Due to testa and classes that could not d a few seniors had to In the day. ■loner had the seniors piled li ir cars and driven a few miles than their Btomaehi to growl. This was soon remedied, however, .'or breakfast was th m at Sheldon's Restaurant in Keysville. Such a wonderful feeling, too, to sit down and have your breakfast brought to you and not to hear little bells . very five minutes to remind you that this must be your hut bite. After breakfast it was back to Bin and off to Pettus' Lake. Shelters were present in case of rain, and the entire landscape encouraged relaxation and complete oblivion in relation to . student teaching and assembly . • they thought. Assembly, however, falls on Thursday of this week. X.tivities Vary The highest forms of activity centered around swimming, sunbathing, playing bridge, and just enjoying discussions of what has passed and what i: to come. Dr. Lankford even offered his boat and water skis so that everyone's ta could in some way be satisfied, ■■•'ler these strenuous ties, the seniors' appetites their main concern, again was solved as a picnic lunch was all packed and waiting. It didn't take long for ' i' eniori to down the contents and be back to their previous inwhich occupied their time until late afternoon.

T-Shirt, Torso Captivate Scene In Dress Styles By Though
Jadj Detrkk thoughts about till tend to be expressed In '• ray of madras material and MeMullen collared blouses, enough the fashion emph shifted to styles .n die i i-shirt Revival The biggest news Is the great t-shirt dress revival. The knitted cotton dresses are designed With Mousing tops and skirts that are slim and ea-y. The Ulne is lightly shirred, being caught up with a belt of the material or of leather, especially patent leather. Following the Sixty mode these smartly designed dresses will feature checks and stripes in the consttve yet - sophisticated black and white combination. The low-down on waists comes with another revival—the torso Emphasising a fullness that begun on the brink of the torso, this years dress, unlike the torso of a few years back, will be seen most often with a d waist. For a most drain iiic effect the torso dress should be accompanied by a clim'-fitting hair cut, a wheelbrimmed straw hat, and really long gloves. Overblousc In The youthful overblouse dress aU going like Sixty.
