“Each class put forth a valiant effort,” said Student Council sponsor, Mr. Robert Krol, “but the seniors proved their dominance.” The battle of the classes did not stop there, as students from each class competed for costume awards for the various dress up days. On Monday, athletes entered the halls when juniors Dan and Heather Beck won the award for the day. Tuesday was a day for “lounging around and Karl Wilhelm demonstrated this abili- ty best by wearing pajamas, slippers, and a housecoat for “Come As You Are Day.” Wednesday, School Colors Day, some students returned to semi-normal. There were ex- ceptions however, as the day’s award winner, Charlie Heflin, painted his face and hair blue and red for the day. On Thursday, junior John Walker showed his ability to age quickly in his award winning costume on Old People Day. On Friday, students donned parents ' old clothes for 50s and 60s Day and Stuart Harris won the day ' s award. At the Homecoming game the students learned if their spirit ef- forts had paid off. The underclassmen were disap- pointed as the senior class was announced the winner of the Spirit Jug, but most took the loss in stride. The competition was fun, but winning or losing really didn ' t matter, junior Heather Beck said. “We all enjoyed it and that’s what counts.” DURING “ COME AS YOU ARE DAY” sophomore Wally Kil prepares to cook during the normal part of the day in Foods.

BASKETBALL IN THE GYM AND DANCING IN THE LUNCHROOM A tradition was kept, but also created SOPHOMORE representatives, 1985 KING John Foreman wat- Wayne Stoll and Dana Vanco, were ches his sister, Ginny, get a hug from chosen by their class for the John Willems as she is named 1986 Homecoming Court Homecoming Queen. fter a rousing victory by the boys varsity basketball team over LaCrosse, the mood was set for celebration. Instead of having the dance in the gym as in years past, it was held in the cafeteria. A place usually fill- ed with kids chattering loudly as they devoured dollar lun- ches, the room transformed into a dimly lit dance hall. A slice of history was imported through the wide selection of music ranging from the Golden Oldies pile with Elvis Presley to Morris Day and the Time, by D.J. Bob Webber. In fine Homecoming tradi- tion, the King and Queen, seniors Ginny Foreman and Mike Holobawski were crowned midway through the dance. “I was proud that I won, even though I didn ' t really ex- pect to,” Holobawski said. “All the guys who were nominated were popular and I thought we all had a good chance to win. I was pleased and it made me feel good about myself. Being elected Homecoming King is a pretty big honor.” For about 1 5 seconds, the royal couple had their private dance, then the rest of the people attending joined them on the dance floor. Even after the clock struck the midnight hour, turning the magical night of February 6 into the morning of February 7, the music still played loud- ly. However, another Homecoming had ended, leaving the Student Council and a few other good-willed people to clean up momen- tos in the form of balloons and paper streamers.
