(= F am Snow and music went hand in hand to the S.U.B. Christmas Ball. Whether we lived by the noisy din of the juke box or enjoyed quiet hours in front of the women’s dormitory, we loved every minute of it, and came back for more. Although the social aspect of our existance was not of prime importance, it was cer- tainly not an object of neglect. “Friends and com- ra des true” were to be found in each nook and cranny of the campus, and we took every opportunity to form strong ties that would last through the years. “Though the years to come may part us,” as our Alma Mater so aptly phrased it, our hearts will always remain true to Indiana State.

Or and On Pomp and pageantry, as well as determined compe- tition, also formed an important part of our lives around the time of Homecoming. Two Homecoming Queens wrote their very lovely page of campus his- tory by tying for this honor the first time for such a tie in the contest of charm and beauty. Members of organizations donned strikingly simi- lar costumes and threw their vocal ability into a wholehearted effort to cheer the Sycamores on to victory and, of course, to win a first place trophy in the yell contest. From a Razz Convocation patterned on the drama of “1984” to the every-day task of shaving a beard, there was an element of suspence in our lives. When we felt ourselves encumbered by the daily grind, something always came along to alter our status... Crowds were enthralled by the regal splendor of the Homecoming court. finals, for instance! Even when the going got dull, that feeling of belonging exsited to carry us through the trying times and provided a promise of better things to come. Whether we were razzing one another, paying attention to personal appearance, electing beauty queens, or just taking “grillology,” we peopled the campus with an amazing variety of activity and personality. Enthusiastic cheers led the collegians to the Homecoming game.
