Connie Bjerke, Darlene Johnson. Queen Sandra Monahan, Joyce Monroe, Pat Kicmen HOMECOMING October 10. 1952. was encircled in red in the ship’s log. Homecoining was the biggest event of the year. Plans were begun early in the. fall, and everyone aboard was eagerly awaiting its arrival. The final calendar of events stretched from early morning to midnight. At 8:30 A.M., students and teachers dressed in pioneer costumes were judged for the best outfits in each class. Later, during the program. the winners were presented to the Queen and her court. The “beards” of Central, both faculty and students, were examined for strength and length; but the judges were unable to reach a final decision, and the prize was divided equally. The theme of the program. “Queen Sandra’s Court.” cleverly bound the individual acts into the command performance of visiting envoys. The Prime Minister of the court, in reality the master of ceremonies, formally introduced the acts to the Queen and the audience. Miss Barron, appropriately dressed in old-fashioned finery, commenced the program with a spirited word of welcome. Each act was something special. The dance routines, the songs, the music, and the jokes; each holds a special memory of the wonderful Homecoming program. Central versus Washburn! The old rivals were at each other again. The slogan, “Wash Washburn. really foretold the outcome o' the game; for the Pioneers whipped the Mil ers with finesse. Evening, and the grand finale arrived Spotlights played about the gaily decorated gym, giving an air of excitement to the dance. Toni Grise’s band filled the room with music that filled one to the brim with happiness, and sent one dancing homeward in complete joy, remembering the wonderful Homecoming of 1952. 16
