Homecoming 7 970 presents Sesame Street on parade Irish Homecoming 1970 was celebrated with a long-awaited victory as CC defeated Bishop Dwenger 28-0. Spirit Week saw the Junior class win the spirit stick with enthusiasm that spread throughout the school and reached a peek at the game. St. Vincent ' s Villa was the scene of a scoreless tie between the Senior Broads and the Junior Untouch- ables followed by the lighting of the bonfire by the senior men. The Senior skit was performed by the light of the bonfire. Halftimes activities included a display of the two floats and concluded with the crowning of Carol Shaffer as Homecoming Queen 1970. Following a parade back to CC ' s gym, football players escorted the court in a spotlight dance viewed by alumni and students in a fantasy atmosphere.
