Celebrate! October 19 — Dear Diary, Today was the first day of homecom¬ ing week. Although on some Mondays it seemed like fourth down and long yard¬ age to go, special events of the day made it first and ten. Each day during homecoming was designated as a special “dress-up-as ... ” day. Today was western day, and we looked as if we had just stepped out of a John Wayne movie.

Also in the locker banks hung Go for the goal — Ron Kimbrough rushes for yardage to help lead the Cougars to a 3-0 victory against Northside. The game was important not only because it was homecoming, but because it was a district game. decorations — posters, streamers, and stickers — to jazz up the place. Each class decorated a showcase in the com¬ mons area according to the theme of homecoming — “Celebration.” October 21 — Dear Diary, When I walked into the locker banks today, I felt as if I were walking into a political convention. Hundreds more streamers and signs were hung in the locker banks yesterday afternoon. Those burgundy and gold decorations added color to the red brick walls and brown carpeting. Some of my friends stayed after school today to decorate some more, but I worked on the home¬ coming float for my club. Each club and class can build a mini-float for home¬ coming which, along with the locker banks and showcase, will be judged the latter part of this week. Oh yeah — it was 50’s day, and students and teach¬ ers dressed as they do on “Happy Days.” October 22 — Dear Diary, Today was dress punk rock, and oh, man, it was wild. I had never seen so many people wearing garbage bags in all my life! Hair was spray-painted green, purple, silver, pink, and blue — the glare nearly blinded me. Mini-skirts, overcoats, sun glasses, and fish-net hose substituted for the normal dress of blue jeans and sweaters. 26 Student Life
