Dress-Up Week, mums and election of queen and king are all part of . omecoming When most people think of the school cafeteria, they think of dull and everyday things. But on the night of Saturday, Oct. 11, the cafeteria was transformed from a utilitarian area into a place of fun, frolic and dancing. Dee Jay, Dr. Tunes, aroused the crowd as he played popular hits and large-screen videos. When I heard the music was by Dr. Tunes, said Randy Jef- ferson, I thought, it was going to be corny. But he played music for everyone. He played soul, rock, country and slow music. He mixed up the music really well. Homecoming Week celebra- tions kicked off on Monday with College Day. Although a variety of college shirts were seen, the majority of the students who participated either were Longhorn or Aggie supporters. On Tuesday, the smell of Coppertone suntan lotion filled the hallways as Hawaiian Day came upon us. The only problem with the activities was that the first fail norther also ar- rived on that day. Hawaiian shirts with sweaters and jackets were the order of the day. After a break in the festivities for an inservice day on Wednesday, nerdy characters came to school on Thursday, just in time for Nerd Day. Nerd Day is probably the funest day of the year, said Carol Chapa, because it gives people the chance to laugh at themselves in a unique way. On Friday the halls came alive with blue and gold as students radiated school spirit. A pep rally was held and everybody was ready for the game with Corpus Christi Car- roll. Prior to the game, homecoming festivities were held and the court was honored. Nominees for queen were Diane Garza, Michelle Mitscherling, Shelley Pribyl, Sara Smith and Tammie Coleman. Homecoming king nominees were Clinton Nicholas, Gaylen Youngblood, Glenn Filla, Jon Grones and Michael Yates. Coleman and Yates were named queen and king. This was the best homecoming we have had, said Shelley Pribyl. We won the game and the dance in the cafeteria was fun. I liked the dance on Saturday instead of after the game, she said. Jeffrey Lack and his date dance to the popular music of Dee Jay Dr. Tunes. For the first time, the dance was held on Saturday night in the cafeteria in- stead of the gym. Christy Thurmond and Delton Marbach wait for their appointment time with the homecoming photographer. The dance was well attended and con- sidered the best yet Jennifer Voelkel and Patrick Gresti take time out from dancing to get refreshments, which were set up on the east patio. Decorations for the Autumn Breeze dance featured pum- pkins and other harvest accents. The dance was sponsored by the Student Council. Homecoming ■1 10 H
