All Pitch In To Make ’65 Music by the Don Adams Orchestra climaxed the magic of Homecoming. Homecoming '65 was the us- ual combination of hard work, ex- citement and nostalgia which go to make this tradition a high point of the year for the students, faculty and alumni. Planning for the big event be- gan weeks in advance, but most of the actual work was done in the week preceding the big day. Freshmen and seniors alike spent many long hours struggling with decorations, gathering wood for the mammoth fire or re- hearsing and re-rehearsing for the Variety Show. Their labor paid off on the weekend of October 24, as the St. Bede Homecoming was a smashing success. Decorations, including a forty foot Bruin foot- ball player, overcame high winds and threatening weather. The car- cade, Saturday night, a long wind- ing affair which threaded through LaSalle, Peru and Spring Valley, Tim Sterling's football spoof got a lot of laughs at the Variety Show. was acclaimed as the best yet, while the pep rally and bonfire boosted spirits for Sunday’s game. Making use of on-campus talent, the Variety Show proved to be one of Father Placid's fin- est efforts, after which the '‘Glow” provided a chance for the alumni to get together again. Spirits ran high on Sunday, as an impressive Bruin Squad decked a determined Little Flower team 25-6. Old grads were busy looking for ex-class- mates and students were wrapped up in the excitement of the day, but all found time for the dinner sponsored by the Mothers’ Club after the game. Don Adams Orchestra put the finishing touches to Homecom- ing '65 at the dance Sunday night. And amid the orchids, the pretty girls and the soft music, every- one had a great time.
