Freshman Smoker Starts at 8 p. m. in Mem Hall Tonight

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

There should be approximately one quart of beer available for every freshman at the Freshman Smoker tonight, unless the Smoker Committee has grossly underestimated the number of connoisseurs of the beverage in the Class of 1952. Alcoholic festivities begin at 8:00 p. m. in Memorial Hall.

Smoker committeemen have pieced together a program which they hope will make the staid, marble Civil War heroes who line Memorial Hall blink.

Clarinetist Ed Hall, who is currently at the Savoy, and several follow musicians headline a series of eight entertainment acts. Pat Rainey, former vocalist at the Campus Room and now at the Hotel Fensgate; Marie McDonald, not "The Body" but a New England Tributary Theater singer, and Eric Victor, from the cast of the musical revue "Inside U. S. A." are the other professional performers who will be on hand.

Students Perform

A Dixieland band, The Crimson Stompers; the Harvard Krocodiloes, a Cambridge edition of the Whiffenpoofs; and a freshman quartet, the Four Flats are the collegiate entertainers.

In the refreshments department the Yardlings are carting 5000 cigarettes, 30 cases of soft drinks, an unlimited supply of orange juice, 50 gallons of ice cream, and, of course, beer into Memorial Hall.

The orange juice was sent gratis to the freshman class by the governor of Florida, Fuller Warren.
