The pep session included our own barber- shop quartet consisting of four teach- ers. Steve Beights, Steve Clough, Ever- ette Hornbarger and Ken McGuire. Everything merged to reach a climax, the Homecoming game on Friday night. Homestead Spartans verse their old rival Elmhurst Trojans. Besides the game, seniors won first place on their float while sophomores took first place with the spirit bell. The queen and her court paraded around the track while 1 the band paraded on the field. The drum majors presented their state tro- I y fx phy to the school at halftime also. But back to the game. It was close and the crowd was restless. In the last few seconds of the game home fans had run down by the field in anticipation of a victory. The touchdown was made and the final score was 13-12.

Girls! Girls! Girls? Powderpuff? What is powderpuff? Some would say it is a puff girls put powder on with. Others would confuse it with creampuff and say it is some- thing to eat. But, the Homestead girls know better. It's their chance to play football in the limelights. Amidst senior jeff McDermott's jokes and senior Mike Ohara's partial scores the senior girls trampled over the junior girls 18-O. Senior Kathy Chappell made the first touchdown of the game. At half time the score was 6-0. The half time show consisted of the referees throwing a football, the pep band playing, the cheerleaders dancing and the announc- ers making their jokes. In the second half senior Paula Anastasia and senior Kathy Chappell both made six points. However, if these girls would have concentrated on the voices of the announcers instead of football they may have been on the ground suffering from an attack of laughter. junior Tom Shaw, injured earlier in a football game, was limping down the steps of the bleachers on his crutches when jeff's voice rang through the stadium along with an outburst of laughter from the crowd, saying, Spartan football player Tom Shaw. We can rebuild him! We can make him better than he was! Even though the humor of the senior guys was displayed over the intercom the bodies of four junior men and one senior were being displayed on the track below. The famous lopsided cheerleaders showed off their dancing techniques and acrobatic skills. ' Senior Candy Sembach said, We won because we worked as a team and we also had an advantage because it was our second year. I thought every- one enjoyed it and l hope the tradition of powderpuff continues for a long time. Sure it sounds crazy but it's Home- stead! All of these crazy events merged together to create a memorable evening for everyone involved. 2:43 Q 1 f -' n ' .5ug.hA.- 'K eg. ink' 22-POWDERPUFF junior Yvonnne Coulter awaits return into game as she helplessly watches her team go to defeat. juniors and seniors prepare to pit their s against one another in the final minutes of play The senior girls huddle to discuss their moves before returning to the line. 9 I
