Disappointed? Never! Over 2,000 Goat fans attended the Homecoming 1986 football game. They were not disappointed because the Goats defeated the Teague Lions with the score being 29-0. Joseph McNeil, a senior varsity football player, said, It was a great feeling to win the last Homecoming football game that I'll ever play at G.H.S. The bonfire was planned for Thursday night but was cancelled due to bad weather. LaDonna Henderson, said It was a big disappointment not having the bonfire but it was a great Homecoming anyway. The band boosters donated red balloons that band members released at the kick off. Stephen Shultz, a four year band member, said, Homecoming was a time for old friends and classmates to return home and see each other and to talk about old times and past memories. After the game, the Senior class room parents sponsored the dance at the Civic Center with Mobile Light and Sound as deejay. Leading the varsity football team, center Howie Tipton crashes through the sign. Homecoming

£i£et That Was Then . . . In Fifty Years Yes we are the students that make the memories, the laughter and the tears that echo down the halls of GHS. We attend school nine months each year for seven and a half hours a day. Some spend more time at school, some less. Over the years changes are made. GHS has seen many changes in the last fifty years. New state laws have made their changes felt during the past few years and advances in transportation and communication have caused many changes in student activities. Students of GHS had this to say about the way things were then and the way they will be in fifty years. Christa Shultz said that she would have hated to do all the math work without being able to use a calculator. Stacy Len-amond and Tonya Meredith agreed that the clothes were probably one of the biggest changes in students then and now. Carl Henderson said that they had to walk and carry their lunches and he is sure that they did not take as many tests as we do. Everyone thought that the school in fifty years would be much more advanced. They had ideas from robot teachers to jet cars. Some thought that GHS would be a 4A or 5A school by then. Melissa Wilson said In fifty years schools will probably be completely computerized. It's going to be 'spacey'! Student Life Division LS
