Homecoming Rock, Raid, And Rain Add Excitement To Traditional Events Homecoming events got under way early with the arrival of DeVilbiss' 9-ton spirit rock on Monday, October 4. The following Friday, students arriving at school found DHS halls strewn with tissue paper and garbage, and saw the tiger in the court and the new rock covered with green paint. At first, Home- coming game opponet, Central, was blamed for the raid, but later students began to sus- pect that it had been an inside job led by certain DeVilbiss officers. However, the raid did spark a spirited response from students. Creative floats and decorated cars contrasted the gray, drizzly weather in the Friday pre- game parade. The parade originated at Walden Pond parking lot and continued down North Cove Boulevard to Upton and DeVilbiss. Despite a lost game and poor weather, the traditional Homecoming dance on Saturday night drew many couples to the DHS cafeteria. The theme ofthe dance, Seasonal Spectrum, and a brightly painted rainbow ending in a pot of gold displayed the official DeVilbiss colors, those of the rainbow. .

Blackwell formed. Sensitivity sessions taught the Human Relations class members to trust one another and look at themselves. Dave Britsch, Linda Kiefer, and Kathy Ness appeared on the T.V. program 'STOP GAP'. Other projects included 'Register Now' and collecting donations for sickle cell anemia. A style show, an art show, and 2 assem- blies were part of the activities planned by the Black History Week Committee. Members of the Spirit Committee bolstered school pride by staging skits at pep assemblies, making signs, and building a Homecoming float. The Judiciary Board, although chosen late in the year, kept Student Government meetings running smoothly. The board consisted of Ron Scaffidi, Marianne Scheer, Lloyd Lunce- ford, Renard Howard, and Lew Maclin.
