| just felt like doing Something wild and crazy for Homecoming. So | sacrificed my hair for school spirit; Junior Scot Angus Final Victory Untraditional Homecoming week ended with success -Heather Jesse Students arrived Monday morn- ing with the school in a scheme of orange and black. This was created by cheerleaders who had decked the halls the day before. Along with the decorations, a list of Homecom ing activities lined the front hall. But some of these tra- ditional events were altered through the week, creating disappointment among many students. The decorations created the most school spirit because some activities had to be cancelled, ju- nior Amy Hausman said. The activity list began on Mon- day with window painting.

The evening began with the an- nual coronation ceremony. Neila An- derson and Boris Bachmann were crowned Homecoming Queen and King before a thundering crowd.

This took the place of the traditional bonfire that had to be cancelled because of the dry sum- mer. Having the pep rally inside just didn't have the same effect as hav- ing a crowd around a blazing fire, sophomore Jennie Jones said. The enthusiasm of the student body began to rise once again Fri- day as the game approached. Sev- eral football players showed their team spirit by shaving their heads and piercing their ears. | just felt like doing something wild and crazy for Homecoming,’ ju- nior Scot Angus said. “So | sacri- ficed my hair for school spirit. ` That night the crowd carried on the momentum to help lead the Little Cyclones to a 14-7 victory over the Hoover Huskies.

However, many students would have preferred a Saturday dance They felt that there wasn't enough time to go out before and some peo- ple were too tired after the game.
