.i t, HOMECOMI G EXTRAVAGANZA An electrifying aura was in the air after an unusually exciting game against the Anderson Trojans. Everybody was in the mood for a wild night of partying. The night was cool with a hint of wintery cirspness in the air, thus enhancing the need for a drink to warm one's innards. This was the atmosphere for the year's most anticipated event. What turns an ordinary football game into a special event? The selection of the Homecoming court, with the annual dance held in their honor. This year, A.H.S. held its 97th annual Homecoming game at Burger field. The 1977 Homecoming Royalty was selected in elections conducted bythe Student Council. The results were: Freshman class, Chris Ruiz and Diane Angerman, Sophomore class, Benny Maldonado and Phyllis Schneider, junior classg Craig Poole and lvladelaine Umstaddt. The Homecoming Queen and King, both from the Senior class, were Connie Hatch and lanet Pfluger. The yearly dance began at 9 p.m. in the cafeteria and lasted until midnight. Greg Talley, Student Council President, summed up the general reaction to the dance Yes, l do feel the dance was successful. . . Mr. Brian Schenk, the Student Council Sponsor, felt that there were incredible efforts involved in making the dance a success. Outstanding work on the dance was done by Evan Williams, the Election Committee Chairman, Virginia Dunham, the Social Committee Chairman, Annette Cuedea and Angie Barrenbos. The only problem the dance had was a minor one. Students were told before the dance that they must have l.D.'s. . .many forgot them and were turned away at the door. Greg Talley explained. Crystal Image provided the entertainment and according to Mr. Schenk, it was an Houtstanding band. This along with the participation of the students, made this year's homecoming one of the best A.H.S. has ever had. 53' li
