The Wild Wild West Revisited To a bystander witnessing the Homecoming parade, it probably looked like a band of actors from the cast of The Wild Wild West in an array of Western costumes. The students did take advantage of the theme to show off all their Western clothes. The parade began in the First Presbyterian Church parking lot and ended with a pep rally at the Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium. The activities that took place and the sights that were viewed in between these two locations were too numerous to name. Class floats with students following behind, convertibles carrying Homecoming queen candidates, and all sorts of decorated cars and vehicles were representative of the parade scene. The main event of the Homecoming parade was the pep rally that immediately followed, spiriting everyone up for the big game later that evening against the Rock Hill Bearcats. Fired up with spirit, the pep rally crowd assembles at the Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium after the parade. Enjoying themselves as they ride on the float, sophomores Laura Maw, Susan Toms and Isabel Alexander get into the spirit of Homecoming. The float of the class of '82 brings the Juniors together in the Homecoming parade. Homecoming 15
