The coronation of Bridget Cassidy and Robert Jacob as Homecoming royalty was one of the highlights of Homecoming Week, Sept. 29th to Oct. 3rd. The program was short but festive, featuring theme music played by Mr. Leigh Anderson on his guitar. Each class’s contestants were announced; they marched down the aisle by twos, and then the finalists were announced after their names were drawn from envelopes. The senior finalists were the king and queen. Royalty and attendants were (from left) Michelle Eskro and Ben Wilkie, freshmen; Maria Rucke and Troy Barnard, sophomores; Mary Schneider and Joe Hyser, juniors; Queen Bridget and King Robert; Anne Soltys and Pete Dotray, Theresa Fisher and Warren Hildreth, and Peggy Torborg and Dan Kaiser, seniors.
