Forty groups of students slowly rounded the corner at Woodview Junior High School. With the parade ending at Warren Central, parade participants and students stayed for the pep session. Occasionally drivers of the taller floats had to be slowly guided under hanging stoplights and low branches on trees. The students’ major concern was to keep their floats all in one piece during the parade, or at least until it had passed the judges’ stand. Several students, uncertain that their giant Warrior, tee pee or goal posts would remain standing throughout the pa- rade, kept watchful eyes on their floats. The Class of ’77, striving for its third victory, was disappointed when the ju- niors took first place. Some minor problems did occur with the senior float, however. The senior float began to lose a few of its parts. First the goal posts came down and then the War- rior. By the time the seniors parked their float in the lot, plans were already in the making to rebuild it quickly. What ' s that you say? ' Warren Way,’ or No Way” was the theme of the junior’s win- ning class float. Vitality Homecoming Parade

Of course there were those ever- existing stubborn lockers. And finding cars completely boxed in by other cars in a parking lot without lines was another hurdle for some students. After the first few hectic weeks were over, students began to adjust. Their problems were solved, classes settled and they were ready to face the days ahead.
