8 Stu 'Skins Defeat Dogs 20-7 Friday night's activities began with the introduction of the Homecoming court. The introduction proceeded differ- ently from other years. The girls walked across the field with only the sound of cheering fans since there was no band playing the traditional march of Scipio- Aida-Pomp. Some felt the lack of the traditional march also made the ceremony lack some- thing. Others felt it was better without the march. All that was soon forgotten when the fighting Redskins ran onto the field ready for a Homecoming victory. To promote spirit and raise money for student senate, helium balloons were sold before half- time. When the band finished its tribute to Elvis, including such hits as Hound Dog, Don't Be Cruel, Blue Suede Shoes and the feature, Ulailhouse Rock, the fight song was played and the balloons were sent flying off into the sky. The'Skinsplayed an exciting game, the band did a splendid job, the dance was a success and Queen Susan Kreitzer and her court enjoyed a wonderful Homecoming long to be remem- bered, dent Life We ., Q. rv fg. is ay 1 ff? f ge in .2 , , , s ite: .yoj I I

Moonlight Dancing A romantic setting of Dan- cing in the Moonlight reigned over Saturday evening's dance. Also reigning over the Home- coming festivities was Queen Susan Kreitzer and court. For one evening out of the year an ordinary gymnasium was trans- formed into a fantasy land of moonlight dancing. The entrance set the scene for a walk among the flowers and trees of a city park. The gymnasium itself centered on moonlight beams of nylon netting flowing to all sides from the cen- ter of the ceiling and a revolving mirror ball represented the moon. As the ball revolved it reflected stars around the gymnasium. The floor centerpiece consisted of a park bridge surrounded by greenery and lampposts. Approximately 250 people attended the dance. They boogied to the music of the Primo Band. The band featured such songs as Sets the Scene Feelings and Bread's, l'd Like to Make it With You to Elvis' Don't Be Cruel and Blue Suede Shoes. Homecoming Queen Susan Kreitzer, escorted by jeff Haman, said, l was honored to be the queen of such a fine Home- comingg everyone got involved. The football team and band did a great job! Other members of the court consisted of senior attendants Connie Lowther, es- corted by Tony Huelskamp, and Sherry Naylor, escorted by Todd Quellhorst. Dave Bault escorted junior attendant Lisa Fahncke. Ty Schilling escorted sophomore attendant, Kim Naylor. After the dance, some went home to relax from a long evening of dining and dancing while others, not so tired, found private parties and post-Home- coming activities to fill the remainder of the evening. 10 Student Life
