Floats Show Spirit Of Loyal Students
The Sigma Nu float, featuring a man taking a bath in a tub of steaming water, and bearing the sign "We Ain't Washed Up Yet won the first prize of $10 in the Homecoming parade Friday night.
The second prize of $8 was awarded the Kappa Alpha Thetas for their "prayerful" float. Several be-nightied co-eds ready with their hair on earlers, knelt at the sides of a bed. A sign on the truck read, "God Bless America-K.U., too, please."
Sigma Alpha Epsilon won the third prize of $7, and several other floats were given prizes of $5 each. They were: Delta Tau Delta, fourth; Delta Sigma Pi, fifth; Kappa Sigma, sixth; Kappa Kappa Gamma, seventh; Sigma Phi Epsilon, eight; Beta Theta Pi, ninth; Acacia, tenth; and Alpha Micron Pi, eleventh.
On one float, a football player was kneeling by his bedside, while a sign above him read, "Pleeze Lord. Win for Gwinn."
Another float carried the idea of David and Goliath. The Oklahoma team was personified in Goliath, well over six feet, who towered over a small but determined David.
The Homecoming queen and her attendants, and the 1800 football team rode in open top cars near the beginning of the parade.
The musical organizations who marched in the parade were: The University band, the Lawrence high school band, the Haskell Institute band, and the American Legion Drum and Bugle Corps.
Grads Hear Preview Plans Of 75th Fete
Thirty-three University of Kansas graduates, representing 29 graduating classes between 1940 and 1887, met yesterday to discuss tentative plans for the University's Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration next June.
Dyche museum will have its formal reopening during the celebration, although the definite time has not yet been set, T. H. Marshall, professor of chemical engineering and chairman of the operating committee, told the class representatives.
The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce is cooperating to the fullest extent, said Professor Mashall, and attractive displays from all downtown business houses are assured.
"According to the counting system used by some eastern colleges," Marshall said, "this year would be our eighty-sixth anniversary. We are counting from the day the doors of the University of Kansas were opened to students."
Other committee heads are U. G. Mitchell, professor of mathematics, head of the general supervision committee; H. G. Ingham, director of the extension division, head of the Commencement committee.
Sub-committee division heads are Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni association, publicity and reunion plans; Leslie Waters, assistant professor of economics, entertainment; Ray Wright, housing, transportation, registration and medical service; D. M. Swarthout,
dean of the School of Fine Arts, muscial arrangements; Fred Montgomery, secretary of the bureau of visual instruction, exhibits and decorations; Bert Nash, professor of education, speakers, program and events, general sessions, and the Seventy-fifth Anniversary dinner.
seventy-thirty. "We have only one idea to sell," said Professor Marshall; "that we have more to see in our celebration than any one person could possibly look at."

Myrna Loy and Melvyn Douglas in "Third Finger, Left Hand" Sunday thru Wednesday, at the Granada. He told the wide world he was her husband . . . and he wasn't. He brought in his trunks and moved right in . . . it's a fistful of fun, when Mel teaches Myrna the happy scrappy way — that no girl is happy while her third finger, left hand is naked.
