3 Toni Walker crowns Nancy Homecoming queen 1970 while Princess Deve Watkins ffar leftj Tim Turner and Princess Christy Commons look on. Homecoming You've got to be kidding! This was the extent of the speech made by Nancy Powers when she was crowned Homecoming Queen for 1970. The crowning of Queen Nancy, during the intermision of the Maffit and Davis Concert on Friday, October 23, officially started the Homecoming activities. Weeks before this event took place, Homecoming co-chairmen Toni Walker and Tim Turner, were preparing the schedule of events which included a bonfire, an auto-race, a noise parade, an alumni banquet, a concert and crowning ceremony, and the Homecoming dance. Plans also had to be made to find a queen. lffri- ous organizations elected candidates on whom the student body voted for three. The three chosen were Deve Watkins, Christy Commons and Nancy Powers. Thus we had a court. Next the entire student body voted again, this time for a queen. Deve, Christy and Nancy will long remember Home- coming 1970. Vice President of the A1umr1i Asso- ciation, Sally Brown, recrowns Nancy Homecoming queen for 1970. fx
