Qn a warm October night before the Millikan- Jordan game, a procession of dancing maidens, gymnastic jesters, and jolly jugglers heralded the arrival of the 1977 Homecoming Court. Renais- sance-clad courtiers carried the Queen and Sen- ior Princesses Janet Hansted and Gretchen Houser on sedan chairs, with Junior Princess Lynn Williams and Sophomore Princess Ruby Grzelachowski close behind. Upon arrival at the royal platform, the court was greeted by escorts Dan Thompson, Doug Marty, Barry Bartlett, Darren Shaw, and Craig Perez. 1976 Queen Barbara Mesa performed the crowning honors. While planning a future in court stenography, Karen participated in Ski Club and Socii, an off- campus welfare club.

School Transport Looking Good Omigosh, I'm late! Mom, will you give me a ride to school? Millikan students have not been known for their pride when it came to wheels for school. The popular motto was Beg, Borrow, or Steel Cnever, never with an al. The majority made it somehow, evidenced by the overpopulation in wheels and a short- age of adequate housing. Over 950 registered cars, motorcycles, trucks, and the newest thing in involuntary suicide - mopeds - were majority munched, stacked, squeezed and ordered to inhale before entering the north and south parking lots. A new sport was introduced in the mornings for the lazies and luckies who Grove. it was called ''There's-no-more-parking-spaces-so- quick-Murph's-not-looking-Duck-into-this-c ute-car-beddy-bye-withstripes-Shoot-there goes-the-bell. The supervising hawks were Pat Murphy and Dave Frew. Campus commuters flocked to school in assorted styles. Jogging, bicycling, skate- boarding, thumbing and the groan-producing, unmentionable walking, were a few of the gettings employed. But they had their share of hassles. No Skate-Boarding signs were posted city-wide and it was a likewise no-no in front of the auditorium or in the quad and hall- ways. A compound under the bleachers, super- vised by Clarence Smith, was added for the barrage of mopeds and motorcycles double- bunking in the racks. For the students who hoped for together- ness in their travels, El Dorado and West Side buses arrived and departed in masses with a marked increase in students bused in from the WestSide. There was always an optimist in the crowd as Assistant Principal Weller, head of school operations demonstrated, Students were more co-operative this year, and l have noth- ing but compliments for the school transporta- tion system. 24 Activities Getting and Going.
