■ EXP Homecoming Is . . Fun, Fantasy, The Homecoming activities began with a week of spirit rousing class competition. The revival of the traditional bonfire and pep rally the night before the game generated enthusiasm and helped create a festive atmosphere among the students and MHS alumni. Students worked diligently for two weeks organizing and building their respective class floats with the hopes of a victory. The Finale School was dismissed early for a pep assembly in the stadium and the Homecoming Parade. The band led the Homecoming court, floats, athletes, and a human serpentine through the streets of town. The climax of the week's excitement came at halftime of the game against the Burns Highlanders. Thelma Miller, senior, was crowned the 1974 Homecoming Queen. Her court, including Debbie Terrell, Lin- da Miller, Debbie Luhr, and their escorts were presented. The seniors were the happy winners of the float competition with the theme, “Hot Dog the Highlanders, and the MHS marching band performed a salute to the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney productions. After the game, students and alumni gathered in the cafeteria for a dance with music provided by the “Rising Tide.” ABOVE: Head coach Mert Barth concentrates on the action during the Homecoming game.
