ou Ann Welsh and Chris Jacobs entertain Crystal Welsh in the Union. Brother Sister Weekend MC Welcomes Siblings Welcome to our funny farm could be heard throughout the campus as MC students greeted their siblings during Brother Sis- ter Weekend 1986. The stick peo- ple, and MC barn complete with cow, pig and corn field graced the campus through posters and but- tons distributed to the guests. A few personal touches, such as old Three Stooges films during din- ner, and candy bracelets and necklaces sold at the Recreation Desk made the weekend extra special. The sweet tooth syn- drome was cured with chocolate covered Oreos and ice cream sur- prises, while entertainment in- cluded the hit movie, Karate Kid, a variety show, the Bro Sis game, the Backwards dance and an afternoon of crafts and games. Two youngsters take part in the lifesaver pass game as Nancy Bloom looks on. Double Take Dave Schultz is often seen clowning around campus, but at Bro Sis weekend he is, literally, transformed into a 6 ' 9 clown. He dons the make-up, clown garb, and his normal, friendly smile, much to the de- light of all the children on cam- pus. Because the kids are in- timidated by my height, I try to put them at ease by getting on my knees and juggling pen- guins. Future MC baseball players get a little early practice.
