A' MIGHT CINDER THE 1 STARS’ Illuminates a world of enchantment “Q Otar light, star-bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight. When we were children these verses provided us with hope and faith for our most magical dreams to come true. On Homecoming night, dreams became realities and A Night Under the Stars gave many a special glow. This special glow was apparent on the faces of the attendants as they were chauf- feured around the stadium in sleek conver- tibles. With happy smiles and waving hands, they were given the spotlight for this memorable experience and the light didn't dim throughout the evening. But this was only part of Homecoming's ac- tivities. To fulfill the anticipation of the crowd. King Steve Barker and Queen Teresa McKibben were announced as the royalty to reign over the festivities. Teresa commented. I was happy just to be an at- tendant, but the honor of being Queen real- ly made the night special. As half-time rolled around, the Skyhawk Force made their appearance. Putting on a show of glamour and delight, they added more spirit to the already excited crowd and players. Homecoming made us a lit- tle more nervous than usual, but we per- formed with excitement and really worked hard for perfection, commented Senior Nancy Sawyer, Guard Captain. As the Force marched off the field, the gridders once again took command. The Skyhawk team was fired up for the second half and team member Chet Saunders said, The first half was tough, because the team was down about our season record and having to face one of the best teams in the state made it even tougher. But that didn't really effect us spirit-wise and we gave it our best. Even when it was over we were still excited. Despite the tough struggle, the Wayne Warriors managed to overcome the 'Hawks with a 31-0 victory. Coach Thomas Massie explained his feelings about the game. This game, to me, was a heck of an accomplishment for our team. We shut Wayne out in the second half, letting them gain no more points, and if our team hadn't had enough courage to get out there and give it their all. we would've lost by even more.” Even so, the crowd was still proud and appreciative of tfte effort put forth by the players and cheered them on as they left the field. Homecoming Exchanging a light-hearted joke. Heather Barn- hart and Stephanie Roberts wait for the game to begin as Julie Hohler and Bobbie Wharton take a last minute inspection of the banner. n the hope of a punt, the defense line risks a little ain to reject Wayne's attempt at an extra point at he long awaited game.
