Couples bumped and rocked to the mellow tones of One Yere, a top Cleveland band. The almighty weekend began as students and their dates watched the 45 8 defeat of john Marshall by our Wildcats. At halftime Carol Siefert, a senior at Regina, was announced Homecoming Queen. Her escort was Mike Gladstone, a proxy for Dan Conway. The Court included jane Gavin and Patti Gelin, also seniors from Regina, and Cathy Collins, a junior from Glen Oak.

Let's not waste any time, though, because there are so many good times ahead of us . . . Ah yes, the weekend. A time when we can shed the cumbersome shackles of academic pressure and enrich our experiences through more enjoyable means. Our youthful energy is reflected by the zealous interest which we take WeokencJs'l 1
