Game adds final touch Slaves, races spark sky high student spirit Do I hear twenty-five cents . . .one dollar. . . two dollars and fifty cents . . . four dollars going once! twice! SOLD! for four dollars was heard from the Mcintosh Gym as student slaves were auctioned off to begin Homecoming Week. Senior Stu Hall sold for the highest bid, twelve dol- lars and seventy-five cents to master Laura Dale. Students melted ice blocks with body heat, blistered behinds by bursting balloons, raced skateboards through pylons, and got bellyaches from the cramming crackers contest trying to win class points. Classes became rivals through the week as they fiercely fought to win the Spirit Trophy. After a vigorous struggle the aggressive Freshman Class won the extraordinary competi- tion. Homecoming Week came to a climax Friday night as 5,500 smiling, jubilant fans begin swarming the Yellow lacket stadium two hours prior to the big game. Eagerly joining in singing cheers with the yell and song leaders the excited viewers watched and screamed with anticipation as Home- coming was highlighted by the Mighty Jackets canning the Norco Cougars 42-24.
