The River Raft Race sponsored by the men of Tech's Delta Sigma Phi fraternity proved to be one of the most successful of all Tech-related events held during the 1969-70 school year. Publicity of the event was far-reach- ing, and entries came from such remote states as Tennessee and Alabama, with even the MGM studios of Hollywood en- tering a wooden raft to publicize their movie How the West Was Won. The Raft Race was a mammoth under- taking, as the following data easily proves: with over 10,000 people in at- tendance, the 1400 rafts began their voyage down the Chattahoochee at Morgan Fall's Dam, ended at the Lovett School -in the course of doing so hav- ing, tied up traffic on the Paces Ferry Bridge for the longest length of time on record. Entries were in three divisions: tug- boats -the smallest - those of Battle- ship size, and the largest being known as commercials, or true liferafts. Among the winners was Georgia Tech's own Sigma Chi fraternity in the Commercial division.
