V A Memories Will Linger When autumn leaves begin to fall and school is well on its way, familiar sounds of homecoming plans are first whispered and soon turn out to be the topic of every con- versation. Waiting anxiously for the big event, girls wonder who their date will be and try to decide what they are going to wear. With the boys it's different. They wait for the game, and challenge their nerves as long as they can, but at the last minute ask a girl for a date for the mixer. Highlighting this year's homecoming was Donna Hanson, Austin's 1952 Homecoming l Queen, who was crowned by Student Council 4 President Dale Anderson.
