Homecoming Week creates many memories Homecoming Week 1982 created memories that for many will last a life- time. The week was full of many tradi- tions and even a few activities new to East. Students and organizations were not caught unprepared for early the date of Homecoming. Student Gov- ernment president Mark Morris said, I thought everything went very well, especially considering how early Homecoming was this year. Five days full of activities made up the week, which was enjoyed by all. Mike Harvey, senior, commented, I feel this was the best Homecoming ever because of the abundance of activities such as the dunk tank, bon- fire and Punk Day. Keeping up with the times, the Student Government planned a new activity to begin the week. Punk Prep Day made its debut with great suc- cess. Preppies came dressed in Izods, Oxfords and penny loafers. Mini- skirts, heavy makeup and wild hair marked the punks on this day. Tuesday ' s events were a combina- tion of traditional Homecoming days. Hats, T-shirts and Shades were the order of the second day of the week. Many original garments were fash- ioned throughout the day. UPPER RIGHT: Sophomore Heidi Ricks and Mr. Dick Johnson show off their garb from Hat T-Shirt Shades Days.

Sport coats, sweaters and dresses were commonplace on this traditional day. This event urged more than one student to suggest that we wear nice clothes every day. None of the fancy wear of Wed- nesday could be seen on Thursday. Grub Day was the event set for this day. Students showed up in clothes that normally only their families see them wear. Sweat clothes and rags were common. Concluding the fun-filled week was Spirit Day. Red and Black were abun- dant as the student body got ready for the showdown with North High School that evening. Besides the traditional events, each day of the week was set aside to honor a special group of people with- in our school. Appreciation days were held for students, teachers, adminis- trators, lunch ladies and custodians. Several fund-raising events pulled the week together. Pep E Club spon- sored a breakfast which attracted many students. The dunk tank, bon- fire and carbash all helped to create that spirit famous at East. That Scarlet spirit carried through with a Homecoming victory. The mighty Scarlet football team ran over North in a 7-0 victory. Closing out the week were the assembly and dance. The theme Could I Have This Dance? reigned over both events. b HOMKOMISt,
