Homecoming Festivities Students dance under a canopy of orange and black streamers. a Ld . m Homecoming 1969 was one of the major signs of change at P.H.S. The week began with students working during their study halls and after school to prepare miniature class floats, and banners re- presenting each member of the football teams. The deletion of large class floats, made at private homes in the past, from the Homecoming parade resulted in some disappointment; but, it seemed that work went more smoothly when kept at the school. Each class was responsible for a particular area of the building, transforming the gym, cafete- ria, and halls into an array of orange and black. The official celebration began with the presen- tation of the Royalty and the miniature floats at the pep rally. The parade downtown followed as the band led a procession of banners and Royalty to the ball park. The game was enhanced by the halftime activities— the presentation of the old grads, a salute to the Royalty, and the perfor- mance of the band. Saturday night the Home- coming dance moved to the beat of The New Breed, and couples enjoyed refreshments in the cafeteria. Amy Dent and Jimmy Harrison present the Senior German class ' float in the miniature parade.
