Homecoming 85 t Seniors Come Out On Top Spirit week for the 1985 Homecoming started off with a bang with everyone roaming the halls Monday, on inside-out day. The rest of the week followed with Tuesday being nerd and bum day, Wednesday Hawaiian, Thursday dress-up, and Friday the traditional blue and gold day. After the disappointment of the bonfire being burned down midweek, the high-spirited student body pulled together to rebuild the pile of wood. On Thursday night, the activities started off with the introduction of the court. Princesses Deanna Cahill, Jodi DuVall, and Jennifer Denckla. As the tension rose, waiting for the crowning of the queen, the Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors showed off their acting talent before the Seniors performed the winning skit. The highlight of the night came with the crowning of Queen Jennifer Denckla. The Friday night football game dampened everyone's spirits somewhat, with a disappointing loss to Knappa. In class competition, the Seniors took first place, with the Sophomores second. Juniors third, and Freshmen a close fourth. 26 Homecoming
