A stunt program in the morning aroused much enthusiasm over the impending football game with our rival, Chatsworth. This interest, along with the fact that the day was bright and sunny, brought many oi the alumni and football fans out to Hahn's field. To the rat-a-tat-tat of the drums, the grand procession of floats for Homecoming paraded past the judges. First in line came Roger Leiser as drum major. Next were Grandma and Grandpa fBetty Roll and Jimmie Ginterb followed by several more grade school groups. Then, seeming to spring from some forty-niner's camp, came a typical cov- ered wagon drawn by a horse and mule, with Ma, Pa, Grandma, and the dog. Heavily loaded with barrels, kettles, and pans, it lumbered on to win first place for the seniors. Although this was the first and last float the seniors had had, it maintained the senior tradition by winning a prize. Quietly, the next float seemed to creep upon us. Two doctors, with nurses and assistants, were operating upon Chatsworth with saws, hammers, and cleavers. This hospital scene of the freshmen won them second place. Amidst the splashing of paddlers, the juniors' rowboat came into view, followed closely by the angling fisherman of the sophomores. Last, but not least, came the high school band. During the half, the high school girls snake-danced up and down the field forming letters. The game was quite one-sided, but in the last three minutes, a thrilling ninety-seven yard run for a touchdown by Cullom took the sting out of Chatsworth's victory. f E ' N .. x 'N P, . ,,,, , Ll- T:
