88 after the game, a yullerfest was held behind kirkpatrick gymnasium, a bon-fire burned nigh as old skis were sacrificed to the mythical snow god in hopes that snow would soon fall, it was a good time for the skiers to talk over the coming ski season. at nine o ' clock the students stepped through the doors of the ball- room into a german-style pub and a night in bavaria. apple cider, a variety of beers and lots of peanuts were in plentiful supply. on Saturday thirty-five ioggers participated in the c of i iog-a-thon to raise money for the athletic department, during the one-hour event in which over seve nty runners eventually participated, robert ripley took first place honors by running forty laps (10 miles!) in one hour, later, ten organizations, clubs andfrats and sororities set up a fair on the lawn of strahorn hall with exhibits pertaining to their group purposes and activities, capitol food service provided a picnic lunch nearby, it certainly looked like a fair . . . there were even balloons, one of which was a bit larger than the rest, a hot-air balloon ride was arranged by the program council on the field in front of hayman hall. later on in the afternoon individuals and teams vied for points for their dormitories in bike races, frisbee golf, three-legged races, wheelbar- row races, pyramid building, and to top it off, a mud-fight-tug-of-war that was anything but good, clean fun. in the evening three hay-wagon-loads of coyotes hooted and howled and sang raucous songs on their way to the barn dance. a large crows of fun-lovin ' foot-stompin ' folks got together for a jitterbug contest which was finally won by two couples, cash minor and dink hootman and tracy silver and teresa bishop. Sunday morning the festivities wound down to a close with a special strawberry breakfast and participation in church services, votes were later tallied and the winner was anderson hall (they got the trophy) but the happiest dorm was voorhees because they won the keg for most participation and spirit at the pep rally, again, hiccup.
