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

.45 ' mm othlng Something familiar. Something peculiar. Something for everyone, a comedy tonight. What's the something? lt's The Show. Homestead's Variety Show was presented to over 500 on March 23 and 2-t in the auditorium. It had everything from 1020's acts to 1970's acts. The Show exposed talents of students that surprised several people. There was singing. dancing. bands. acting. and even pantomiming. With over 50 people involved and 17 differ- ent acts being performed. it gave The Shown quite a variety of people and types of entertainment to satisfy several different tastes. Senior Greg Otis said, 'The Show gave the performers, as well as the audience. a wider realm of opportuni- ties. While some people would not feel comfortable drinking with a rubber chicken or participating in a band. they were still able to be involved in an act such as the 'Soundsationsf In this way The Shown succeeded where the musicals failed. 'The Show was a big success, stated director Mrs. Kathy deCalonne. This was proven by the response of the students with their attendance and the congratulations that was offered to the performers after each show. I think it was an outstanding production consid- ering the amount of time the students had to put their acts together. com- mented junior Kurt Miller. I am look- ing forward to next year's show.
