This year's Homecoming Dance may hardly be called the average dance. Organized chiefly by G. T. Skinner, the Cascia Hall 1981 Homecoming Dance was held at the Summit Club. Not only was this dance at the Summit Club, but formal wear was expected of all who attended. The underclassmen wore black tie tuxedos while the seniors were adorned in 'ttails and white ties. The dance itself was something that Cascia students hadn't experienced for many, many years - probably never. The six-piece band played old vvaltzing music to go along with the Homecoming theme A Touch of Class . It was discovered by all that waltzing is neither as dull nor as difficult as it looks and the dance was picked up very quickly. However, almost everyone was put to shame by the gracefulness of Todd Skinner and Cheri Tabler doing the Tango , Our formal dance turned out to be a great success and will very probably be adopted as another Cascia tradition. i TOP: TODD Skinner sits at the head of the table at the Summit Club.

XWIKQ. It - ,G 4 f' ' will F-'I Q., Nxt. 6 at vnttttmtt sw' T Before the game even started the crowd knew that they were going to see one of the finest games played at Cascia in the recent years. Expectations were high this night and the football team fulfilled them all. Up until they met Cascia Hall, Cleveland had had only twelve points scored on them all year ffour gamesl. By the end of the first half of play the Comman- does had scored fourteen points on Cleveland, while Cleveland had scored only twelve. The first half was clearly dominated by Cascia. Halftime festivities were highlighted by the Cleveland marching band and the presenta- tion of the Homecoming queen, Lynn Doyle, and court. The queen and her entire court were chauf- feured to the fifty yard line in old and extravagant autos, among them a 1935 Mercedes Gazelle, a Rolls Royce, and an antique MC. This was by far the fanciest presentation of queen and court in Cascia history and certainly added A Touch of Class . The second half of the game proved to be more exciting than the first. With only three minutes remaining in the game, the score twenty-eight lCascial to twenty- six lClevelandl, and Cleveland attempting the two point conver- sion to tie the game, the Cascia defense held. This crucial play helped Cascia to hold the lead for the rest of the game: the final score being 28-26. TOP: MONTE Casino Pep Club's first class spirit banner at end of spirit line before game.
