NEW HOME COMING EVENTS FOCUS ON This year ' s homecoming theme, Take Off ' 89 - Touchdown ' 90, carried with it many new beginnings, such as crowning the queen at halftime, as well as old traditions, such as the annual bonfire and parade. A homecoming first was the Oct. 12 fashion show. In previous years, the show took place the Monday before homecoming, and the committee in charge assisted in choreographing and designing the event. This year, it was moved four days and produced by the student fashion show committee. The Saddle Tramps began building the tradi- tional bonfire on Sunday, Oct. 8, using donated wooden pallets, and fin- ished the 45-foot struc- ture five days later. Four thousand spirited spec- tators were quickly warmed Friday night when the Masked Rider threw the torch that light- ed the wooden tower. The Saturday morning parade, one of Tech ' s oldest homecoming traditions, followed the standard route beginning at Lubbock Memorial Civic Center, proceeding down Broadway and ending at the Texas Tech entrance. The parade ' s 68 entries were led by the grand marshal, the Masked Rider, cheerleaders, the Coin ' Band and the Saddle Tramps. The judges deter- mined that Theta Chi fra- ternity and Chi Omega sorority were the Greek winners and the overall best float entry. The groups claimed the first place title with a colorful space shuttle perched on top of Tech ' s Double T Sigma Phi Epsilon and Kappa Delta entered an outstanding float which featured all the Southwest Conference mascots.
