NATIONAL A Time For Fun Homecoming has always been a special time for the students at Coldwater High School, and this year was no exception. The fun began on Monday when students were asked to display school spirit by wearing their catchiest sneakers on a day aptly dubbed as “Sneaker Day.” Action continued Tuesday, “Shades of Bermuda Day,” when students wore sunglasses and tropical colors bright enough to blind. “College T-Shirt Day” was the high point of the week, when students wore shirts ranging from MSU to Harvard. That night a large crowd competed in the first annual Homecoming Olympics. Extra points for Homecoming were awarded to winners of the Peanut Roll, Ping-pong Throw, Shave a Balloon Contest, and the infamous Pie-eating Contest. Seniors put their noses to the grindstone (or the gym floor) to win the Peanut Roll and the Ping-pong Throw. Pigging out royally on chocolate, lemon and coconut cream pies, the juniors won the Pie-eating Contest, while the freshmen, barely able to shave themselves, finished first in the Shave a Balloon Contest. Thursday everyone but the teachers wore jeans on Jeans Day, and the week ended with Red and White Day on Friday. 1. “The Begley Look — Shawn Bagley wears a bit of the Islands on “Shades of Bermuda Day. 2.
