This thought was in the mind of every Bruin fan on Homecoming night. The ones who weathered the storm sat huddled under blankets, piles of coats, and umbrellas. Crowning the queen was a wet but pleasant job done by Student Council President Brian Lanham. Brian awarded a kiss and roses to Queen Cheri Elliot. The royal court consist- ed of seniors Carrie Pugh and Traci Davis; junior Lora Cap- per; sophomore Brenda Rogers, and freshman Lori Cain. Frontier Land, this year ' s Homecoming theme, got its share of water also, with juniors taking the top float award. The only elements not dampened were the signs, posters, and other decorations Booster Club put up during Spirit Week — and Bruin spirit. A rousing bonfire highlighting the week on the night before the big game got hopes high and spirits rising. The night, though shadowed by the 9-6 loss, people were enthusiastic about anyhow, as cineers rose from the crowd to the very end. The game wasn ' t a total loss, as the Bruins pulled ahead for a short while before defeat rained down on them. The Bruins took their loss in stride with thoughts of victories to come. After the game, those who love to boogie jammed into the cafeteria for a night filled with Powerhouse ' s music. The dance was sponsored by Student Council and ended Home- coming for the year. Neither RAIN, sleet, snow, nor the gloom of night will keep the Bruins from their appointed game ... or was that the mailman? :W:S5«£s?--..3?a ; Rain didn ' t stop the excitement of juniors who worked hard and won first. Admiring the float are Terry Maddox, Kimberly Martin. With rain-soaked suits and bright smiles, the queen court gather once more to end their night as royalty. The court, with escorts, consisted of Lori Cain, Lora Capper, Traci Davis, Cheri Elliot, Carrie Pugh, and Brenda Rogers. 16 Homecoming
