An addition to the Homecoming The big weekend was first in- augurated in 1897 when alumni :\{::!':: t': came home for a football game with the Varsity. The first display contest was ap- parently held a short time after World War I but participation was limited to fraternities. IN 1937, WOMEN'S residences were allowed to enter the contest but were judged separately. Inde- pendent houses and dorms took part for the first time in 1944. That is the year the uncalcu- lating builders of the display for one sorority constructed their display in the basement and then were unable to move it out- doors because of its size.
