First RHS parade marks Homecoming This year’s Homecoming jumped off to a spirited start by the greatest turn out for a pep fest in five years. The enthusiastic sophs displayed their school spirit by wearing the most red and white, jerseys, and cheering the loudest at the Homecoming pep fest. The first of what is hoped to be a traditional Homecoming Parade was led by the Sophomore Red Band. The Homecoming float, carrying Queen Sue and her escort Ted Grindal, followed the band. Behind them in open convertibles rode the Queen candidates and their escorts, as well as Superintendent Lytle. The parade also included many floats by various school organizations, among them: the Pep Club, German Club, and Anita Agerlie’s Y-Tcens Chapter. The Homecoming slogan was Spartan Destroyers, Mutilate the Warriors.” The football team did just that by defeating the Eisenhower Warriors 21 - 10. Pre-game and half-time highlights included a return of the floats but this time the Queen and her attendants rode in antique cars. ▼ Queen Sue leads the '71 Homecoming festivities during halftime. 26 Hotnccoming
