U nplanned events created concern as well as excitement and prompted some re-evaluation of Homecoming activities, while the beauty of a queen and her court climaxed a week of tradition and surprises. -j O Living -L l Homecoming Homecoming left its mark on a number of the memories of Warren students. The caging of the Lawrence North Wildcats with the score of 48-7 gave way to mounting crowd excitement. Toilet paper flew, spectators roared, and cheerleaders danced each time a member of the Warrior team scored a touchdown. As the cool wind whipped their lovely outfits, the queen candidates were escort- ed to the center of the field. Rene Rich- mond, 1977 Homecoming Queen, walked up and crowned her successor, Candy Smith. During the week, students were busy trying to remember what to wear to school each day. Black and Gold day ended the week’s fashion parade. Parade Marshall. Former T.V. sportscaster Don Hein, now with the E.I. Brown Company, dis- cusses the pre-game strategy with participating in the post-parade pep session. Touchdown! Buried under a pile of Wildcats, a Warrior adds 6 points to Warren’s side of the scoreboard in a game which ended 48-7 in Warren’s favor. Vivid yellow mums added a bright touch to Friday’s activities. Sold by Quill and Scroll and prepared by the horti- culture classes, the mums were tradition- al touches. An unplanned event of the Friday evening activities was the burning of the senior float. Concerned fans turned away from the game on the field as fire trucks roared into the parking lot where the float blazed in the midst of parked cars. Several happenings of this unhappy nature will cause the float entries to come under careful evaluation in the coming year. Homecoming left its mark -Any way you look at it.
