Spirits were high and excitement was in the air as the crowd of students, teachers, and parents cheered on the Falcon Football team, hoping for a Homecom- ing victory. Unfortunately, it wasn't to be, as the game ended with the Cal High Grizzlies sending the Falcons down in defeat. Our half-time entertainment con- sisted of a performance by our award winning Falcon Marching Band. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the Queen and King. FHS many have lost the football game, Friday, October 3, but the dance which followed on Saturday night was a victory. The parking lot filled up with cars and dozens of couples in their semi-formal attire strolled gracefully into the transformed gym- The atmosphere was set by the thundering music and colorful streamers as the variegated lights played on the faces of dancing students. People escaped the heat and noice by congregating outside to cool off with a drink of water and powder their sweaty noses. As the clock struck twelve, people headed toward their cars and home. . 1,--nm.M....... ny r fs Getting away from the noise and heat are Becky Reed, Pat Curtin and friends from another school.
