iff? E553 n si., ,...,, e :N-1 5 Homecoming festivities began with a parade meeting for the entire student body the afternoon of the Homecoming game. One of the main features was the musical number presented by the queen candidates and their attendants. The emcee for the aft- ernoon was Earl Brunberg. Other attractions were the appearances of the clowns, cheer- leaders, and the Hutchinson High School Band. v- .1 1 w X x.l?-S 5' 9 Homecoming never would have been complete without clowns! Throughout the parade meeting, parade, and bonfire the clowns made their cheerful appearances and could always be counted on to pull a few boners. The clowns were seniors who were members of the Clown Committee which was organized several weeks before Homecoming and some of them were under- classmen who acted as clowns instead of making a float or banner. ! Five senior girls were chosen as queen candidates by vote of the senior class. The entire junior-senior high school voted for one of these princesses. This vote, together with personality sheets filled out by the sen- iors and the vote of the judges decided the 1953 Homecoming Queen Mona Nordling. The sophomore and junior class each had one attendant to represent their class at Homecoming. Ruby Sander was selected by the juniors, Patricia Doring by the sopho- mores.

fiwm gbead .... The boys have come up with the flash- iest shirts you've ever seen. These pictures can't do justice to them for the colors are real jazzy. Roger Hahn wears a two-tone blue jacket style while jack Bagwell is stress- ing the bold plaid. The neat stripe down jerry Carrigans shirt adds a lot of class to the masculine modes. WOW! Cuff links too B Ull Saddles, Loungers, Bucks, and Robin Hoods own creation are the footwear for the boys. The boys always manage to come out with a new type-trying to out-rate the girls. A commitment as to the winner I would never dare to admit!

U U 0 I One great change in this years Home- coming was the appearance of the High School Band who really got into the swing of the Homecoming theme, A Tiger Cir- cus by performing as a circus band. Donned with hats of every sort, the band led the parade as they rode in a decorated circus bandwagon. Other musical units were the jolly Bohemian Orchestra and the Glencoe High School Marching Bandi .93 ! He ran into Briest, now he needs a priest and He ran into Mills, now he's in the hills. Those are two sample inscriptions from the tombstones of the junior class float which walked away with first place honors. The parade was organized by a group of seniors who worked as a committee. judging was done by several Hutchinson businessmen and a few members of the Hutchinson High School faculty. fieoatal Taking second prize was the float de- signed by the freshman class: Eaglebutg- ers-Beat 'Em and Eat 'Emu was used as the theme. Although the whole day was blessed with beautiful weather, one catastrophe for the freshmen did take place after the parade as their float caught fire.
