“And then the rains came .. .”
could very well be the title for
any story dealing with CHS
Homecoming for 1963.
It wouldn’t have been so bad
if it had been raining all day,
but instead, the day began bright
and sunny with Just a few small,
insignificant clouds, which piled
themselves together and conspir
ed to dump their very wet con
tents on South Broad Street at
exactly 4:35 last Friday after
noon.
From the time of their dismis-
sla at noon until 4:30 the indus
trious CHS’ers were busy dec
orating everything from the goal
posts of Wilder Stadium to the
Transportation Club's bus, using
everything from crepe paper to
miniature steam engines.
Somehow everything was
ready; and all the cars, spon
sors ,b4|<kl members, and Miss
By DISHIE DELANY
CHS candidates were in line and
ready to go by 4:30.
Need I say more? You all know
what happened! At 4:35—just as
the last entry of the parade had
entered South Broad—the deluge
came!
For those of you who didn’t
get to see the parade line up
before the cloudburst, here it is:
The Student Council car led the
line, followed by the Red Devil
Band, which was followed by
Sammy Smith, the crown-bearer,
and the three Miss CHS finalists,
Patsy Henderson, Sandra Hug
gins, and Connie Simmons. Next
came the cheerleaders, who In
cluded in addition to the regu
lars Julia Sadler, Brenda Watts,
Francis Robbins, and Irene Hen
derson, substitutes Dianne Pitts,
Kathy Smith, Sue O’Dell, and
Andi Stroud.
Then there were the cars of
the girls sponsored by senior
football players. These included
Mary Jane Addison, sponsored
by Billy Shields; Dianne Asbill,
Jack McKittrick; Sister Blalock,
John Paul McKee; Nancy Stump,
Harold Culbertson; Mary Ellen
Cornwall, Bruce Dixon; Mary
Nettles, Bobby Haskins; Kathy
Rimer, Shelton Rimer; Linda
Rogers, William Woody; Kathy
Salter, William Adair; Martha
White, Marion Freeman; Fran
ces Wilkie, Billy Trammell; and
Irene Vaughan, Phil Rogers.
Following the sponsors were
the cars for the officers of va
rious clubs and organizations.
They included the Future Home
makers of America, the Journal
ism Club, the Future Business
Leaders of America, the Nation
al Honor Society, the Chem-Bi-
Phi-Science Club, the Block C
Club float, the Transportation
Club, the Beta Club, the Junior
Classical League, the Sentinel
staff members, and the Trans-
portation Club bus.
Despite the rain which showed
little sign of abating even as dusk
fell, the homecoming canteen
was held in the gym. At the can
teen Patsy Henderson was
crowned Miss CHS.
The game with Newberry,
which was called off Friday, was
played Monday night, and the
half-time show originally plan
ned for Friday was given then.
As the CHS band played “Ma
ria’’ the senior sponsors, Miss
CHS, Patsy Henderson, and her
attendants, Sandra Huggins and
Connie Simmons, strolled onto
the field.
NHS INDUCTION
Last Thursday the National
Honor Society held its annual
