TO BEGIN TODAY:
Students Set To Participate
In Weekend NSA Seminar

By NORMA SUE WOLFE
March finally came in with a
great big "Ba-ah" but the Ypsi-
lanti weatherman predicts the
lamb won't live too long.
Yesterday's 62 degrees was three
below the highest on record-1948.
March 19 reached an all-time low
of 13 degrees in 1950.
The prediction for today reads
fair and mild, with a high near 60
degrees. Saturday will be cloudy'
with occasional rain and a general
cooling-off trend.
Expecting Rain
"We're expecting nothing but
rain from now on, but chances are
100 per cent that it may still snow
again," the weatherman said.
In the Law Club, future dignified
men of the cloak flew kites, while
East Quadders played frisbie.
One co-ed cut all classes and
spent the afternoon in the ceme-
tery on the Hill. She found it
"lively."
-The advent of trenchcoats, blaz-
ers and sweaters was other evi-
dence that spring has sprung.
Cotton bermudas pedalled bikes
previously in hibernation.
Barefoot Gal
One winter skirt and sweater-
clad coed wasseen walking bare-
foot on East Huron St. Two others,
standing on the front steps of
Angell Hall, were wishing for a
breezeless spot to sunbathe in.
Overheard after a lunge in a
Women's Athletic Building fencing
class was: "Spring is here, the
grass is riz; I wonder where the
flowers is."
Wolverine Club

Senior Officers

'60, treasurer and Molly Maxwell,
'60Ed., Secretary.

Events Committees. The petitions
may be picked up at the Wolver-
ine Club office in the SAB today
through Thursday from 3-5 p.m.

"Tippicanoe and The Island,

At 12:30 p.m. the canoes will
