Awarding of the spirit rock to the seniors at a pep session and the announcement of the best float added to the competitive atmosphere. Dressed in the familiar Governor tuxedo, the Stu¬ dent Association President presented the homecom¬ ing court during half-time and announced the new queen, Miss Marsha Hunt. Crowned with a tiara by last year’s queen, Jan Rogowski, Marsha was pre¬ sented with a dozen red roses. Floats and decorated cars added to the excitement of homecoming. The seniors’ winning float theme, “Gov’s Got Soul,” portrayed a huge black shoe ready to crush an East Chicago Roosevelt football player. The junior float theme, “Catch ’Em in Our Trap,” portrayed a gigantic mouse trap with four Volks- wagons decorated like mice following behind. ADDING THE FINAL FLOWERS to a decorated car, a group of seniors prepares an entry for the homecoming parade. LAST MINUTE ADJUSTMENTS are made to the giant spiked football shoe by Dave Eberle and Cathie Whitney. Built by seniors, “Gov’s Got Soul received the award for the best float. 7
