Homecoming 13 Student Council members lead the Homecoming Parade dressed as characters from the WIZARD OF OZ. The freshman-sophomore team didn’t stand a chance against the power of the junior-senior team in Powder Puff. The juniors hope to get the message across to Crown Point in their hall decorations for Spirit Week. BITE BULLDOGS BULLET

Sophomores begin work on their entry in the float decorating contest. Each entry had to be based on a cartoon character. Junior Dave Schutz and senior Kelly Roseberry try to eat enough cup¬ cakes to put their class in first place in the cake eating contest. The senior class eventually won. Senior spirit wins Homecoming was planned with a cartoon theme and began with the annual Spirit Week activities. The senior class dominated by winning not only the spirit stick but also taking first prize in the cake-eating contest at the pep session. Senior Royce Brown was also voted the “Senior with the Sexiest Legs.” The Industrial Education float, decorated with Fred Flintstone characters, won first place in the club category in float competition. The freshman class won the class division with their float theme of Heathcliff. The most creative window was painted by Theatre Arts members at the Toggery. Mickey Mouse was their cartoon theme. Continuing their drive for spirit, the j unior-senior team won Powder Puff with a score of 28-0. Senior Larry Miller was crowned Homecoming King at the game. By the end of the week, senior spirit was high, but the overall mood was not optimistic as we became ready to meet Crown Point. Tweety Bird was just one of the cartoon characters used for decorations for the Homecoming Dance. 12 Homecoming

Trent Depel chats with the Cowardly Lion, a part of the Homecoming theme. The Red Devils run to score their first and only touchdown. Homecoming night has problems Although an overwhelming Home¬ coming victory was unlikely, the Red Devils played hard against their rival, Crown Point. Unfortunately, they lost 28-6. The Homecoming Dance had its problems, too. It had a theme, “Car¬ toons on Parade”, but for a while, it looked like it would be a dance with¬ out a band. Fast thinking by Student Council members avoided disaster. They supplied a stereo system and re¬ cruited Jeff Kormendy to play re¬ cords. Half-time activities were more fes¬ tive. Senior athletes and their parents were honored. Senior Renee Delapaz was crowned Homecoming Queen, and her court, composed of represen¬ tatives from each class, was present¬ ed. Fan support was not its strongest since few expected a win against a tough Crown Point team. 14 Homecoming
