To many Freshmen half the fun of initiation is griping
to each other about the restrictions imposed on th'em and
holding serious discussions among themselves in which most
remarks are prefaced by "Just wait until WE get to be
sophomores."
Initiation can be and is fun if both the Freshmen and
the Uppcrclassmcn enter into it in the right spirit. However
many wonderful friendships which might otherwise develop
between Freshmen and Upperclassmen never happen be-
cause an Uppcrclassman says "I wouldn't be caught dead
associating with a slime" or vice versa and really means it.
Although we've been here long enough to get our feet
on the ground there are still a lot of things we Freshmen
don't know. We admire the upperclassmen for many reasons
because you are so self-confident and sure of yourselves;
because you have the same goals in life that we do and are
closer to attaining them than we are; because we admire
your way of living Christianity; or simply because we have
seen enough of you to know that you are definitely worth
knowing.
Likewise many upperclassmen although they'd be the
last to admit is might actually benefit by listening to Fresh-
men's ideas on certain subjects.
Neither side wins when one side becomes angry and
attaches to certain incidents an importance which is com-
pletely out of proportion with their real significance.
Initiation would be mohe enjoyable for both Freshmen
and Upperclassmen if both groups would remember that
Christianity can be carried even into this phase of college
life and that college students are too mature to throw tem-
per tantrums.

New Members of
Mission Band
Present Program
Seven new members of the
Mission Band gave their testi-
mony at the regular meeting of
the organization in the BSU room
on Friday night.
The front of the BSU room was
arranged like a dormitory room
with all the lights out except one
small lamp. The seven girls each
gave their testimony.
"The program was unique be-
cause each of the girls talked
sincerely not trying to impress
anyone but simply sharing her
experiences with the members of
the Mission Band" said Eugene
Fleming a member of the Mis-
sion Band.
Everyone is welcome to join
the Mission Band.
Alpha Beta Sigma
Hear S. Waisman
Business majors had an inti-
mate glimpse into the complex
workings of the retailing field
Tuesday evening when Mr. Sam-
mie Waisman spoke to the mem-
bers of Alpha Beta Sigma. Mr.
Waisman is owner of Waisman's
Department Store.
He described the functions in-
volved in the selling non-selling
office and service divisions of a
small retail store as well as larg-
er ones employing hundreds of
people with over $30 million dol-
lars volume a year.
While he emphasized that
nothing is gained without hard
work Mr. Waisman said the field
is unlimited today for college
trained business people. Many
openings occur continually in top
paying executive positions as well
as in other facets of a retailing
organization such as merchandis-
ing public relations credit and
accounting. The college trained
worker of today has an excellent
chance through hard work and
application to reach top bracket
positions in almost any field of
his choice Mr. Waisman said.
Gene Jordan president of the
club conducted a short discussion
session of future club activities
and meetings for the semester.
