l75 Homecoming: sunshine, smiles Homecoming 75 was a first for Grosse Pointe North; it did not rain. Sunshine heightened the spirits of Norsemen as they came out to view the floats, the court and the Norsemen victory. The float competition was held differ- ently this year. The Hoats were judged in two categories: the best representation of the Bicentennial theme and the best all around Hoar. The Seniors captured first place with their giant eagle. However, the Juniors were the top prize winners of the day; their Bicentennial birthday cake took first for best all around Hoat. Once again, the Homecoming court was presented during half-time. The Senior court beamed with beauties: Sally Moore, Mary Ann Daskas, and Beth Williams. The Junior class chose Mindy Study and Janet Fisher while Sophomores Ann Van Vliet and Marilyn Mitasik radiated their court. Wendy Tuck and Carla Moorhead brightened the class of 795 court. The climax of the half-time festivities came with the crowning of Mary Ann Daskas as 1975 Homecoming Queen. Rob Seski presented Mary Ann with her crown and a gold pendant. The crowds cheered and the bleachers rumbled as the Norsemen won a victory over the Lakeview Huskies. Many alumni were in attendance for this victory against this rival. T0 cap oil the day, the Homecoming dance was held in the gaily bedecked cafeteria. This years theme was How Sweet It Is by James Taylor.

Pam Powers creates a disturbance in The Chalk Clein, Bob Ireland and Vicki Nasser. Garden while lunching with Russ Seally, Cathy Theatre adds culture, Into the late hours of the evening one can hear the bustle of show business on Northis dimly lighted stage. Many long, hard hours go into a single production; just ask Mr. Gael Barr, director of Theatre North. Theatre North presented five productions in the T75- ,76 season. The plays were varied from a murder mystery to a hilarious comedy. October was mystery month with Dial M for Murder and The Chalk Garden performed on two consecutive weekends. Next came a Woody Allen comedy, Don't Drink the Water, to heighten the winter. The classic Cyrano ale Bergerac was the February production. This famous tragedy, with its cast of 40, i1- lustrates the sad story of a man with too much nose. The Final production was Butterflies Are Free. Set in the present day, the play is a comic view of a young blind manis love with a tender young girl. A comedy is a happy note on which to end the Theatre North season. It reminds all the cast members, set builders and helpers of the happy moments involved. Bill Hosbein shows David Nicholson who's 11055 in Cyrano.
