On October 22, forestry students took a day ofT from classes for Garb Day, a test of traditional logging skills. Brightly garbed students spent the day high climbing, chopping, single and double bucking, log tossing and log rolling. The foresters found that it takes more than scientific know-how to climb a tree the fastest, toss a log the farthest, or keep from falling off a slippery log into the icy waters of Frosh F ond. The crowning of King Ole and his queen at the annual Logger ' s Brawl capped the day ' s strenuous events. For the sec- ond vear, Gordon Iverson amassed the highest number of points throughout the day to reign as King Ole. The Garb Day queen is selected from candidates who climb trees and chop and roll logs along with the foresters while maintain- ing a bright smile and vivacious person- ality. Dee Buckland, a member of .Mpha Chi Omega sorority, wore the crown this year. Other honors went to Mike Welling, King Ole runner-up and winner of the Best Sophomore Award, and to Mike Blum, winner of the Best Freshman Award.

Homecoming began in the early fall when big plans were inaugurated in the committees and living groups. But the excitement really started with the se- lection of Louise Henry as Homecom- ing Queen. The selection of the pretty English literature senior and her court, Sue Longwood, Judi Monti, Pamela Jean Sage and Sherry Schlegel, was the sign that Homecoming was only a few days away. Final preparations were made and finishing touches put on the signs, then the real thing began. Fri- day ' s sign viewing, serpentine and rally drew a large crowd of alumns, students and interested spectators. Ian Flem- ing ' s Goldfinger seemed to spark a great surge of creativity as houses vied for honors. First place went to Theta Xi, men ' s inanimate, Zeta Beta Tau, men ' s animate. Alpha Chi Omega, women ' s inanimate and Alpha Epsilon Phi, women ' s animate. Saturday brought the game and a wonderful change in the Huskies. They won 28-21 over the Oregon State Beavers, generating en- thusiasm and spirit which was carried over into the dances held that night. The students ' Homecoming Dance, Fhght ' 65, was a great success and so was the Glenn Yarbrough concert that preceded it. Held in Edmundson Pavilion, the concert had certain draw- backs in acoustics and atmosphere, but Yarbrough was no disappointment. With his smooth style, he helped high- light another successful Homecoming.
