A Time To Reflect After the first four weeks of school, many Cadets were in need of a time to reflect on the school year, their lives as students at Concordia, and the way that God had blessed them. This time of reflection occured during Homecoming Week 1981. To many, Homecoming is a tradition of winning floats, bonfires, foot- ball games and greeting friends from the past. As the week progressed, more people got involved in the Homecoming activities and the spirit of reflection and excitement built to its climax during the activities of the weekend. 1981 was a year of change in Homecoming events, and many new ideas were put into use. We broke a lot of tradition this year. These changes could lead to either success or failure, depending on how many students participated. We had good student participation, and I feel that this Homecoming was very successful, commented Student Council Presi- dent Telly Nakos. Rehearsing a skit for the Homecoming pep session, the pajama clad Varsity and Reserve cheerleaders practice in the student lounge. Performing during the half time show, senior Dave Lupke and freshman Amy Uffle- man concentrate on keeping in time with the beat.

Faces were turned toward the sky as hundreds of Cadet fans and alumni watched four parachuters descend onto the playing field in colorful para- chutes. One of these men held the game ball to be used in the battle against the Heritage Patriots. Following the landing of the parachuters, five hundred maroon and white balloons were released, and Homecoming weekend festivi- ties began. The Cadets played a good defensive game, but weren ' t able to stop the Heritage offense, and ended with a final score of 7-27. The coronation of Homecoming king Mike Moellering and queen Sandy Liebmann was held during halftime instead of at the Homecoming dance as done in the past. Sunrise played for the annual Homecoming Dance on Saturday evening. The King and Queen and their court were in formal attire and shared the first couple-; dance. The dance marked the conclusion of Homecoming Week 1981. Keeping e spirit going strong the Varsin d Reserve cheerleaders lead the ins in a chant.
