'M :ark fans: 9-in even ts A warm, sunny, autumn day marked by the arrival of thousands of alumni and visitors brought Homecoming to Iowa State the weekend of Oct. 10. The full slate of activities began Friday evening with a general migration of students and alums to the college Armory for the annual Pep Barbeque, this year based on a Picnic theme. Highlighting entertaimnent at the barbeque was the presentation of Iowa State's 1958 Homecoming queen, Marcie Christian, and her attendants, Marilyn Burnap and Marysue Kritzman. Members of Singers serenaded the lovely royalty as the coronation took place. Immediately following the barbeque the spirited Triumph March began. Hundreds of students mingled with parade entries on the torchlight march from Beardshear Hall to the VVRA parking lot. Enthusiasm reached its peak at the Pep Rally where a tra- ditional bonfire was lighted from torches carried in the cross-campus march. HOMECOMING QUEEN Marcie Christian smiles happily from her throne atop a convertible during her appearance at the Homecoming half-time ceremonies. Q3 CY, IOWA STATE'S MASCOT, arouses some enthusiasm at Homecoming's Pep Barbeque.
