Megan Bailey, our Homecoming Queen, tours the field witJi a smile. Homecoming Proves Victorious On October 16th we hosted the Springfield Rams in our annual Homecoming Game. The game as well as the halftime activities proved to be very memorable. As usual last minute problems sprung up everywhere. The seniors had more th an half of their float to complete. The wind tore the sophomores float, The Boston Tea Party, which left them to the mercy of tape. To everyone ' s surprise the freshmen arrived with their float finished and unripped. The queens and their floats made their debut at half-time. The parade was complete with everything from Paul Revere to an au- thentic conestoga wagon, which proved to emphasize this year ' s Bicentennial theme. The queens were escorted across the field to receive their flowers and the band marched off, bringing the half- time program to an end. The football team returned to the field and finished the game with an outstanding score of 33-0. Francine Campagna rides the freshmen ' s winning float. Denise Hute leads the crowd with a cheer.

Seniors Dominate Spirit Week This year, the annual Spirit Week competition began on Novem- ber 16th, and proved to be one of the most exciting and unforget- able. Each class fought for the jug by competing in the customary competitions of white socks and sneakers day, blue and gray day, and the poster contest. The tricycle race, clothing drive and vol- leyball games were a few of the competitions added this year. The seniors clinched the lead from the beginning, although the freshmen and sophomores were not far behind. The juniors held back waiting for a chance to make their big move. As the week progressed the seniors held fast to their lead by winning the cloth- - ing drive, blue and gray day and red, white and blue day. The freshmen and sophomores battled for second place while the juniors were still scheming for their big move. When the classes entered the pep rally on the final day of com- petition the seniors were in a commanding lead. The sophomores made a desperate effort to overtake the seniors by winning the cheering and poster contests, but it was to no avail. The competi- tion came to a close with the Class of ' 77 retaining an unblemished record by winning the Spirit Jug for the fourth straight year. The Class of ' 80 finished in second place with the Class of ' 79 close be- hind for third. The Class of ' 78 took fourth place and decided to save their big move for next year ' s competition.
