HOMECOMING Dee Geets and Pikes top trike The 1983 Sycamore Trike Derby was dominated by outstanding speeds of indi- vidual riders. aThis yearis tthot wheels were both track records? exclaimed Denise Cauble, Orleans se- nior and coordinator of this years race. Tim Schoolman, Marion junior of the Hines team was the ments Hhot wheels with Zetats Anita Fehlinger taking the wom- ents division. The main obstacle in this years race was the rain. Racing had to be resche- duled from a rainy Friday to a drizzly Sunday. Weather on Sunday held off just enough for the track to be dried for the woments race. The merits race was then again postponed until the following Thursday, because speed of the men riders along with the wetness of the track made the surface dangerous. The sororities once again dominated the womenis race. Delta Gamma took first place followed by Chi Ome- ga, and Alpha Omicron Pi. The winning team of the men,s race was the Pikes, followed by Lambda Chi A1- pha, Alpha Tau Omega, and Phi Delta Theta. At last the final day ap- proached with rain out of sight. Carl Osborne, a retired stage manager of fifteen years for Tilson Music Hall led this years parade as the Grand Marshal. Perhaps the biggest of competitions dur- ing the weeks beforehand were the floats. With much planning Class A competi- tion was taken by Alpha Chi Omega, Zeta Tau Alpha and Theta Chi while Chi Omega and Alpha Tau Omega fin- ished second and Alpha Omicron Pi, Alpha Phi and Lambda Chi Alpha finished third. In the smaller Class B competition, first place was awarded to Phi Gamma Del- ta and BlumberTRhoads team. Exchanges are important to any team member as they can break a stride. ePhoto by Craig lohnson Sprinting the last few yards can make or break a winner as the Dee Gee's demonstrate in a Close one. e Photo by Craig Johnson Homecoming 15
