The RHS band proudly leads the 1968 Homecoming parade. Spirits were high and tensions at a peak on the Friday afternoon of Homecoming. Posters and banners overflowed the halls, and many were taken down and brought to the assembly as signs of spirit. The traditional Homecoming pep assembly was kicked off this year when the RHS band marched down all the corridors in their attempt to lead everyone to the gym. Adding to the spirit were the freshman-sophomore cheer- leaders who made their debut at the most exciting pep assembly of the year. Both the R Club and the Pep Club presented skits, and the junior class was awarded the spirit stick. The parade left school at 2:45 with the band. Royalettes, queen candidates, cheerleaders, and class officers. Pep Club was in charge of signs for the parade, and float judging was done by area residents. At the pep assembly Lmil Wang, Student Council president, cud- dles a baby lion in contemplation of that weekend's game. 23 The Pakia gang, dressed in costumes and carrying signs, en- courages victory at the pep assembly.
