No place like Home- coming y The rythmic sounds of Show Biz set the mood as 215 couples entered the gym for an evening of fun at the 24th annual Homecoming Dance. Couples filled the floor for both fast and slow dances such as Shout and Stuck on You. This year's band was much more appreciated as it broke the tradition of an aver- age Homecoming band, stat- ed Senior Nick Misch. Along with dancing and chatting with alumni, couples followed the yellow brick road through the magical land of Oz far removed from Friday's corridors and Monday's gym- nasium. After two months of drawing, cutting and pasting, the decorations were finished. We worked hard for approxi- mately eight hours before the dance, stated Mr. Michael Bortel, Highlander sponsor. Highlighting the evening at IO o'clock was the crowning of King Bill Borgo and Queen Tracey McBride. A loud si- lence was heard when the Mis- 4 tress and Master of Ceremo-2 nies, Cecilia Castaneda andf Dean Halicky, surprised thel King and Queen, as they sangl a duet for the traditional spotl light dance. g l Eleven o'clock brought thef end of the dance with couples? going off on their own to a va-l riety of restaurants. Octoberl 20 was a night to remember asl couples left with their heads inf the clouds, Somewhere Ov the Rainbow.
