Homecom- ing King Bob Zabek and his escort Kathy Sarang observe the crowning of Class Royalties at the Valentine ' s Day Dance. Homecoming diminishes February blahs Nothing strikes harder than the mid-winter blahs. Everyone be¬ comes anxious for spring. To add a little gusto to the stifled activities of February, Student Association, in coordination with the Pom Pon girls, sponsored a Basketball Home¬ coming. It was less eventful than fall Homecoming. Flyers, telling a little about the five senior candidates including a picture of each, were distributed to every homeroom. Voting proce¬ dures to elect Class Royalties, a boy and girl from each class, and King followed in homeroom. The crowning of the King by Sandy Dietzman highlighted the half-time. Bob Zabek and court reigned over the Valentine ' s Day dance which followed the game. There, the disclosure of Class Roy¬ alties took place. Did this newly introduced affair turn-out as hoped? Cyndi Halcarz remarked, It turned-out better than we expected. We heard stu¬ dents talking about how stupid a king was, and we felt there would be no student support. During half-time though, everyone remained in the stands watching. 17

' Glamour of Yesteryear’ revives golden era Flashback: Jean Harlow, Betty Grable, Humphrey Bogart, the Marx Brothers, Clark Gable. The Ziegfeld Girls starring on Broadway. Night¬ clubs featuring Big Name Bands — 1930, the “golden era. All these and other memorabilia of the 30 ' s were revived December 14, the date of this year ' s Winter Formal, Glamour of Yesteryear. Murals and wall shilhouettes de¬ picting the movie musicals and chorus lines transformed the cafe¬ teria into a ballroom scene. Seating arrangements really had us worried. We didn ' t think seats for 230 couples could be found, commented Theresa Philips, associ¬ ate director of the program. Although the formal ended at 11:00 p.m., the evening wasn ' t com¬ pletely over. Couples traveled to area restaurants for dinner. I didn ' t get home until 4:00 a.m. I sure am tired. The following day was an official day of rest for those who chose to attend. DONALD EDDY
