Homecoming activities change with age Jersey day, powder puff football, spirit week, and initia¬ tion, each contributed a part to the festivities of the 1973-74 Homeconming. For the first time this year, students participated in a uni¬ fied effort to help express the school spirit buried w ' ithin each individual. Variation from past traditions added a touch of something different to the annual homecoming presentation. The Class of 74 took the spirit trophy in scoring the high¬ est points in hall decoration and float competition with the winning slogan Wooden Shoe like an LC Victory? . The Ju¬ nior Class expressed their school spirit in out yelling the other classes in the N-Teens Veil Contest. New this year was the nomination of four seniors for Homecoming queen with the traditional court made up of one representative from each of the other classes. The an¬ nual homecoming dance also strayed from the past tradi¬ tion . Instead of an exclusively couple affair, the entire stu¬ dent body was invited to the come as you are (except for jeans) occassion. “Tip a Canoe and Warriors too was the catchy slogan displayed by the third place junior Class float. Althought the annual Homecoming dance was open to individual students, couples were still in the majority. The Class of 74 took Homecoming honors by winning the first place trophy in float and hall competitions. Homecoming spirit was exhibited by each class as representatives from the class of 77 proudly display the game hoop. 22
