This years Mom and Dads day tOct. 6i was really a huge success. T wo hundred people were expected, but a record seven hundred moms, dads, and friends turned out for the big day. The oHieial beginning was the football game at Haertel Field. It was an unforgettable game! Carroll gridders trampled Northland College 62-0. This score added a little sun- shine to the cold, bleak day. During the half, dads and some grand-dads of the football players were presented. The freshmen took off their beloved beanies and buried them in a coffin carried by stalwart sophomores. After the game, there was a general campus open house. All buildings were open and V oorhees Dorm featured a coffee hour. At6:00 P.M. the traditional Mom and Dads day buffet supper was held in the gym. After this wonderful meal, an equally wonderful variety show was presented. Mr. and Mrs. Herman Waespi were presented with an automobile robe as a prize for coming the longest distance e St. Louis, Mo. Prizes go to Peg Dalzell and Tom Guy, co-chairmen, for the most successful Mom and Dads day in 26 years.
