The parade was a big success and the best Kanab has seen in a long time, but many of the boys and girls nearly froze as they rode some of the floats. The Homecoming Queen and her attendants, the girls on the F H A float, and those on the Lariette float had it about the worst. They were dressed in formats and short outfits or costumes. The Queen, Judy Lewis, reigned majestically, with her first attendant, Nanell Glazier, and second attendant, Pearl Ann Brown. Prizes were given for the best floats and these were won by the Senior class, receiving 515; the Seventh Grade, $10; and the F H A , $5. Most of the classes participated and a few of the towns busnnesses also entered floats. Although we lost the football game to Milford that day, everyone had fun at the dance that night. We all hope that next year will see the Cowboys winning the Homecoming game and that we will have an even better parade than this year!

A senior majoring in physics, he reoeivedi an associate, of science degree from the College of Southern Utah in 1957.

As a residence hall officer, he help direct activities of all men living xn campus and work closely with school administrat- ors. - Sundays Tribune George N. Adams, son of Mrs. Pearl Adams of Kanab, was featured in an article, in Sunday's Salt Lake Tribune. Lack of space prevents our running the article in full but it told of his background and work in taxidermy, with the following short item dated from Kanab; George N. Adams of Kanab began building his taxidermy when he was 10, hanging lifelike birds, mice, and lizards on the living room walls. His mother, Mrs. Pearl Adams, 74, says her son was a quiet, studious boy who would rather collect animals than kick a football. As the word spread of his teenage taxidermy skills, game hunters would bring young George their specimens to mount. Mr. Adams probably can credit much of his success as a taxidermist to his mother, who spent many patient years living in the atmosphere o fa museum. One day she returned home to find three dead mountain lions on her kitchen floor. After high school graduation, he formed a partnership with a Kanab taxidermist. At 19, he left Kanab for New York City, where he worked in the studios of James L.
