U. eterans' day was given a new twist at Western last fall when it became a day for remember- ing not only the nation's military men, but the school's alumni as well. When students returned from their three-day holiday, the annual Home- coming festivities got under way. A combination kick-off-presentation assembly held in the auditorium that students back, gave them a preview of the week's events and presented the stars of the week, the royalty candidates and the football team. Clad in bus driver pants and hat, sporty coach jim Lounsberry got the evening off to a humorous start as he night welcomed introduced his team. Continuing the coach's humor, senior halfback-turned-emcee Dick Nicholl in- troduced the 2 5 candidates for the Royal Court and kept up a pithy patter as they paraded before their public. The next evening, election results were quickly tabulated and the nobility was announced. As one lone spotlight revealed the winners, freshman Lynn johnson, sophomore Darlene Bloom- field, junior Kathy Failor, and senior Judi Munson were elevated to Royalty. 17

hosen to rule over the pretty princesses and the Homecoming activities was senior Barbara Sia vesind, Queen Sigrid XXVI. Activities got off to a hot start again Friday night when Westernites swung into action at the annual bonfire, dur- ing which Dr. William Tomaras man- aged to get thoroughly soaked. From there they tromped across campus to Skit Night. Once again tradition was firmly upheld, as students combined jokes on drinking and sex with the Grecian theme to produce an almost authentic replica of a Greek orgy. Greeted by a misty morn, Viking fans piled out Saturday to view a damp but delightful parade of floats, freezing Grecians and sinister slave masters glid- ing down the main streets of town. Westernites next headed for Civic Field to watch an inspired Viking squad easily down their Tacoma rival, Pacific Lutheran University. The 32-to-6 vic- tory Was sparked by halfback Dick Nicholl who tallied 19 points for the home team.
