Left: Due to circumstances beyond anyone's control. no band showed up for the Homecoming Dance Luckily, most couples enjoyed themselves and each other's company enough to make the evening a pleasant one anyway. Truly, the art of conversation enjoyed a nice, albeit brief, renaissance. As the mellow tunes of WMMS floated, and 'commissioners' fumed, most couples had a chance to get framed.'' Senior John Pojman and his date. Jody Robinette, pose in front of the Justice of the Peace, thereby making the long journey from Medina worthwhile. The most comforting thought that the couples had was that there would be another dance, this one free; hence, they knew that they were getting two events for the price of one.

Those attending entered a fantasy world constructed in the style of an Old West town, complete with a graveyard and a corral. The evening would not have been complete without music; and the students and their dates were treated to nothing but the best from WMMS. The Silent Night was certainly a noticeable departure from the Homecoming dances of years past. On October 20. the school community was treated to another “happening”; one that had been long overdue. On this date, the “Just One Victory that had eluded our gridiron participants for eight years since the rivalry was renewed with St. Ed, became tan- gible. Our charged-up Wildcats stomped archrival St. Edward before a capacity crowd at Finnie Stadium. The football team set the tone for the year by totally outclassing the hapless Eagles. 17-6. The students, jubilant at their victory. then turned their minds toward ending the first quarter on a good note by preparing for the grueling quarter exams. After the arduous examination schedule, the juniors and seniors were extremely relieved to find five days of rest and relaxation in the form of Retreat week. This week provided upperclassmen with an opportunity to find God. form new relationships, and relax and enjoy the freedom of the retreats. The remainder of the week was spent by seniors visiting colleges, and juniors exploring possible careers. The students then emerged into the second quarter, ready to resume again the task of growing and learning. Odotet 17
