HOMECOMING DELTA ZETA I ALPHA DELTA PI The annual Homecoming football game was played this year on November 8 when the Bear- cats were host to Ohio University. Most organiio- tions on campus entered floats into the contest and parade sponsored by the Alumni Associa- tion. Weeks of planning, construction, and plenty of hard work preceded this day. The excitement and interest began building up the night before, as sororities and fraternities worked most of the night by spotlights to finish the floats in time. Enthusiasm was high as the floats as- sembled at Nippert Stadium for the pre-game parade although the weather was none too kind to either the floats or the crowds. On the other hand, the spirits of some organizations went to sub-zero as their floats were struck by misfortune, and unable to enter competition, before they reached the stadium. At half time the trophies for the most beautiful float were awarded to ADPi and SAE while the awards for the most humorous floats were claimed by Delta Zeta and Phi Delt. Page 14

IN MY DAY . . DAD ' S DAY One of the favorite traditions on campus is the annual Dad ' s Day. Each fall one Saturday is des- ignated Dad ' s Day and it is the custom for each student to invite his or her Dad to be his guest and to sit with him In the student ' s section at the football game in the afternoon. Special note is taken of the fathers of the members of the team playing in the game, so there is a Dad ' s Bench next to the team bench. The fathers, each wearing a number corresponding to the one on his son ' s jersey, get a coaches eye view of the game and are introduced to the crowd at half- time. A good game helps everyone ' s enthusiasm and there could be no complaint about this year ' s 50 to victory over Washington and Lee. Page 15
