Worst Dressed
to Get Awards
at Hobo Holiday
Wear your old jeans, burlap
sacks, rags, old football uniforms, clothes that you would
not even wear to a dog fight.
Wear anything—just as long as
it looks bad. The Key Club
wants the dancers at the "Hard
Times" dance to look like the
most poverty-stricken mob that
ever assembled.
As an incentive for poor dress,
there will be, three prizes given
to the couples that are the
"worst dressed." First place, or
"the foulest dressed," will receive a free ticket to the 1963
Grad Dance on June 5. The
second prize will be two tickets
to "Lawrence of Arabia," now
showing at the Lyric Theater.
The third place couple will receive, two long-playing albums.
Every couple that attends the
dance this Friday night is eligible for the prizes. The only
stipulation is that they be extremely sloppily dressed. Suits or
even school clothes are forbidden. Anything better than dirty
jeans is considered taboo.
A committee of adult judges
will conduct a "Hobo Parade"
midway in the dance. All cou-

Satans Take Second In Muncie Relays
American College Tests, bus
transmissions, and late buses
were just a few of the problems
that the Blue Devil cindermen
had to contend with when they
entered Saturday's edition of the
Muncie Relays. Scheduled to
leave at 10 o'clock, the Satans
had to wait around school until
11:30 because of a mix-up in
ordering buses. Due to this, they
arrived at Ball field just late
enough io keep them from entering their strongest team in
the 100-yard dash trials, and
kept them from having any entries at all in the low hurdles
and the mile.
Terry Wiseman, Obie McKenzie, and Larry Hall arrived by
car, about 15 minutes after the
meet was scheduled to start.
Wiseman was unable to run in
his specialty, the 100-yard dash.
Buddy McGuire was Shortridge's
only entrant, and he placed third
in his trial heat.
Late Arrival Permits
No Warmup Time
Because of their late arrival,
many of the Shortridge athletes
had to enter their events without any warmup time at all. This
was true of the two mile relay
team, but evidently they didn't
need any for they virtually
stepped right off the bus and
up to the starting line to set
a new school record. Paul Shelton gave the team a second
place start at the end of the
first half mile, then Ron Daven
port took the lead in the second
leg of the race. Dave Biesemeyer
was just nipped out of the lead
as he passed the baton to the
"Big U," Jerry Upchurch, who
took back the lead for the Satans, then stretched. out on the
third turn to chalk up a new
school record of 8:13.1.
The half-mile relay saw Terry
Wiseman back in action, when
they combined their speed to
turn in a winning time of 1:34.3
on a slow track. Larry Hall,
Obie McKenzie, Terry Wiseman,
and Howard Maxey formed the
winning combination.
Bingham and Thornton, Shortridge's two entries in the low
hurdles, both turned in good
times for a track in such poor
