Vikes Rout Panthers 38-6 For Homecoming Win Excitement and the hint of victory hung over a damp Viking Field Septem- ber 20 as the Vikes took the turf against the Gary Roosevelt Panthers for the Homecoming game. Bob Johnson’s two touchdowns, along with tallies by Dan Wellsand, Mark Allen, and Bob Malackowski sparked the Vikes to a 38-6 romp over the visiting Panthers. Halftime festivities began as the seven queen candidates and their es- corts drove down the track through a light but steady mist to the band’s strains of “You’re Sixteen.” Pep Club president Mindy Ohler crowned Sue Harrington queen and Danielle Baepler princess. Twelve hard-working Pep Club mem- bers armed with tin foil and crepe paper transformed the gym’s south balcony into a “Space Odyssey” for Saturday’s dance. One hundred and fifty couples, attired in semi-formal garb, danced to the music of “City Limits.” 12 — Homecoming 1. The band and bright lights stimulate the radiant smile of this year’s Homecoming queen, Sue Harrington. 2.

The loom The loom the machine from which thread is woven into cloth, a rather useless tool until someone cares enough to utilize it to place each thread in its position in the design perhaps each one identical to the next or each one wildly different. But the similarities and contrasts become almost indistinguishable as the year progresses. And few are seldom conscious of . . Weaving it into Valparaiso. 1. Spirit and crepe paper abound as VHS fires up for the Hobart football game. 2. Greaser Day brings bobby socks and long skirts back in style. Comparing Fifties fashions are Phyllis Glasser, Ann Cast, Belinda Robinson, and Laura Slingsby. 3.
