The highlight of the football season was this year's two-day Homecoming. On a wet September 26th, the parade was the kick-off. This year's parade had a new look. Instead of the mile-long string of students march- ing to town, a more-organized parade represented the school. The parade ended in an all-school pep session on the football field, The ball game with Columbus on Sat- urday provided a climax for students and alumni alike. At half time the score was tied 0-0. The band presented a half-time show depicting sports of each season. To the tune of Auld Lang Syne, queen candidates Cathy Hinkle, Sue Cox, Joann Richardson, Donna Lettellier, Barbara Somes, and janet Vifampler were escorted through an aisle formed by the band. The suspense ended when Mr. Brock announced Cathy Hinkle as the 1959 Home- coming Queen, In the fourth quarter, fate was looking over the Panthers! shoulder. Columbus scored a safety making the score 2-O. After the ball was moved to scor- ing position, Don Warnpler made a last-second grab and caught the pass that scored the only touchdown of the game. With just one second left in the game, the team quieted down long enough to score the extra point, mak- ing the score 7-2, a climax to a perfect day.
