WELCOME TO EASTERN Fairview Band and Chorus Members Out-of-town Students to Residence Hall High School Dramatists for Festival We seem to be starting the new quarter with the proverbial bang. We are indeed fortunate to have the Fairview Band and Chorus entertain us tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. These are consid- ered two fine organizations. Let's all turn out for this es- peciall good program. Not to be slighted in the least is the Second Annual High School One-Act Play Festival. Those who have attended these perforamnces in the past know that they are well worth seeing. Friday and Saturday are the dates. By the way, you might like to know that there will be a dance following the Friday festivities. We definitely want to wel- come the students in the new Residence Hall. It's something you can be proud of, to be able to say you were the first stud- ents to live in the new dorm- itory. It's really beautiful. By the way, let's keep it that way.
