Time Off — Homecoming The Sophomore class puts in all their effort in the tug of war. Juniors Michele Pontack and Anne Briedenich struggle down the course for the three legged race. Freshman Freeman Franks, Sophomore Bob Bennett, Junior Tammy Zinzo and Senior Steve Emery try to inhale more hamburgers than their other opponents. Junior Janette Kulka attempts to catch an unbroken water balloon. Luckily, she succeeded. Senior Colleen Mullins has a disgusted look on her face as she catches an egg for the egg toss. Overall the Juniors took 1st. The sun was shining — ALMOST as bright as our spirits! It was the Fall games — annual homecoming spectacular. The juniors triumphed over all, much to the disappointment of the other classes. As freshman Dyanna Lathrop put it, I was pretty embarrassed that we lost! Winning the water balloon game started the Juniors off as they took the lead. Sophomores caught up fast by winning the hamburger eating contest. The seniors made it a three way tie as they won the egg toss. The tug of war and three legged race were swept by the Juniors. The sophomores finally took the wheel barrel race. The student games make homecoming something more than just a football game and a dance. They show student involvement and bring the kids closer together, remarked Mr. Burgess. 14 Games Day

The theme for this years homecoming parade was comic strips. Each class chose a charac- ter and constructed a float in- volving that character. The Seniors chose Garfield, that crazy cat in the comic strip by Jim Davis. The Junior class decided on Hagar the Horrible, the fierce viking in Dik Browne ' s comic strip. The Sophomores did Animal the wild drummer from The Muppets by Jim Henson. The Freshmen did jolly Winnie the Pooh from the cartoon by A. A. Milne. The Seniors stepped into third with Garfield and Odie. Gar- field was built in the Chickonowski ' s boat house off Strawberry Lane. The Seniors spent many moons in the con- struction of Garfield and Odie. The Freshmen and Winnie the Pooh took fourth place. This is the first Homecoming float for Comics Brighten the freshmen and they spent many nights building Pooh . The Roosevelt Little Reds and the Chippewa Braves joined in the festivities of Homecoming with their trucks. In their hands lies the future of P.H.H.S. The student councils of both schools constructed their floats to the exacting standards of their student bodies. Thanks to both schools. N DRUGS R00SEVk.Lt in STUDEN HI | i i r-
