irit is flying high Next, Powder-Puff cheerleaders Den- ny McGill, Mark Kinney, Bronson Odem, Jon Leonard, and Mike Bodine entertained the crowd with their rendi- tion of Two Bits. The court was then announced by Ellen Felten. Members of the Varsity football team were recognized by coach Jim Kirkton. Several made comments on the following night ' s game, and thanked the coaching staff and fans for their help and support. The evening concluded after the varsity, junior varsity, and freshmen cheer- leaders mounted to the words of Stand- Up for the Bulldogs. A long awaited Friday morning ar- rived covered by a blanket of fog. Smiles crossed the faces of New Haven students as the radio announced a two hour delay. When we finally did get to school at 10:00, we had to attend only 15 minutes of our third hour classes before heading to the gym for a school pep session. This assembly began with students rising to their feet and clapping to the tune of Old New Haven. Next came a well-performed skit by aspiring actors, Mr. Stephan and company. Spirit week chairman Shelley Gillenwater then pre- sented junior Toby Beard with the Mr. Irresistable award, while senior Charlie Moore was announced as this year ' s Mr. Muscle. Also, the Senior class ' spirit chain, which measured nearly one-tenth of a mile, was proclaimed the winner. The sophomores came in a close second. Coronation committee chairman Sara Lopshire then introduced the homecom- ing court and their escorts. They are as follows: Freshman Andrea Gilley and Jeff Sowers; Sophomore Lisa Momper and Freddy Bredemeyer; Junior Rene Boschet and Matt Cheviron; and Seniors Mary Kiebel with Ernie Hoffman, LeAnn Tatman with Craig Fox, and Cyndi Romine with Drew Bates. RIDING THEIR FIRE truck in Homecom- ing Parade, Varsity and JV cheerleaders smile for the cameraman. Auxilary cheer- leaders were also on the truck. SHOWING HIS SPIRIT, senior Jeff Hauke dresses in f ull western attire on Monday. Jeff didn ' t get overly enthusiastic, howev- er, the gun is not loaded. REMARKABLY SURPRISED, senior Cyndi Romine is crowned 1983 Homecom- ing Queen by last year ' s queen Christa Swygart. This honor was given to her at a pep session. 12 — Homecoming

Pep, Power, and Pride The day passed slowly, but finally it was time to go home and grab something to eat before rushing back to view or par- ticipate in the parade. Highlights of the annual event were our Grand Marshall, Scott Tsueleff of WMEE, class and club floats, members of all football teams and cheerleaders on fire trucks, and the band. The parade route had to be changed at the last minute because of the train tracks, an event that kept Chairman Brenda Ehinger busy. She commented, It was a hassle, but it turned out well overall. The week ended Friday night with the game against the Columbia City Eagles (followed by the Homecoming Dance). This much awaited, all-important event started at 7:30 Friday night. People be- gan arriving long before that, however, to assure themselves good seats to watch New Haven take on and defeat the Ea- gles. Even from the start there wasn ' t much doubt that the ' Dogs would do just that. The players in purple and gold scored touchdown after touchdown, while hold- ing the Eagles to one. When the final seconds ticked off the clock, the score- board read New Haven 35, Columbia City 7. The Homecoming Dance, which fol- lowed the game, was the perfect end to an exciting, spirit-filled week. The stu- dents danced to the latest songs such as: Come On Feel the Noise, One Thing Leads to Another and many more. The dance was ended by the final slow song. This was not only the end of the dance, but the end of a super week that made us all proud to be Bulldogs. TOILET PAPER is a common sight around town Friday morning. Obviously the cheer- leaders didn ' t get much sleep. HERE THE LOVELY 1983 Homecoming Court show their spirit during the game against the Eagles. 14 — Homecoming
