Mike McCauley Doug Winker Day -long celebration Exes join students in Homecoming festivities Homecoming came back, as we always knew it would, as we always know it will. And with it came the same love and happiness that had always been present at such events. A few sur- prises also came, though. Homecoming started out just like any other Homecoming, the breakfast for students, facul- ty, and exes, the interrupted classes — y’know, basic stuff — until the pep rally brought some very special guests to our attention. Mr. Dillard Isabel introduced Todd Haas, a 1987 graduate-to-be. Mr. Isabel also intro- duced Todd’s father, Mr. Daman Haas, a 1959 graduate. Todd’s grandmother. Mrs. Cleo Haas, a 1930 graduate, and Todd’s great- grandmother, Mrs. Frannie Bearden, a 1910- 11 graduate. These four generations of Colts were the special guests of the Student Council. Principal Jerry McCullough then introduced another special guest, Mr. James Crouch, Mr. McCullough’s predecessor as principal. Mr. Crouch delivered a fiery speech and punc- tuated it by taking off his shirt and tie to reveal a Colt T-shirt as he yelled those immortal words, “How sweet it Is to be in COLT COUNTRY!!” At this point, a very strange occurrence hap- pened in that gym. We' were transported through time and space (and sanity) to see the pep rally of our opponents, Haltom. The faculty presented this “Haltom pep ral- ly”, complete with a cheerleading squad, a drill team routine, a football team, and even the crowning of Homecoming Queen Coach Gerald Brown. The whole spectacle ended with a heart- rending version of Haltom’s alma mater, H-A- LLL-T-O-MMM N-E-R-D-SSSS.” CrrgCluung ACTIVITIES 21
