Harvest Ball I ' HotOeMt KotAen, ' Hi O Z ei teeHf in. Ue DanA ust of cool wind dIows through your hair as you open the gym- nasium doors. As ? ' 0U walk across the floor, you ancy you hear the crunch of crisp leaves beneath your feet. The elongated tables are covered with miniature pum- pkins and squashes. A huge cornstalk stands guard at the center of the room. Everywhere you look there are girls in skirts and dresses of cinnamon, ' bronze, am- ■ ; ber, and rust. The Harvest Ball was tru- ly a picture of autumn. A Alone ot lost, Chris Mernitz and Lynn Baber share a special moment. The Harvest Ball took place on November 10 from 8:00 to 10:00 p.m. A group of sophomores led by Misitie Calvin were responsible for the decorations. Dee jay Dan Eckelbarger provided the music. Group dancing and switching partners made the night exciting and fun for all. Couples jitterbugged to the old-time anthem of rock ' n roll, Rock Around the Clock by Bill Haley i a n d t h e Comets, and got down to the modern sounds of ZZ Top ' s Sharp D r e s s e c Man. ▲ Heavenly roys illur changing leaves of a mapl illuminate the naple tree. ► Gotta mo e.

0€€CO pU€t ?4 I e cccmfieace he week of October 1-5 was spirit-filled. A record number of students par- ticipated in the dress-up routines of spirit week— hat, tie, and glasses day; western day etc. — and a whole crowd showed up on the balmy evening of the bonfire. Homecoming ' 85 saw the revival of this old tradition; and even though it wasn ' t a chilly evening, it was still fun to mingle close with friends as the flames kicked up into the clear autumn night sky. When Friday came around, the day was dark and gloomy. The students and players dragged themselves around school thinking that it would rain and ruin everything. And it did rain on our parade in the afternoon, but that didn ' t chase away the teacher entry which was a pick-up truck featuring a group of self-proclaimed nerds. That evening Wabash took an ag- gressive lead in the second quarter and went on to dole out a crushing blow to Manchester (54-14). During the halftime celebration, Gary Kiefaber and Lori Montgomery were coronated while the Apache Marching Band performed Lionel Richie ' s Hello. Shelly Daven- port presented the ' 84 Alumni Award to Mary and Amelia Bizjack. ▲ Newly-croivned royalty, Gary Kiefaber and Lori Montgomer ' smile to their applauding subjects.
