A time to remember With the birth of the school came the birth of new ideas for the festivities to come in the proceeding years at West Leyden. For homecom- ing there always has been mum arbor, princesses, a queen, parades, floats, bonfires, and of course, the game and dance. Through the silent fieldhouse moved a slow chain of mum arbor girls and their letterman escorts. As Coach Ventrelli named the prin- cesses, the jammed stands hushed as they awaited the name of this year ' s homecoming queen. Louise Sharpy emerged from the castle and was happily crowned queen by returning queen Denise Nuezil. The mellow sound of chimes rang throughout the crowd as mum arbor returned to their chairs, the assembly came to a close— still not the end of the homecoming festivi- ties, but only the beginning. The premier of Oh God brought many students to return to the school for viewing of the movie. Afterwards the enthused students flocked behind the school where the bonfire sparked off the spirit for the following day ' s game. A mass of people stood in awe as the towering flames soared into the darkened sky. The night had reached its peak and the crowd diminished, thus drew the end of the day but soon to begin another which held still more activities. Multicolored floats, cheer- leaders, mum arbor, and pom pon girls were gathered in perparation for the parade on Saturday, October 27. The Marching Knights played their well rehearsed music. Through the streets of Northlake they twisted until the last float had made its way back to school. Numbed by the cold air the girls returned from their places and waited for the day ' s game. Long hours of work paid off for the Seniors when the judges an- nounced the Senior float, Good Knight Hornets , had won first place. The stands became filled as the excited crowd waited for the battle between the Knights and the Hins- dale South Hornets. Ending the first night of the Homecoming week end, Lynn Stulik, Lyn Feldmann and )oni Flansburgh bring across to the crowd school spirit at the bonfire. An overview of the homecoming haiftime features the Marching Knights and Orchesis performing to a Christmas theme and Here Comes Santa Claus. as the Pom Pon and Cheerleaders watch. 12
