Remembering the times Homecoming week. Not only is it a special event for Lumberjacks, but for high school students throughout the country. It means crowning a Homecoming queen, decorating halls, class floats and a special victory dance following the big football game. All of these events with a few new ideas were added to make this year unique. With the announcement of the queen’s court, Friday, September 29 kicked off the week. The morning was filled with an air of excitement as 22 girls sat in the Community Room awaiting the news. The excitement climaxed as Gail Schrader was named Homecoming queen for 1978-79. Her attendents were Arlene Colby and Theresa Erway and court members were Kelly Bellinger, Bea Burdick, Betsy Ely, Missy Leckie, Mary Nolan, Lisa Parisi, Tracy Smith and Tresa Teenier. The Hillite Booster Barbeque was held on Sunday. Students, as well as community members, joined in the fine art of chicken eating and tested their skills with the dunking machine. The height of the afternoon was the powderpuff football game, juniors versus seniors. Though both teams spent hours practicing and were cheered on by some “extremely strange” cheerleaders, the seniors won 18 to 6. The week continued with the decor- ating of halls. Each class worked hard on their halls in hopes of winning the $50 prize. The money was awarded to the seniors for their uniqueness in the main hall. Also new to this year was the “Star Wars” competition. During advisory students purchased stars costing five cents each. The seniors proved to be tops again, winning with the most stars. of our lives Homecoming day began with the annual assembly in the morning. This included the crowning of Queen Gail, introduction of her court, a few words from last year’s queen Tracy Gridley and from Gail’s father and music from the orchestra and the jazz choir. The evening was highlighted by the Varsity football game and the halftime show. The band played the theme, “The Times of Your Life,” as the queen and court were escorted onto the field by their fathers. Adding to the show was the announcement of the winning float. With the theme of “Viking Stew,” the junior class was awarded first place. The dazzle of these events peaked when the football team had a 33 to 20 win over the Flint Northern Vikings. As the night, as well as the week, came to a close, Lumberjacks boog- ied to the tunes of “Jammer” at the victory dance. 18
