HOMECOMING Our American Heritage The traditional pre-game Home- coming parade was yet another success although rain dampened the morning. Students, faculty, alumni, and friends lined the route donning plastic coats and umbrel- las to watch the unique display of spirit. All of the floats were soggy but spirits were enthusiastic. Many floats featured moving characters. The groups worked hard to come up with ideas to express their Colo- nel pride; all did a great job convey- ing the theme, Our American Heri- tage. The winners of the float compe- tition were the Agriculture Club for originality, and Lambda Chi Alpha for beauty.

Lu Ann ready to graduate from high school. The year is 1953. She is full of life and aching to conquer the world. Senior Dwight Craft played Billy Bob Whortman. His in- nocence was refreshing. The second act took the audi- ence out of Lu Ann ' s home into 1963 and Red ' s Bar in Bradley ville. Lu Ann is a beauty technician with a young daughter. She was sepa- rated from her first husband Dale Laverty. Junior, Jeff Coatney gave his character, Red, a pure down- home country appeal. Senior Nick DeSantis ' character, Corky Ober- lander would soon become Lu Ann ' s second husband. DeSantis ' portrayal was harsh and rough; ap- propriately so and quite entertain- ing. Act three was placed back in the Hampton home in 1973. Lu Ann is widowed and left with her invalid mother, young daughter and crazed brother to care for. Senior Christie Tate gave Charmaine, Lu Ann ' s obnoxious teenage daughter a hysterically funny appeal. Uni- versity faculty Jeffrey Dills ' por- trayal of Skip Hampton, Lu Ann ' s older pathetic brother was sorrow- ful and yet humorous. Lu Ann is content with her rath- er average and dismal life. Howev- er, she has found an inner peace in her simple existence. Her human will has made her a hero in all of life ' s adverse fate. Lu Ann has be- come a hero of life, simply because she has survived in that dried-up mud hole. Photos by Chip Woodson Student Life 17
