TTT s 6 6. A worrled warrlor mayhem at the Halloween Ball in looks for his lost Amazon among the new DUC. Tricksters Had A Ball or Emorys witches and warlocks, there was one night of the year that had a special tblacld magic. The Halloween Ball was an annual tradttion concocted lust for them and could be the perfect potion in the middle of the long Pall semester. This years Halloween Ball, held at the new Dobbs University Center, was full of treats in the form of food and drink, outrageous and original costumes, and a loud and electric performance by the bands the Producers and Faces of Concern. The fifth annual Halloween Ball was held on November lst on the main floor and eating area of the new DUC. Plans that had been in the worlzs for over 6 months produced an evening that all enloyed. proving that Emory could throw a great party even under Georgias new drinking age law. Streamers, balloons, and tables of food awaited students as they entered the DUC for the Ball in costumes varying from punks and terrorists of the 80's to poodle sl-:irts and saddle-shoes of the 50's to flappers of the 2O's. A wide array of babies, bunnies, clowns, and students just dressed as themselves turned out to see their fellow students and the two bands, Faces of Concern and the Produc- ers. ' M-'-ever, Halloween Flower Chlldren With a large section of the floor taken up by the stage, which became an extension of the facade of the old AMUC, the first and second tiers of the eating area were cleared of the tables and chairs and students roamed all areas of the DUC waiting for the bands to begin. The opening band was Faces of Concern, a local Atlanta band that often headlined at the Club Rio downtown. They played for about an hour and a half by which time, students were dancing and beginning to crowd in front of the stage and the railings of the first tier in anticipation of the headlining band, The Producers. After a long wait, the costume contest was conducted by members of UCB. The winners, Marc Cail dressed as a female Playboy bunny and Andrea Shuman and Cathy Heslin as a bag of Ivf 8: Ms, were announced. The 'Producers' finally arrived to play among cheers and clapping from students who were becomtng impatient. Half-way through their first set, Dooley arrived Ctlanlzed by his appotnted student bodyguardsj to malze his traditional appearance and wel coming speech in what was his first official visit to the new Student Center. The Producers then finished their first set and left the stage only to be cheered bacl: on by students who werent ready to leave tust yet. Around l:l5 am., the Producers concluded their show with a rousing rendition of the Beatles tune l'lt's Been a Hard Day's Night. All in all, the first Halloween Ball held in the DUC was a great success as happy students found their way home with ears ringing with f'Producers tunes, old and new. One Emory Senior, Ned Blumenthal, confirmed the feeling of many students who attended the ball when he said, Nl had one of the best times at this years Halloween Ball that l've ever had at an Emory party, l saw people being more outgoing than they've ever been. lt's funny that the more people are hidden, the more they show of themselves.
