Traditional halftime festivities remained virtually unchanged this year as a court of five young women anxiously awaited the naming of the homecoming queen. Selected from a field of 49 contestants (including a strong candidate from the campus chapter of the American Advertising Federation — Ms. Piggy), the five members of the court were chosen during elections held on Mon- day and Tuesday of the celebration week. Representing Pi Kappa Alpha ' s Pledge Class on the court was Jo Ellen Drennon, a freshman from Lebanon. Jenny Cantrell, a freshman from Nashville, represented Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity. Junior Priscilla Corn, from Winchester, was the representa- tive of Alpha Kappa Psi, a business fraterni ty. Carrying the banner of Gamma Beta Phi was Mona Evan, a sophomore from Jack- Jeanni Stalcup, a senior from Gatlinburg, represented Kappa Sigma fraternity. Crowned by 1979 ' s queen, Melanie Griffin from Chattanooga, this year ' s queen was Mona Evans. It was the second straight year that Gamma Beta Phi ' s contestant had won the title. The Band of Blue provided the musical background as the members of the court were presented, playing appropriately Southern, downhome composition, includ- ing Tennessee Waltz and Tara ' s Theme from Gone With the Wind. Winners in the overall spirit award compe- tition were announced following the third quarter of gridiron action. In the fraternity category, Kappa Alpha took home the huge six-foot spirit award, which will be rotated in the coming years. Sigma Chi took second place, while Sigma Apha Epsilon claimed Kappa Delta sorority claimed top honors in the sorority division, followed by Alpha Delta Pi in second place and Chi Omega in third place. Winners in the open division were the men of H-Hall. In a tie for second place were Felder Hall (winners in the dorm decoration competition) and Smith Hall. Kappa Delta Pi, an education honorary, took third place. The seemingly smooth halftime produc- tion, which featured an ROTC honor guard in addition to the Band of Blue, belied the ' diligent and sometimes frenzied efforts of the homecoming committee. Members of the committee, under the direction of Jeff Ellis, a senior from Bethel Springs, began work on the celebration in May in order to carry off the entire week-long production. Homecoming 25
