Homecoming Attracts Happy Crowd On October 15 the 1965 Homecoming got off to a good start with a rip-roaring foot- ball fray against Marietta. Before the game Queen Kita Katsampes and her court were introduced to the crowd and escorted to the center of the field by Student Council boys. Rodger Drake, Council president, placed the royal coronet on the royal head. After the unfortunate 7-0 game, students and grads motored to the ZHS gym where DEC A had prepared a place for them. The theme for the dance was ‘’Cornucopia”. De- corations reflected the traditional autumn harvest scenes. LEFT: Jeff Ater takes a break from the whirl and swirl of the Homecoming Dance to visit the DECA refreshment stand where cider and doughnuts were on sale. Terry Wilkins serves the liquids while Dwight Robinson guards the solids. BELOW: Queen Rita flashes a smile as her car proceeds around the stadium track before the Home- coming game between ZHS and Marietta. Her car, loaned by the Newman family, was driven by Terry Newman. Hold Traditional Dance The fact that the Blue D s lost the fray be- tween ZHS and Marietta didn't prevent these students from enjoying the placid surroundings of the Home- coming dance. Alumni Judy Mawhorter and Russell Shipley dance dreamily to the music of the Mad Vikings. Ann Bailey and Jack Mead, Lemmert Kent and bally Smith seem to enjoy it also. The dance, sponsored by DECA, was certainly the highlight of the Homecoming events. 9

Football Rallies Keep Spirits High The first ( and only ) rally held in the new John D. Sulsberger stadium was on Sep- tember 16, 1965. It was a historic occasion. Other rallies were jammed into gym and auditorium as the weather soured. Rallies are good. They unite the team and the student body. They ignite school spirit. They develop loyalty. They inspire effort and achievement. LEFT: Student body of 1600 moves into new stadium. Pep Band is in top rows as cheerleaders re-educate old students and initiate sophomores into the fine art of co- ordinated vocalizing. ABOVE: Mr. Hagen warms up victory bell for first game of season. He was advisor to the class of '65 which promoted the project to establish the new bell ringing tradition at games. Swing it, man. BELOW: Varsity squad lines up as names are called during meet-the-team rally. Senior class officers guard victory bell. BELOW: Mr. Neumann's Pep Band stirs up war cries at rallies. Pep Boys also play Alma Mater to wind up each session. FAR LEFT: Let's hear it, gang! Reserve cheerleaders and Mrs. Burrier do stuff at H.C. rally. Mrs. B. scorns feeble response, orders thunder, threatens sluggards. Cheerlassies Jane Davis, Margaret Drier, Marilyn Sachs, and Lynn Pope approve. LEFT: Mrs. B. brought to the Home- coming Rally a hypothetical Marietta Home- coming Court, (back row): Frank Boykin, Ezra Goldstein, Pete Bailey, Bruce Baker, Jeff Blancett, Roger Drake, and Albert Zakany.
