The first Vigilante Parade, held in 1924, was the brainchild of Principal A. J. Roberts in an attempt to divert students from traditional “subversive” spring traditions. These included an annual “senior-junior fight,” which often resulted in serious injuries. With the help of both students and faculty, the historical parade has enjoyed decades of success, creating its own history. For instance, in 1939, the Parade served as primary entertainment for visiting Prince Olaf and Princess Martha of Norway. -Source
