rr October 12, 1985 — Last night was the homecoming game. We played Marcos de Niza and demolished them 40 to 27. During halftime, the homecoming queen candidates, Susie Gerace, Valerie Rubio, and Kellie Thur- ston, were escorted down the field by Rick James, Mike Nache, and Vince Otstot. The sky lit up with Homecoming ’85” in a fireworks display as Vince and Valerie were announced Homecoming Royalty 1985. Valerie told me later that it felt so good to be waving to all of the people in the stands! Dress up days preceeded the homecoming game. Wednesday, the juniors proved themselves the most ready for college on Colle- giate Day. Thursday, the sopho- mores reminded us that they were all still kids at heart by bringing the most Disneyland souvenirs on Dis- ney Day. Finally, the seniors came through by wearing more blue and silver than any other class on Fri- day. Tonight, my date took me to the new Hilton for dinner where we saw many of our friends. Student Council went all out to decorate the Student Center. They even rolled out the red carpet! Silver balloons and red and black streamers were everywhere. Val- erie and Vince danced the spot- light dance to Forever”, the theme song. After my date took me home I couldn't stop thinking about the best homecoming yet. Design by Diane Osgood.
