If there is critical mass of nominations, they will then be voted on via email. Challenge Chess will occur at 2:00 P.M. on April 8, 2000 on Parrish Beach. The method of challenge choice will be that the challenger chooses a category from the list (physical, naming things, skills, and so on), and a challenge will then be selected randomly from that category. You may veto if you think you will injure yourself physically. Schlock has been decided upon. "Mazes and Monsters" will be shown on video, and "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" will be shown on film. If "Gamera vs. Guiron" is obtainable from a certain store in Boston, that will be shown; otherwise, the third movie will be "The Beast of Yukka Flats". Either of these would be on video. Mr. Fairchild has taken over responsibility for Walpurgisnacht. Give him money for food, or inform him that you will be bringing food yourself. The "Welcome SWIL Specs," or possibly some other slogan, banner will be put together after Challenge Chess on April 8, 2000. We are now in possession of a white sheet of appropriate dimensions. We still need people to volunteer for various tasks; contact Mr, George. The SWIL movie presentation on April 3, 2000 will be a double feature of "Nausicaa" at 8:00 P.M. and "They Were Eleven" at 10:00. The primary occupation of Budget Committee appears to be to obtain silly hats. They cut our budget by $30: $10 less in Photocopying, and $20 less in Supplies. Publications, Movies and Speakers, and Transportation received full funding again. -------- NonSWILBusiness A proposal has been made to contact Marvin Barron before April Fools' Day next year and challenge him and his troupe of helix-stringers to a stairwell-off. The "Eye of Argon" reading occurred at 7:00 P.M. in Kohlberg on Saturday, April 1, 2000. There was a roundsing at 7:00 P.M. in the Bell Tower the following night. The College Orchestra will be performing next weekend, April 8 and 9, 2000. Mr. Blim will be showing "Simon Birch" and "Central Station" in Kohlberg 116 at 7:30 P.M., April 7, 2000. The last ten episodes of "Neon Genesis: Evangelion" were shown by Mr. Kong at 6:00 P.M. on Saturday, April 1, 2000. On April 8, 2000, Mixed Company will have a solo concert. On April 14, 2000, they will have a concert with a few other a capella groups. Monday and Tuesday of reading week, they will be hosting the Spring Jamboree; Schlock timing will be adjusted if necessary. The WB Network will be broadcasting new episodes of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel" this week, on April 4, 2000 beginning at 8:00 P.M. -------- Attendance at the April 1, 2000 Meeting of the Swarthmore Warders of Imaginative Literature Arcadia "Christina Marie Bernadette" Falcone Rebecca "Jeanette" Paul Dan "who am I? oh yeah...
