Intense heat shot out like a crack of a whip and forced people back as the bonfire soared higher and higher. With the sky ablaze and the crowd shouting, Homecoming festivities got under way. Cheers of approval exploded from the stands filled with booster block members, anxious parents, and inquisitive bystanders as Seniors Tom Blink and Debbie Moor were crowned King and Queen. Although it was dreary, windy, and misty, the weather did not dampen the Trojans’ spirits during the Homecoming parade. Floats that had dissolved into nothingness and students in soggy costumes were centered around “Walt Disney World”, the 1972 Homecoming theme. Seniors shone with a feeling of pride as their class float captured first place for the third consecutive year. Wanting to hear the ring of the victory bell and also break their losing streak, the football team fought for a 7-6 victory over the Merrillville Pirates. After the game, an Alumni Coffee hour ended the ’72 Homecoming activities. Homecoming Rain, cold fails daunting senior spirit King and queen Tom Blink and Debbie Moor beam with happiness as they begin their reign. Last minute touches by juniors Don Moffett, Jim Middleton, and Mike Jezuit complete the class float in time for the parade. 12 Homecoming
