Master of ceremonies, Irv To- bocman will also introduce the Vaughn Shadows, who will en- tertain with vocal renditions in- three-part, harmony. The coed trio was featured at Varsity Night this fall. Since Black Cat Ball is not for- mal, "dressy" dresses and heels will be the ordgr of the evening. t* f A POTOGRAPHER will be on hand throughout the evening to take pictures of couples attending the dance. The theme for this year's homecoming dance was selected because it fell in with the Hal- loween season and because the committee felt that the sound of the name put the annual ball on a more informal level. In evidence on all publicity, the Black Cat himself is the official symbol of the dance. He is pic- tured wearing a' University helmet and carrying a football. Thus the Halloween theme is tied in with the football spirit, iii for HOMECOMING DON'T FORGET!
