5 kg W 'fe' its Eg 1 '24 if i 'QQ asf' Royal float in the Horrecoming parade-King Ronnie Daughdrill, Queen Alexis Busby 'Homecoming Day Takes the Scene- Visitors to our 1959 Homecoming were warmly welcomed in six languages. Home- coming activities started Friday afternoon, October 23 at assembly, where Superinten- dent R. S. Simpson addressed the students and visitors. He then introduced Mrs. Louise Quin, Miss Mary Gordon, Mr. Don Pichitono, and Mr. Aubrey Ford, high school instructors who saluted the guests in Latin, Spanish, Russian, French, and German respectively. A skit presented by speech students gave a peek into the future lives of some of our well known school personalities. At the close of assembly, visitors were invited by Princi- pal Percy Reeves for a social hour in the lounge and a tour of the building. The afternoon parade, which followed the established route of all school parades through the business district of our town, was led by the Tiger band and consisted of approximately twenty-five student planned and decorated units. On Friday night at 7:45, the Homecom ing Court was presented to the spectators at Tiger Stadium. The band played as Queen Alexis Busby and King Ronnie Daughdrill walked through the aisle formed by the court attendants and onto the playing field where they were crowned and declared monarchs of the 1959 Homecoming by Mr. Reeves ln the game that followed the corona tion ceremonies, the McComb Tigers, appar- ently headed for a hard-earned victory, .sud- denly found themselves trying to hold a Hattiesburg Tiger what had no intention of losing. Hattiesburg pushed across two touch- downs in the final quarter to edge McCor.'.b 13-12. Disappointed as we were at our abrupt defeat, our hard work and excitement came to a happy climax at the dance following the game, and Homecoming 1959 became another cherished memory.
