An unofficially planned breakfast at Uncle John's was a filling success” for the thirty Polars that attended. Excitement was much in evidence as breakfast was gobbled and everyone scurried back to North for one of the year's most exciting days. Classes went on with time moving very slowly. First hour ran out and the auditorium was on! Cheerleading, M.C.'s, Polarcttes, Mr. Sovell, Mr. DcLapp, and Princesses were all a part of the scene. DeLappitate, DeLappitate, DeLappitate the Cards” was part of the faculty's skit to help boost the spirit of Homecoming. The alumni was well represented at the auditorium and the game. The auditorium ended with the traditional playing of loyalty. As classes went on, so did Homecoming. A little drizzle at the game failed to dampen the spirits of all those attending or to stop the Polars. Cut the Cards” was the slogan and that is exactly what the Polars did. The final score; North, forty-three; Marshall-University, six. Halftime was one of the biggest features of Homecoming, as the band started with a fanfare and marched across the field and ended up with an ”N” formation for the introduction of the Queen candidates and the crowning of Queen Linda Cilreath. Homecoming festivities went on as the attendance was good for listening and dancing to the music of the Purple Haze . As the last moments of the dance arrived so did the last moments of another successful Homecoming at North.
