The Alums Return The week end of the return of the old grad was a huge success this year due to several factors— for once the weather cooperated and it didn’t rain. The day started with a bang, with the alums pouring into town and the students fran- tically finishing floats. The parade was bigger and better than ever with the Delta Gammas and the Fijis taking honors for the best floats. Lovely Shirlie Vorous reigned over the day’s festivities and was crowned by William Guern- sey. The high point of the day came in the early afternoon when the Vandal gridders took to the field. The day was somewhat darkened when the fates took hand with the enemy, and the Van dals, though valiant, were vanquished. The eve- ning was completed with the usual dance, which was a large success and was attended by large numbers of students and alums. Sunday was comparatively quiet, with the students visiting with parents and friends and recuperating from the strenuous activities of the day before. Among the remains of the floats that were scattered around the campus were seen grumbling groups of alums, who agreed that “we were taken” at the game. Students, faculty and alums all agreed that it was a fine celebration, and that next year, without doubt, the Vandals would roll to vicrory. ae Jee ie ‘aa oe Moscow's main street was lined with interested spectators as campus, commercial, and humorous floats were prese nted, along with various bands and marching units.
