No arrests or citations for underage drinking were issued by the Alcohol Law Enforcement officers at the party. Springfest organizer Liz Cass, Hender son Residence College governor, said Sunday that the success of this year's concert is a good sign for Springfests to come.

I think most of the policemen even enjoyed themselves." Cleanup took about two hours, she said, and Raleigh Street was opened for traffic about 15 minutes after the concert ended. Also, the Society of Environmentally Concerned Students picked up aluminum cans, glass bottles and paper for recycling. "I was really pleased with the way everyone cooperated and how HRC helped things run so smoothly," Cass said. "It allowed me to enjoy myself during the concert, knowing that people were doing their jobs." :v:vS:-x: ;v K 111 - v -", X x ' v mm N 4 uWiuu...miUM.,.ium.i-M..iMwyu.u.,.i,iii.,i.
