Sometimes this is the most important part of all, for it is these graduates of one, two and three decades ago to whom renewing old acquaintanceship means so very much. While teen-agers pay honor to a new king and queen, "old timers" and some not-so-old recall their own reigning pair and the heroes of the Warrior gridiron battle their particular year. It is difficult for the loyal graduate to admit that anything could be better than "their" homecoming, but honesty demands that we recognize the improvements through the years. With more leadership and a larger student body providing greater incentive, each year the floats seem to be more original and the girls seem to be prettier. Whatever the results, however, homecomings remain the same in one respect--the spirit, energy and enthusiasm devoted to an alma mater which will become something increasingly more*- special through a lifetime.
