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. .

Cheerleaders Squads Follow Team To West Virginia Varsity cheerleaders and Tigerettes traveled to Parkersburg, West Virginia with parents of football players hoping to inspire the Tigers to victory. The varsity squad sponsored the second cheerleading clinic, netting overS100. This paid for their overnight stay. Tigerettes spent Saturday mornings during the winter practicing new cheers and routines which they displayed at baseball games. The money they earned selling candy helped pro- vide new uniforms and orange jackets. Reserve cheerleaders placed personal ads in the Prism's Christmas and Valentine's Day issues encouraging their teams. Freshmen cheerleaders were a familiar sight practicing in the halls after school. Mrs. Roberta Rakestraw, cheerleading ad- viser, assisted with projects and guided the writing of a constitution.
