An Invitation
To Homecoming
Each year Homecoming brings
large numbers of alumni back to the
campus, and each year reunion with
the friends of college days makes
Homecoming a wonderful time.
You are urged to return early,
register early, and attend the events
of Homecoming week end. There is
the play, given three nights that all
alumni may see it. There is the pa-rade
on Saturday morning, with the
clever floats designed by students,
the alumni luncheon, the football
game, and the alumni reunion aft-erwards.
At night the Homecoming
queen will reign over the dance. The
college band gives a concert on Sun-day
afternoon. All this has been
planned to give the alumni a royal
welcome.
The Administration, Faculty,
Alumni Council, and Student Body
want you to be with us, and we will
do all in our power to make this a
memorable occasion.

President of the University
