Homecoming action The 1978 Homecoming week began with the coronation of King Greg Eng- strom and Queen Sue Seward on Mon- day night. It was the first time a king was chosen to reign over homecoming festivities. Each day had its special emphasis. Tuesday was Renville Day when every- one wore red and white. Wednesday was Non-match Day. Thursday was Stuffed Animal Day. Friday was Kiss Day when the cheerleaders were kissing the football players. At the pepfest Dale Negen was named “MR. IRRES1STA- BLE” and Julie Thompson was named “MISS HOT LIPS” as the result of the day’s activities. Doug Reek won the pie eating contest and Deb Feldman was the strongest in the girls’ arm wrestling contest. Friday night the team showed their spirit as they defeated the Hector Bull- dogs, 39-20. Homecoming closed with a dance in the old gym with music provided by Swift Current. WE’VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES! 6

Indians tough enough The Renville Indians’ football team had its best season in many years. With a 6 - 4 record, Renville finished second in the 212 conference. At the beginning of the season, Seniors Tom Sche- mel and Greg Engstrom were elected as captains by the team. The team went on to post-season action with a 212 West Lake Conference playoff game against the Bel- grade Redmen. All-Conference honors went to Seniors Craig He- brink and Dean Williams, and Juniors Dale Negen and Gerry Gigstad. Dean Williams was also named to the Class C Minnesota Sportscasters’ Association All- State High School Team. I.
