Homecoming Eve Festivities The Homecoming eve festivities be- gan with a pep rally at Tom Lee Park. The combined efforts of the Memphis State Band, the cheerleaders, and the pom- pon girls proved to boost the crowd ' s en- thusiasm. During the evening, Sigma Chi, Alpha Delta Pi, Pi Kappa Alpha, Delta Gamma, and Kappa Alpha were awarded prizes for their entries in the car decorating contest, sponsored by the Blue Chippers. After the awards were announced, a nostalgic sampling of mu- sic from the fifties and sixties was pro- vided by R.B. and the Gang. As the pep rally drew to a close, a burst of fireworks signalled the beginning of the Mississippi River Boat Dance. The Andy Child ' s Band furnished a popular fare of entertainment and kept the dance floor packed with energetic Tiger fans. R.B. and the Gang, Just one of the many at- tractions on the river front.
