110 ORGANIZATIONS HOMECOMING Enthusiasm kept in spite of showers Varsity drowns Mission Valley Vikings 'Up Where We Belong' depicts theme for dance Mist floated slowly to the ground as the varsity foot- ballers warmed up on the field before the start of the game against Mission Val- ley. Even though it was the annual Homecoming foot- ball game, few spectators gathered to watch. Those who did were cozily wrapped in blankets and protected by umbrellas. But the rain didn't dam- pen the spirits of the foot- ball team, nor did it hinder their enthusiasm for a win. When half-time arrived, the boys had tied the Vikings 7- 7. At this time the candi- dates took their places 'on the field. Rain poured from the sky, making it impossi- ble for the photographers to take pictures. lt was really bad be- cause we'll never be able to recapture that moment when the royalty was an- nounced, said junior Con- nie Robbins. Mary Dekat was crowned Queen by King Jess Ad- ams. The attendants were Kim Frank and Monte Ellis and Angie Suther and Shel- don Sala. As the buzzer sounded the end of the fourth quar- ter, the footballers had tri- umphed over the Vikings, 17-7. The dance, with the theme of Up Where We Belong was held directly after the game. And they all fall down. Partici- pating in the games before the bonfire, the seniors hurry to finish their pyramid before the other classes. Photo by Beth Branden- burg.
