Of course, Homecoming is one
of the most exciting events of any year, but this one was a special
one. Perhaps Howard's capture of the Choctaws' "victory torch" made
MIssissippi College's defeat possible. A flaming "H" on the football
field and another on the mountain gave an added glow to the buzzing
campus, busy with decorations and floats.
Pi Kappa Phi fraternity, first place and Delta Sigma Phi, second
place Delta Zeta sorority, first place, and Beta Sigma Omicron, second
place; Freshman Class float, first place, and Pharmacy Division, second
place claimed some of the trophies, while Flo Taylor took the Homecoming
Queen title. Forming the rest of her triumphant court were Ann Boyton,
Anita Funderburke, Suzanne Gibbs, Betty Jo Turrittin, Sammie Hughey,
Lindal Fletcher, Haroldine Johnson, Myra Martin, and Alice Herring. |
