With over 1,000 attendance and crowded as usual, the annual homecoming dance was a delightful suc- cess. Alumni returned and spirits were high. The homecoming committee, headed by Miss Eunice Mac- Murray and Mr. Richard Laughlin, was largely re- sponsible for the well-planned occasion. It was at the “Blue and White” that the winning floats of the homecoming parade were announced. Also, ISTC’s two lovely homecoming queens were presented to the festive-spirited crowd. Richly deserving of the honor bestowed upon them were Misses Dorthea Sudroff, Chi Omega, and Julie Belicacqua, Delta Gamma. They shared the crown with equal splendor and reigned over the dance with all the loveliness of a double queenship. An enjoyable time was had by all and we returned to classes the following week with mem- ories of the “Blue and White Dance” still lingering. and dances a-.. CO-CHAIRMEN: Eunice McMurray and Dick Laughlin. It was a wonderful evening with a swimming sea of familiar faces! 21

and enjoyed ; roofs EB “ERRE HAUTE Ho} fs x mee FERRE HAUTE nO pti ea Homecoming with floats Bobbing along with a giant bunny, Alpha Omicron Pi thumped out a first place trophy for their rendi- tion of “Get the Rabbit Foot Habit, Beat DePauw!” Lovely “bunny gals” dressed with appropriate rabbit ears and fluffy tails added a pleasing personality to the mobile 16 foot animal charicature. The huge bunny presented an amazing picture as it moved down the street thumping its paw and delighting small children with its size and color. Sputniks and moon rockets had nothing on Tau Kappa Epsilon as they spun to victory in their mam- moth flying saucer. Decorated with traditional blue and white, the spectacle traveled down the street towering over the crowds’ heads and throwing off strange lights and whirrings. To complete the space “space men” appeared in the cockpit missile two making the sight even more awesome and intriguing. The float’s title of “Best Team I ever Sau-cer” lent a winning touch to the entry. Parson Hall’s entry collected a first place victory in the general division. The winner was an eye- stopper in the form of a giant meat grinder to give DePauw a grinding welcome. With the clever title, “Let’s Have Tigerburgers,’ the winning structure presented an honest picture of “grinding” the oppos- ing team. In addition, a cook rode atop the grinder to “cook” the DePauw-burger, thus completing the grinding process of our opposing team.
