Murden and Walker reign in ’ Nervousness. Anxiety. Anticipation. All of these were felt homecoming night. As we got up and walked down the stairs, I felt her arm tighten around mine. I knew she was nervous. After we were on the track, I could feel her quiver and shake. Slowly, we moved to the point where her name would be called as a potential queen. “Which way do we turn?” I heard her whisper right before her name was called. Then it came, the name. It was do or die. We walked out, faced the crowd, and then walked out onto the field under the raised swords. It was now that the anticipation was the greatest. They called the name of the Maid of Honor - Whitney Walker. Then it was time, the moment we were all waiting for. They announced the queen - Adrienne Murden. Relaxation flowed through both of us as did our happiness for the new queen. As we moved off the field, we still felt the honor of being on the homecoming court.

Ida Duanything wins title Ida Duanything, Jimmy English, as he is more commonly known, has indeed done just about everything, the most recent being crowned the first Powder Puff King in CHS history. “T feel like a cool breath from an angel’s breast is caressing my body with ecstasy!” Jimmy exclaimed in a falsetto voice. His male of honor, Freeda Anyone, also known as Mike Keasey, said that although he had no idea he would win, he wanted to point that physical attractiveness wasn’t the sole reason he and Jimmy earned their titles. Intelligence, charm, wit, guts, and a wild imagination got them where they are today. “There’s more to me than my figure,” Mike concluded, geturing to the bulge in his two sizes too small sweater. If appearance were a major factor in selecting the Powder Puff Court, these guys definitely had the edge over other contestants. Along with Mike Keasey’s form fitting blue sweater, he modeled a pair of white long johns, which nicely complimented his flowing green polyester skirt. Jimmy English sported the sassy look with a white v-neck sweater and a sizzling pink mini-skirt that showed off his black Reeboks. A brown curly wig and die-hard makeup completed his attire. Obviously, Mike and Jimmy have what it takes to be respectively Male of Honor and Powder Puff King 1987. But what about the king’s successor? “Be sweet, be good, be easy,” Jimmy advised. And with that, he flashed a knowing grin as if he had been all three. Dana Powell The Winner is ...
