Following the band's performance, Mr. Crump crowned Jettaka McGregor homecoming queen, after which she ventured around the track on the enormous SCA float.

SEARCHING FOR A RAINBOW! In honor of the newly crowned Homecoming Queen, Jettaka McGregor, ‘The Other Band”’ performed at the annual Homecoming Dance. The theme was ‘Searching for a Rainbow. Unlike an immaginative ‘‘perfect dance,” the band arrived thirty minutes late, but extended the time at the end of the evening to account for the lost minutes. Not only was the band late, but after the dance, one participant said, ‘| can’t remember much about the band. All | remember is that it was not the same as any dance I’ve ever attended. Not many people were there and the ones that did come did not dance.” Another student commented, ‘‘at least they took a number of breaks. Those breaks really saved our ears.” we aod A female vocalist from ‘The Other Band ’ brought on some unusual vibrations. Being reunited with Lloyd O'Hara and Terry Emerson are former students Mindy Hirsch and Carole Dent. Crutches did not prevent Mike Jamerson from taking Betsy Stell to the dance. 24 Homecoming Dance
