Afitr taking hit writ. King But Gtmlith phut) tht (apt «■» Knit MoruaJ Royalty feels electric tension It's hard to explain. It's like all of a sudden it hit me, my senior year. All the good times I've had came to me. These were Kate Morstad's thoughts as she stood on stage looking out at the Homecoming audience. The tension was electric as the 12 candidates waited impatiently for the crowning of King and Queen. Last year's Queen Katie Olson took her time, weaving in and out of the court. After circling the group more than twice, she finally ended up in front of Prince Bret Gemlich and crowned him king. After the initial surprise of being chosen his first thought was Don't drop the scepter. Since Andy Dorsey, last year's king, could not be at the program, Bret was given the duty of crowning the Queen. Bret added to the suspense by walking around the candidates and occasionally whispering in the princes' ears. After stretching time as long as possibly, he placed the Queen's robe around Kate Morstad's shoulders. Her first thought, after seeing her partner Alex Kauls leave to stand next to Betsy Gustafson, was What do 1 do now? She accepted the crown with a smile. The Royalty Court shared many experiences during Homecoming week, one highlight being lunch at Lee's Village-Inn with President Craig Nelson. llomtttmutg II
