While the rest of the world fidgeted uncomfort- ably with thoughts of Korea . . . and laughed at the business-like humor of Dragon-Net, Butler stu- dents worked themselves into the annual frenzied revelry called homecoming. Homecoming . . . parades and football, trophies and singing, bonfires and speeches, greased pole and tug of war ... a week end of alums, dancing, carousing ... a week end of everything but sleep. The decoration of house and float, though sched- uled nearly a year ahead, was completed a few seconds before judging . . and most of the work was done, as always, the night before. The actual work on homecoming finery took but a few short hours ... the rest of the time was spent in spying on the other organizations, helping out with the work of the pin-girl ' s sorority, relaxing with a coke, or finding tools. The headache began on the Mon- day following when the clean-up committee took over. Indiana weather threatened to double-cross the whole program. The rain-maker ' s timing was per- fect ... no water for two months, but a deluge was scheduled for October 25 ... to make the sit- uation more muddled, the state fire marshall and Governor Craig proclaimed an emergency and the torch-light parade and bonfire were cancelled. But we won the game . . . our alums came home ... we had our dance . . . Homecoming, that spirit of gaiety, welcome and good times was not altered by the draught, Korea, Dragon-Net, and or Gov- ernor Craig.
