Even though registration didn’t date back to ’68, two alumni were registered from the class of ’95. Activity fairly made the campus hum in the annual get-to-gether. Ruling over the weekend activities was vivacious Queen Connie Coon and her court. Dances, a barbecue, the newly reorganized band, an 800-man white shirt card section, and even the presentation of a live Benny Beaver mascot kept the weekend’s activities (lowing at a rapid rate.

IT TOOK NOISE of an air raid siren for these Tri Dells and Theta Xi’« to win these first place trophies. Blue Key, in cooperation with Thanes, reactivated the traditional noise parade of past years. Floats carrying every noise-making device, from harmonicas to fog horns, comprised the mile-long procession. Competition was the keynote of the event with each group anticipating a trophy as reward for deafening decibels. Townspeople thronged the sidewalks to witness the almost forgotten display heralding the homecoming football game. PI KAPS and PI Pills try for variety with their noise machinery. F1JIS DRAW APPLAUSE by adding entertainment to the parade. LAMBDA CHI ALPHA and WALDO HALL drew numbers at a rally dance to pair their noise talents. 25
