V ' .5 VHOMECOMQNG hat a birthda celebration. Better late than never seems appropriate for Hays Hi h's one- hundreth birthday party. Cefebrated at Homecoming, the anniversary gave the yearly tradition of Homecoming an even more nostalgic flavor. The week started off with the usual class competitions, called the Homecoming games, with class members contending for wins in contests such as Volkswagen pushing and watermelon eating. Fift to 60 alumni had a chance to Hketch up on all the news on Friday when principals Larr Roberts, Cary Herman and Mike Karfand members of the Athletic Booster Club cooked 3000 hamburgers for an all-school barbeque. The first-time event was sponsored by a newly-formed alumni association. At the usual Homecomin assembly where royalty are introguced, an unusual twist occurred when the two oldest alumni who could attend were introduced with their wives. Bill johnson and Dr. Clair Wilson, Class of 1914, got a standing ovation and whistles of appreciation as they and their wives came from the senior section to the stage in the gym. As they spoke softly into mikes about old times at Hays High, the large crowd sat forward to catch their words, strangely quiet in respect. The assembly was one of the most popular events of Homecoming. That was the best thing It was very well done, said Curtis Weilert lr. Sophomore Betsy Dinges said That was great. It couldn't have been done better. lf the bonfire on Thursday wasn't enough to fire up everyone, after the Craig Fisher, Mike Horton, Greg Stremel and Duane Mader receive balloons, to release at kick-off, from Madelyn Peters, a member of Athletic Booster Club which supplied the balloons.
