and let's review and preVieW
the two biggest weekends OF
the school year. Homecom,
ing! Probably right now
sleeping a good "a hours is
tops on your list of Il want
to-" but the parade will be in
a few hours and it will be
time to cheer your float to
a much-desired victory. To
days schedule also includes
the AriZona-Kansas game.
Good luck, Wildcats. Last
night is undoubtedly a blur
OF making last minute flow
erS and adding paint to &
tremendous project. 1t was
so much work, but so much
fun, wasn't it? Also among
last nights memories is the
wonderful music of Les
Brown and the croWning of
the Homecoming Queen.
Next weekend won't re-
quire as much preparation
but it's sure to be just as
great. It's Arizona's turn to
beat Tempe and carloads Of
us will go to that school, to
watch the Wildcats in action.
Last weekend's game with
Texas Western Miners might
have had a heartbreaking
score, but the tremendous
touchdown made in the first
quarter when Mccormick ran
81 yards in the Wildcats first
scoring play created excite
menr that lasted the entire
game. The plane from Tenn
pc that buZZed the stadium
dropping leaflets also added
to the fun. Printed on the
leaflets was "The university
has an academic function, but
in Tempe it's known as No
gales Junction. Beat the u
again. Compliments of ASC. "
Too bad the Sun Devils had.
