September 22nd through the 25th was . . exciting, colorful, fun-filled. different, and successful, but most of all it was Homecoming. On Sunday afternoon the cheerleaders started the spirit moving by hanging red and black crepe paper and posters throughout the third floor. Monday started the week of crazy activities with Frizz Your Hair and Security Day. Many students changed their hairstyle for the day and brought their favorite stuffed animal to cuddle throughout the day. Hat Day came with an invasion of the school by hats on Tuesday. The most popular hats were cowboy hats followed by caps of all kinds. The hats almost seemed to make statements about the wearers. Wednesday guys in suits and gals in dresses attractively decorated the school’s halls for Dress Up Day. It was surprising how nice everyone looked dressed up. Red and Black Day not only decorated the school Thursday but also the students. Anticipation and craziness filled the day. Teachers and students had troubles keeping minds on work. Students involved in the homecoming ceremonies worked busily to add the finishing touches. Cheerleaders hurried to finish making the homecoming buttons themselves. They ran into a problem when they found they didn’t have enough plastic covers and had to go to Cedar Falls to finish them by machine. Students finished decorating the gym just in time for the coronation ceremony. The ceremony headed by Rich Nesbit welcomed back Tom Delargardelle. guest speaker and Celeste Van Wey, 1979 Homecoming Queen.
