Miss Rice's parents, Mr. and Mrs. E.

For the "glee" students of the freshman class challenge other classes to a contest, for which original songs and words must be writ ten, as well as a number of paro- dies. The losing class is "dunked" as a penalty and the senior class, this year's losers, unfortunately has lost three years out of four. In addition to the major penalty, many odd and humorous bets are made and these traditionally are paid off the Monady after the contest. Juniors won the 1950 contest. The glee this year, held Sat urday night, was followed by a reception given by faculty mem bers in Baxter hall for parents of all students.
