6 Heavy Rain Spoils Parade; Floats Fade Out Although the Homecoming theme was Tame The Tigers, it should have been Stop The Rain. Never before has the weatherman been so accurate, when he predicted 100% chance of rain on October 7. Thirteen floats were scheduled to participate, but due to the rain several dropped out. Art Club won first prize of fifty dollars, Science Club won second place of thirty dollars, and Lettermen ' s Club won third prize of twenty dollars. The rain did not spoil Homecoming week completely. On Tuesday at seven o ' clock a bonfire was held at Wilson Park honoring the football players accompanied by Red Pepper members. After the bonfire, the football players, Red Peppers, and band members enjoyed hot chocolate and cookies. Other events to celebrate Homecoming week included the presentation of the court and the play GODSPELL, a color day, a pep rally Friday morning and a dance after the football game. Even though only twenty-two fans endured the rain during the game, the cafeteria was packed with students anxious to release their frustration. The band Allspice performed quite well. Several clubs sold buttons, gimmicks, and shakers to accent the week. Red Peppers sold a pin designed as a charging Warrior.
