Betsy Brown tapes streamers on the cheerleading car. Homecoming parade day meant a day of decorating and cut¬ ting classes. Resting dancers Fran Graninger and John Atkins take a break to listen to the music of Church. Where’s the tape? ... Go get more orange streamers! Shouts and excited screams flew out when students decorated for the homecoming parade. Missing study hall and other classes in¬ spired us to work even harder. The parade began by marching down to Maury Stadium with cheers of encouragement for the football players. The GAA financ¬ ed the band and decorated the gym all week trying to create a cir¬ cus atmosphere. The theme, “Under JM’s Big Top” added to the music of Church. Winning the game by slashing Culpeper 28 to 8 put more excitement into the ful¬ ly packed weekend. The night of the dance provided maybe a new date or experimenting with a new kind of drink. “Honeycomb” Williams and Anita Terrell were crowned King and Queen, while Beth Merchent and Bernard Robinson were honored as Prince and Princess. Tired and worn out we left the dance with a variety of parties to attend or going out to eat. The weekend was over with many good memories and thrills. Skillfully cutting out a circus clown, Maria Snellings works hard in preparation for the dance. Our time 17
