Homecoming Weekend A Big Success Homecoming Weekend. What a weekend, to say the least. Starting with a dance, based on the fifties, the weekend concluded with the traditional home- coming queen crowning and dance. In between was a concert, including Chubby Checker and the Happenings, and a very exciting homecoming soccer game, with St. Louis University. After the two concerts and a 1-0 victory over the Billikens, the dance couldn't have been anything but fantastic, especially for Vivian Arnold. Viv was crowned the homecoming queen from the six upper-class finalists. The dance was decorated by all of the hall residents, who participated in a wall-decorator contest.
