Parade Featuring Giant Balloons Showcase—They are the band which will play from 9-1 on Friday night. They are one of the top dance bands in the nation. (Photo through the courtesy of the Viking Days Committee) Soaring individuality and ex-citement in the person of Merry Clayton will help kick off Viking Days '72. With her performances of rhythm and blues and straightforward pop and anything between, the concert should be a great way to burst into the spirit of the week. Merry performs Thursday at 9 p.m. in the gymnasium providing two 45-minute sets of block-busting music. But, she is not a screamer. Rather, her voice is strong, clear and resonates with a sense of excitement. Merry Clayton She records for Ode Records, with two albums, GIMME SHELTER, released several months ago, and her latest, MERRY CLAYTON. It con-tains material by Carole King, Hilly Preston and Bill Withers. Climaxing Friday will be the appearance of Showcase as the dance band. Showcase, booked out of Chicago, is currently Sioux Falls, South Dakota 57102 booked until 1974 as one of the top dance bands in the nation. Celebration will be the theme from 9 to 1 a.m. Friday as Show-case, a band that started about two years ago in Sioux Falls, provides a two-fold enter-tainment package. They will begin their performance with two 45-minute sets of dance music, then perform an in-termission floor-show. The fburth set will close the night with dance music. Dewey Hunt, one of the most dynamic of the group, is from Aberdeen. Being the shortest of the group, he seems to grow under the spotlight, and he demands that the audience be happy. Fred Sayler, from Men-no, is the drummer and rarely gets the spotlight, but without his skills, there would really be no performance. One of the most versatile of the group is Jerry Selix, from Sioux Falls. He plays nearly all the instruments, sings, dances and is one of the most outspoken of the group. Selix says that their entertaining "provides an escape for those who come and see us. We don't drink during a performance and rarely at anytime and we do not take drugs; it would show dis-respect to the audience." Fred Sayler seemed to sum up the feelings of the group when he said, "I like to see people smile, to have a good time, no frowns. There is too much bad going around, we don't want it going around in our time . . ." "What the World Needs Now" . . . the 1972 theme for Viking Days provides a unifying force for all activities, and is ex-emplified in the parade. Satur-day afternoon at 1. To com-plement the floats which have been made by societies, dorms, and off-campus groups, giant balloons resembling those in the Gimbel's parade in Chicago will he interspersed throughout the units. Some of the balloons in-clude Mr. McGregor, Tigger, 65- foot long, Calico Cat and Heidi and Her Goats. Providing transportation for dignitaries such as Gov. Kneip, Cary Thompson, Bob Hirsch and Jim Abourezk, will be 20 Corvette convertibles. Queen from Sioux Falls Colelge, South Dakota State University, the University of South Dakota, Miss South Dakota, and the South Dakota Dairy Princess will add beauty and color to the parade. One of the most important aspects of the parade is under the direction of Dr. S. G. Froiland. He directs 35-40 facul-ty members who are devoting their afternoon to making traffic and the parade go smoothly. Dr. Froiland is personally in charge of situating each unit into its respective position. Viking Men play an important and im-mensely fun part in the Viking Day activities. October 2, 1972 Bill Peterson, President Student Association, USD Vermillion, S. D. 57069 Dear Bill, As you know, both Augustana and the University of South Dakota are based on years of tradition. Of the many traditions and rivalries that have survived, the most important, of course, is the yearly Augie-USD football game. In keeping with the traditions of the past, I hereby challenge Viking Men With grizzled, ruff beard, a mace in their hands and covered with fur—the Viking Man will be a highlight to all activities. Thursday night beware if you are shirking your duty. These warriors will be raiding the dorms to haul out anyone who is not attending the pep rally kick-off around the Ole statue. Presently, there are about 38 Viking Men and need even more — somewhere in the vicinity of 60 — let's get with it men. Viking Men will be given the material and will be able to design any type of garb they want. That should prove interesting. Viking Men will be responsible for controlling the giant balloons at the parade, to throw out miniature footballs at the parade and the game. Additionally they will be helping sell balloons the profits to go to a local charity. you, as president of the student body, to bet your pants on the outcome of the fierce battle on the football field, scheduled to occur in the year nineteen hun-dred and seventy-two on the 28th day of October. The sacrifice of the loser's pants would take place at midfield following the final blast of the referee's gun. I will look forward to seeing you at the battle. Sincerely, Gary Snow ASA President Again, at the football game they will be running around on the field with the team during warm-ups, helping the cheerleaders and generally being a thorn in the side of the opposition. Viking Varieties Entertainment and ex-citement are the key words in the 1972 Viking Days presentation of "Viking Varieties." The show offers everything from comedy to song; from the classical to the sounds of Dixie. Bringing all of the musical events together is the Augustana Brass Choir, acting as the pit orchestra. The brass is directed by Harold Krueger, with Gene White providing the special arrangements.
