Scott Otto and Freddy Fredricks show spirit on Hat and Shades Day. “Year after year, I have enjoyed student's active par- ticipation in the festivities of Homecoming. They decorated halls, giving me a touch of life. I listened as eager girls discussed their dresses and shy guys got up enough courage to finally ask a certain girl out. I could see the Heaven in their eyes. The festivities of 86-87 Homecoming were carried out during the first week of October. Spirit was at a maximum. It was one of the biggest events of the year. The action began during spirit week. Regular students seemed to undergo a transition in clothing fads, dressing up for hat and shades day; mix and match day; purple and white, toga day. Kim McIntyre s committee worked hard to sell flowers. Even the downtown reflected the spirit after the Student Council painted windows in catchy designs. Thursday, preparing for what was to come, a pep rally was held. The football players were introduced to their fans. The girls decided to show the guys what they were made of in a powder puff football game. The junior-freshman team swept the senior-sophomore team away. The big game was a rush of excitement that the rain could not drown. The halftime show was an exuberant display. The choral department performed to the routine And We Danced by the Hooters, reliving musical styles of the cen- tury. The court was crowned in a majestic moment. The football game itself was dramatic. Spectators would not hide their enthusiasm under umbrellas. (It was disap- pointing when the final score came in; LaSalle-Peru won with a 7-6 victory.) The week was capped by the long-awaited dance at Walgreen s Field, in an airport hanger. Loverboy’s I Can See the Heaven in Your Eyes was the theme song. Steve Somers, the D.J. from the popular WZOK radio station, pro- vided the music that set the tune for the evening and ended the week. 9
