Homecoming History Begins In '30's by Marti Norwood Homecoming has been an annual tradition at Western Carolina College since the mid-1930's. The dominant theme then and since has been success and future progress. Homecoming in the '30*s was the year's biggest event The 400 students then enrolled celebrated with a barbeque picnic lasting most of the day, and which was attended by students, faculty, and alumni. Alumni usually planned to stay overnight in either Robertson or Moore ( the only two dormitories then in existence here), or in the home of a faculty member. The game was held in the afternoon, and the opponents always stayed for the formal dance which followed in the evening. Beanies had not yet been devised for freshmen; freshman girls were required to wear short white dresses (above the ankle!) and a big green oilcloth bow in their hair. Green was the school's color. Moore and Robertson sported decorations, but there were no floats or parades. This type of celebration lasted until approximately 1952. The theme for that year featured the dedication of two newly constructed buildings-Stillwell and Hunter Library. In 1953 Luther Hodges, then lieutenant governor of the state, was scheduled to speak as part of the Homecoming activity. In addition, Reynolds Hall was dedicated. When the traditional Homecoming parade evolved in the early 1950's, it was held in Sylva. Acquiring convertibles for the queens, student organization, and school officials was quite a burden, as was the transportation of floats from Cullowhee over the mountain to Sylva. In 1954 the Homecoming floats were asked to represent popular songs. Some of the floats and their sponsors were: Fine and Industrial Arts, 'It's in the Books"; Physical Education, "Shake, Rattle, and Roll"; Future Business Leaders of America, 'Million Dollar Baby"; Mono- ram Club, "Stout-Hearted Men"; Future teachers of America, "From Rags to Riches"; WESTERN CAROLINIAN, "River of no Return"; and the CATAMOUNT, "Backward, Turn Backward." In 1956 "Songs of the Old South" was the theme, and the floats were again asked to illustrate popular songs. This year Reid Gymnasium was opened for inspection. •Secret Desire" was the theme for 1957, when the Catamounts played host to East Carolina College. In 1958, the 70th anniversary of WCC, the theme was "Seventy Years, Mountain Style." During Homecoming 1959, Brown Cafeteria was dedicated and the Bird Administration Building, nearing completion, was opened for inspection. Although the Sylva parades up to that time were more effective than those held on campus, the motorcade returned to Cullowhee in 1960, mainly due to road construction being done between Sylva and Cullowhee. The theme was "Football, Mountain Style." and the festivities included the dedication of Bird Administration Building. In 1963 a two-hour concert by the United States Air Force Band featuring the "Singing Sergeants" highlighted Homecoming day. 1964 was Western Carolina College's Diamond Anniversary and the informal theme was "March of the Beanie." Last year, "Physical Expansion and Educational Development equals Greater Opportunity" was the theme. At that time Leatherwood and Helder Dormitories and Dodson Cafeteria were under construction. This year the theme will be "Foundation of Future-Loyalty, Service, and Dreams." INSIDE THE CAROLINIAN . . We get letters, letters, and more letters—in this week's record amount of Feedback.

Freshmen are to march in' the parade as stated in the Student Handbook. The order of the floats, cars, bands, etc. in the line will be planned during the next week according to Barry Steagall, vice president of the Student Body. He has directed that all units in the parade be ready to go by one o'clock. "Everything must be ready to go by one,* he said. continued on page 12 Si Zentner Will Be HC Attraction Si Zentner and his orchestra, made famous by their version of "Up a Lazy River,* will perform here during Saturday's Homecoming festivities. It was for "Up a Lazy River* that Zentner's group won a Grammy Award in the Best Performance by an Orchestra for Dancing Field, He and his 17-member orchestra will perform twice during this year's Homecoming at WCC. Featuring jazz and popular tunes, they will play in concert from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. Saturday in Reid Gym. After the game, Zentner's version of the big band sound swings with current hits until midnight. The dance will be in Reid Gym. In the I940's Zentner worked as sideman for the big namt bands of that era—those of Les Brown, Harry James, and Jimmy Dorsey. He later worked with the MGM studio Orchestra for nine years. To carry on in the big band tradition, Zentner took to the road as trombonist and leader of his own group. This is the same band that also won another Grammy for their album, "Great Bands with Great voices.* They have appeared at nightclubs and universities across the nation and toured with such names as Johnny Mathis . According to Miss Lillian Buchannan, chairman of the Lyceum Committee, the band will receive $2000 for the concert from the Lyceum Fund. The Student Senate will make up an additional $2000 for the dance. Both concert and dance will be free to students and visitors.
