Tuesday night in the school's cafeteria Miss Lucy Tarver, a senior of 12-2 homeroom, Jessie Holliman sponsor, was crowned "Miss Homecoming" while Miss Althea Jean Arnold, a straight "A" student for the first six weeks and and honor student from the time she entered the primary grades up until now worked very hard to win this honor which was won on a financial basis.

Hats off to Mrs. Carrie Dabney for working so hard for her little granddaughter, Paulette Benton, a member of grad 7-1, Mrs. Dorris B. Bell sponsor and Mrs. Quessie Arnold for working so hard for her daughter Althea Jean Arnold, a member of 9-1, R. O. Alderman sponsor. A financial report will follow.

Wednesday, Trojans' Day at the Carver Heights High School, a cordial invitation to all former Trojans to attend the activities was presented. Beginning at 7:30 P.M. Wednesday a street parade started from Dabney Elementary School, around East street, and around the same routine to Pine; and then to the Carver Heights Subdivision.

Thursday, beginning at 4 P.M. a street parade will start from the corner of Pine and Lake streets to Canal, Magnolia, up to the old Buick Place. The parade will hit Main Street at the first downtown traffic light by Larry's Service Station and will go East to East Street.

AT 8:15 P.M. the Homecoming Game will begin between the Fighting Gophers of Melbourne and the Mighty Trojans of the Carver Heights High School. This promises to be a game of excitement, so plan to come early and pledge your support to the Trojans.

SPECIAL NOTICE
A victory dance will be held Thursday night after the Homecoming game at the Elks' Rest on Mike Street, featuring "John Bailey" and his Rock N' Roll Boys. You're welcome to attend.
