Indians Got Spirit Excitement was a feeling that could express the 1981 Homecoming. For the seniors it was their last, but for the sev- enth grade a new beginning. Students and their sponsors worked furiously through the week to finish their float for the class competition. According to the judges, the floats were so outstand- ing that it was tough to decide on the win- ning class. Finally after all the mind-bog- gling was over, the float “Milan’s Top Tunes to Victory” created by the seventh grade came out on top. On Friday afternoon the second annual “Powder Puff” football game took its place in the festivities. The Junior girls defeated the Seniors, 12-0. Bob Miller was crowned this year’s Homecoming King. More excitement was building up as the floats, queen candidates, and the band awaited anxiously in the parking lot for the parade to start. While waiting, students browsed around at each other’s floats making their own decision on who should win. The game itself showed the mighty Indians giving it their all as they hosted the South Dearborn Knights. Even though the Knights won the game 8-0, it took them a whole half before they scored. As halftime rolled in, excitement filled the air as everyone waited for the announcement of this year's Homecoming Queen and the winning float. The march- ing Indian band put on their halftime show and then came the moment everyone had waited for. A voice came from the press box announcing Miss Anita Maher Milan’s 1981 Homecoming Queen. After the game, students headed for the gym where they boogied” down to the music of Rockbound, sponsored by Stu- dent Council. The seventh grade's Milan's Top Tunes to Victory is this year's winning float. The long hours of practice pay off as the Milan High School Band plays Old MacDonald at the Homecom- ing game. h ts Thl Junior girls are victorious as they battle it out with the Seniors at the Powder Putt Football game.
