SHOWING EXCELLENT FORM, junior Perry Bean scrambles to finish his pie during the pie-eating contest. Nlitchell's second Homecoming was highlighted by a variety of Saturday afternoon activities on November 21, from 12 o'clock noon to 3:30 p.m. For hungry par- ticipants and spectators, Cabinet provided hot dogs, potato chips, and soft drinks for the price of thirty- five cents. Class competition supplied the impetus for the var- ious events, which included a vigorous tug-of-war, a pyramid-building contest, and a barrel race with vol- unteers who alternately rolled and rode in barrels. To add to the excitement, there was a girls' speed- away game, which pitted the brawny senior team against the tough and rugged junior-sophomore coali- tion, and a messy but nutritious pie-eating contest.
