Rowdy students Raise CPHS spirit Although October 23 was a cold, brisk evening, the weather did not stop CPHS students from yelling their loudest and showing their spirit at the 1981 Home¬ coming game. The evening commenced with the annual Homecoming parade with stu¬ dents either watching the parade or par¬ ticipating with their various clubs and organizations in the parade. The actual game started at 7:30 p.m. with the Bull¬ dogs raring to go. The game was a battle until the end. Though the Bulldogs did their best, the Munster Mustangs still managed to take the victory, 13-9. To start the halftime activities Mr. Ed O’Brien, CPHS sports broadcaster, announced the senior float, “Bulldogs ... are Proud as a Peacock,” the winner of the float competition. Next Mr. O’Brien presented the class princesses: freshman Shelly Blue, soph¬ omore Lori Stiener, and junior Michele Queen. Then escorts led the four queen candidates, Nancy Lottes, Nancy Wer- blo, Arlene Halsted, and Cindy Goetz onto the field. As Patty Archbold, Booster Club President, and Dan John¬ son, Student Council President, weaved in between the candidates, the anticipa¬ tion of who would be queen became greater. With a smile on her face and tears in her eyes, Nancy Werblo was crowned the 1981 Homecoming Queen. The following evening at the Home¬ coming dance, “Autumn Fantasy,” Patty Archbold crowned Jim Bloede Mr. Football. The three other Mr. Football candidates were Lance Bonesteel, Dan Charlebois, and Bill Murray. 10—Homecoming

Powderpuff lives Traditions survive Two weeks before Homecoming, Patty Archbold, Booster Club presi¬ dent, was still in search of coaches for the 1981 powderpuff teams. Hope was almost lost but the thought of breaking the powderpuff tradition made, not only Patty, but other girls determined to find coaches. After a long search, coaches were found for each team and long hard practices began immediately. The game was held Wednesday October 21 at 7 p.m. on the football field. Although it was a bitter cold night, the stands were packed with spectators. The seniors won the hard fought battle 14-13. During the week of Homecoming students showed their spirit by wear¬ ing class colors, western attire, crazy hats, wild punk rock outfits, and school colors on scheduled days in¬ stead of their usual attire. On the night of class competitions, students took part in several ac¬ tivities such as an obstacle course, a banana eating contest, and passing apples. Friday afternoon before the big game, all ticket holders were dismiss¬ ed from their last hour classes to at¬ tend the traditional Homecoming assembly. During the assembly those who attended were rowdy and raring to go. The classes competed for the spirit stick, which finally went to the itty bitty freshmen. During the final yelling session with the cheerleaders, a person disguised as the school mascot gave students an extra boost of spirit that made the Homecoming truly exciting. Juniors Eric Schaeffer and Teri Anderson (top) stuff their mouths full of bananas during the banana eating contest on class competition Jeannine Swantko (middle left) shows off her western attire for western day during spirit week.
