QUEEN MUFF—Martha "Muff" Yankey, Wichita senior, smiles following her coronation as the 1965 Homecoming queen. Miss Yankey, who represented Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority, was crowned by Kansas Governor William H. Avery and University Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe during halftime ceremonies at Saturday's game.
"Hawk Heritage" Wins Hill Prize
"Cro-Magnon Hawk" slowly sucumbed to the winds of time (one night's wind, to be exact) by Saturday morning, but not before he and five other completely mechanized figures had captured the Grand Prize trophy for homecoming decorations for Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall.
This year's winning display reviewed an evolutionary struggle between the Jayhawk and Wildcat from the Paleozoic era through modern times in three scenes. Narrated by a two-minute soundtrack.
The first scene depicted "Cro-Magnon Hawk" bashing "Sabertoothed Wildeat" with a club in their final conflict at the dawn of creation. In the background another Hawk appeared within a prehistoric replica of Fraser Hall called "Kave U."
In the following scene a mounted "Sir Hawkelot" periodically gouged "The Black Knight" with his lance. (By the way, the Black Knight's name was Sir Silo of Castle Burntbarn from the Udderland.)
The final scene showed a Jayhawk running over a Wildcat on a football field, the modern field of struggle.
The display ended with an ultraviolet starburst coming out of a chickenwire and napkin Campanile that spelled out "Welcome Alums."
Another men's scholarship hall captured the runner-up Grand Prize, as Stephenson Hall's "Reign of Terror" showed a guillotine scene in which the Wildcat was continually separated from its head. Graves of other Wildcats from 1956 to 1964 appeared in the foreground.
Beta Sigma Psi placed first among fraternities with its "Spirit of '65," showing three Jayhawk patriots marching through a battle scene with drum, fife, and flag.

Bob Dole at KU For Youth's Ideas
By Irvana Keagy
He said he wants to "spend the day learning about young people." He said he will visit, talk and
"Politicians are always talking about how the country is in the hands of the young people. If we really believe that, we should find out what it is that they want," Robert Dole, U.S. Congressman from Russell, said yesterday.
DOLE, who arrived here last night from Washington, is visiting KU today as part of a five-day tour of six Kansas college campuses.
listen to young people and see what they are thinking.
"This will be a repeat performance. We did it in 1961 on the same type of program. We hoped to make it an annual event," but he said Congress had adjourned late the past few years, which made a week's tour away from the capitol difficult.
Activities planned for Dole throughout the day include several 20-minute lectures in political science classes, a press conference at 3:30 p.m. in Flint Hall and a question and answer forum at 5 p.m. at McCollum Hall. These events are open to all students.
Four Weeks, 700 Miles-A Queen At Last
By Judy McGhee
KU's Homecoming queen and attendants, who traveled 700 miles last week, are at last able to relax after four weeks of competition.
MARTHA "MUFF" YANKEY,
Wichita senior, was crowned
queen of the 1965-66 Homecoming
festivities at halftime of the
KU-K-State football game
Saturday.
Governor William H. Avery presented the traditional red velvet cape and the crown to Miss Yankee. Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe then gave her a bouquet of red roses. Each attendant received white chrysanthemums.
THREE ANGEL FLIGHT members, Diane Steed, Hutchinson junior; Kathryn McKee, Topeka junior; and Judy Tietz; Shawnee Mission sophomore; carried the flowers onto the field.
Student body president, Leo Schrey, Leavenworth senior, and All-Student Council chairman Michael McNally, Bartlesville, Okla. junior, escorted Governor Avery and Chancellor Wescoe. They both kissed the queen after she had been presented with her crown and robe.
ARMY CADET COLONEL Delbert Moore, Topeka senior, escorted Miss Yankey before and after the crowning ceremony. Miss Strayer was escorted by Navy Midshipman Commander Virgil Young, St. Joseph, Mo., senior, and Miss Slider was escorted by Air Force Cadet Colonel Terry Oldham, Bethel, senior.
After the ceremony the queen and her attendants were driven around the field. A Model A Ford led the procession. Governor Avery and Chancellor Wescoe rode in the rumble seat.
Jim Pitts, Wichita senior, and Interfraternity Council president
drove the queen's car next in the procession.
RONALD RARDIN, Leawood senior, president of the Association of University Residence Halls drove the princesses.
After the game the queen and attendants were driven to the Kansas Union for a reception. They were presented at the intermission of the Robert Goulet concert and were given silver bowls with inscriptions in blue enamel inlay. Miss Yankey gave a short speech and announced the winners of the Homecoming decoration competition.
MISS YANKEY SAID she was "happily surprised" when she was announced as queen.
Miss Strayer said, "Everything
"It was fortunate that the game was so good and we had such good seats. We didn't have that much of a chance to think about who would be chosen queen," she said.
was a lot of fun and we met many interesting people when we traveled."
The three coed's appeared on five television stations and were interviewed twice on a Wichita radio station, KFH, last week.
"We were asked questions like when would the queen be announced, how were we selected, and how did we feel not knowing who was queen," said Miss Strayer.
"WE ANSWERED the last one by saying it was suspenseful, but it was nice because everyone was treated the same."
"We had a ball but I'm really relieved it's all over," she added. "The organization of the whole program was terrific. We didn't have to worry about anything."
Miss Slider said, "Being a finalist was a wonderful experience and will probably be the highlight of my college career."
DOLE WILL also be at the Information Booth on Jayhawk Blvd. during the 10-minute intervals between classes today to answer any questions the students might have. Also planned for the Congressman is a Student Leaders' Coffee at 4 p.m. at the Kappa Sigma fraternity house. Dole, a former KU student, was a member of the KU chapter of Kappa Sigma in 1941-43.
Dole said topics for speeches throughout the day include reaportionment, Johnson administration legislation, parties and pressure groups and what the Republican party stands for.
Dole's visit is being sponsored by the KU-Collegiate Young Republicans, and is co-sponsored by the All Student Council Hosting and Hospitality Committee and the Association of University Residence Halls.
TONIGHT DOLE will leave KU to attend a Kansas State Farm Bureau Banquet in Topeka.
Throughout the week, Dole will visit Washburn University, Kansas State University, Kansas Wesleyan University and Marymount College in Salina, and Fort Hays State College.
