Centennial Celebration Coke turned 100 last May and the Grambling State University Marching Band participated in the colossal birthday party. The GSU unit marched in the “Centennial Celebration Parade,” the last event in the week-long extravaganza. Held May 7-10 in Atlanta, the celebration drew over 14,000 Coca-Cola bottlers from throughout the world. The grand parade fea- tured 30 bands and 30 floats in the 100-unit procession. The caravan began on Mar- ietta Street, marched down Peachtree and West Peachtree and concluded on North Avenue adjacent to Coke headquarters. Paperback Exchange Band marches in Coke parade. As part of National Library Week, the A.E. Lewis Memorial Library held its an- nual paperback book exchange in the lobby of the research facility. There students were able to exchange their old paperbacks for others bearing different titles. Students look over selection of paperback books. The library has an extensive collection of catalogued paperbacks that cover a variety of different subjects. This April 8th activity was followed by an April 9-10th book-give-away.
