One rarely stops to notice the beauty that enhances our campus. Evansville College has one of the most picturesque surroundings in this part of the mid-west. We think these scenes will show you what we mean.

The biggest event at Evansville College each year is Homecoming. The festivities this year began with a bonfire in East Side Park, and then was moved over to the Union for the Queen election and pep dance. A tricycle race was also held Friday night, with Sigma Phi Epsilon pedaling to victory. Saturday morning a series of Inter-Campus events were held on the front lawn. There was a tricycle race for women won by Alpha Omicron Pi, and a pledge balloon throwing contest, with the balloons filled with water. The annual tug-of-war between the women was won by Moore Hall. The preparation for Homecoming takes a lot of work for most of the people at E.C. Lawn displays were put up by fifteen various organizations, from Weinbach to Kentucky. Lamda Chi Alpha and Chi Omega came in first with their displays, while Kappa Pi, hon- orary art fraternity, and Alpha Omicron Pi came in a close second.
