HOMECOMING Homecoming Highlights Fall Homecoming was once again a highlight of the fall social calendar during the week of September 19-23. The week’s activities began on Tuesday with the freshman slaves” serving their “masters by carrying books and doing other odd jobs. The freshmen were acutioned to the up- per classmen the previous week with the proceeds going to the Student Council to pay for pizza and pop which were served at the Homecom- ing Dance. Wednesday brought out a number of unusual costumes. Clowns, hobos, and students dressed as the opposite sex roamed through the halls. Thursday morning brought Sun- day clothes out of the closet for Dress-Up Day. Marshall speeches were given and afterwards the stu- dents returned to their classrooms to vote for a Marshall. The Marshall’s duties were to oversee coronation of the royalty that night and the parade the following day. The Marshall can- didates were: freshman, Jeff Sel- chcrt; sophomore, Lori Childs; ju- nior, Pam Kusser; and senior, Barry Knippling. The royalty were also chosen at this time from candidates Janell Houdek, Caly Cowan, Kim Williams, John Lusk, Guy Childs, and Sam Dancey. Coronation was held Thursday night. The 1983 King, Steve Peter- son, returned to crown the 1983 roy- alty. Music was provided by the high school band. Caly Cowan, the 1982 Marshall, introduced the 1983 Mar- shall, Barry Knippling, who then took over as master of ceremonies. King Guy Childs and Queen Kim Williams were crowned. The crown- bearers were Roxy Wheelhousc and K.C. Gregg. Entertainment was pro- vided by each class in the form of a skit based on a commercial. A high- light of the evening was the Pirate Defense's rendition of the Pepsi Light commercial in which the team proved that they could sing as well as they could play football. The traditional burning of the ‘H’ and a pep rally followed the coronation festivities. On Friday the students’ enthusi- asm and excitement showed as the classes built their mini-floats on the theme “Commercials” for the pa- rade. Friday night the Pirate fans came out to witness the Pirates’ victory over the Faulkton Trojans by a score of 12 to 6. The after-game disco and pizza party proved to be a successful com- bination as a large number of fans and the team celebrated the victory. Homecoming 7
