Juniors Kim Kimble, Eleanor Wall, and Trent Massengalc form a link in the train of people doing the bunn hop.

This must have been the thought of not only Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With the Wind, but also the Newman High football team as they left the Episcopal field on the night of October 17. During an 8-6 Homecoming victory, the Knights slid by the Greenies to send both the fans and players into ecstasy. Though as senior Jeff Harlan says, We got out by the skin of out teeth, it still was the biggest Homecoming game we have ever had. I was so excited when I saw everyone lined up at the fence. In addition to the drama of the football game, numerous other events contributed to the excitement of Homecoming week. Alumni returned to campus, the Squires sold t-shirts to boost the already high level of enthusiasm, the cheerleaders painted signs and banners to be displayed all over, and the Homecoming Court was elected. This year's festivities, following the theme of Old South, began with a breakfast at senior Rebecca Rainer's house on Friday morning. Although students did have to endure a full day of classes, anticipation of the afternoon pep rally made the time pass quickly. As the students filled the gym, electricity ran high as the cheerleaders led chants and the coaches gave pep talks to fire everyone up. The students were further entertained by the seniors' version of Puttin' on the Hits which featured the Knights driving out the Greenies with sticks and brooms. Finally, the moment arrived that everyone had been waiting for- the presentation of the Homecoming Court. Excitement filled the air as Mrs. Lucy Smith announced Elizabeth Hebert as the new Homecoming Queen. When asked to sum up her feelings, all Elizabeth could respond was. This is one event I will never forget. The climax of the weekend was, of course, the dance on Saturday night. Guys and girls took extra time to make sure that their suits and dresses looked perfect. While some ate at nice restaurants and others ate at dinner parties, all students arrived at the Dining Hall between eight and nine o'clock, ready for a night of fun, dancing to the music of Impulse. Overall, Homecoming '86 provided everyone with a time to display school spirit, see old friends, and create new memories.
