Senior Bearcat Warren Culpepper down, but not out of the Homecoming game yet Even though my knee still hurt I want ed to score and win Homecoming.” said Warren He returned to see more action that same quarter As the annual Homecoming Parade moved up Columbus Road the juniors could be seen frantically applying finishing touches to their float. The parade wound its way from Moody to the stadium. The winner of the float competition was an- nounced when the parade arrived at the high school. The Bearcat Band was the victor with “Pave The Panthers”. A major change in the Homecoming events this year was a cutback in festivi- ties during Spirit Week . Twins Day, 50’s Day, and Western Day were elimi- nated; and the only festivity that re- mained was Green and White Day. When asked why the activities weren’t better promoted this year, junior Sherrae Adams responded. “The activities weren’t pro- moted because of the four-day weekend and the involvement around the actual game.” The highlight of the night was the game itself. “The first half of the game we couldn’t concentrate well, but, we got our act together by the second half.” replied Bearcat Calvin Mackell. Their concentra- tion paid off as the Bearcats defeated the Euclid Panthers 6-3. The Panthers arrived without a victory to their record not knowing they would be leaving the same way — giving the Bearcats their 2nd straight Homecoming victory. As Friday night arrived, the girl who would reign over Homecoming was finally announced. Jill Spevak. Mitress of Cere- monies. excitedly exclaimed, The 1981 Homecoming Queen is . . Marie Mackris!” “Before the announcement, I was really nervous, but after I found out 1 had won. 1 felt relieved that it was all over.” exclaimed Marie. Varsity B elected Maria Natali, Brenda Robinson, and Daneen Ciganko as attendants. 12 Homecoming
