Bonfire and Parade 26 FCHS Homecoming festivities started this year with the sounding of fire engines, the scuffling of eager feet, and the waving of Tartar banners. Student Council organized a mini parade which took place before the bonfire on Thursday night. After marching from Fairbury’s water tower to the high school, the activities began. Much spirit was shown through the cheers of the Tartar fans. As a special treat, the FCHS varsity football players got up and sang. With the fire blazing wildly in the background, the President of Student Council, Rick Davis, announced the Homecoming Queen of 1968, Miss Karen Hoffman. Student Council sponsored a car smash. Everyone was given a chance to smash Farmer City. Cold weather, along with sunshine, proved to make this year’s parade a memorable one. “Tall Tales and Legends” was the theme for this year’s parade. First place was awarded to the Junior Class, second place to I.C.E., and third place to the Senior Class. Student Council sponsors first FCHS car smash K. Hoffman is announced Queen at the bonfire activities

Valuable Knowledge and Experience Gained Through Rookie Efforts Beginning their football careers at FCHS, the Freshmen football squad ran head on into a tough schedule. However, they proved that they can play tough hard-nosed football with the best of them. They finished the season with a record of 0-6-1. The youngest Tartar squad showed promising hopes in just about all positions, offensively and defensively, as the season progressed. The belief is strong, therefore, that with the experience and knowledge they gained on the playing field and under the guidance and direction of Mr. Beyer, that these boys will progress rapidly and fall into a fine football squad as they gain more experience and apply what they have learned.
