Homecoming Traditions Declining
By CHRISTA FINLEY

Saturday when Kentucky meets
Tennessee, it will be the ninth time
the Wildcats have rought the Volunteers in a Homecoming game.
Of these games, Kentucky has
won two, lost five and tied two. '
This will be the 29th Homecoming for Kentucky. Beginning In
1928, it has won 15 of these and

lost 13. No Homecpinlng games
were played In 1943 and 1941 due
to World War II.
much of the
Since it began,
color, tradition, and enthusiasm
found in the Homecoming weekend
has been lost.
It used to be an annual affair
to celebrate Homecoming with
gigantic bonfires, pajama parades,
burning of freshmen beanies, and

torch parades.
In 1930, tome of the less modest
UK students staged a pajama and
nightgown parade through downtown Lexington. Many of the stu

dents (male that is) competed In
a beard growing contest.
A few of the more privileged
were thaved on Homecoming day
by the Homecoming
queen, who
had the distinction of being the
first woman barber at UK.
'Band memebrs, including the
band director, took over the pajama
parade in 1932. They were accompanied by aproxlmately 200
torch bearers.
In 1934 and 1933, downtown department stores competed in a
window decoration contest.
A different kind of battle took
place on the football field during
the Intermission of the 1938 game.
Kentucky's "Best Band In Dixie"
and Alabama's "Million Dollar
Band" competed In a musical

pajama parade, and the traditional
burning of freshmen beanies.
A Homecoming Carnival featuring a gymnastic troupe from the
University of Illinois was an added attraction at the 1940 Home-

coming weekend.
In 1952, the coeds stole the show
by participating in a mock football,
game, dresed in helmets, practice
jerseys, and blue jeans. Each team
had a coach, trainer, and manager.
Wetherby acted as water
boy, past President Donovan, down
marker, and Adolph Rupp, referee.
The Wildcats were cheerleaders.

Miss Achain explained the letters

He did. The letter came the

day when vc all attire ourselves in
our uncomfortable and impractical
footbest to endure a
ball game.
This year's event surpasses all
others with its 28 popularity contestants of assorted species, all dressed
in the feathers of fancy. And then
there are helium balloons, those ambiguous late permissions, an overactive Homecoming Committee, an
overactive police force, shoddy lawn
displays, and Homecoming bands
(who the hell is George Smith?).
It is a time when that fatal and
unfounded prejudice known as team
loyalty emerges and sports announcers
get excited to ecstasy. It is ideal
midsemester compensation for academic disappointment when, far from
the fever and fret of life, we can
simmer in joy until we finally become stewed. Homecoming weekend
is sufficient to give UK its deserved
title of biggest party school in the
country. Its effect is psychologically
devastating.
Even the Marching 100 exceeds itself with
and happy
sounds in
setAnd, in this
ting, lest we be overcome by an obnoxious sense of virtue, there is the
"dranking problem." There is, of
course, a practical purpose for this
otherwise offensive habit keeping
warm at the game. Imagine what
will happen" when they get those new
hard-to- p
convertible buildings with
weatherproof linings just like Mt.
Palomar. The purpose of drinking at
games will be defeated. In such a
we will have to resort to hand
jive or something. Probably or something.
Not to ignore the purpose of Homecoming itself which is, as the misnomer suggests, to give the alums a
chance to come back from the University of Life and show us how
they get out of their minds in a dignified manner.
And then if UK wins the Saturday
afternoon circus we will clap our
hands in glee and think that we will
get Wednesday off as an early Christmas gift. So the faculty turns out to
be a tribe of Indian givers.
One high school girl visited UK

