Mighty Colts surge past Sam, Vols to District The month of October started on its way with the mighty Colt football team stampeding past the Sam Houston Texans 28 to 7. This memorable game opened in the newly built UTA stadium. At the end of the month on Halloween the Colts surged by the Bowie Volunteers 7 to 0. The day of the game everyone prompted team spirited by dressing up in scary Halloween attire. The week before Halloween the traditional Colt Country Jamboree was performed. Included in the fun was a beauty pageant in which four boys displayed feminine charms. After the Jamboree, everyone head- ed down the hall to the senior- sponsored masquerade dance held in the cafeteria. A DJ furnished music and flashbulbs popped as a photographer snapped the wild and crazy dancers. Todd Gie«n Kcrty N'owtl! ACTIVITIES 29
