At the stroke of twelve, the homecomers were whisked away from the enchantment of the Island back to reality, and the 1959 Homecoming was over. Enchanted Island Homecoming enthusiasm mo unted Friday afternoon when the band and twirlers led the Homecoming parade. Following the band was the float representing an en- chanted island occupied by the five queen candidates. Next came the players and the cheering students. Elated Bulldog fans were well rewarded by the action packed game with Arthur. The final 26-O score was proclaimed by the victory shouts of the Bement spectators. S . Excitement prevailed Thursday evening as Homecoming activities were touched off by the shouts of hopeful fans gathered a- t round the bonfire at the footballfield. From here students snake danced their way through the streets of Bement while spirits soared and voices grew hoarse. 1 s .1 'T' During the halftime of the game, the band marched smartly down the east side of the football field and stood at attention. All eyes turned toward the center of the arch formed by the band instruments. Then slowly, amid cheers, an Enchanted Island moved through the arch. Under a palm tree sat five beaming queen candidates: Pat Scott, Ann Wilkin- son, Penny Pope, Peggy Westray and Martha Hinton.
