Today from 7:30 to8:00 A.M., during luncri periods four, five, and six, and from 3:00 to 3:30 P.M., final voting in the Homecoming Queen Election will take place in front of the cafeteria to select this year's queen. The Homecoming '93 Queen will be crowned in a ceremony which will be held between the sophomore and Varsity football games tomorrow. In addition to the queen comj)etition, many other Homecoming festivities will be taking place this weekend. Tonight will kick off the weekend with the Homecoming Street Dance. The Street Dance, in place of previous years' Homecoming Carnivals, offers students time to socialize. The Su^eet Dance runs from 4:30 to 7:00 P.M. in the southeast park-

ing lot. Immediately following the Street Dance, Pep Council's annual Firelight Rally will begin. One of the events on Saturday's agenda is the traditional Homecoming Parade which begins at 10:00 A.M. The parade will proceed through the sU^eets of Park Ridge, complete with colorful floats, members of Maine South's organizations, the Homecoming Court nominees, and the Maine South Marching Band. While the parade makes its way through Park Ridge, the Freshman A and B football teams will already be playing the Glenbrook North Spartans. Those football games will begin at 9:30 A.M. The Sophomore game will follow the Freshman games. Around 1:30 P.M., between the Sophomore game and the Varsity game, this year's Homecoming Queen will be crowned. The

Varsity game will begin at 2:00 P.M. at Wilson Field. The Homecoming Dance, sponsored by the Senior Class, will wrap up this festive weekend. The dance will be held in the Spectator Gym from 7:30 to 10:30 P.M. Today is the final day to purchase a ticket, which costs fifteen dollars per couple. Nobody will be admitted to the dance after 8:30 P.M. During the past few weeks, various Homecoming-related activities have taken place to enhance the weekend. As in years past, several school organizations colorfully decorated the windows along the front hallway with paintings symbolizing the Homecoming theme. In addition to the parade. Pep Council sold carnations last week, giving students the chance to have flowers sent to friends during homeroom today.
