Recording Star, Neil Sedaka will be the featured attraction of the 1963 Spring Weekend. He will appear Saturday Evening and present two hour-long shows at 9:30 and 11:30. Sedaka will be backed by a “twist” band, which will also play for dancing from 8 :45 to 1 ‘a.m. The admission will be 1 dollar. Tickets will be on sale in the Union and will also be available from Student Senators. Among Sedaka’s “hit records’’ are, “Oh Carol”, “Run, Samson, Run”, “Breaking us is Hard to do”, Happy Birthday”, “I go ape” and of course his current hit, “Let’s go Steady Again”. Ordinarily the job of securing the talent for Spring Weekend has been accepted by the Junior Class, however in the most recent past the Student Union Organization has assumed this role at the request of the Junior Class. This year the Junior Class again de­ cided to accept the job of signing the enter­ tainment, but when unable to do so they again put the task into the hands of the Student Union Organization. When the prob­ lem came to light just recently a committee was hastily formed to find the needed talent. The organizations involved are The N ew Hampshire, The Granite, Student Senate, WMDR-FM, The Inter Fraternity Council, Pan Hellenic Society, Young Democrats, Young Republicans, Young Americans for Neil Sedaka-Man Of Many Talents Freedom, The Outing Club, Men’s and Wo­ People find many different Dedicated as he was to classi­ more than a year, they’d haunt­ men’s Inter-Domitory Councils, Mask and ways to relax during the re­ cal music, Neil was also experi­ ed one of the largest music hearsal breaks in a television menting now and then with publishing outfits in the busi­ Dagger, and the Student Union Organiza­ or recording studio—a cup of popular tunes.
