Celebration continued from page 10 A new homecoming event had its debut; Vandal Vegas Night. Or- ganizer of the event, Paul Freund said dur- ing its planning, “We'll take over the second floor of the SUB.” Deco- rations were put up all day Friday and by 8:00 p.m.,, the ball room, Ap- paloosa Room, and the rest of the second floor resembled a casino- idaho style with 30-40 tables of gambling ac- tivities, approximately 100 dealers, “Vandal Bucks,” and hours of music provided by Z- Fun radio station. Prizes were donated from local businesses. Proceeds of the casino night went to the stu- dent leadership group. For the second year in a row, an all campus exchange allowed dorm dwellers and Greeks to host one an other for dinner. Fol- lowing the exchange, the bonfire and pep ral- ly got Vandal support- ers raring for the up- coming game. Living group skits provided entertainment. Pi Beta Phi, Alpha Gamma Del- ta, and Kappa Kappa Gamma walked away with top honors for originality, creativity, and adherance to the Octoberfest theme. Be- cause of the repetive- ness of skits, the home- coming committee sug: gested that skits be turned in a week prior to the bonfire to avoid the embarassment. While the judges tal- lied skit points, presi- dent Richard Gibb an- nounced the royalty: second runnerup was Hays Hall's Kathy Ken- yon: first runner-up was Delta Gamma Tami Thompson: and Kelli Kast of Houston Hall was named queen. Coach Keith Gilbertson got the bonfire crowd to scream their lungs out by leading them in the Vandal fight song. He said, “The prospect of having a great crowd is a motivating factor. tow enthusiastic they are is going to be more Vital than having a lot of people in the seats.” The battle between the Vandals and the Wolf- pack was a major factor in deciding the Big Sky Conference champion- ship. The teams were both 2-1 and the past two years brought Ida- ho and Nevada-Reno squaring off with the winner taking the requ- lar season title in the conference. Gilbertson noted, “It's a big qame for both sthools. It's a good rivalry, and has become one of the key rivalry games in the conference.” Idaho came out on top with a 38-28 win, which kept spirits high for the Sat- urday night dance at Galloway's. Eastwood — eat your heart out! Home- coming dreams do come true, ALPHA Phi Omega members volun- teered to build a float for the parade. PR chairman Carl Dye and Denny Pierose exchange ideas for the service honor- ary's machine on wheels. (Duffy) CROWD pleasers like homemade Vandals got audiences going early in the morning at the Saturday pa- rade. Motels in Mos cow, Pullman, and Lewiston were packed with visitors.
