Homecoming Dance Dim lights, gay back-drops, and twin- kling stars transformed both gyms into a Half-Time Heaven at our Homecoming Dance on October 29. After a rousing game with Iefferson, won 20-O, couples were en- chanted by the magic band music of Bill Nikkel and Dennis Reitz. Many students expressed appreciation for the hard work of the Pep Club which made South's first big dance of the year a heavenly success. Sophomore Part The class of '63 held their Sophomore Party, Magic Moods, on October 14 Blue and white streamers and gay balloons added a mystic atmosphere to the dance music of Bill Nikkel's Skyliners. The lively entertainment of talented sophs, includ ing Mary Christiansen, Elmer Camady and Penny Field pantornining Honeybun from South Pacific, and a piano guitar duet by Terry Meiger and Bob Olson, received hearty approval during the evening Miss Donaldson and Mr. Brower, sophomore class sponsors, were guests of honor at the first social gathering of our newest Southern class. A gilt star and brightly colored spheres suspended high over the heads ot dancing couples add to the magic of the Sophomore Party. Laughter and gaiety, caught by the camera's lightning flash, depict the spirit ot the Homecoming Dance.

Cars began to converge upon the student parking lot as early as 8:00 A.M. on the Saturday of Rebel Roundup and our game with Thomas Jefferson. Senior Hall soon buzzed with activity as cokes and dough- nuts rapidly disappeared. Crowds lined up outside for the parade into the stadium as the game time neared. Come on, you Rebels, ye1l! screamed our bouncy cheerleaders as the procession started toward the stands. Confederate flags and shakers waved high over the heads of the student throng, and a thrill of excitement passed through the stadium like an electric shock as the spirited partisans arrived. A big question mark hung over both teams, but Southerners' con- fidence ran high. f q e stadium . or Q I Pep Club members Meredith Perry, Yvonne Fattor, Charlene Skinner and Iean Asmus serve and sample their own refreshments at the tea for sophomore girls. f L . . .

Rallies such as this one, held before football and basketball games, arouse Rebel spirit. Sophomore Tea Everything from trick riding on a uni- cycle to an all-girl sailor dance line provided a welcome to the sophomore girls at their tea, Autumn Rainbows, on Sep- tember 29. Dr. Anderson cmd Pep Club president Carol Barnes greeted the new- comers. Following the program in the auditorium, junior and senior pepsters served punch and tea sandwiches in the gym to extend a hand of friendship and hospitality typical of South.

Ml The cast sits on stage after one oi their dress rehearsals, listening to a few final pointers by Mrs. Nordstrom. Drama Club Pla The Man Who Came to Dinner, starring Harry Kisker in the role of Sheridan Whiteside, was presented on November 4 by the Drama Club. The play, a rollicking satire of Alexander Wolcott, famous lecturer, critic, and tempera- mental genius, had members of the audience literally holding their sides. Long hours and many rehearsals went into the play, which was given in a special program for drama teachers and their guests, and again in a well-attended presentation for students and parents. The long and thunderous applause attested to the dra- matic ability and fine preparation of the cast, the excellent leadership ot Mrs. Nordstrom, and the enjoyment of the audience.
