As the Senior chorus sang these Words, they seemed to voice the spirit shared by all AHS students, not only for the new queen, but for all that went into Homecoming 1953. The hilarious side of the annual festivities was dramatized by G.A.A. members in their Dragnet skit, The disappointment of a Homecoming game lost to Owatonna was mostly forgotten as AHS students danced to the music of Rollo Sissel after the game.
