 omecomintj On October 6, 1960, the annual Homecoming festivities started with an enthusiastic pep rally. During the pep rally our Homecoming Queen for 1960, Joan Unzicker, was announced, and she came forward to take her place on the throne. On the same evening everyone viewed a parade, which was unusually good. This year the floats were outstanding. After passing through main street the parade proceeded on its way to Memorial Field for the Snake Dance. Friday night, October 7, was Homecoming night. The evening began with the band’s performance. During the half-time, the Queen was presented with a dozen red roses while she and her court were driven around the field. Our team played Rantoul to a 6-6 tie. It was really a thrilling game. After the game the Homecoming Dance began. The theme,. “Autumn Leaves,” was carried out in beautiful decorations of autumn colors and silver leaves. As the court came on stage, the band played the song “Autumn Leaves”. The court was composed of Jeannie Kingston, Nancy Bolick, Queen Joan Unzicker, and Gloria Voorhees. Everyone present agreed it had been a lovely evening. 17
