F lurry of excitement Homecoming night climaxes day of traditions Now, who would dress up to go to a football game? Well, besides the football players. And their mothers. And the refs. Who else? Right. Anyone celebrating Homecoming, as the Colts did on the night of October 17. The crowd still retained the energy left over from the day’s activities. They still were hyped-up from the pep rally, the breakfasts, and the visits from old friends. The excited crowd cheered the Colts onto a good start toward their victory over Haltom for the first half of the game, and then halftime came. But it wasn’t one of those ordinary halftimes. Instead, it was a Homecoming Halftime . The time to get down to business had come. ROTC marched onto the field, as did the sophomore princess, Jer-Leigh Thompson, and Christie Conley, the junior princess. The nominees for Homecoming King and Queen came out and proceeded two-by-two past the ROTC ranks to the welcoming ap- plause of the crowd. The nominees were introduced. King nominees Byron King, Brian Rumsey, Chip Joslin, Mike Meyer, Kyle Kemp, and Baylor Witcher awaited the final decision along with queen nominees Ashley Arnold, Carol Estrada, Mandy Schaller, Melissa Hubbard, Tammy Layton, Karen Massengill, and Anne Marie Ruppert. Finally, reigning king and queen Bob Deller and Brandee Bush crowned their successors to the throne.” The new Homecoming King, Chip Joslin, and the new Homecoming Queen, Carol Estrada, stepped forward to receive their crowns. Then the game came back, and proceeded on In much the same way it had started. The Colts put the finishing touches on an already well-done game and proceeded to vanquish their foes. In other words, the Colts beat Haltom. 24-0. 18 ACTIVITIES
