Knights crown The coronation became the climax of the variety show. Spot- lights shone on the royalty as they paraded up the center aisle. Former king and queen, Pat Picasso and Nikki Ellerbreok, walked up for the second time - this time to give away their crowns. The crowd listened attentively. The crowd then cheered as Mr. Lorang named Jim Viereck and Mary Ellen Doyle the king and queen. Viereck, Doyle Twelve years ago, Father Eng- lert graduated from O'Gorman High. He returned to help celebrate the Knights' homecoming by per- forming mass. Father Englert said he enjoyed the music and singing the most.

5 . if- , J ,Qt l L. A variety of talent continues The homecoming festivities began with the variety show and coronation. Students and faculty members revealed their talents under the spotlight. Donna Faini, a sophomore, performed a jazz dance. Donna started dancing 12 years ago. She teaches dance at Tanglefoot Studio for the younger kids. She says it's a good experience. Performing a different type of dance, Missy Mapes and Jeanne Barnett did a modern routine which symbolized good versus evil. Pat Donahue and Dan Brown played guitars. Even the teachers showed their talents by playing Faculty Feud . Father Cimpl played the part of Richard Dawson. The teams consisted of O wing versus G wing teachers. Questions included, Where in O'G does the most learning take place? Answers varied from Mr, Lindner's room, to the correct answer of the G wing bathroom. The Senior girls dressed up in football team jerseys, with Barb Schaeffer playing Bob Burns. Dan Boyum's Death Defying Feats included juggling eggs, a ball, and an egg and an orange at the same time. The M.C.s, Janelle Ranek, Jill Connelly and Matt Norris kept things running smoothly between acts with a humorous storyline continued throughout the show. Janelle, excited about the upcoming homecoming dance, hoped she would be the lucky girl Steve Johnston would ask. When she found out Steve had already asked Jill, Janelle tried unsuccess- fully to get her revenge with Matt acting as a mediator between the two. 83
