Homecoming creates colors of rainbow More than 35 floats and bands pa- raded down Kearney's main street in honor of the 1982 Homecoming. Queen Penny Hiller and King Mitch Martin rode with their court in the pa- rade. Theta Xi won first place in the float competition with their entry “Step to Success.” Members of the CAC helped to get the parade organized. That afternoon many KSC students braved the cold weather to watch the victorious football game against Fort Hays. These two fun-loving girls worked together to hand out candy to the children who attended Kearney’s Homecoming Parade. Mike Johnson quietly watches the game from the sidelines. The riders on this float are subjected to the elements but they appear to be having a good time during the parade. Slater slaler
