'     "Sweet Charlotte" Alstad'reigns as Central's
. 22nd Homecoming Queen.
Regarding her obligation as Queen, she says,
"The students have given me a great privilege
and there are certain things I must do for them."
She goes on to say, "I am a high reactor and get
involved with people very easily."
The Midland senior sponsored by Alpha Sigma
Tau and Sigma Phi Epsilon says concerning sororities, "There are many sides of sorority life
that non-sorority people never see. Many girls
couldn't take it, for there is a certain kind of
person who can handle the closeness ancLgiving
of herself and her time that it demands."
Queen Charlotte tells of a memorable postcard she received during campaigning. It was from
a 1926 Central graduate who had seen her picture
and congratulated and praised her, closing with,
"Always stay as sweet as you must be."
She says it's these little endearments that have
made the wonder of these past days even more
precious.
Weird Feeling
"It's the weirdest feeling to walk around campus and see you," says court member Judy Caudill.
"Having so many people behind you and pulling
for you is such a great feeling."
The Riverview junior, whose dream it is to be
the first woman astronaut, was sponsored by Alpha
Xi Delta and Phi Kappa Tau. She says she tries
to accept people for what they are. Judy is on an
elementary curriculum.
Miss Caudill was on homecoming court twice
in high school and was a member of the 1968 ROTC
Cadet Colonel Court.
Attendent Candy Halliday, 1968 Snow Queen
and varsity cheerleader, describes herself as,
"Lucky! I've had more wonderful people enter my
life. I only hope that someday I can repay some
of them."
The candidate of Alpha Chi Omega and Theta
Chi says, regarding sorority life, "I've never found
so many girls that could mean so much or care
so much."
Miss Halliday says the entire campaign was,
". . . neater than in dreams."
Sophomore music major," Kathy ..Landis, sponsored by Sigma Kap"pa and Sigma Tau Gamma
says about her campaign, "I wasn't nervous —
I was glad to have the opportunity to meet so
many students that otherwise I would have never
met." '
Miss Landis, a member of the 1968 Snow Queen
Court tells that as a freshman at Central, "I
watched the Homecoming festivities and thought
it was all so marvelous, never dreaming I'd be in
this position today."
"I feel happy, humbled, and honored," said
attendant Linda Wilkinson, Flint junior. "I couldn't
believe it. You just don't think things like this
can happen to you."
Tense But Exciting
Sponsored by the Kingsmen, the Vet's Club
and Chi Alpha Psi, MiSs Wilkinson says she'll
remember most of all the people she met during
the campaign and their reactions to her." It was
tense but exciting."
She plans on teaching emotionally disturbed
children and enjoys sports and dress designing.
Queen Charlotte and her four attendants will
preside over the 45th annual Homecoming activities, including the parade Oct. 26, the football
game and the dance that night.
