mZeiOmmiOI Homecoming, the climax of much elbow-grease, was a tri- umphant day at Beloit. The homecoming convocation, the annual snake dance and bonfire on Friday were traditions that seemed extra-special this year. The great day, October 17, started with the homecoming parade led by the Queen, Fran- nie NIason, and her court. In the Queens court were Nancy Knappenberger, Bev Krueger, Bonnie Applequist, Judi Pier- son, and Nancy Smith. After this great parade the judging of house decorations was held. It was a moment for which all the sororities and fraternities had long been waiting. The Thetais with their bubbling champagne and the Phi Psi,s with their guillo- tine were top in house decorations. Highest honors for the floats went to the D.Gfs for Candyland and t0 the Betays for Slave Ship. Now on to the stadium where the Queen was crowned and winners announced in the pre-game festivities. After the crownng the game began. Beloit challenged Carroll t0 the battle and emerged Victorious. To celebrate the victory the students were given Klonday free from classes. At the close of the game guests, parents, and alums were welcomed to the various receptions held on campus. And the climax of this years big day at Beloit was the annual and always successful dance in the Field House. 12
