Bono, McLennan Preside Over Homecoming Festivities The sky was the limit for school and class spirit as the Brickies ral- lied round their team for the bas- ketball homecoming game played against Valparaiso. On the eve of the game juniors and sophomores draped the lobby and corridors with posters bearing victory calls and class slogans. On game day the Seniors decked them- selves in class colors and added their own contributions to the hall- ways. Hobart Spirit reached its peak at the last hour pep session on Se- nior Spirit Day. During the session the winner of the cutest legs contest held between the basketball players was announced. Voted player with the “loveliest” legs was Senior Mike McLennan. Paula Freeville crowned the ’69 basketball Homecoming queen Tina Bono to reign over the game’s fes- tivities. Members of the queen’s court were Ellen Pope, Senior, es- corted by Giampi Gallarante, and Sandy Longacre, sophomore, es- corted by Don Erickson. The Senior candidate’s escort was Hobart’s AFS student from Italy. Tina appeared with her court and escort Harry Kneifel at the after- game dance held in the gym. The entertainment was provided by the Haints from 10 to 11 p.m. Far left — Tears of joy overtake junior Tina Bono as she is crowned basketball Homecoming queen. She is escorted by Harry Kneifel.
