Year Begins With Homecoming in Focus. The theory and style of Homecoming decorations, set and molded by tradition, left little room for creativity or difference. Some creeped through only to be trampled upon or stifled by costly mistakes. The Lucey Hall balloon, days in the inflating, was burst by an accidental hammer wield. The multi-colored chalk welcome on the Hoffman Hall sidewalk approach was washed out by a sudden half-frozen rain the night before. The Xavier Hall decorations, revolutionary in style and depicting questions and thoughts all the way from Confu- cius to Joan Baez and touching on topics like the War and God was unwanted by the faculty and Senior Class. Hulk refused to be moved but at the last moment permitted visi- tors to come and see him. The mass confusion and near-bitterness was never re- solved but merely forgotten about. And although the cam- pus was bare in comparison to past extravaganzas there was something present never there before.
