HOMECOMING Homecoming activities started off this year on Thursday evening, October 21, 1948. The Snake dance was the fir st event of the evening, after which the band played and we heard speeches from former athletes from Turtle Lake High School, members of the faculty, and members of the present football squad. After the speeches the huge bonfire was lighted and around it we had a Pep fest in which the cheerleaders and faculty members participated in leading the yells. On Friday afternoon we had our parade of floats led by the band. The three prize-winning floats were: first, Red and White: second, .Tunior Class: and third, the Sophomore Class. Friday night was the big gaxne. We played New Auburn and defeated them 57-7. The band gave field maneuvers at the half. The events of the evening ended with the dance. At 11:00 the queen, whose identity had been kept secret until that time, was crowned by the football captain, Clarence Colburn. The candidates for queen were, Margie Hart, Elaine Lahti, Thelma Lee, Sylvia Merle and Lillian Ruff. The queen for the 1948 Homecoming was Margie Hart. The grand march was led by the queen and her escort, Gihnore Goulet. We all considered our Homecoming very successful this year. A large ma- jority of the student body and members of the aluznni attended and everyone had a good time.
