Queen Joan and King Mitch were joined by their attendants; Scott and Sandy, Sheila and Dave, Carolyn and Jim, and Pat and Daryl. The homecoming festivities began with Tues- day as hat and gum day. Wednesday was the 'tps day, Thrusday was dress-up day, and Friday was purple and gold day. Thursday night was skit night highlighted by the crowning of the royalty. Skits were performed by various classes and groups, and a pyramid contest was held and won by the nineth grade class. After the ceremonies were completed at the gym, the group traveled down to the bon-fire which was lead by the cheerleaders and featured the burning of the Wildcat. Friday afternoon the student body gathered at the gym for a pep meeting. Students followed the band and royalty down-town for the announce- ment of the window winners (9th grade won 1st place), and the recognition of the senior football players. The football game was played on the local field against Woodbury Central. The Trojans fell short on the scoreboard side but played a fine game in spite of the score. The game was followed by the dance with mu- sic provided by Genocide . The class of '30 was honored following the game at the school. « JL fovth.ill Boys ruli CWlITy . CuEBOLT

- - MUSIC MAN------ Harold Hill is a traveling salesman who cannot read music or play any instrument, but he is the hottest instrumental salesman traveling the Mid-West in 1912. Professor Hill arrives in River City, Iowa, on the Rock Island and during his one week stay convinces the towns- people that they need a big boy's band. His motives are dishonest but, while fooling his customers, he changes a dull town into a singing and dancing community. He has no difficulty in selling them the instruments and fancy uniforms for the band, but, when a disbeliever ques- tions his method of teaching music, Harold is not too suc- cessful in selling what he calls the think system of learn- ing music. Harold has completely charmed all the ladies, who have complete faith in him. However, this naive faith, especially that of the beautiful town librarian, Marian, subtly changes him from a scheming con-man into a reliable citizen.
