Homecoming 1970 Although losing to the Triton Trojans 25-13 in the Homecoming game, the Norse spirit continued in high gear throughout the Homecoming festivities. A bonfire was held two days preceding the game from 7:00 to 9;30. After the bonfire was lit, everyone gathered in the gym for a pep rally, then went out and enjoyed the blaze again. A dance, sponsored by the Student Council, was held after the game. The Electric Circus, from Ball State provided the musical entertainment. The dance was enjoyed by both high school and junior high students from Northfield and Triton.

Counterpoint: Three One Act Ploys The 1970-71 Dramatics season started off with 3 one act plays collectively entitled COUNTERPOINT. First to be presented was The Ugly Duckling , a fairy tale with a moral. The plot was that a princess who is noted for being plain marries a prince with a similar problem. Thurber Sketches were the next to be presented. These were short selections of James Thurber. Some were funny, some sad, and some were serious. Last of the presentations was The Interview . This play was unique. The actors not only had to pantomime but they had to be showed man ' s incapa- bilities to communicate with his fellow men.
