Food will be the center of attraction for one evening during the Seventy-fifth Anniversary, when Sgt. William Kollender removes his uniform and dons an apron to prepare the Sunset barbecue at 5:30 p.m. June 6. Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary,
Kollender promises a phenomenal amount of food for a paltry 25 cents. There will be barbecued pork and ham, garnished with the famous Kollender sauce, and numerous relishes, including pickles and olives, ice cream, pie and coffee. The meal will be served under the east section of the stadium by faculty members and their wives. In case of rain the entire program will be presented there.
If the weather is fair, people will eat in the stadium, and various clubs will congregate at marked points for reunions.
Alumni To Broadcast
Entertainment will be provided by the University band, and by John Kress and his gymnasts, who will give a demonstration of tumbling and performance on the parallel bars.
Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary will broadcast the annual "alumni on the street" program over KFKU. Arrangements have been made to have interviews with different returning alumni, whose voices will be amplified over a public address system. The "Varsity Quartet" will sing after the broadcast.
Movies If It Rains
Most of the crowd will stay for the Coronado Entrada, said Leslie Waters, chairman of the entertainment committee. In case of rain, the Entrada will not be presented, but movies will be shown either in Fraser theater or in Hoch auditorium.
Tickets to the barbecue should be purchased as early as possible, to give an idea as to the number of plates to prepare. Students, faculty, townspeople, and visitors are invited to attend.
