All coeds may Join the line of
march whether or not they are
singing. The procession will be
led by the five women holding
the highest positions in women's
activites.
The University marching band
will lead the line of march around
campus to the mall between the
League and Hill Auditorium where
a block M will be formed. The
group will proceed to the audito-
rium following the singing of the
"Yellow and Blue" and the "Star
Spangled Banner."
Seniors will wear caps and
gowns to the traditional event.
lnderclassmen will wear col-
ored hairbows to designate their
class: juniors will wear red bows,
sophomores will wear yellow,
and freshmen, green.
Each house has been assigned
a position on the program. Pre-
sentation rules state that not more
than 30 singers may participate in
any one group, no soloists may be
t ed, and no song may be over
three minutes in length.
The name lantern night origi-
nated from the fact that in early
ye ars senior women carried Japan-
, e lanterns. Juniors carried col-
ored hoops through which the
freshmen jumped. At the end of
the program, lanterns were given
to the juniors, and sophomores re-
ceived hoops from the juniors.
Thus the seniors were honored and
passed from campus life.
