Two strategic days off, a crisp blue sky, and the enthusiasm and friendship only homecoming can evoke made Home- coming 7967 something to be remembered twenty-five years later. The honored Class of '43 alumni renewed old friendships and entered into the spirit of homecoming with a luncheon, pep rally, skit, dinner-dance, and float which featured their undefeated, unscored-upon football team. Teachers' Institute and Columbus Day provided two much- appreciated and well-used days for frantic float-builders. Farmland Frolics, culminating months of planning, offi- cially began with the Queens' Preview, Settlers' Sweet- hearts. Queen nominees waited anxiously for the results of the election to be announced at the Friday night pep rally, Flaisin' the Roof. Queen Barb Binder reigned over the parade, Pace Through Plentiful Prairies. It was held early Saturday morning to allow winning floats, from the Forum, the Junior Class, and Theatre Board, to travel to BB where the game was held be- cause of construction on Emmond Field. After almost four anxious quarters of stalemate, the home-away-from-home game, Plow Down the Demons, ended in victory for the Lions over Maine East, 7-O, with a touchdown in the last seconds of play. The honors reaped, the semi-formal dance, Golden l-larvest, concluded the week of festivities of Homecoming l967.
