HOMECOMI NG On Friday night, November 14, 1958, the students of Oaktown High School were eagerly looking forward to the selection and crowning of the queen as the climax to their annual Homecoming Day activities. At last, the time had come. Girls from the student council, lovely in their ballerina length and various colored formals met the members of the basketball squad and formed an archway through which members of the queen's party entered. Little Tamara Tolan, as flower girl, entered on the right and met Douglas Younce who carried the golden crown on a small pillow. They were followed by Miss Barbara Rogers, Freshman, who was dressed in a red floor-length formal. Miss Peggy Trosper, Sophomore representative, wearing white came next and then Miss Julia Garner, Junior, in pink, and lastly, Miss Karen Wolfe, Senior, also wearing white. Each took their re- spective position and Bob Bond, Basketball Captain, stepped forward and opened the envelope containing the name of the girl chosen to be queen. Amid much suspense and excitement he turned and placed the crown on Karen's head, also giving her a kiss and the bouquet of red roses. A large roar of applause from the spectators signified their approval. Karen, as queen, took the basketball and giving it a small bounce christened it for the 1958-59 season. Led by Tamara and Doug, Bob then took her arm and escorted her again through the archway and entirely around the gym floor. They were followed by the other three girls now serving as the queen's attendants, and finally they took their positions on the throne erected in the balcony. Behind the throne was a huge white crown outlined in green, thus making a beautiful background for the queen and her party. Each girl was very lovely and any school could well be proud to have either one of them as their queen but the Seniors of 1958-59 were especially proud and happy to have their entry Karen as their queen of this season.
