Tradition alive Students 'Cherish' memories of traditional Homecoming, enjoy fun week of festivities Homecoming, that age -old tradition, returned to NHS this fall. Complete with the usual festivities the week long event also had a parade, dress-up days, a bonfire, and a variety of spirit raising events. I really enjoyed Homecoming week because there was something fun happening every day and everyone was in high spirits all week long, stated sophomore Holly Schiffgen. Thursday night's bonfire brought spirit to an all-time high following the volleyball game. The Lady Panthers were defeated by Grand Island, but they did not let the loss dampen their spirits, nor did it stop them from supporting the football players. “The bonfire was a lot of fun, said junior Gary Frederick. It really got me fired-up for the football game. High spirits continued on through Friday night when the Panthers defeated Beatrice in a 35 -12 Homecoming victory. During halftime Jodi Sekutera and Tim Kuck were crowned 1986 Homecoming king and queen. I thought it was the best Homecoming I've been to. The music was great which made the dance really fun, commented senior Kim Hart. On Monday, many people were tired from the week's activities. Some were sad that it was over, and others had already started planning for next year. -J. Becker 16y Homecoming 1986 Homecoming candidates.

A i m Work takes up most most of my time when I am not in school, at least on weeknights. I really do not like work having more priority than school work, but I know it does because I spend more time at work than I do on school work. Then when I come home from work, I'm usually too tired to do my homework. -Terri Hively A V. My spare time is occupied mostly by sports-practices and games. I also spend time with my friends. Music also takes a big part of my time. Some activities have priority over others, but right now school work is more important because education is stressed so much today. -Natasha Siores Q ■ What do the foreign exchange students add to our school? A m Foreign exchange students add 'color' to our school. They can give us more knowledge about their countries and culture. Likewise, we can share with them our culture. -Ranelle Tighe A i ■ They give us an idea of what things are like in their countries. I never knew anything about Finland before I met Kaisa Mustonen this year. Now I want to know everything about all other countries because I realize there are so many differences, as well as similarities, among all countries. -Terri Hively C) ■ How do you relax on on the weekends after a tough week of school? A ■ I go out with my boyfriend or friends and go to a movie, ‘cruise main,' or go to a football or basketball game. I just do something fun that I don't have to think about doing. -Terri Hively A l . My friends and I get together and just relax. We talk and just let everything out. I also enjoy listening to music. -Natasha Siores -L. Thelander
