Girls began their search for a date as guys began trying to get their courage up to ask that special girl. Visions of mums, football, the dance, the queen and escort, and the alumni pep rally swarmed the minds of Tascosa students. The homecoming pep rally and football game were held on a cool October 2. The dance was held from 8:30 to 11:30 p.m. on October 3. October 2 began like all other homecomings with tinkling bells. Some teachers resolved the tinkling bell problem by enforcing Bell taping. I think that if our dates spend that much money on the mums we should be able to get the full pleasure of letting the bells do their thingf' Senior Beverly Quigley said. As the day went on, spirit began to fill the halls as anticipation of the big pep rally began to surface. Finally, the 3:00 bell sounded, 12 Homecoming!Student Life signaling the beginning of the special 35 minute pep rally. Following the pep rally, students went home to pre- pare for the big game. The Rebel squad scored 34 points in the first half. The second half of the game brought a Rebel victory, with Tascosa 47-Lubbock High 28. The dance was the next night. Z-93's amachron played the music for the Homecoming crowd. At 11:30 p.m. the dance ended, official- ly ending Homecoming 1987. -Shannon Parr
