94th Homecoming Boosts On A monstrous hornef is assembled by the Kappa Sigs, whose title for their house decorations was Clip the Hornet's Wings . Adiusfing styrofoam blocks, Elsiann Quell puts the finishing touches on the Ichabod igloo which was a part of the Phi house decorations. MMQW 20 The 1958 Homecoming lasted only two days, but endless hours went into the preparations making the celebration one of the most successful in years. The theme was back to the campusll with house decorations replacing floats, a candlelight drive inaug- urated to direct visitors around the campus to view the decorations, and open house in all departments. The Homecoming weekend officially began at 8 a.m. Friday morning. But for the sorority and fraternity houses, the weekend began long before then. Prepara- tions were started shortly after school opened in Sept- ember. And before the decorations were completed, nights of little sleep, days of little rest, and hurried meals were the order while a mass of wood, napkins, paint, and wire was transformed into attractive displays. There were still last minute details to be attended to when the actual festivities got underway Friday morn- ing. With classes cancelled, the decorations were rush- Cynthia Gibeson and Judy Sticher Crightl cast their ballots in the first all school election for a Homecom- ing queen. fr .
