A week long party The Happy Daze craze hits LHS, and students and faculty go all out for a memorable Homecoming. BY SANDRA CARVER Homecoming week is the one week out of the year when students, given less homework, let loose. To start with, the halls were decorated during the weekend. The fifties idea, from a giant jukebox in senior hall to records hang- ing from the ceiling in the junior hall and the cafeteria, dominated the decorations. As Theresa Culp says, Homecoming was a success this year. Some of it was a lot of hard work, but it was a lot offunf, Dress up days let everyone participate in Homecoming. These days included college shirt, uniform, class colors, Hawaiian, and Purple and White Day. Wednesday, for class colors, all the classes had their own t-shirts. Senior Dennis Smith said of the t-shirts, f'They were a senior tradition and I think it should have stayed that way. The seniors' shirts showed off their extra- curricular activities, while the sophomores had a lot of problems with their final design. The parade and bonfire were cancell- ed on Thursday due to rain, but the ad- ministration extended the pep rally on Friday to incorporate the bonfire. Then the floats went on that night, with the freshmen winning with their theme, The Legend Begins. The Royal Assembly went well. Wen- di Anderson said, During the Royal Assembly, which was my favorite part of Homecoming, one could feel the ex- citement in the gym and how close the Top 20 were to each other. The Top 20 included Pam Vunovich, Shannon Swanger, Linda Popovich, Heidee Perry, Jill Hoffman, Shannon Fit- zgerald, Holly Clark, Teresa Basso, Lisa Brandi, Russ Rosenbaum, Phil Hilliard, Scott Warner, Jim Wallace, Casey Roebuck, Tim Pifer, Steve Rojeck, John Bradley, and Darrell Johnson. Queen and king were Jennie Wytko and Mike Cuccaro. As Phil Hilliard put it, It's an honor to be on Top 20 and it was a lot of fun because of the extra activities I got to dof' Last but not least was the Homecom- ing Dance on Saturday night. Sponsored by Pom Pon and D.J .ed by music Ex- pressj, the dance was a huge success. And so, Lakeview's Homecoming tradi- tion goes on... l2!Homecoming Look, Mom, no hands.

Xi 4 BY SANDRA CARVER Happy Daze, the theme of this year's Homecoming, describes well the mood during the entire week. The three main competitions helped it along. On Wednesday everyone filed into the gym for the big Class Games. Spirit was the biggest part of it. Freshman Theresa Culp noticed, Dur- ing the games, everyone supported their class and had a lot of spirit. At one point a group of about 20 seniors with their Brew Crew Il, The Final Chapter sign did a cheer on the floor between games. However, they were penalized five points for their enthusiasm as they tore down the juniors' sign. Some of the games were banana eat- off, Mello-Yello guzzle, pudding slurp, balloon wheelbarrow race, mummy wrap and the basketball bloop. The tug- of-war was exciting as it came down to the freshmen vs. the seniors. It was the seniors' biggest triumph of the day because in the end, they ended the tradi- tion of being the winners as the juniors easily took first place. As one senior, Todd Moore, remembers, The seniors should have wonf' Wednesday night was the big Powder Puff football game. The purple Bad to the Bone seniors played the white underclass Undies, For another year, the seniors, coached by Larry Hulce, were triumphant 34--O. Friday's big game against Sturgis was more than just a Homecoming game. In 1984 Sturgis had handed the Spartans their only loss, so it was a chance to get even. Darrell Johnson, a senior tri- captain, said, It was our most intense game. We were intent on winning it. The Spartan players came through with an exciting win, 14--8. Along with all the activities of Homecoming, the competiton during the week makes it so much fun, bringing classes and teams closer together. 1 4! Homecoming 'vim ASQ. , i i Winning beginnings.
