Above: Hey, wow! Did you see that last play?! Seniors )im McCleneghen and Gregg Heckley are absorbed in the game. To their right are seniors Kevin Lee and Stan Prince. Right: Senior Claudia lohnson receives her bouquet of roses just seconds after being crowned 1975 Homecoming Queen. At first glance. Homecoming could have been classified as a flop. With gusting winds and icy cold rains, conditions weren ' t exactly ideal for one of the year ' s biggest events. Throughout Chaos Day, Mother Nature kept threatening to turn the floats into blurry, soggy messes despite efforts to convince her that homecoming was NEXT Friday. (1 know, I know, you can ' t fool Mother Nature .) In fact, it was so bad (How bad was it?) ... It was so bad that the AFS Club finally had to throw in the towel after ten people couldn ' t hold their weather balloon float down. The evening blew around snow-like drizzle and convinced the band to shed uniforms in favor of long underwear beneath jeans and jackets. The Marching Trojans shivered through the pre-game show and proved to be unstoppable with hits like Midnight Cowboy and T.S.O.P. The football team also had some fantastic hits (commonly referred to as tackles). After Homestead fumbled on the five yard line, we picked it up for the only score of the game. Our first Homecoming victory since 1970, and the first correct prediction by Pete Torrey since . . . heaven only knows! To top off this excitement, senior Claudia Johnson was crowned Queen while the cheering, clapping, and screaming rocked the stadium. She received her crown and bouquet of roses beneath umbrellas, amid tear- disguising rain. Later that evening, 400 turned out for an alumni dance, an attendance record over the previous years. Ashes, a four- piece rock band, brought the dance bugs out of the woodwork, and sweat beads out on the forehead. Anyone will tell you our homecoming was unstoppable and unbeatable. ()ust take a second glance.) 12 Homecoming
