Entertaining at halftime Dennis Wojcie- chowski plays the xylophone for the GHS band under the direction of Mr. Small.

4 ifitf Dance Adds More to Fun Griffith has won the Homecoming game against Calumet and students head for the last homecoming activity of the year, the dance. As the students walk to the upstairs gym they see the gym transformed into an exciting dance floor. Some students run to join their friends in the latest dance moves and to exchange stories about the events of the evening. Other students take a spot along the wall to watch for that special person they want to dance with. The music played at the Homecoming dance varied from slow to fast rock and more modern music played, also. Junior Dave Nash said, “I really thought the dance was great, and the music that was played made it really good. The music for the dance was provic ed by Terry Hansen. The Varsity Club sponsored the Homecoming dance. Mr. Les Thornton, Varsity Club sponsor said, “I thought the Homecoming dance went really well, and it has traditionally for the past six or seven years. I felt the music was very good. The students all behaved well, and there just weren ' t any problems. The Homecoming dance brought in about 400 to 450 students. Freshmen were invited, also. The dance ended at 11:15, instead of 1 1 :00 which it has ended in the past few years. After the dance ended, many students returned to their homes. Some students went out for a quick bite to eat or to a friend ' s house to celebrate the big victory. Give it to me! Junior Mitch Marcus runs to get a handoff from quarterback John Lynk to see how far he can take it. Sounding Good. The marching band plays long and loud during the game to get the crowd and players rowdy. Homecoming- 13-
