The Western theme turned circus on Friday with booths, video games, a dance floor and juke box in the foyer and balloons everywhere ended Unmatched Week had a long evening ahead. Football players were feeling the pressure from the fans and gave a whole hearted attempt to put on an exciting show. Southern breezes gently blew streamers on mums and lightly ruffled the hair ofthe proud Owners. This was a precious time shared only by the students. It was a time for Shelly Bartula to be crowned as Homecoming Queen and a time for the football team to score their biggest win of the season. Seconds tick- ed away as the clock wound down and Homecoming was over. Crowds filed out of the stands with romantic illu- sions of the night ahead. ,l-l...l-1-1 I was very happy when I was chosen for nominee, but there are no words to express the ex- citement and surprise I felt to be chosen for such a great honor, It was unique, the spirit unmatched and one for the record books. Homecoming 1982 had come to a close, captured only in memories, photographs and mums that would be placed on a closet shelf to fade to grey. The week had been unique, and the spirit un- matched and the people involved had made it one for the record books. -julie Richards Flags were sold at the VOCT booth for fifty cents during the day.
