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

Five Dciys of Activities Mark Spirit Week During the week of October 24 through 28, students dis- played their spirit for the annual rivalry with St. Marys. Student senate set up guidelines for this week of spirit. Monday was the day stu- dents wore unusual hats. The hats ranged from a basic baseball cap to elaborate lampshades with red and white streamers. On Tuesday teachers came dressed in a variety of costumes. Mr. Byron Ruck impressed everyone with his dis- guise of an elderly man with a hunch back. Ophelia, alias Mrs. Pat johnson, was walking the halls reminding the seniors of the play Hamlet. Wednesday most students could be seen wearing dress clothes. The halls were much quieter Thursday. The girls were not allowed to talk to the boys. If they did, the girls had to hand over their foot- ball-shaped tags. These tags were worn where everyone could see them. The halls were alive with school colors on Friday.This day was set aside for the students to wear red and white. At the pep rally on Friday, the seniors were awarded the spirit stick for being the class with the most spirit. s---- I HJ' si E '-5 fm l2 Student Life if x te. 'M 'I Ada!
