AN APPROPRIATE FINISH

Traveler headlines read, "We're Bowl Bound" and "Go Hogs Go - For 11 -0." On the strengrh of an unde­feated regular season, the RazorlDacks of [he Univcr~ity of !\rkansas along with approximately 30,000 fans made their way to Dallas and the Cotton Bowl with finge 's crossed.

There were morning parties, afternoon parties, evening parties, and Nc,,- Years Eve parties. There m: re planned pep rallies and spontaneollS pep rallies, but where there were Arkansas supporters, there we're crossed fingers.

At 1 :00 p.m. Kew Years Day finge:rs were uncrossed, and the lIosrs got down to business. It wasn' t an easy afternoon for the Hogs or the Arkansans, bu t when the Traveler came out on January 5, 1965, the head­line read, «-We're No. I!"

Derbies are rarely seen on the U of A campus, but they came in big this year with the establ ishment of Sigma Chi Derby Day. This contest between sororities was started at the University of California in 1930, and it only took th irty-five years for it to reach Arkansas.

And then came the Fourteen Points. They were presented to Presiden t M ul­lins, reviewed by t he Senate, and eventu­a11y acted upon or explained by Pres i­dent tvlull ins to the apparent satisfaction of the students.
