30 Lambda Chi Alpha-Zeta Tau Alpha take footbalU Eighteen floats participate in the annual parade Every women,s organization was allowed to nominate a candidate to represent their group. The girls were in- terviewed by a panel of three judges who narrowed the field of nine finalists. The field was narrowed further to a queen and four attendants by an all campus election by the male students. Cheryl Brooks reigned as queen while Marcia Schmidt, Penny Brown, Pattsy Ross and Cathy Lindsey served as her court. The battle of the sexes came to ISU as the committee sponsored co-ed touch football. Paired by their own choice, the groups met head to head on Mark's Field. When the mud and blood cleared, Lambda Chi Alpha and Zeta Tau Alpha stumbled off the field victorious. Even as the rain poured off and on throughout the morning, parade par- ticipants started lining-up at 5 a.m. Every available hand was needed While the floats went from a simple design on paper to a finished product.

Crowds greet the t7 3 parade The umbrellas whxch Imed the entire parade route were as colorful as the floats. The largest parade in Indiana and the largest student organized parade in the nation, the annual Blue and White Day Parade ttfloated down Wabash Avenue. In its 56th year, the parade has become the highlight of all of Homecominghs events to both the University and the Terre Haute Com- munity. The organizations began their designs as soon as the committee an- nounced the theme. Some groups, such as Chi Omega sorority have been in- volved in float construction throughout the 56 years of the parade as opposed to Sigma Chi Sigma fraternity who entered for the first time. As the months turned into weeks and days and hours and minutes, the committee and the organizations labored day and night until the last second before the parade marshals started the procession. Though Streisandhs ttDontt Rain on My Parade, proved hopeless as the rain poured, the Parade went on as scheduled and was received by spectators three and four deep lining Wabash Avenue. Leading the parade was Grand Marshal, Ronald McDonald followed closely by ISU President Alan C. Spectators stop at nothing in order to view the paradeesome even cuddled under plastic. Alpha Eta Rho, honorary aviation fraternity, captured first place in the men 's division. Sycamore yearbooks entry featured Associate Editor DeIIa Averitt and Business Manager Joe Hessx'on. 32
