Black Tie 8a Blue Jeans ROAST 'EM TOAST 'EM! shouts the sopho- mores as they present- ed their float.-Photo by Christie Richard- son hovving of fter many hours of hard work, students waited I anxiously to see their finished products on dis- play. Everyone rolled out of bed by ten o'clock on November 1, 1986 to see or be in the Homecom- ing parade. Several new traditions were set: the parade was on Saturday morning and the usual mile route was changed to a short segment of Alta Mesa. Sophomores and the French club shared one thing in common: they were both TOASTED,'. The school was plagued with cooties, spread by the senior class. The junior cheer- leaders were voted most spir- ited, while the seniors won best float and the French club took first place in the most creative for clubs. Oth- er entries ranged from hot air balloons to hot or mild tacos.-Christie Richard- son, Amy Krehlik and Me- lissa Valentine. Black Tie 8: Blue Jeans : Homecoming Parade

on-stop energ o m e c o m i n g w e e k - h e r e again, but some- thing was differ- ent. Controversy over the tradi- tional parade rought about new ideas for Homecoming Week. With alls decorated, students ame to school wearing red, hite, and blue on designat- ed days to show their spirit. Student Council planned ac- tivities such as penny pitches, and lollipop licks to help raise students, spirit after the parade. The week ended with the Homecoming Pep Rally as students piled in the auditorium for the Homecoming ceremony and slide show at the end. With mums pulling on sweaters and cowbells ringing, stu- dents flocked to the football game Friday night. As usual at the homecoming game, Rebels defeated the Eastern Hill,s Highlanders 31-0! Spirit Week was perhaps the start of a new tradition for Southwest High School and itis up to the students to con- tinue it. -Melissa Valen- tine R I P P I N G THROUGH AN- OTHER WINNING SEASON. the Varsity football team prepares to defeat Eastern Hills.-Photo by Mar- cel's Black Tie 8c Blue Jeans : Spirit WeekfHomecoming Game
