For two years in a row, Grandview has been rain-soaked leaving parades interrupted and homecoming games dampened. All morning, October 8, the weather played its' uncertain games-alternately becoming still, then windy, then clear, then rainy, or any combination of the above. But just in time, the clouds sudden- ly parted and the parade began. It was very much a success-the football team, the parade, the game. The only question was the weather and it finally cooperated for the most part, Larry Downing, vice- principal, said. But, just as the drill team marched into the Grandview parking lot, huge drops of rain be- gan splattering Windshields, and blue and gold crepe paper started drooping and flattening against trucks and cars. And this was only the beginning. By the middle of the afternoon the rain had evolved into a full- fledged thunderstorm, complete with a lightening show and an electrical blackout. sw . -Alison Mainhart -Alison Mainhart All floats, including the first- place Latin Club float, were de- stroyed. After long hours of work and toil, it was sad to see the floats spoil, Ganesh Gupta, Student Council president, said. Then, by some miraculous act of God or Mother Nature, the rain once again stopped about an hour before the game began, leaving a soggy football field and six demolished floats. And, although the field was too muddy for the traditional parade of the homecoming queen and her attendants each stepped proudly onto the field, high heels digging deeply into the mud, and listened as the 1982 homecoming queen, Rebecca Wachter, and her attendants, Lynn McDowell, seniorg Nancy Nisson, junior, and Becky Nisson, sophomore were introduced to the crowd. Homecoming 1982-in the end, it was a success -Julie Varner
