y Homecoming Adds Excitement to Life Nothing better shows Georgia Tech ' s rich heritage of tradition than Homecoming. It is more than a game. It is alumni old and young, parents and friends, and, of course, nearly every Tech student swept up by the flurry of activity, celebrating all the wonder- ful memories and expectations this campus brings. Over the years, little has changed in the way we celebrate — display building and the nationally famous Ramblin ' Reck Parade are still the cornerstones of the an- nual affair. Long hours and hard work go into making a successful Homecoming. Participating in the various mid-week contests, welding together some semblance of a reck that might ramble a bit, pomping all night Homecoming Thursday just to get a colorful display that may impress the alumni — they are all traditions of Homecoming. And when you grab your date and head for the game, the hard work seems worthwhile. The game? Oh, we lost. To Duke. 38-24. TOP. LEFT TO RIGHT The tough Mini-500 traditionally has a large turnout of excited alumni and students, cheering on their favorite teams. The Alpha Gams com- plete the pomping of their colorful display. BOTTOM, LEFT TO RIGHT: The Interfraternity Council sponsored Ramblin ' Gamblin ' Night on the Town to fit into the Roaring Twenties theme while also raising money for the Leukemia Foundation. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) again won top honors for their ingenious wreck.
