Thursday night ' s bonfire blazes against approaching darkness. Below: queen nominees, Marcie Young, £r. , Natalie Mitchell, soph. ; Laurabeth Pierce, jr. ; Kathryn Springer, sr. Lesa Bess Angel turns cowgirl on Western Day. We welcomed Homecoming in traditional ways with special days, the bonfire, selling mums, and the sock hop after the game. One major difference was the absence of class float-building competition. The student council, however, built a float with a bi -centennial theme for the queen nominees to ride in the parade. Losing the cliffhanger ball game didn ' t damp- en spirits at the sock hop. The boys knew they had played well and done their best.
