I Ill Pr' met' m in '85 During the 1985 Homecoming week, entitled Primetime in '85, I told myself I would never get in- volved with student activities again. Granted, I had asked for the posi- tion of Homecoming chairman, but I never dreamed how much time and effort were needed for a successful week. Of all the members on my com- mittee, a freshman came up with the original idea for Primetime in'85. At first, I hated it. I complained to Buddin that now Homecoming would only be a chore for me, and I would not enjoy it. I pitied myself and pouted for about a week be- cause nobody liked my idea for a theme but me. My attitude became fine, Iet's get it over with. However, I soon realized this idea had great potential. We could wear camouflage for M'A S H day and have an air-band contest on MTV day. The ideas fell into place and it all started to look good. Marvel- ous, Anthony thought. As I prepared for the week, I feared that if Homecoming was an embarrassing flop, it would be all my fault. I was right. Homecoming was the responsibility of the chair- man, not the co-chairmen or stu- dent body officers.

Their name was Jug and Schoolboysf' We just decided to be in the contest because it was something to do. But because we didn't have permission from Buddin to throw candy out into the audience, we had to stay and clean up the wrappers and stuff, Madden said.
