What a Feeling was the theme for the 1983 Homecoming Dance. The dance was sponsored by the Student Government, and was con- sidered a great success. The entire week in fact, was successful. With ' 50 ' s and ' 60 ' s days on Mon- day, many wo re costumes of poodle skirts and bobbie socks from the ' 50 ' s and rolled up straight legs and love beads for the ' 60 ' s. On Tuesday the theme was Hat and T-shirt Day. The students wore outlandish outfits with sayings like Sweet things Remind me of You printed on them. The hats were something else and the glasses —UGH! On Wednesday the theme was Dress-up Day. The students went all out and portrayed their loyalty to East High. On Thursday the theme was Almost Anything Goes. Students wore jogging suits, pajamas, cut- offs and T-shirts; some even wore costumes. On Friday, the last day of Home- coming Week, the student body wore red and black to symoblize the spirit of East High and their pride in their school. The Homecoming Assembly was held on Friday, and proved to be a big hit! The Steppers, Color Guard, Cheerleaders and Majorette per- formed and did an outstanding job. The Silent Vibrations performed a play entitled, Pride Piper, to pro- mote pride at East, and WOW! Did they do a marvelous job! At the football game Friday night, the East fans were wild, with hair painted red and black, and clothes the same colors. They were ready to cheer the Scarlets on to victory against Lincoln. The Scarlets won the game, defeating the Railsplitters 21-14. Thanks to the Student Govern- ment, varsity football team. Assem- bly Committee, student body and all others who made it possible, this year ' s Homecomong Week Assem- bly, Game and Dance were the best ever!
