Said class Secre- tary Treasurer Jane Christiansen, “We really worked hard but it was all worth it. I think every- one who participated in the events we planned had a good time ’ Kicking off the weekend’s activities was a bonfire on Thursday night designed to promote spirit and unity. Tempe High alumnus and local TV sportscaster Bill Mosley was the master of ceremonies and announced the names of those selected as class attendants. A breakfast dance in the Quad started the day on Friday morning and got people “psyched up” for the pep rally later in the morning. Despite the controversy that seems to surface each year, the highlight of the Homecoming Pep Rally was Senior Walk when seniors who had distinguished themselves academically or in activities were recognized in a traditional walk down an aisle created on the Gym floor. The basic requirements were to have a 2.5 or better grade point average, to have been a two year letterman or to be a club officer. Each senior girl was given a flower and escorted by an equally deserving senior boy. The football game that night had all the thrills any Tempe partisan could ask. Down 21-0 at halftime, the Buffs came back to win in a fourth quarter thriller, 28-21. During the game’s halftime, the traditional parade was held and Aileen Balizado and Gary Tutrone were named Homecoming Queen and King. Said Aileen, “I wasn’t expecting it. I was just happy being an attendant.” The semi-formal Homecoming dance was held on Saturday night in a lavishly decorated gym. Said Senior Kim Ordaz, “The decorations were very well done and the dance was a great success.” The crowd goes wild after the Buffaloes staged a fourth quarter comeback to overcome a 21-0 deficit and beat the Corona del Sol Aztecs 28-21 at the Homecoming game. The Varsity football Buffs show just how tough they really are as they play musical chairs at the Bonfire Rally. 18 - Homecoming
