Homecoming, a big week-end for students and alums ftlik6 is here. Corn Cobs and Tassels, pep organizations, have planned a full two-day celebration which will include rallies, house decorations, parade, Tep Queen election, and of course, the annual Homecoming dance in the coliseum Saturday night. Homecoming is an event that happens just once a year and is looked forward to by both the student body a'ld alums who will have memories of festivities from years back when they were in school. Homecoming is an all-university event which will display all the pep and enthusiasm students have for their school. With all the events and displays that have been planned, it should be a fun week-end for everyone. Festivities will officially open tonight with a huge rally at which the candidates for Pep Queen, nominated by the Tassels, will be announced. After the rally, there will be an all-campus election to name this year's Homecoming Pep Queen, who will be introduced at the dance Saturday. Voting booths will be set up in the Coliseum and the Union immediately following the rally. Also tonight will be the judging of the house decorations. Starting Saturday, activities will be the Homecoming Float parade which will begin at the Coliseum and journey through the campus and downtown. Winners of the float contest will be announced at the dance Saturday evening. Then, Saturday afternoon, the game! The traditional: freshman tug-of-war has been scheduled just prior to the game in the stadium. This year's procedure, sponsored by the Innocent Society, will be entirely new with each group on campus that has freshman beanie wearers sending rep resentatives to tug against representatives of the upper classmen. If the frosh win, they may discard their beanies permanently! Half time entertainment which includes the band marching and the presentation of last year's Pep Queen, has also been scheduled. The Homecoming dance Saturday night promises to be one of the best ever and will be highlighted by the presenta tion of the Pep Queen and the announcement of parade float winners and house decoration winners. Homecoming celebrations will end Saturday night, but the campus enthusiasm and spirit of fun and loyalty should continue for the rest of this year and every year following.

BY PAT NORDIN. .arty, party! The whirl of homecoming outshadows all so cial events of the fall season, and this proves to be one of the most exciting. Already under cover men have been coloring up the campus walks (with the rally committee and Skip Stahl hot on their trail); treasure bal loons are insuring a ticket for "EEEEach and EEEEvory Stew dant" (according to Mania Tep- pcrman who has donated ner lungs to the cause), and plotting is already under way about pil fering the effegy (bruin bear to you illiterates.) Many, many are making plans for the gala homecoming dance. Jack McDill will squire Mary Lou Beran (who finally made up her mind). For his first home coming brawl, Tom Tucker has chosen Marilyn Brewster. Natur ally, Janet Stearns and John Ayres will attend together as will Shirley Baker and Don Woods. Dick Kuhl and Jack Kcece will come out of hibernation and es cort ole grad Jody Srb and il lustrious alum Margie Sturm. A commercializing few have thrown caution to the winds and will go into business for them selves at the Italian Village Sat urday night in competition with the dance at the coliseum. Jo Moss and Don Darst, Jane Rock well and Wendy Ganger will be chief party-ers. Let's Get Started. The Sig Eps will start the day early Saturday with a breakfast dance Saturday morning. Prob able steadies Mary Kuppinger and Russ Laird, along with Tat Pischel and Tom Loisel will at tend if they can keep their eyes open. This is News: Loch Ohmond, mountain climber and world traveler, has a date! Lucky girl is June Shaberg who is dying to hear the story of his life. Backtracking to Friday night we find Allan Scofield at the Union Halloween party. Novelty of the evening will be the cham ber of horrors where all girls are guaranteed a head start with prospective Sadie Hawkins Day date. (Union, Nov. 13). Also on Friday night, the In tervarsity Christian Fellowship will be strictly spooking at their Halloween party. Mary May, had swamee. With a little more practice, Dick Lockman may be able to call some of the square dances at the Wesley Foundation deal on ag Friday. At least he has all the qualifications. Despite the abundance of parties Friday, there will no doubt be a crowd at the Delian union's Screwball party especi ally the more curious. SMALL TALK!

According to the last report from the office of the Dean of Stu dent Affairs, T. J. Thompson, students who have classes on Saturday morning will not be excused for the Homecoming festivities. Members of the U. N. .marching band, a group scheduled to head the Homecoming parade in full dress on Saturday morning, will not be excused from classes. They were allowed to miss last Saturday s classes to make the migration trip. This brings to mind a question, one which we haven't resolved as yet, of which Is more important that students be attending classes in line with the fundamental purpose of the educational institution, or that students be participating in activities (and foregoing aca demic pursuit) which will possibly generate within them additional spirit and loyalty to the Institution. It is not for us to make the answer. However, we would like to point out to the administration that the Homecoming parade has a definite and valuable promotional function for the university, not only with Lincoln people but with outstate people as well, many of whom are U.N. alums. One of the finest attractions of the parade (as it is of all university activities in which it participates) has.al ways been the Nebraska marching band. A We are firmly convinced that to deny the band the freedom M have a 100 turnout Saturday and to have this result in a parade without a full dressed band would be an unfortunate damper on the I parade. The prestige which the marching band has rightly earned 1 in its years of existence deserves to be maintained. I There Is still time for action, and we hope that further con sideration will be given to the situation, with the result that the Homecoming festivities equal, and perhaps excel, those eelebra in previous years.
