Awaiting the big moment of the coronation are the queen candidates and their escorts: seniors, Tom Gajda, Bridget Hen- nessy, Ricky Hansen, Suzanne Karan, Tom Wool, Antoinette Bodnar, Kurt Coolman, Johine Ignelzi, Jeff Davies, and Shirley Campbell. Emerson Royalty Reigns Happy and smiling over her title of the 1962-63 Homecoming Queen is senior Bridget Hennessy and her escort Tom Gajda. Gold and grey streamers, glittery crowns, and fresh flowers added to the already festive Homecoming ceremonies on Friday, September 25, during the half-time of the Tornado vs Hornet game. The five candidates selected by the entire student body were Antoinette Bod¬ nar, Shirley Campbell, Bridget Hennessy, Jo¬ hine Ignelzi, and Suzanne Karan. Each girl anxiously awaited the crowning and secretly dreamed of receiving the football signed by the team. Tension increased as the candidates were es¬ corted around Gilroy Field in convertibles. The 1963 Homecoming Queen was Bridget Hennessy and her escort was Tom Gajda. Other escorts were Kurt Coolman, Jeff Davies, Ricky Hansen, and Tom Wool. The entire court was honored at the Homecoming Dance in the girls’ gym following the game. 7

Emerson’s 1962 Football-O-Rama Queen Lynne Oros, right, and attendant, Johine Ignelzi. Emerson Queens Reign Throughout the Year P.T.A. President, Mrs. Jack Burns, presents Shirley Camp¬ bell, Miss Gold; and Gerry Elston, Mr. Gray; with their trophies. If seniors Johine Ignelzi and Suzanne Karan or juniors Kathy Fisher and Lynne Oros were seen go¬ ing in and out of stores, apartment buildings, and stopping people on the street in the summer of 1962, it was probably because they were trying to sell tickets to Gary’s annual Football-O-Rama. From these four candidates the Football-O-Rama Queen was selected on the basis of the girl who sold the most tickets. The climax came when, amid cheering crowds of Emersonians, junior Lynne Oros was crowned queen with Johine Ignelzi, senior, as run¬ ner-up. Also contributing to Emerson’s variety of queens were the Future Business Leaders of America. Out of sixteen candidates, this club annually elects a White Collar Queen with two attendants. Linda Levandoski, was chosen queen with Sandy Spence and Pat Stanislaw as attendants. Two seniors are honored every year with the title of Miss Gold and Mr. Gray. These two people repre¬ sent Emerson as typical Emersonians. Selected on the night of the P.T.A. Carnival were Shirley Camp¬ bell as Miss Gold and Gerry Elston as Mr. Gray. 8
