Gold ' n Oldies The week of October 20-23 JMU alumnae and friends came home to the gold. Luncheons and banquets were held for the classes of 1932, ' 37, ' 42, ' 47, ' 52, ' 57, ' 62, ' 67, ' 72, and ' 77. While alumnae were reaquainting themselves, queens were crowned, and students paraded their talents down Main Street, and on Wilson ' s stage. The seventh annual Jayemyou Revue kicked off the celebration Wednesday night. Comedian Tom Parks emceed the event with wit, and a few cynical remarks about D-Hall. Fourteen acts participated in the UPB sponsored event, all hoping to entertain the audience and win the three $100 prizes. But when the judges ballots had been tabulated, Russell Chamberlain won Most Original with his original, humorous songs, Ed and Ted Drabik won Popular Appeal with their acoustical sounds, and Jim Bracey won Most Talented with his performance of Chopins Fantasia Impromptu. The hallmark of Friday night ' s dance was the crowning of Ms. Madison. The ten finalists and students at the dance anxiously waited to learn to whom Sally Nay would relinquish her crown — the crown that would eventually become Holly Bachand ' s of the Dukettes. Along with her other prizes, Miss Bachand received a traditional dance with President Carrier. 28 Homecoming ' Quarterba quick pas? Tribe.

Loyal fans, still wound up over the basketball team ' s outstanding NCAA performance in which they nearly upset the 1 ranked University of North Carolina, wedged themselves into Godwin Hall on March 14 to welcome back their heroes. Pride glowed as the crowd showed their appreciation through banners and cheers for the nationally ranked team and Coach Lou Campanelli. The Dukes seemed genuinely pleased with the turnout of this second post-season rally. Starters offered their comments on the season, the tournament, and their thanks to teammates and fans. The victory speeches by Coach Campanelli and President Carrier also brought the crowd to their feet. Senior Linton Townes made his last appearance as a member of the JMU basketball team. For him the rally was a thank-you for four years of outstanding performances. After being drafted by the NBA in the 2nd Rounds, Townes is now a Portland, Ore. Trailblazer to the country — but will remain a JMU Duke to us. Go for the gold is not just a catchy slogan. For these Dukes it is a reality Heroes 27
