...that The Animals had been hired to perform for the freshmen. What is particularly amazing is that this group was chosen before it had reached the apex of its stardom and therefore before it became financially unfeasible. Saturday night, Jubilarians enjoyed a floating party, complete with band and liquid mixer, aboard a huge pleasure cruiser. Few participants remembers, or care, that for a full hour the boat never left the dock because it failed to pass Coast Guard inspection, and the "authorities" wouldn't release the floating bacchanal...
