“Marathon Women” Saturday, November 10, was an after- noon of cheers, tears, courage, and support — but to Resident Directors Cathy Jeakle, Diana Williams, Penny Webb, Jeanette Renfro, and Anne Gant, it was an afternoon when a new challenge was put into action. The first annual Queens College Jog-A- Thon was not only set up to raise money for the American Lung Association, but also to bring members of area schools and the com- munity together to reach a common goal, and what a turnout it was. The team members of the “Fabulous Five,” “Ebony and Ivory,” the Alpha Delta Pi and Chi Omega sororities, and the vol- leyball team took turns circling the track to complete the required number of laps while individual runners Ron Basini, Kathy Maske, Jeanette Manning, Cathy Stanulis, Cassandra Slaughter, and Leslie Banks ran their laps solo style. Trophies were awarded for individual and team efforts. Business office worker Jeanette Manning took the honors in the “Individual Who Raised the Most Money” category while Mary Beth Kay, Leslie Banks, and Helen Randall tied for the “In- dividual Who Ran the Most Laps” award. The “Ebony and Ivory” team of Melanie Lucear and Roger Melville were victorious for being the “Team that Raised the Most Money.” “Fabulous Five” team members Phyllis Bruce, Mary Johnson, Dawn Mol- nar, Stacy Peckham, and Laura Wark be- came the “Team That Ran The Most Laps.” It had been an afternoon of exhilaration and exhaustion; but whether they ran, walked, or crawled their way through the course, Jog-A-Thoners proved themselves to be front runners in fund-raising when their combined mileage added up to nearly $ 1,000 for the American Lung Association.
