Exciting, Colorful Homecoming Parade Leacls Students into Active Social Season Carton loads of paper carnations, drying posters, and miles of crepe paper heralded the opening of Kelvyn Park's 1965-66 social season. The event naturally was the schoolis annual Homecoming game and dance scheduled for October 22. Despite the pressures of their school work, students found time to spend on preparing the girls gym and their cars for the big day. Talented artists turned the gym into a festive black and gold colored ballroom. From the top of ,the bandstand, a huge panther gleamed. Topping his head was the traditional school beanie. Sadly enough, our hard-playing team lost to Crane, but Rita Cardona's gleam at halftime when she accept! ed her crown and led the exciting parade brought some cheer into the long anticipated afternoon. Rita joined football star Warren Johnson-elected Homecoming king-and her court Joan Aubin, Rose- mary Hardy, Judy Heider, and Lori Meshulam at the evening dance. There they all received flowers from Principal Dr. Wesley Amar and Assistant Principal Mr. Philip Brownstein, and led the dancing couples into the festive evening. STUDENT COUNCIL president an-d football player George Weber crowns the elated 'Rita Cardona as Homecoming Queen.
