After dinner, Ditmer and Lytle play Pictionary against Vanden and Masser. Ditmer and Lytle won the game. It amazes me how horrible the pictures can be and people still know what they are, ' Ditmer said. ' We stopped the game to take a picture of the drawings because they were so bad: (Photo by Steven Deanngel) Applauding one of the higher bids. A.J.

Sold for the HIGHEST BID With cash or check in hand, more than 200 students filled Goodnow Hall ' s second-floor lobby into the stairwell, waiting for Taman and Jane and other couples to be auctioned Jan. 27. We dressed up because we wanted it to be fun, said Jane look-a- like Devin Schehrer, sophomore in sec- ondary education. We got people laughing so they would bid. The Goodnow Date Auction pro- moted dating safety and supported Manhattan Women ' s Crisis Center. Judy Davis, Crisis Center executive director, spoke before the auction about battery and assault. I spoke about the Center ' s ser- vices, she said. They ' re at a unique age where folks are making decisions about intimate relationships that will influence the zest of their lives. The Hall Governing Board auc- tioned off six couples including resi- dence hall staff; Classy Cat Sara Evans, freshman in family and consumer education; and Student Body Presi- dent Jason Heinrich., senior in indus- trial engineering. We weren ' t selling the indi- vidual, Schehrer said. We were sell- ing the entire date. Date packages included bowling in the K-State Student Union to dates of eating at Gold Fork Casual Food Spirits and seeing Picasso at the Lapin Agile by K-State Theatre. Local businesses donated money and gift certificates for each date. HGB had hoped to raise $200 for the Crisis Center but ended the night with $2,000, Schehrer said. I was so pleased with our resi- dents, Schehrer said. All these poor college students were shelling out all this cash. Schehrer said she thought indi- viduals would pay about $20, but dates sold for more than $100. Aaron Kennedy, sophomore in interior archi- tecture, sold for $200. I didn ' t see anything wrong with the buying part, Kennedy said. We were raising money, and it was for a good cause. Susan Lytle, sophomore in second- ary education, won a date with Paul Ditmer, junior in elementary educa- tion, including dinner, a movie and a game of Pictionary, for $100 . Paul ' s a friend of mine, she said. Everyone was going for so much I couldn ' t let him go for less than $100. After she won, Ditmer agreed to cook beef stroganoff Feb 5. It ' s just a dish I make, Ditmer said. I ' m pretty good at it. The other half of the double date included Jessi Messer, sophomore in family studies and human services, and her boyfriend, Joel Yourdon, sophomore in math and business, who bid $150 for Messer. He didn ' t bid until the auction- eer said ' Going once, going twice, ' Messer said. He wanted to see how high they would go. After dinner, the couples teamed against each other to play Pictionary. Ditmer said he hoped Lytle and Yourdon received their $250 worth. Someone paid $100 for me, he said. There ' s a little bit of pressure to have a good time. They paid $250 for a double date. That ' s a lot of money. by staci hauschild 24 student life
