lt. Don Abernathy Roland Tostado Debbie Green Peter Platt Philip Ramseyer Pirates Make Merry October 23rd, 2:00 a.m.g Ram pirates sneaked out of their beds shivering their timbers to begin assembly of their treasures - the floats and booths for Homecoming '81 - The Pirates of the Carri- bean. Under an 80-degree noon sun the Pirates shout- ed a Yo Ho, Matey! and welcomed a quad full of alumni to admire their efforts. Freshmen dug up a treasure chestg sophomores spotted an islandg ju- niors fired up a cannong but the swashbuckling seniors captured the first-place swag with their pi- rate ship designed by Rick Atwood. Pirates made merry with wenches while the band Solidarity rocked out. Part of the six-man group were three seniors, Roland Tostado on drums, Steve Hoyt on bass, and Scott Morimoto on guitar. Twenty-eight booths festooned the quad. Kasie Kaminski's favorite booth was the AFS sponge throwg Rina Furry liked to watch the Creative Film Society Artist draw caricaturesg while loyal singer Val Johnson preferred the Choral Club's frozen bananas. At the two-o'clock rally, Girls' League revealed it's choice of Marc Jackson as this year's Mr. Masculine Muscles. Costume prizes went to Tom Savedra and English teacher Larry Simon. The rally closed with the annual unmasking of Robbie and Millie, Matt Flynn and Lisa Wall.

Yo Ho Queen's Life For Gayle Ladies and Gentlemen, your 1981 Homecoming queen is, . .Gayle Chambers. These words were met with roars of approval and a standing ovation just prior to the Jordan game. The court cruised in on specdboats lent by Lee Daniels and Don Mar- mion. The royal court was then marooned on a tiny tropical island from where they watched the Rams triumph over the Panthers, 21-15. Commenting on her feelings upon hearing her name, Gayle said, 'KAN l could think was 'no way'. She added, lt was a special moment because I felt that God had a reason in allowing me to receive this honor from my peers. New Wave sounds rocked the gold gym as the band Solidarity played the night away after the game. During the band's breaks a disc jockey filled in, satisfying even more musical tastes.
