Seniors Feature The Creatures By Dawn Hottingcr A gory skeleton and a penguin snatcher were among the entries featured at the OHS campus Monday morning as Homecoming festivities began. Led by candidates Jennie Lenhoff and Ron Corkin, the seniors brought an eerie feeling to school. Cobwebs, bats, and skeletons adorned the senior float. The scene was a genuine haunted house built of worm-eaten wood, tattered drapes, mystical eyes flashing in the window and a cemetery in the front yard. For the Class of ’83, the rain and wind worked out nicely, as it accented the ominous mood of their theme and made their victory a “chilling experience.” 1) Singing in the rain! 2) Beware! Those who dare enter. 3) Hangin' in there (Kimi Stokes)! 4) Smiling creatures?

This Is The Moment By Lisa Gilbert A rainy Homecoming? Glistening black umbrellas set the mood for Homecoming this year. Chauffeurs escorted the king and queen candidates to the platform, which added a new note to the traditional drive around the track. The dreary drizzle forced some last minute changes, but with dapper tuxedos, and clouds of lace and satin, the grace and beauty of the event did not change. Tense moments dragged on as the restless students awaited the decision of the judges. Hector Sanchez, the master of ceremonies, made the event even more suspenseful as he hesitated, waiting for Lisa Binning to bring him his glasses before opening and reading the judges’ decision. The verdict: the Class of 1983 exceeded the others with an extra dash of inspiration and imagination. The seniors were triumphant and jubilant and as they captured the Homecoming title for the second year in a row. 1) Toni Gerald escorting MC Hector Sanchez 2) Roni Grohs keeping the rain off Dawn Bliss and Ryan Kurtz 3) Sheila Bramlage leading Stephanie Aleck and Dennis Enscr 4) Shonna Bradford anxiously leading Laurie Haltcrman and Mark Bramlage 5) Mary Bramlage escorting the winning candidates Jennie Lcnhoff and Ron Corkin 6) Last year's Homecoming King and Queen Dawn Hot-tingcr and John Castro coming to greet the new winners 7) A group of anxious students 8) And the winner is. . 9) The Senior Class of 1983!
