Homecoming Fulfills Expectations HOMECOMING ROYALTY: Louise Montieth, QUEEN Chris Ehm, and Mary Meseke. October 31, 1969 was a night of dreams come true. It was Homecoming for St. Xavier's. Meeting their arch-rival, Luckey High the Rams scored a 22-20 victory over the Cardinals. At half-time ceremonies three candidates for Homecoming Queen were excorted in convertibles around the gridiron. Chris Dim won the coveted award and was crowned the Homecoming Queen of 1969. Chris Ehm was escorted by Greg Hargreaves. Her attendants, Louise Montieth and Mary Meseke were escorted by John Briestensky and Steve Erich- sen, respectively. A new tradition was set by the Pep Club when Linda Grant, the 1968 Homecoming Queen, returned to present a blue velvet cape to the Queen. As a part of the half time ceremonies the Pep Club formed an R on the field. 1 he Queen and her attendants reigned over a dance. Music was provided by the Summer Blues. 8
