FRESHMEN (Special to The Citizen) - GAINESVILLE. — Key West’s Hilary U. Albury, a- student at the University of Florida, was one of a number of upperclass- men who last’ week acted as “group leaders” to assist some 450 bewildered incoming fresh- ;men through an extensive ori- entation program. | Albury with others selected by J. Ed Price, assistant dean of students, conducted the fresh- man group assigned to him on a tour of the campus, assisted individuals in filling out sched- ules and forms and accompanied | the group to a series of lectures on. various campus activities. | Less than one-half of one per cent of the incoming freshmen failed to participate in the pro- gram of orientation, a record for freshmen attendance. Albury, whose mother lives at Key West, is a former first lieu- tenant in the quartermaster corps. For in the armed forces, the task of directing the «freshmen harked back to Army days.
