i Taking When you attended Main Street on September 15, it must have looked like a combination of Gone With the Wind and a bee movie. The event was a breeze, a lot of breeze in fact, which ., failed to blow away swarms of stinging insects. Fortunately, those who went were more likely to be stung by enthusi- asm than by yellowjackets. Over 100 student organizations set . up tables on the campus mall to pro- mote themselves. By activity hour, the area was so crowded that it was impossi- , ble to move against the rising tide of on- e lookers. If you went with the flow, you could dunk a student senator ta mysteri- u ously popular attractioni, record a hit i ' song with the Student Activities Council '7 and Tran Star, watch a martial arts dem- i onstration, or rally to the occasion with A Walk On The Wild Side Big Blue and the cheerleaders. Free prizes were a popular bonus. Few left without some small token - a pencil, decorative plastic bag, or box of health and beauty aids provided by ex- hibitors. The Hardees's Hot Air Balloon Team gave out 200 helium balloons alone! According to Scott B. Harrison, act- ing assistant director, Student Activities office, itMain Street is the only true, tradi- tional, annual, anticipated type of event on campus which is one of the major reasons for its ever-increasing populari- ty and attendance. Demand for the event has been so great that, for the first time, a second Main Street was hosted in Webb Center January 19.
