Lee Brown 1976 HOMECOMING QUEEN CLOCKWISE ABOVE: Nominees and their escorts: Betsy Snoots and Philip Sandifer, Shannon Sayles and Bobby Day, Mary-Margaret Bennett and Greg Sims, Carolyn Bettis and George Dunlap, Jill McKenzie and Doug Chestnut. BELOW: ‘‘Congratulations,!’’ Dean Flowers embraces winner Lee Brown as Mary-Margaret Bennett and Greg Sims lend support. Queen crowned by SC president at Homecoming Three points made all the differ- ence in the mood of the crowd at the Homecoming dance. A squeaky 3-0 victory over North Mesquite produced a gasp of relief from Scot fans as a fourth-quarter score on a muddy field kept the Scots in the race for the dis- trict title. During half-time at the game, the Homecoming Queen nominees were driven around the field in convertibles and introduced to the crowd with their fathers. After the game, everyone walked to the girls’ gym and danced until midnight to the music of ‘‘Flight.”’ The theme of ‘The Long and Wind- ing Road” was depicted by a giant mural covering the south wall. On the painting, a winding road led to a bright castle in the horizon. Shining clouds with the nominees’ names surrounded the throne. Dancing stopped at eleven for the crowning of the queen. The nominees were escorted down ‘“‘The Long and Winding Road”’ to their favorite songs. Student Council President Mark Srere crowned Lee Brown the 1976 Home- coming Queen, and the dance contin- ued for another hour. Homecoming @ 23
