KC By ЕЗ B Tradition triumphs Homecoming's durability was put to the test since many students felt spirit lor homecoming was fading. This theory Was proved wrong as mos! students displayed enthusiasm for the week's events. Festivities kicked of” with an- nouncement ol king and queen can- didates and progressed through the week with slave auctions, hush days, a dress-up day, and the crowning of Stacy Bartz and Joe Gibbons as homecoming royalty. At the Friday morning pep assembly athletic teams put on their traditional skits, two of which showed the athletes’ carnivorous tendencies. First, the boys’ cross-country team blended up cold beans, ice cream, katsup, prune juice, and live grasshoppers and drank it to the disgust of many. Then, Troy Nesbitt shocked large numbers of students when he stood amongst fellow foot- ball players and bit the head off a live carp. Nesbitt compared, “It was sort of like biting into 'Freshen up' gum. Excitement peaked as the football team rolled over sixth ranked Cedar Falls 17-13. Captain Bill Beavers sighted enthusiasm, preparation, and the desire to go out and win” as important aspects contributing to the victory. Student Council sponsored the dance, “Rock n' Roll High School, following the game. Dance coor- dinator Lisa DesEnfants exclaimed,” Ihe music was great, the decora- tions went over well, and I think mosi people found it a nice way to end homecoming.” Uppe r left: HOLD STILL.
