 You're Never Too Old For Halloween Maasterious!'' We asked senior Tom Kyros, who has attended the Halloween dance for four straight years, to share with us his impressions of the event. MILESTONE: Why did you go? KYROS: I go every year! I hate thinking about Halloween the week before, because I always feel foolish dressing up- UNTIL a great costume idea hits me, and then I love it! MILESTONE: What was the best costume you saw there? KYROS: OURS! Oh, you mean besides ours?................. MILESTONE: What was your costume?(sec picture on previous page) KYROS: Qlen Oosterhoff and I went as upside-down people. MILESTONE: Did you win a prize? KYROS: Yes, but I lost it. I put it in my pocket, which of course was upside-down, and you can figure out the rest. Qlen and I won a ten dollar gift certificate to Superior Sport, so I guess someone out there is wear- ing ten dollars worth of our prize. MILESTONE: Will you miss not be- ing able to go next year? KYROS: I just don't know what Halloween will be like next year with- out the Maasquerade! Dicsscd in his Lcidcrhoscn. senior Gary Kunzi is ready for hiking in Ihc Alps. Even though freshman Kristen Kingnia doesn't have red hair, she definitely de- served the knickname carrot-top. Sophomore Deb Koesslcr took advantage of the fallen leaves on campus and became one herself! This aspiring physician is obviously a reject from our top-notch pre-medical program. Activities

There's No Trick - Maasquerade Was A Treat MAASQUERADE The Maasquerade is Hope's tradi- tional Halloween dance which pro- vides a good opportunity for those of us too old to trick-or-treat to get dressed up and just have fun. Maasquerade has been a well- attended, long-running SAC event which always proves to be a huge success. This year's Maasquerade was no exception, as nearly five hundred people, all in costume, arrived at the Maas Center on Oc- tober 22nd. The dance was unique this year in that SAC hired a D.J. who supplied both music and videos entertainment, riot only did the participants enjoy good music, but they also got to watch the latest videos on a big screen T.V. A costume judging occurcd during the evening, in which prizes, generously donated by lo- cal businesses, were awarded to those with the best costumes in different categories. The catego- ries ranged from the funniest to the scariest to the most colorful. The decorations and refreshments added to the fun and festiveness of the occasion.

HOMECOMING Homecoming is a special weekend during which Hope alumni can enjoy luncheons, athletic events, and the company of old friends. Hot only is Homecoming an im- portant event for alumni, but it's a busy and exciting weekend for students as well. Many special activities were planned for this weekend. In addition to cheering on the Flying Dutchmen football team and watching the crowning of the Homecom- ing King and Queen, students could at- tend an all-campus dance, participate in the traditional Homecoming parade, com- pete in the Run-Bike-Swim Triathalon and much, much more. Homecoming 1988 was celebrated the weekend of September 14th-16th. On Saturday afternoon. The Flying Dutchmen football team didn't disappoint the enthu- siastic crowd who gathered at the Holland Municipal Stadium to enjoy the warm, sun- ny weather and the Homecoming Festivi- ties. The Flying Dutchmen emerged victo- rious, crushing the Kalamazoo Hornets by a score of 17 to 7. During half-time, Joel Tanis and Kristen Yeomans were crowned Homecoming King and Queen. Homecoming 1988 will linger in the memories of all those who attended. They say Home is where the heart is. For many Hope College alumni and students, Hope occupies a very special place in their hearts and will always feel like home. As Pete Shearer looks on.
