Indian Summer Queen reigns over Homecoming with court Once again Homecoming started off with the selection of the court. George Serrill was the announcer at the assembly. The freshman prin- cesses were Julie Kern and Nancy Gianotti; sophomores, Cathy Mar- shall and Lois Pothetes; juniors, Anne Gianotti and Heather Don- nelly; and seniors, Carrie Westen- haver and DeeDee Miller. Company sang The Fools Rush In, and the Fifties Dance Club jitterbugged and fox trotted with great energy. The spotlight was stolen by Nick Pothetes and Rick Peters who join- ed in on the sideline. During the midmorning breaks the classes held competition to raise the school's spirit for the Friday night game. The freshmen had a tricycle race around the Com- mons which the seniors won. A balloon bust was put on by the sophomores and the freshmen burst ahead to win. A pie-eating contest followed which the sponsoring jun- iors slopped ahead to win. The freshmen's hotsauce-filled pie never did get finished. At the end of the week the court reassembled. The Homecom- ing crown was placed on Carrie Westenhaver, who was escorted by Brad Castonguay. On Friday night the car rally rumbled through town exploding with spirited yells. Marty Kalnin, Lannie Instenes, and Jean Turner received first prize for their entry. Their van, disguised as a covered wagon, was labeled The Pioneer Hearse. The Friday night game played against the Oregon City Pioneers was a big victory for the Pacers. Final score: 44-6. The following morning the sen- iors put on a Homecoming Brunch in the cafeteria, which close to 250 people attended with their families. Saturday night topped the week with the Indian Summer Homecom- ing dance. Vesuvius, a band of five, was on hand to provide the music for over 100 couples.

New twist to fall productions: student directs, produces play . . And I want two teeth about here . . exclaims Pat Long in the Adam and Eve scene of A Company of Wayward Saints. Pat played the part of the serpent and in this scene was attempting to explain his version of the per- fect snake. This year's fall plays consisted of a major student- directed play and a series of one- act plays. A Company of Wayward Saints was the major fall play. This was the second successful play at Lake- ridge which has been student di- rected, produced, and cast. Months of hard work and preparation by director Lori Fenger and the en- tire cast made for an outstanding production. The first week of December brought Three for the Price of One. The five one-act plays were directed and produced by Mr. Ben Vose and the acting workshop class. The one acts included Touch the Bluebird's Song, No Snakes in This Grass, Game, Deputy for Broken Bow, and Where Have All the Lightning Bugs Gone? 28 Fall Plays
