Seniors Sneak Despite
Vigilant Junior Class
Despite energetic “pre-sneak” ac
tivities by a vigilant junior class
which for a time looked as if the
traditional Bluffton college senior
sneak day might be thwarted, the
upper classmen finally got away on
schedule for their annual one-day
holiday from the campus Tuesday
of last week.
After all seniors had succeeded in
eluding pursuit, however, the group
finally made a noisy departure thru
the campus in a chartered bus, after
they had been picked up at the
homes of friends in the community.
First stop in the tour was at
Bowling Green where the seniors
breakfasted.
From there they continued to De
troit where the day’s program in
cluded visits to televisions shows,
shopping centers, a trip to Canada,
and an evening visit to see the
Shakespearean flay, “As You Like
It,” starring Catherine Hepburn.
Tired but content, the seniors then
left on the return trip to the cam
pus, with the outing summed up in
the words of one participant, “it
was worth all the energy and plan
ning.”
Birthday Gathering
Honoring the birthday anniver
sary of Mrs. Leona Stettler a fam
ily gathering and basket supper was
