Untimely Rain Fails To Drown Enthusiasi The morning Coronation of September 25th ushered in two days of Homecoming activities thematically centered around the “Roaring Twenties.’ That afternoon the school body was entertained by humorous skits portraying that by-gone era. Featured were the Keystone Cops. Flappers, gangsters, song and dance routines, pantomimes, and a magic act. Even though rain precipitated game postponement, a wallshaking pep fest was presented. The West High Steppers danced to the music of the I920’s hit, “Toot Toot Tootsie Goodbye. ’ The parade, too. was postponed, as evidenced by a disappointed band and water-logged floats. That evening the traditional Homecoming Dance was held in the Lakeland Room of the Pick-Nicollct Hotel in downtown Minneapolis from 8:00 to 11:30. A small-scale parade and the game took place the following Monday, and it was clear that the passing of the weekend had not shaken the retained spirit. Homecoming Queen Sue Powers and her escort Steve Goycttc discuss the day's events while relaxing at the dance. 20 B th .i pulsating beat.

Additional Regal Formalities Captivate Audience On the morning of September 25th. an overwhelming air of regality and majesty surrounded the 1970 Homecoming Coronation. The stage was decorated with a colorful panel of cut-out designs. Background music was provided by the West High Band. New and professional formalities added to the appeal of the ceremony. The tuxedo-garbed Master of Ceremonies, senior ladies-in-waiting and junior pages added to the enticing atmosphere. The stately ceremony was further enhanced by the selection of a most lovely candidate. Queen Sue Powers was presented with roses, and serenaded by a medley of songs from West High's versatile band director Mr. William Antholz. By combining a creative setting with procedural additions, the 1970 Coronation was unique and sophisticated. and will likely continue to hold a high place among memorable Homecoming ceremonies.
