From the unusually mild fall weather to the victory of the Homecoming game, every- thing fell into place Flashing a little ‘support' hose, Ke- vin Donovan resorts to drastic measures to capture the at- tention of class- mates Steve Jona- sen and Lori Yeager. Sporting the latest in Arabian fashions is Kathy Wilke on ‘Oil ’em Bears' day during Spirit Week. for the Beavers Homecoming week.

E0RDIAL for the occasion. The new year was brought in with a dance in the old gym. Parents spent their time decorating, finding music, and setting up a refresh- ment table. Several city sponsors made it possible to have door prizes, and the Dilmart provided a television set in or- der to watch the “apple” fall in Times Square with the arrival of midnight. Al- though prices varied for admittance throughout the year, most of the time there was an opportunity to save about fifty cents if you went to the dance with another person. Excitement and enthu- siasm were shown by the students at- tending the informal dances this year. Rainbow formal was attended in the fall by about seventy couples. They danced until twelve to music presented by Cashmeire. The theme for the annu- al event was “The Time of Our Lives” and the Rainbow Beau candidates were senior Blair Boetticher, junior Lance Hilton, and sophmore Jim Wil- liams. The winner, Lance, was award- ed a silver top hat and silver roses were given to each candidate and his escort. What was the over all impression? Chandi Coad stated, “I thought it all came out pretty well; but I wish the band would’ve been better.” Out of the many informal dances held during the year, only a few had the privilege of having a live band. Hallow- een, for example, brought in quite a few people to rock to the beat of The Midnight Hour. People just seem to get into a good live band more enthusiasti- cally than they do when the music is pre-taped. Why? Well, when asked her opinion, Cindy Puyear said, “Definitly live music! They’re there, and you’re there. It’s just like the music is being sung to you, it goes out to you.” Presiding over a music system, Tom Dool- ing gets ready for the big night ahead.

Other candidates were Jackie Turney, Debbie Bott, and Marla Clemow. “All the excitement and ev- eryone around me made me a little emotional,” said Andrea. “The compe- tition was pretty even. Everyone de- served to win.” Before the Homecoming game,sen- ior player Gary Ferris felt, “Everyone was jacked!” Scott Weekes did an out- standing job with three interceptions to halt Belgrade Panther drives; two set up Beaver scores. The Panthers wer- en’t really on the ball, fumbling six times during the game, all recovered by the Beavers. At the final gun the Beavers had plowed the Panthers 22- 6. The Coup R's rocked the night away for the annual Homecoming dance held at the Elk’s Club. “The dance was crowded and really hot, but it was a lot of fun,” said Alison Damon.
