People of all ages lined the streets of Hins- brook at 6:00 on Friday, September 26 in order to see Hinsdale South's annual Homecoming Parade. The parade, whose theme was “Mag- ic,” was led by the Hornet Marching Band and Hornet Honeys. Next the decorated club cars drove by with their catchy, “magical” slo- gans predicting the defeat of Crane High School. One of the event’s highlights included ♦he appearance of the Royal Float; Queen Donna DeFiore and her attendants smiled from a beautiful float. One major difference between 1985’s pa- rade and those of past years was the elimina- tion of the competitive class floats. Instead, each class displayed a creative banner in the parade dealing with the theme of “Magic.” The Underclassmen proudly carried their elaborate signs throughout the parade; the seniors, on the other hand, displayed an emp- ty banner! Why? It had disappeared. They claimed that it was “Magic.” That certainly was creative ingenuity at its best! The parade set the stage for a truly magical evening. HOMECOMING COURT Dressed in classically styled suits, the Homecoming Court displays elegance and poise. 10 HOMECOMING PARADE
