I . U w o f f Wins Polish Spirit Week , .- I Q ' K Spirit Week! Whenever that work is mentioned everyone gets excited . . . That is exactly how it was the week of October 12-16, with each day unique. Punk Rock Day, Backwards Day, Hat Day, Fashion Day, and Crimson and Gold Day, were normal weekdays, changed into fun! The Homecoming parade, held on Thursday, October 15, marched down Park Avenue, and proceeded to Laurens Street Elementary. The Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps led the way, followed by the band. The parade included eight floats, clowns, and the Frivolous Faculty Follies Band. Although clubs had not been formed, Mrs. Casey's South Ai- ken Players rallied to the occa- sion and produced a float ex- claiming, All the World's a P u'- i I2 f Homecoming if Stage. The Arch de Tri- umph, created by the Frnech classes, was followed by the Senior Class cemetery. Mrs. Bodie's Creative Writing class designed a gigantic pencil with the slogan, Write To the Top. Mrs. Porter's homeroom, the only homeroom represented, displayed a field littered with Keenan Raiders' remains. Ju- niors showed class pride by dis- playing a victory wreath. Study hall students used their free time to help build the Student CounciI's dauntless Thorough- bred. Junior Varsity Cheer- leaders' Taking lt To the Top rounded out the entries. All of this spirit added to the excitement of Friday's game. ln their new crimson uniforms the band made a grand entrance before the Homecoming crowd by marching around the field.
