In a break from tradition, the Queen was announced at this time rather than during halftime ceremonies at the ballgame. An Alumni Golf Tournament was held at the Monticello Country Club which was well attended. Paul Riviere spoke at a Smorgasbord held for UAM alumni Saturday at noon, and the Chancellor hosted an Alumni Ball held at the National Guard Armory on the evening before Homecoming.

Big Win Climaxes Perfect Da The Homecoming Game turned out to be the highpoint of a lackluster year for the Boll Weevils. They walloped Ouachita Baptist University’s Tigers 41-14, to even their record at 2-2. They finished the year at 5-6. The Weevil’s offense ground out 363 yards, 140 coming from freshman tailback Kenneth Rodgers of Marvell. The win was the first against Ouachita Baptist in 13 years. OPPOSITE: It’s a lot easier to be happy when one wins big. LEFT: The headhunter made his annual appear- ance and definitely intimidated the tigers across the way. BELOW: A lovely day and Homecoming maids to match. The court consisted of (front row) Terri Lewis, Julie Hotmer, Kelly Jo Clark, Mary Margarite Fulton, Bertha Porter, (back row) Doris Jones, Queen Sandra Fife, and Cathy Clanton. Homecoming 29
