Before they could receive the ball for the first game, the sophomore team prepared the frosh squad by setting aside two days tor them to come to practice dressed as comic characters. At the same time, they required them to come prepared to furnish upper- squad-men with cigarettes and gum, and to learn the Alma Mater for sing- ing upon request. Besides this, they were required to buy a green, beanie from the Sophomore team and to wear it at Wednesday assemblies throughout the year. After passing this supreme test. the freshman team was given the ball to carry to the goal line. . ,-fa-,-. -1' - -.7---reg,-V. 1.

omecoming S.O.C. celebrated its annual homecoming October 28, l950. The welcome mat was put out for all returning players of former years, who were honored by a ban- quet at Susanne Homes Hall. That night, the Cal Aggies eeK- ed out an eight to six victory over the Southern Oregon Red Raiders Despite a heavy downpour of rain, there was a big crowd of loyal rooters to cheer our team. Immediately after the game, a dance was held in the Churchill Hall auditorium. The theme of the dance was Autumn Serenade. Ralph lBaldyJ Foster, captain of the football team, crowned Jane Tucker, Homecoming Queen of l95O. She was presented with a small gold football with her name engraved upon it. Captain of the day's activities was Mary Jane Farr. Co-captains were: Ardis Warren, parade and pre-game bonfire, both of which were called off because of rain, Jack Bolton and Don DeBernardi, alumni banquet, A.W.S. president, A.M.S. president, and class presi- dents, the Homecoming Dance. Many of the returning players stayed on the S.O.C. field longer than just the planned Homecoming Weekend. This was due to unex- pectedly heavy rains which flooded most of the roads leading from Ashland. F, r' A f if . -'-ul-2 1' .4 --A' l lll':l if rv Q, ' ill' r , I3ifg.g,A '
