Homecoming Mode Special Homecoming means different things. Buying mums for dates. spending sleepless nights working on floats. trying to sing at six in the morning. a big date and a much welcomed day away from classes. Preparing for open houses, rambling for queen candidates and watching for the football game this year in a new dust- bowl kept the UW student involved with this special weekend. Delta Delta Delta sorority received top honors at the Iron Skull Sing and captured the overall Sweepstakes Award by singing the Wagoner Lad. Kappa Sigma won first in the men's division with De Animals is Cominf' lsappa Sigma took the outstanding float award. Sigma Nu's and Chi Omega's hard work and inguenity rewarded them with outstanding floats also. The SAE's added a special traditional touch to the parade with the usual mini-skirts and hairy legs. Homecoming provided a chance for students to show parents the life of the student. But most importantly. Homecoming means something dif- ferent for each person. Kappas' won in the sing and Wyoming beat New Mexico. -MBYK EBKGI' John Henberg 'Thu . NSS., to r , 'ef ' 2-1 ACliviTiGS

Dr. Jean Messer, head of the department of ac- counting, plans his work for the day. Messer Lcruds UW Students Dr. Jean F. Messer, head of the accounting department, received the G. D. Humphrey Award in 1967. I'm very proud and humble because it is such an outstanding award, Messer said. The award was established in 1964 by the Board of Trustees in honor of Humphrey's re- tirement from UW, having been president for 19 years. The president's advisory committee selects the faculty member who will receive the annual award. Messer commented on the caliber of UW students, I can't help but feel that the stu- dents are generally better qualified and more capable. Dr. Messer, who received the G.D. Humphery Award in 1967, for outstanding work at the Uni- versity believes that the students here are of out- standing caliber and are very capable.
