The crowd was silent with anticipation as she opened the envelope and announced the name. The candidates were: Jenell Arnold, Dawn Blaser, Bridget Fo- ley, Brenda Jordahl, Julie Lambert, Dawn Lange, Connie Lawson, Stina Sundstedt,Kim Wallick, and Sherry McKown. As the candidates were pre- sented to the audience one more time, members of Student Senate gave the candidates' parents long- stemmed roses. Then the queen was announced: Sherry McKownl The grandaughter and grandson of Mrs. Carla Morgan carried the crown and scepter to the 1985 Homecoming Queen. The ceremony was brought to a close after Junior Class President Scott Ryan gave out medallions to the candidates, who were then escorted from the gym.

It was Scott Ryan in the tricycle race, as he pedaled past Adam Herrig and Paul Doerrfeld. Sherry McKown and Jeff Ryan slurped their way to victory in the jello slurp. ln a show of brown, Phil Gillespie, Bobby Linz, Jesus Herrera, Rod Adams, Max Ray, and Jeff Peska won the boys' tug-o-war, Lynn Wen- dell, Karmen Kelly, Deni Donel- son, Kristal Koberg, Julie Lam- bert, and Molly Blank were the strength behind the winning girls' tug-o-war team. The competi- tion went from tough to intense as girls suited up for powder- puff football. The team coached by Troy Muilenberg, Shawn Serrano, and Dave Downing took the championship. Homecoming was more fes- tive this year with the return of the bonfire. B urlington burned in the Falcons flame as the student body cheered on. Judging of the floats proceed- ed the Thursday night game. The Queen's procession headed the rally, followed by floats from the Spanish Club, Cheerleaders, and Pom-pon Girls. The symbolic burning ofthe night before must have been an amen, with West defeating the Greyhounds 21 to 8. Saturday brought butterflies of excitement with the decorating of the cafeteria. For eight dollars, couples swayed to the beat of Satyre from seven-thirty until ten-thirty. Homecoming week was at an end, the 'iGIory Days of laugh- ter and tears symbolized the West High students on their own. Cwritten by A. Behning and B. Speer? I 14 Homecoming
