HOMECOMING HIGHLIGHTS... Ryan Murray runs for yardage in the Devil’s victory over the Plea- sant Grove Vikings. Thunderclouds gave way to sunshine just in time for a successful Homecoming parade. Homecoming Royal- ty: Queen, LaVerne Storch and her atten- dants Julie Crandall and Lynette Czirr. Brian Wall By Friday morning, Homecoming 1984 was really underway. The class of ‘64 return- ed with “Madam,” and “THE HONKERS” to provide the students with an assembly that was unforgettable in more ways than one. The Distinguished Alumni, Don Bluth, Jeri Winger, and the family of the late Dr. Kent Creer were introduced, and then the assembly hall walls vibrated with the sound of over 800 screaming “little devils.” One thing was for sure: this year’s sophomores were the loudest ever. School was dismissed at 1:00 so that students could prepare for the parade. The morning had been rainy, but the thunderclouds gave way just in time to help make the parade a success. Homecoming Royalty, LaVerne Storch, (queen) and her attendants, Julie Crandall and Lynette Czirr reigned over the festivities. Lynnac Whiling 14 HOMECOMING

Brian Wall Brian Wall Confused Utah college represen- tatives stared in disbelief as one geek after another filed into the auditorium. Too-tight, too-short double-knit pants with the flies open were common as were horn-rimmed glasses, baggy nylons, clashing col- ors, and spastic shoes. Geek Day, New Wave Day, Purple and Green Day, and others marked the opening of homecoming 1984. GANG TACKLE! . . . And as the former “spectator” crawled out from under a pile of slimy brown bodies, the Mammoth Mudbowl got under- way. What began as a benign, semi- organized mud football game soon turned into a giant mud-slinging con- test. The rules were simple: Get the “Anybody want a hug?” ball across the goal line any way that suits you, and NO TACKLING! Tackling was against the rules and therefore was a common occurence. Spectators were in a particularly vulnerable position because few par- ticipants could resist the temptation to chuck just one slime ball toward the sidelines. Vice Principal Jacobsen was speechless with appreciation as one student treated him to a big after- game hug. One thing was for sure: There’s no better way to have “good clean fun!” (Lynnae Whiling) HOMECOMING 13

Bryan Tobler Eight-hundred red, white, and blue balloons flew into the air, the homecoming bell sounded, and the team thundered onto the field. The Pleasant Grove Vikings were about to be trodden down by the Devils. The final score was 17-8 in favor of the Devils. Elated team members and fans packed the after-game hang-out spot, Pizza Hut, to the rafters. Bright and early the next morning a few dedicated students sacrificed sleeping in to help cover the cafeteria walls with yellow and green plastic in an attempt to turn the lun- chroom into a Homecoming Wonderland. The dance began at 8:30, and the band, Lightyear, kept the evening moving. The Homecoming theme by Bryan Adams was a fitting one: “The Best Is Yet To Come.” And it was. . . . Swaying to the music of Lightyear, Eric Jacobsen and Lynette Czirr are in their own world. Bryan Tobler Norwegian humor by Kjersti Tollakson draws the attention of Breck Bartholomew while Paige Wright and Jay Helton pass in the background. HOMECOMING 15
