Ruthe Thornton Reigns as 1964 Queen A sigh of relief and happiness was all that remained of this year’s 1964 Home- coming, which officially began on Thurs- day, October 8, 1964, with the homecoming parade and blazing bonfire. During the half-time ceremonies of the Horace Mann vs. Whiting game, in which the Oilers defeated the Horsemen by a score of 19-14, Louis Narantic, Student Council treasurer, crowned Ruthe Thorn- ton as 1964 Homecoming Queen. After be- ing given a traditional kiss and a bouquet of red roses, Queen Ruthe reigned over homecoming festivities for the continua- tion of the evening. Surrounding the newly crowned queen are her at- tendants and their escorts: John Grenchik, Gail Mayo, junior attendant; Jim Hora, Diane Tegosik, senior attendant; George Vrabel, Ruthe Thornton, queen; Louis Narantic, Mary Kompier, sophomore attendant; Dennis Smith, Barbara Bubala, Fresh- man attendant; Randy Braun. Queen nominees Ruthe Thornton, Diane Tegosik, and Ramiza Roman anxiously await the answer to the question, “Who will be crowned queen?” Ruthe Thornton, 1964 Whiting High School Home- coming Queen.
