Unexpected enchantment Homecoming week festivi¬ ties came to an end with a bang. After a week of students dressing in a variety of cos¬ tumes, from army-navy day to beach day, the big day for the football game arrived. On Saturday afternoon, Oc¬ tober fifth, the exciting foot¬ ball game took place. The team moved their record up with another win as we defeat¬ ed Riverheads High School 27-7. During half-time, every¬ one was excited about riding their class floats and seeing who would become the new Homecoming King and Queen. Named Homecoming Queen was Debbie Boyd who was es¬ corted by King Dante Ca- priotti. The float competition was held during half-time. Many students spent long hard hours working on their floats. For the sophomore class, their hard work paid off. Their float won first place. Close be¬ hind was the senior class which took second place. The freshman class followed with third place. The National Art Honor Society float took hon¬ orable mention. All of the floats did a good job carrying through the “Glory Days” theme. The homecoming dance was held on Saturday night. It started at 8:00 and came to an end at 11:00. Colors used to decorate the cafeteria were yellow, light blue, pink, and white. The walls not only had streamers hanging on them, but also had an assortment of balloons and silver stars on them. Each table had a brandy sniffer with a candle flickering in it. As students entered the dance, they found themselves in a world of the unexpected, as they surrounded them¬ selves with the enchantment of music, soft lights, and each other. Many seniors will re¬ member the “Glory Days” of their last Homecoming. by Lori Banks Dante Capriotti and Katie McKechnie seem to feel the enchantment of the night as they dance. The sophomore class prepares to show their spirit as students get ready to ride their float in the parade of floats. 12 Homecoming
