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

I . Z J ■Q-- W »v- SOPH05 COURT— Grant. C, Leary. J., Good, C., Steinle, M., Miller, L. SOPHOS DANCE One of the most successful dances this year was the annual Sophos dance at which Carolyn Good of Alpha Chi Omega car- ried off top honors to become Sophos Queen. This year for the first time the 4 runners-up were selected to form the Sophos Court. The competition was highly spirited with each sorority vying to put its candidate on top. Each year the sororities put up their most appealing freshman girl to try to win the crown. The grill is plaster- ed with posters and the fraternity men are deluged with serenades. As the end of the contest draws near the pitch of excitement heightens. At last at 12:00 midnight the president of Sophos breaks through the huge paper Sophos jug with the Queen on his arm. A party held after the dance in honor of the Queen brings to an end a night long to be remembered in the life of one happy little co-ed. Poge 18
