Class of ’78: The Dream To Be” Fag rar As anyone who attended would agree, the activities of Homecoming night were some of the best in student life for the year. It was a night filled with spirit, anxiety, and tension as the Fighting Presidents “swatted the Hornets” of Deep Creek by a score of 32-8. With only five minutes left before halftime, Deep Creek was leading 8-7, but with amazing speed, two touchdowns were scored and at halftime the score stood 20-8 in favor of the Presidents. Nine different clubs, classes, and organizations showed their spirit by constructing floats, the largest number in several years. First place honors were award- ed to the Senior Class float entitled “Class of ‘52: The ‘Dream That Was — Class of ’78: The Dream To Be.” This was done in orange and blue and included a beautifully constructed rainbow. Members of the Senior Class paraded on the float in ’50’s costumes and in graduation attire. Second place was awarded to the Junior Class; third place to the Freshman Class. Halftime came to a close as Sharon Martin was crown- ed ' Homecoming Queen 1977. Also chosen by the stu- dent body were Rita Bennett — Maid of Honor; Iris Thomas — Sophomore Representative; April Sweeney — Freshman Representative; Valerie Winborne — Eighth Grade Representative.
