A Stroll Down Memory Lane was the theme for Homecoming 1981. The tremen- dous effort put into the planning and orga- nization of the coronation assembly was well worth it. Homecoming was exception- al. The atmosphere was that of hushed ex- citement.-john Orlando and Kathleen Har- rigan, this year's host and hostess, wel- comed the student body and shared some thoughts on Homecoming. Before the fina- lists were brought out, Michelle Colvin sang Won't Last A Day Without You . The host and hostess described the contribu- tions to the school made by each of the girls and their escorts as they took their seats. The excitement grew as Rick Lindstrandt performed a song that he himself had writ- ten. And then . . . the princesses were slowly announced. One by one they were escorted through the arch and to their place in the court. There they were presented with a rose and a crown. The bleachers were silent as Mariner High School awaited the name of their queen. Kim Corrigan . . . the perfect choice. Taking the arm of her escort, Pat Hebert, she made her way to the reserved thrown. The crown bearers, Anne Wendt P av' I v - and Patric O'Brien, proudly brought her the crown. Emotion welled up inside many in the audience as well as in the court. The coro'- nation assembly was concluded with a duet by Stephanie Strom and james Cowan who sang Endless Love. After the ceremony a reception was held in the commons. People gathered to disucss the highlights of the assembly, take part in the refreshments, and to congratulate the 1981 court. Homecoming . . . a huge suc- cess. X -1. ff re .1 , if s iw 4 Atl TE. i It At., In N. et .it Xl 2. . xy ' , xx 4' Lam uf.. , , 15
