Show Under the direction of co-chairmen Kelly Colombo and Myrna Labrum, window displays were a new addition to the Homecoming festivities this year. These displays created by fraternity and sorority teams could be seen in various downtown stores interpreting the Homecoming theme of "No Dick No Jack, Redskins Wantum Country Back. Vote Hoyo." Adding to this new element was the taditional event of House Decorations which gave the Greeks a chance to collect a few more votes for Hoyo.With a beautiful day dawning Saturday, the Homecoming Parade wound its way down Main Street to the accompaniment of music provided by the University's Marching Band, and a collection of the top high school bands from across the state. From South Temple down to Broadway, then left to State Street, and back up to Social Hall Avenue where the parade disbanded, the mood was light, and looking at the floats everyone decided the work was worth it after all.Later in the day the Ute football team met the Denver Pioneers and when the Redskin attack was over the Pioneers had been scalped again; to the great joy of all of the returning alums the score was 49 for Utah, and 16 for Denver.Evening brought the awaited moments of the Homecoming Dance and the announcement of the winners of the events. Dancing to the music of Mel Hall and his orchestra, and listening to the mellow tones of the Mills Brothers occupied the greater portion of the evening. But the climax came when the Homecoming Queen, lovely Lucretia Wray, and her attendants Sharilyn Silvers and Christine D'Arc presented the trophies to the lucky winners. |
