moonlit memories highlight Footboll Homecoming events. The 1981-82 Football Homecoming took place on October 23, 1981. The Panthers came away victorious with a 34-6 win over Ohio County. Although chilling temperatures per- suaded many spectators to search for warmer places to stay until the Home- coming festivities began, there were still a Nfaithful few who watched the game. Those who did stay huddled in the stands while blankets and hot chocolate proved to be familiar sights. The sparsely populated bleachers weren't enough to discourage the Panther team, however, as they proved by the final score. This year's Homecoming differed from those in the past, in that, the Queen and her court were escorted to the sta- dium in Corvettes. The Booster Club sponsored this idea and it proved to be a tremendous success. The Boosters also brought up the idea of having class at- tendants. When carried through, this also proved to be successful. As in years past, the DC student body voted for the Homecoming Queen the first and second attendants. lahn Old- loAnn Liston was chosen by her fellow stu- dents as second attendant. She was escorted by Michael Thomas. ham was chosen as the 1981-82 Home- coming Queen. She was escorted by Mike Waltrip. The first attendant was Barbara Simon, escorted by Lynn North- ern and the second attendant was loann Liston, who was escorted by Michael Thomas. The senior class chose Angie Medley as their Senior Attendant. Margaret Howard, Lori Oliver, and Beth Kurtz were chosen as junior, sophomore and freshman attendants, respectively. The theme, 'Moonlight and Memo- ries was carried through by decorations such as clouds with each couples' names printed on them and hanging stars. The mood was further enhanced by murals painted by janet Moredock and the Pep Club. The dance was sponsored by the Pep Club through funds raised primarily through car washes and bake sales. The DJ., Steve Hooks created a pleas- ant atmosphere which made these 'lMoonlit Memories ones that will last forever.

Hngie medley crowned os 1982 Bosketboll Homecoming Queen The Basketball Homecoming, spon- sored by the Pep Cub, took place on Tuesday, February 23 at the Bremen vs. DCHS game. Assured of a certain victory over Bre- men, the spirited panther fans eagerly awaited the crowning ceremony. The girls' and boys' varsity basketball teams chose Angie Medley as 1981-82 Homecoming Queen because they felt she deserved the honor because of all the support she gave them throughout the year. Angie is a senior and the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. lohn Medley of Owensboro. Miss Medley was chosen by her classmates as i'Panther Patriot and was elected as President of Pep Club. She has been an active member of Student Council for four years and a three-year member of the tennis team. She was also chosen as senior attendant at the 1982 Football Homecoming.

Kyna and Stacey are both senior varsity bas- ketball players and have made many valuable contributions to the girls' bas- ketball team. Following the double-victory over Bre- men, the Homecoming Dance provided everyone with a chance to dance the night away with D.l. Frank Taylor. The Homecoming Theme, l'Almost Like a Dream gave the Pep Club an opportunity to incorporate pastels into the decorations. The Yarden Center donated a fountain to achieve a dream- like atmosphere. But, just like all dreams, it came to an end, but this dream was one that won't soon be forgotten. The Pep Club spent a great deal of time in preparation for this event and their efforts were truly appreciated by all who attended the dance. They sold carnations for Valentine's Day as the primary fundraiser for this event. The Pep Club proved, as a result of their efforts, that l'Dreams can come true.
