The power and determination of T.U. ' s team makes itself evident throughout the hard but well-played homecoming game. Alums Welcomed With Wide Variety Of Homecoming Displays For weeks before the day arrives, in hushed and hurried tones, the Greeks on campus prepare for their homecoming displays. Hours at the house are spent stuffing chicken wire, cutting, revising and building . . . And suddenly it ' s the night before, and Broadway is alive with students hard at work, as each display takes shape. 5:00 a.m. and one would think all of Tulane is still settled snuggly in bed, but everywhere people administer the well-guarded secret . . . And eagerly they await the judges ' arrival . . . A sticky rug for an icky bug . . . Gone with the Wind . . . Bees a la Moat . . . Welcome Alumns. Broadway is dressed in full array. . . The game is played in summer heat, but the sun is shining. Half-time sees the presentation of the campus court as each girl smiles, waving excitedly to both unfamiliar and familiar faces in the crowd. At last the Homecoming Queen is crowned for 1963 . . . That night all Tulane finds itself dancing and laughing in the crowded ballroom of the Jung Hotel. Once again the court is presented and the dream begins to fade. As the clock strikes one, the dream has disappeared and all return to campus — until next year. Tucker Couvillion takes great pleasure in pre- senting Dianne Potin, the reigning queen, to her subjects at the annual Homecoming Dance. XI
