The Homecoming Dance provides senior queen Lori Meyer and king David Fort- meyer the chance to enjoy the sounds of End Game together. Under the direction of Mr. Wills, the varsi- ty band and flag girls perform their im- pressive half-time routine on homecoming night. Week-long energy disappears! heers of intent, groans of ef- fort, and finally screams of victory could be heard out on the field. However, mounting problems caused Powder-Puff to be put to a stop after six consecu- tive years of this hard-fought ri- valry between junior and senior girls. The danger of head injury, coaches and parents intimidating refs, and the dilemma of finding unbiased timekeepers all aided in forcing the administration to look for alternatives to this tradition. Overall, the night proved ex- tremely rewarding especially for members of the senior class with a win of 12-8 in the Powder-Puff and a shut-out of 5-0 during the halftime cageball war. As the Cadets fell to Heritage 28-13, many of the yells of excite- ment from the night before turned to bleak sighs of accep- tance. Tim Ewell revealed, Most people thought that if we were go- ing to win one all season, Heritage was our chance. Despite the winless record, stu- dents began adding their personal touches to the backdrop of this week-long event through dress- up days, floats, and hall decora- tions. The zany costumes donned set the daily scene as fashions varied from P.J. ' s one day to mini- skirts and peace signs the next. After school energetic Cadets worked frantically covering miles of concrete and chicken wire with graffite expressing their unre- lenting support. The traditional coronation of the queen and court brought a re- alization to the theme, Home is where the heart is. 24 homecoming
