q , 18 Homecoming Homecoming 1979 This year, there was a change in the Homecoming Dance. Instead of just an ordinary Homecoming dance, it was combined with the Junior Ring Dance. The Homecoming-Ring Dance had a very large turnout. The band, Howard Scott and the MVP's, was fabulous! Pictures could be tak- en of couples by a professional pho- tographer for only a dollar. There were drinks sold by the SCA, while Juniors continued to sign up at the door for the ring ceremony. The gym was decorated by the door-decorat- ing posters from the contest earlier that day. At the intermission, Juniors were called up one at a time to receive their rings. The dance was an evening of ceremony for the Ju- niors, excitement for the Freshman as thelr first dance at Glass, cher- ished by the Seniors as their last Homecoming Dance, and thorough- ly enjoyed by the Sophomores as a special dance with many more to follow. Dr. Wright and Heritage representative pass the Jug. Anne Page and Tommy Whisnant boogie down at the begin- ning of the evening. A slow dance catches these couples in action.
