Homecoming
Homecoming 1971, entitled "Arizona MardiGras"
is still five months away but the members o! the
University Relations and Homecoming committees
have been busy planning the annual event, ~ccording
to Gary Cruz and Janet Jones Homecoming co­chairmen.
.. "Many . chan~es ?J"e in ~he workin~." Cruz said,
such as cons1denng havmg th<! football game at
night." Dr. Norman Johansen committee member
made the suggestion, said Cr~, because "this would
allow a more leisurely pace for the Saturday activit­ies.
"We could then nave the Homecoming parade
in the afternoon, and could change the awards acti­vity
from Friday night to Saturday afternoon," Johan­sen
said. "We might also get more alumni to attend
the award activity if it were held Saturday afternoon,
as some of them have to travel long distances and
could not possibly make the usual Friday evening
awards."
Another major change being discussed is whether
there will be a Homecoming parade this year or not
Cruz said, "Janet and 1 have had a good respons~
from the Chamber of Commerce merchants saying
they would be willing to contribute to the parade "
said Cruz. "We also think if we keep the cost 'of
floats low (maybe $100 per float) many merchants
would be willing to sponsor floats."
The committee felt that student response would be
good on contributing time and effort if they knew they
had monetary sponsorship for floats or if they had low
maximum costs on floats. accordi;1e to Cruz.
"Having many bands participate in the Homecoming
parade was also considered by the committee," Cruz
said, "but we decided that it would not be essential
for a successful parade. We decided that Hand Vay
was to be kept as a separate function."
"Tentative actiVltles are planned :for Sunday," said
Cruz. "There may be a Cultural Open House in
the Creative Arts Building featuring a string quartet,
an art and ceramic display, a short play and the
choir and madrigals."
"The Sunday activities might ~so inclu.jie a break­fast
in the Student Union on the South Campus and
tours of the new campus will also be conducted,"
Cruz Sll.id.
