The former Penn Staters were off on their individual experiences elaborating on the home coming theme. Posters, banners, and lawn displays all expressed in some size, shape or form their sponsor's interpretation of the theme. One of the highlights of the Home coming was the selection of the Home coming queen. From a field of 105 ap plicants, 25 semi-finalists were chosen. Then, a panel of six faculty and admin istration judges selected six finalists-* The final decision was made by the foot ball team. At a Friday night pre-game pep.'"rally, the name of the 1965 Home coming queen was revealed. She is Sue Hawthorn, a fourth term Education major from Butler, Pennsylvania. Before the game on Saturday, the queen was escorted onto the field by the U.G.A. president, who presented her to her subjects. .. During the game, Penn State's Blue Band presented a "Salute to Hum",, hon oring Dr. Hummel Fishburn, a member of the Penn State staff for forty years.
