Queen Elizabeth, King Christopher reign The crowd grew quiet as the Home- coming King and Queen were about to be announced at the coronation assembly on October 3. Afterwards, instead of the traditional walk, King Chris Kern and Queen Liz Harbert were moved around the gym on a small platform with wheels. This was the first year for such a thing at Lincoln. The Homecoming Court consisted of king candidates Jon Stapes, Chuck Agan, Graig Brown, and Dennis Livingston. The queen candidates included Laura Blunck, Tammy Huggins, Tracy Umden- stock, and Nancy Link. The first runner- up couple in the court was Jon Stapes and Laura Blunck. Swing Choir, under the direction of Carol Stewart, performed as students, faculty, and distinguished alumni ob- served the coronation.
