The band has performed in every state, excluding Alaska, and has given two command performances for Queen Elizabeth II of England. Along with a recently-achieved number-one rating for steel bands at the International Festival in Trinidad, the band brought its own style of calypso, classical, jazz, and pop-music. 78 — Tripoli Steel Band Lettermen In 1961, three unknown singers produced a hit record, ‘“That’s My Desire,” and are now known as The Lettermen. Featured performers for the Dads’ Weekend Pop Concert, these brothers charmed a 750-member audience at the Physical Education-Recreation Center. Danny Pole, Gary Poke, and Tony Brutals “hammed it up” for a full two hours followed by a 30-minute encore which clearly proved to be the highlight of an exciting weekend. Lettermen — 79 Fall Variety Show as ss Always a favorite attraction of Dads’ Weekend is the All-Campus Variety Show. This year’s presen- tation included six groups in trophy competition and 16 specialty acts. Top honors went to Sigma Phi Epsilon’s ‘Hooray for Hollywood” followed by Morris Residence Hall and Harrison Hall, respec- tively. All Harrison Hall cast members join in the grand finale to their skit, ‘The Carol Burnett Show”. Harrison Hall’s ‘Carol Burnett’’ gives an emo- tional plea to the audience. 80 — Fall Variety Show ee Annual performers in the All-Campus Variety Show include tne Blazerettes, V.U. dance and drill team, and the Roaring 20, V.U. touring ensemble.

Highlighting the fall semester activities Is Homecoming Weekend which features dances, a parade, and Trailblazer Basketball. It was a victori- ous weekend for the Blazers as they toppled Shawnee State by a score of 79 to 60. The selection is narrowed down by the student body as these three members of the court; Lizabeth Resetar, Evon Bradley, and Mary Ann Roedel, wait for that important announcement. 84 — Homecoming Preparations for Homecoming begin earlier in the month as these young hopefuls begin campaigning for the honored position of Homecoming Queen.

Directed by James Spurrier, the play starred Sandy Helmic, Charlie Fraker, Steve Dollahan and Grant Cham- bers. Depicting a young woman’s bid for stardom, the performance was both enlightening and entertaining. Sandy and Steve, (Fanny Brice and Eddie Ryan), choreograph one of their musical numbers in rehearsal. Over 75 costumes were needed to array the 32 characters, and the more exotic costumes were worn by the showgirls. These talented actresses portrayed the dancers that typified performances put on by the Ziegfield Follies. Sandy Helmic and cast members perform EY in one of the numbers that brings Fanny closer to stardom. Carole Dowden performs a jazz routine in one of the many musical numbers present- ed during the evening. 92 — Funny Girl “World’s Fastest Hypnotist’, Gil Eagles “World’s fastest hypnotist’, Gil Eagles, performed as a part of the University’s Lectures and Convocation Series. Eagles provided an exciting evening as he per- formed experiments with students in Green Audito- rium. One part of the program concerned the use of Extra Sensory Perception as a blindfolded Mr. Eagles answered specific questions written on paper by the audience. Gil Eagles — 93 The majority of the one hour-forty minute presentation was _ experi- ments in hypnotism involving nine students and Ms. Rose Gordon, As- sistant Director of Student Activities. 94 — Gil Eagles Students were hypnotized to portray roles ranging from an army sergeant to a beauty queen. Audience participation in sound effects controlled the students’ subconscious actions.

This semester’s winner was Sigma Phi Epsilon’s ‘Paint Your Wagon”, fol- lowed by Harrison Hall with “Fatman and Ribbon”, and Emison Hall’s “Salute to Annie”. Colorful costumes were the highlight of Sigma Nu’s “Toyland”. Harrison Hall’s “Fatman” is out to avenge all cigarette smokers. 100 — Mom’s Weekend Sigma Phi Epsilon’s “Paint Your Wagon” featured dirty old miners, ravished girls and a “‘deviant”’ preacher.

A tense moment develops as Beth Robinette and Neva Anderson await the judges’ final decision. 106 — Miss V.U. Her reaction is a dead giveaway as Beth Robinette is named Miss Vincennes University 1978. Miss Vincennes University 1978 displays her prizewinning form as she delivers her talent in the annual pageant. $ Littlest 500 This year Clark Hall made a clean sweep in both the Women’s Trike and Men’s Bike Race. Both teams outdistanced their respective fields to bring home victories during the 14th annual Littlest 500 Weekend. In the women’s Trike race, Clark and Morris Halls’ cyclists were ‘‘neck and neck’”’ throughout the entire race, but Clark Hall’s coed team pulled ahead to clinch the win. 108 — Littlest 500 Connie Brown, from the defending champions of Morris Hall, won the trophy for the fastest lap time of 1:47. That winning lap out the Morris Hall team out in front, but Clark Hall soon caught up with them. Littlest 500 — 109 The winning Clark Hall team con- sisted of seniors Bev Buysse, Karen Fagen, Joyce Ortiz, and Cyndie Win- eland, with freshman Janice McCracken. Sigma Phi Epsilon Little Sisters, also entered in the competi- tion, completed three laps before exiting the race. Winning its third consecutive Bicycle Race, Clark Hall’s men team led the majority of this year’s race by turning in a winning time of 52 minutes and 58 sec- onds. The race itself had six lead changes in a battle between Clark and Harrison Hall. Littlest 500 — 111 The battle between Clark and Har- rison Hall was not the only confron- tation of the day. There was no clear cut leader for third and fourth place as Sigma Phi Epsilon and Morris Hall stayed within 30 seconds of each other the entire race. Fraternity member Paul Axton turned in the fastest lap of the day — 1:04 — and gave Sigma Phi Epsilon the edge to secure third place. 112 — Littlest 500 113 Littlest 500 Terry Larry McGill, but the day clearly belonged to an exhausted but happy Clark Hall. Winning team members consisted of Jeff Branscome, Kevin Lambda Chi Alpha, social fraternity, took fifth place following Morris Hall with a time of Carr, Steve Harpster, Larry May, Dana Pierce, Larry Walker, Don Dhoore, Swain, and Jim Tackett 59:01; ce HI i | 43 ii i i iy ul nf 1 iy « Hi HHH HH 7 Po } : é 11 It was a beautiful day for the annual Spring Arts and Crafts Fes- tival.
