talents, ranging from shoe-shining to vocalizing, were mercilessly exploited by their seniors, who pounced upon them at every opportunity.
