Homecoming HOMECOMING is a time of royalty. And what is royalty without proper carriages? In answer to the vexing problem of no gold coaches, RCC students searched far and wide to find wood, wire, and wheels. Many hours were stolen from classrooms and homework. To time and material, they added imagination, paper flowers, and plenty of hard work to see that the Queen ' s par- ade was a regal affair. FIRST PLACE — in class two was the Engineers Club, Student California Teachers Association, and Kiowa- Z float. Due to lack of funds the groups went to- gether to build their float and did it all for only eighty dollars. Floats 21 PRIZE WINNER - Kappa Upsilon and Gamma Nu spent many hours decorating to take first place in class one division o f the Homecoming Parade. This is not the float as it looked in the parade but a few months after. YEAR OF THE TIGER was this year ' s theme for the Homecoming. Sigma Rho Chi and Delta Chi Delta put many hours of hard work into their float and it was one of the most colorful in the parade.

Pretty Girls HOMECOMING CROWD - There was a real scramble for good seats to watch the crowning of the new queen as well as the football game against Fullerton. Among the scramblers are Rhett Sanborn, Sandi Laputz, Rick Wolfe, and Nora Harris. Homecoming Dates FULL CALENDAR - Homecoming is a busy time, and not all of the busy-ness is concen- trated on the day of the game. Organizations sponsoring queen candidates start early to select their nominee and to plot their cam- paign strategy. All this, of course, in addition to actual construction problems. On the Thurs- day before the game, Kiowa-Z honors queen candidates at luncheon. On Friday, events be- gin with a rally in the Pit which soon becomes a parade which wends its way Downtown and to the Plaza, carrying news of the big event to alumni in the community. Friday evening comes the Big Game and the coronation of the Queen. HOMECOMING DANCE - Following the big game was the dance held in the Gym. James Agnew and his date Loretta Jones step to the music of Gene Walsh and his orchestra.
