Queen Jill Jones begins her reign. music of “The Main Event”. The Singers then sang “Love Takes Time”. Attention was then turned to the skit performed by the Drama Club. The skit, based on the movie “The Main Event”, began with the Zebra refusing to accept the challenge of a slugging bout with the McClellan Lion. He continued to refuse despite the urging of the Homecoming Queen. As the Queen sadly left the Zebra, she was kidnapped by the Lion. After learning about her capture, the Zebra finally agreed to fight, but only if the Lion would consent to tell him where the Queen was if the Zebra should win. All eyes were focused on the boxing ring. The first two rounds were obviously won by the Lion, but suddenly, in round three, the Zebra fearlessly knocked down the Lion. The referee then declared the Zebra the winner. Keeping his promise, the Lion agreed only to tell Bart Nuckolls, Andrea Cherry, and Selina Alexander, who presented Mr. Elgie Goss with the envelope announcing Jill Jones as the 1979-80 Homecoming Queen. “Still” was sung by Mark Williams as Jill Jones began her reign. The singing of the Alma Mater concluded the program, an assembly not to be forgotten in the years to come. Making the news.