print
"Nobody would wear that to a dog-- ,
fight," they told her, trying to be
helpful.
"Is a dogfight but little worse than
a style show on Stoll Field?" she retorted. "Who do you go to see, the
football players or yourselves?"
"Why, the players of course," they
replied, appalled at the "idea.
"How unjust!" she moaned. "They
don't get their chance to monopolize
the fashion show."
The cheerleaders, who are more in
the public eye than the fans, wear
socks with their shoes, and the cheers
would make a hiccup sound like an
earthquake in the Holland Tunnel.
Everyone is so conscious of his own
appearance that no one pays any
attention to anybody else. And we
reach the height, of helplessness when
we depend on SuKy to tell us what to
wear. But with a queen and several
attendants at each game, we would
have something worth going to. A
minor Homecoming every weekend.
And with special seating arrangements vvhere all are discriminated
against, it seems logical that there
should be a special section for the
faculty and one for the faculty's dates,
as well as one for members of the
local Cranberry Association. Or, advocates of birth control could sit on
the east end of the stadium and those
against it pn the west end. Adequate
representation for all separate but
equal.
But football games are not to be
underrated. With all the scuttle and
scurry in getting tickets, once you
get inside the gate you can't leave. I
remember once it began to rain and
our special section decided to leave
and listen to the radio instead. At the
gate we .met a gentleman who would
not let us out until he had confiscated
our ID cards, our union cards, our
meal tickets, and
our Zorro rings. He would

Compliment

To The Editor:
I'm sure that newspaper personnel
must frequently face the same situation teachers do. In our "profession
we usually hear from the public' only
when someone is angry or wants: a
favor from us. Otherwise, all is quiet.
I would like to be something of an
exception and write you without
either in mind. This is to compliment
you on the general quality of your
editorial page all year long. Your
editorials have almost always dealt
with significant matters and have
been well written.

To The Editor:
After tolerating the meaningless
babble emanating from SuKy's loudspeakers for almost a whole football
season, the undersigned foel obliged
to speak out. This shameful, annoying, and loudmouthed practice should
be discontinued at once, to prevent
the embarrassment of the more intelligent students when our alums
return next Saturday.
If this sigestion is not heeded,
then we suggest that SuKy be disbanded and that many more loudspeakers lw purchased to simulate a
cheering sectidn.

Students Busy With Homecoming Events

ALICE AKIN

female wears a look of determination as she stomps down to the
basement to labor on the display.
A lot of time and effort goes
into the elaborate construction of
these things and ns a result, text
books have been completely deserted for the past week.
But after all, who can study
when the chairman of Homecoming drags out the megaphone and
harshly barks, "Stuff that chicken
wire. Cut that crepe paper I"
But you ain't seen nothing yet
until you watch tonight's a.nusinjr,
festivities when the attempt Is
made to drag the gigantic construction out of the basement and
hoist it in the yard, trees, or on top
of the house.
After a few casualties, it will
probably be decided that maybe
the masculine lender could be of
some help. So, enticed by free

I had planned to slam the blf?
Homecoming Queen this week, but
due to circumstances beyond my
i control,
decided to tave it! Maybe
next time.
Well, gang, this Is it! The big
weekend is finally upon us. And
what other weekend is preceded
by so much dilipent work? Just for
fun, let's flash back and fcp what
has been going on in preparation
for the event.
Ah, there's an interesting scene
orer on sorority row. The race for
the trophiea is on and every Greek

and other goodies, the
fraternity boys are utilized and it
Is they who end up putting the
thing up.
And speaking of the boys, this
is the first year that all fraternities haven't participated in the
contest. Maybe they didn't have
enough room for another trophy.
Anyway, the ones that aren't
doing anything at all in decorating
have concentrated on making the
parties a little more fun for alums
as well as chapter members.
As a result, tomorrow morning

coffee

will be filled with various

social

functions such as jam sessions,
brunches, etc. And naturally all
elums will be honored after the

game with open houses scheduled
by both sorority and fraternity
groups.
And then tomorrow after everyone has withstood the weather at
Stoll Field and has watched the
halftlme festivities, back to the
lodges for a quick change in clothes
and then off to the Homecoming
Dance at the SUB. George Smith
and his band of renown will play.
And finally at 1 a.m.,. 10,000
sleepy eyes will blink and once
more Homecoming with all Its mixture of comedy and tragedy will
end.
Guess that's abo.ut it for the
social. picture this weekend. There's
