OVER THE RAINBOW A teary-eyed and unbelieving Homecoming Queen, Shelby Jones, clings to the reassuring arm of the Homecoming King, Keith Allamong, just to make sure that this fantastic moment is really happening. Waiting in tense expectation for the important announcement of King and Queen, Kim Monger and Keith Allamong (left), Lynne Mercer and Jim Belcher (center), and Shelby Jones and Steve Poland (right) all portray images that WHS is proud to claim. 16

Again this year the Sadie Hawkins Dance was turn¬ about-time for WHS. The lament, What if he ' s already been asked? , was heard throughout the halls as girls tried to be the first to ask the guy of their choice. Ah, but fate prevailed and all turned out well as this year ' s dance experienced a larger turnout. More people meant more fun which also meant greater profits for the Beta Club. Vitties were plentiful, and laughs were abundant as everyone had a foot-stompin good time to the music of Rapid Fire. Though competition was great, Keith Allamong was dubbed King for his eye-catching red-and-white cos¬ tume and Nina Eaves was crowned Queen for her frilly mountain ensemble. Marry ' n Sam (alias Wayne Wolfe) takes advantage of a brief moment between ceremonies to smoke his pipe and snitch a little corn licker . Under the moon and stars , a myriad of costumes provides a colorful touch of Sadie Hawkins. Foreign exchange student, Cyril Delage, dressed up American Hillbilly Style , shares in the liveliness of the great hoe-down. 15

Beneath a rainbow of colored streamers, dancers pause for a breather. These fans are not only spirited, but pretty, too. Darling Daphne and adorable Jeff Huffer prepare to present the Queen her flowers and crown. In the midst of friends, fun, and colorful lollipops, some take a break to chat, to watch, or to collect a few memories of Homecoming ' 74. Homecoming ' s excitement and pagentry would not have been experienced without the tremendous effort of the WHS Pep Club. The night was a gala affair with the crowning of Queen Shelby Jones and King Keith Allamong. The grandeur of the night will be remem¬ bered by all for years to come. The court was one of the most beautiful parts of the night. Senior representatives were Shelby Jones, Keith Allamong, Kim Monger, Steve Poland, Lynne Mercer, and Jim Belcher. Missy McMullin, Bo Wiseman, Mary Ann Krog, and Kinny Shiflett were the honored juniors. Rounding out the Homecoming Court of 1974-1975 were sophomores Teresa Lovegrove, Nat Nicholas, Kathy Floyd, and Tim Roberts. Just dancing, just sitting, or a little of each seemed to be the right amount for a great time “over the rainbow. 17
