X 4 Mums are really a status symbol: the bigger and better your mum fs the more people wilt re- Id ., ga you. Cathy Sullivan JIS li rl Homecoming Is good In a sense, but bad because of all ure money people have to spend an something they'Il I .. on y wear once. Janelle Emery LET'S G0 THROUGH T H A T AGAIN , . . Mrs. Farr and Paul Evans re- v i e w 4 fi n all instructions for presenting the Homecoming Queen. Iphoto b y M e I a n i e Thronej 've got to get a date!'l This phrase was heard echoing up and down the halls as Homecoming drew nearer. Many people didn't have dates and began to wonder why we have Homecoming at all. Mike Herring felt that, Homecoming has lost it's meaning, and instead of being a time to support our football team, it has become time to compare how much guys spend on mums. Oth- ers decided that Homecom- ing wasn't that bad. After all, said Michelle Campos, I'm not really sure why we have it, but it's neat to see the exes cheer and come out and all. The date itself is no big deal. Mike Love agreed and said you get all dressed up and go out to a nice restaurant and use all the etiquette you know - real great fun.', Whatever the opinion, Homecoming was an event to remember, Q e Pl W VV Veil f rrr'r'r'r wrw VWFMNT ,ta . fe..

Wy.- sounds are all that can be heard. They are the minia- A. ture cowbells I on the mums, which girls who are fortunate enough to have one, wear on Homecoming. The mums are bigger and better and more expensive for the guys who must buy them. Mike Herring said, I spent eighty to ninety dol- lars. It would have been easier for me to grow one in my backyard. To hold the opinion that girls wear mums only to com- pete with one another. Marc Allen explained, It's only a big competi- tion for them to see who has the prettiest mum. Girls tend to argue that the reason they wear mums is because it's sim- ply a tradition which no one ever bothered to change. HOMECOMING 1
