The Rebs did attain sort of an un-victory October 22 in the annual clash with Northside which resulted in a 7-up score. Pre-game activities began a week early when Rebel team members returned from Texarkana and discovered that their cars had been egged. Bear paws led up to the au- ditorium and uncomplimentary remarks had been scrawled in red paint on the school and marquee. ln retaliation, red and blue paint was found at Northside and Rebs stickers mysteriously appeared on Northsiders' cars. The spirit of revenge continued as Southsiders mercilessly hung a huge teddy bear during the pep rally...police patrolled Gary and JROTC members guarded both parking lots with walkie-talkies...Grizzly fans sped by Southside singing Northside's fight song.
