By far, Jean Day proved to be most successful with student participation. “Everything and any¬ thing goes materialized on Clash Day which led up to Thursday night’s festivities. As always, the mighty Seniors overpowered the Juniors, the victors over the Soph¬ omores, in the tug ’o war. The tra¬ ditional snake dance made its annual slither around the square but went to pieces before returning to the football field for the GAA Powderpuff football game with the Sensuous Seniors vs the Jiving Juniors. The only touchdown came during the last seconds of the fourth quarter when Senior Deb Hunt plunged in for six points. The game ended with the score 8-0 after the Seniors completed the two point conversion. Diverging from tradition, amateur tricyclists then scuttled around the muddy cinder track for postgame enter¬ tainment. At the conclusion of the final hectic day of Spirit Week, Red and White Day, students scurried about completing last minute details on club cars and class floats for the fifth annual Homecoming parade. After spreading Home¬ coming bliss to the community, the spirited procession paraded the stands for scrupulous judging. First half play with the Lake Central Indians proved the Bull¬ dogs superior by the score 8-7, with Dan Quale scoring. Along with halftime came the long awaited announcements of Homecoming Queen, Ruth Graves; Class Spirit Week Winner, Class of ’73; Class Float Winner, Seniors; and the Best Club Car, Latin Club. Resuming the second half, the Bulldogs blew their opponents off the field with three touchdowns by Spencer Dennis, Jeff Hall, and Jim McFadden, finalizing the score at 30-13. Ensuing the victory, Home- comingsters attended “Shades of September’’ featuring Jacob Grimm. After the crowning of Dan Quale as Mr. Football, couples dis¬ persed to restaurants in the area concluding a week of anticipation and anxiety. 10
