Onaway HomecomingHighlights 1971 From Presque Isle County Advance and Onaway Outlook Oct. 15, 2015

  

  
CAPTION:   Forty-four years ago, Onaway High School was celebrating homecoming week, just as it is this week.
Everyone, from the players, cheerleaders, band and merchants were gearing up for a time of rejoicing and
pride in the "Cardinal halls of learning."  The co-captainsof the 3-1 football team were Ken Baker and Jim
Holmes.  The band had almost 50 members, including a half dozen majorettes.  There were just as man 
cheerleaders.  Sponsoring a full-page ad in the Oct. 14, 1971 Onaway News was the Onaway Area Quarterback
Club and numerous sponsors.  The band formed a crown in the middle of the football field before junior Sandy
Havel was announced as the queen.  The band remained in its crown formation as the queen and her court left
the field.  The Cards won the game, 34-0 over Mancelona.
