Queen Cassandra sees Warriors win Homecoming 1984 was an event to remember for a variety of J reasons besides the theme Let ' s Go Crazy Warrior Style. For Homecoming Queen Cassandra Lewis, it will be remembered as one of the happiest nights of her high school days as she was chosen as the first black Queen of Warren Central. For the Warriors it will be remem- bered as another victory in a long string of victories this year, this time against Lawrence North. But throughout the school for several weeks before the big event, everyone was asking Where are we going to build the floats? Then the question became Are we going to get to build the floats? As a result of all the destruction the year before to floats from students, the administration was not about to let the same thing happen twice. Finally it was decided that students could build floats just like in previous years, but that there had better not be any trouble or this would be the last year for a parade. But the parade was held although few were there to watch it, as the student body was not dismissed to view it as in other years. Most students went home after school and did not come back. The floats were kept intact and the Class of ' 85 won the float competition again this year. The entire week prior to Homecoming was filled with activities designed to build spirit and enthusiasm. Senior Debbie Glymph observed, It really gave me a chance to get crazy and obnoxious. The 5K Race is an important event of the Homefest activities. Warriors congratulate Coach Jerry Stauffer after the Homecoming win. i— Days 21

Floats or not, that was question Tuesday night proved to be a mi- lestone Powder Puff game in many respects. First the tur- nout for the seniors was much larger than expected. Organization was more evident in every team. Shaving cream and egg fights occurred after nearly ev- ery practice. The actual game was played in War- rior stadium with the juniors defeating the seniors. Junior Angie Geryak commented, They played a good game, but it was a real neat feeling to know our team beat the seniors. Senior Trent Moss will be able to tell his grandchildren that on Wednesday of Homecoming Week he paraded with a whole gang of other crazy guys to win the title of Mr. Warren Central 1984. Eight contestants competed for the crown judged on bathing suit, suit and tie and performing categories. Dress days were a real success with Toga Day a favorite and students dressed in little more than mom ' s sheets doing like the Latins do. Homefest, sponsored by the PTA Council, was a great success but created some problems for the traditional events of the high school Homecoming. For ex- ample, the 5K Run created problems for those wanting to pick up their 1985 Wig- wam after school hours, since the area was blocked off in the safety of the run- ners. The Homecoming Dance was also changed as a result of Homefest activi- ties and use of facilities. Another reason for changing the dance was so that foot- ball players, who would be busy after the game with team activities, could attend the game. But on Saturday night, the dance was held in the cafeteria and foyer area, sponsored by the Student Council. Let ' s go crazy Warrior Style, proved to be a theme that lived up to its name. Senior class members cheer on their girls ' powder- puff team. The girls lost the game to the juniors. Junior Robert Dunlap performs during the Boys Beauty Contest.
