“Soul 69 Juniors take first in float competition with “You Can’t Rear rhp lackers ” An enthusiastic band, cheerleading squad, and student body gathered in the C.H.S. bowl for the bonfire that set off the next two bustling days of the Homecoming. Late Friday afternoon the band, twirlers, cheerleaders and royal court assembled at the courthouse smiling on excess adrenalin needed after a week of float building and endless practice for the big night. The Chester Yellowjackets fought a scream-evoking and heart-pounding game, but lost to the Murphysboro Devils to the dismay of the spirited fans. At halftime Miss Linda Sellers was crowned 1968 Homecoming Queen by the retiring queen, Miss Jana Frazer. In the float competition that followed, the juniors won first with “Jackets Can’t Be Beat,” the seniors placed second with Breakfast of Champions,” and the band received third with “Give ’Em a Little Sole.” Saturday night concluded the never forgotten activities with the Homecoming Dance in the decor of the “Gay 90’s.” II Traditional bonfire enkindles into all the blaze of spirit.

The annual Chester High School Homecoming Dance was a tremendous success. The King James Version provided the music for the dance and did a very wonderful job. One of C.H.S.'s own talented vocalists, Gail Feldman, joined the group for several selections. The theme of the dance was Let’s Take a Stroll Down Main Street To the Gay 90’s.” The main color scheme used for the decorations was red and white. Mrs. Paetzhold and her art classes and the Student Council did a fantastic job, for everyone felt transported back into time. Last but certainly not least was the presentation of the golden football to the queen. The chosen queen was Linda Sellers and her attendants were Joyce Yankey, Judy Wiebusch, Mavis Weber, and Sherrie Snider. Happy couples enjoying the atmosphere of the Gay 90’s.
