Leading the entour- age was the four piece Zeta Psi band dressed in "morning" clothes and led by Hal Beam. Their dirges threw an atmos- phere of funeral gloom over the entire campus. In fact, the inci- dent caused such gloom that sev- eral coeds were seen shedding tears in their-coke. STHE DECEASED is now buried -on the mall along with political discussions.
