Dances, the Best of Memories A dance, one of the most important events of the year! It ' s expensive for all involved, but it ' s worth it. Of all the memories, the dances are the ones that stand out most. The girls in their dresses, the guys in their tuxes, having a good time. The 1975 Turnabout, sponsored by the Hilltopper, was a big success. The Howe dance band played for the Turn- about. Since 1945 this has been held as the traditional girl-ask-guy dance, replacing the outdated May dance which was held outside. The Brown and Gold was the first formal dance of the ' 75- ' 76 year at Howe. Everyone enjoyed themselves with the music and the company. The Sounds of Light Touch, chosen to play because of their popularity at the ju- nior prom, were the best band at a Howe dance in a long time. The dance will be remembered by many people as one of the best dances we have had. And then, for those who couldn ' t af- ford formal dances, there were the sock hops that yielded the fun without the high cost of a formal dance. Many people attended them and had a dynomite time. A. Student Council president Susan Ferrer and Hilltopper associate editor Glen Marquis plant the traditional kiss on Brown Boy Mark McClure and Golden Girl Laura Tuttle.

But Still a Tradition Homecoming, a tradition un- changed throughout its lifetime. From the very first football team at Howe, in 1943, the fall football and float extravaganza has been the high point of many eastsiders ' frosty autumn nights. The 1975 homecoming was the same in following tradition but will be remembered longer for its weather. Wading through mud and rain, the queen candidates and their escorts struggled to remain intact on the field during halftime. The floats, perhaps the best seen at Howe in a long time, were a little soggy but none the worse for wear. For the first time that anyone can re- call, the band and drill team were unable to march because of freez- ing rain and windy weather. With the crowd scattered in huddles, and those who were there bundled un- der blankets, the cheerleaders de- terminedly cheered the players on. The Howe team held Scecina score- less most of the game, only to lose in the final moments. A. Varsity and reserve cheerleaders lead the fans in the traditional anthem. B. Struggling with wind, rain, and mud 1975 home- coming queen Diane Abney and her escort, Wayne Munchel, await crowning. C. Bright raincoats and umbrellas protect a spirited crowd on a dismal night. D. Co-captain Gary Pottorff huddles with the coaching staff during a break in the close game. E. The junior float, with the theme of a bakery, rolls on down the track to show the crowd the juniors ' work and spirit. F. Long hours and hard work paid off as the German Club float became the first club entry to win the float competition in a long time. G. Laura Schlebecker and Griff Reed work on the soph- omore float during the sleepless week before the homecoming. H. Jersey day, one of three special days during home- coming week, is honored by Mr. Glenn Rohde, head of the math department.
