In honor of Columbia High spirit, the
bonfire blazed brightly as it lit the
sky.

A man-size doll, created by the Art
Club and representing a Rebel foot-
ball player, was burned in effigy; as
the flames rose high, so did the spir-
its of Tiger-backers.

Participation in scheduled events
each day of Homecoming Week
showed the genuine enthusiasm and
spirit of C.H.S. students. The agenda
began on Monday with a car smash,
sponsored by Art Club. On Tuesday,
the rivalry of the classes was shown
through the creativity of the students
in making posters. Wednesday,
classes' stamina was tested in field
day. Thursday, everyone was to dress
in accordance with the theme of
"Fighting Fifties" and purple and
gold day. An extra long pep rally was
held to cheer the Tigers to victory.

The tobacco barns were open every-
day of the week for students to work
on floats. There was a mad dash
Friday to finish all floats and cars
in time to enter them in the Home-
coming parade scheduled for two
o'clock p.m.
