ISTOP ■ U6LY B -WAR Parents ' Weekend. May 14-16, 1965. got off to a sunny start with Governor ' s Day. Signs of a changing world were visible as protest marchers carried plac- ards proclaiming war on poverty, not on people, and a rude make-shift band disnipted the well-planned efforts of the Naval ROTC band. Governor Daniel J. Evans was on hand to review the var- ious ROTC units as they went through their paces and received awards. Spec- tators were treated to the first Gover- nor ' s Day appearance of a new special battalion unit. Parents were provided the opportunity of touring the campus by bus. The de- partments of Architecture, Fisheries, Political Science and Medical Engineer- ing held open house for the touring parents. A discussion of Student Free- dom: A Changing Viewpoint, started the round of events on Saturday. At noon President Charles E. Odegaard spoke to a sell-out luncheon of parents, students and faculty. For those who tired of discussion, there were crew races, a tennis tournament and a football scrimmage to provide vis- ual excitement. Another eye catcher. Aqua Fantasies, was presented by Silver Fish and Husky Swim Club, and the tra- ditional Songfest was held in Mcany Auditorium. On Stage, University of Washington, provided parents with a glimpse of campus groups and selecti ons from the best productions of the year.
