Basketball Homecoming succeeds without theme Basketball Homecoming, sponsored by Student Council on Jan. 28, offered the- meless festivities on a snowless night. Even without a theme, decorations in the Bateman Gym were as attractive as ever. Halftime crowning activities began with the introduction of King and Queen candi- dates: freshmen Doreen Zolman and Tom Firks, sophomores Julieanne Johnson and Joe Talley, juniors Patti Kleber and Scott Mason, and seniors Sandy Sparks, Eric Mossberger, Deanna Wappes, Mark Bow- man, Twylia Emigh, and Jay Johnson. The climax came with the announcement that Eric and Twylia were the new King and Queen. Twylia received her crown from Lena Sorensen, 1982 Queen, while Greg Bock, reigning King, presented a plaque to Eric. An exciting second half of basketball action ended with the Railroaders on the short end of a 57-56 battle to the last minute against Fremont. Despite the loss, GHS students were in good spirits for the traditional Homecoming dance in the Ober Auditorium. The band “‘Byte”’ pro- vided music for about 170 dancers.

GHS spirit evident in sports, other activities Jerseys, buttons, bumper stickers, and banners all reflected the spirit of GHS in 1982-1983. Spirit weeks before ‘“‘big”’ games gave students a chance to display school spirit and pride at their utmost. Cheerleaders and Pep Club members bol- stered team spirit before each game by decorating players’ and managers’ lock- ers and coaches’ classrooms or offices as well as cheering at sports events. Not only in moments of victory but also in moments of defeat and while practicing, athletes showed their pride in wearing Railroader maroon and blue. However, spirit was not reserved only for athletics. Many students exhibited att school spirit simply by feeling proud of their school, its appearance, and its motto, ‘“GHS Pride and Tradition.’’ Some showed their pride by participating in band, choirs, theater, student publica- tions, and other time-consuming extra- curricular activities, and some by simply being a part of the day-to-day routine that makes GHS unique.
