It Was Iust Beach Did you notice students walking around with banana splits on their faces and clothing that normally would be seen on the sunny beaches of Florida last February? More than likely you did because some of lUK's finest were enjoying the festivities sponsored by Student Union Board to promote the Spring Break Trip to Daytona Beach, March 7-16, 1986. Monday began the festivities with The Best Friends Came. Couples gathered in pairs and were asked ques- tions about each other. There were three couples, Kim Daggett and Rex Chaplin, Eric Dunham and Dwayne Dawyer, and last but not least, Carol Wisor and ludy Good. Carol and ludy tied with Kim and Rex, winning a cooler full of beachy stuff. If you were in the commons on Tuesday at 11:30, you had the chance of a lifetime to see the proper way to eat a banana split. The race began with lids on the boats and hands on their laps. Contestants were Eric Dunham, Tony Needler, Barb Kleinfelter, Lanette Fry, Carol Shaw, Randy Burris, Debbie Clason and Melissa Brown. The winner, who happened to be the smallest of all, was Melissa Brown. She won five free visits to Fastan. Dairy Queen do- nated the banana splits. Even though there is not to be drink- ing on campus, thanks to SoupIey's Li- quor, we were able to enjoy mocktails on Wednesday. Anyone sporting beach attire was awarded a free mocktail. Beach music was played during the lunch time. Thursday was registration for the Daytona trip. loe Dishon said 'lThere are still 40 spots available. Although the Dayton trip never ma- terialized, everyone in the Commons had fun participating in the beachy ac- tivities and dreaming of vacations to come.

Analyzing the ingredients of human beverages for his enjoyment, a Cylone warrior drinks another strange liquid through his finger. Operating under the name of party spectacular, the D.l.s helped IUK rock the grotto. Creatures Populate Grotto E.T. was there. So was Princess Leia and a very authentic looking Cylone. james Dean greeted everyone at the door, and Dracula was seen all night long taking pictures and looking very dapper, indeed. Of course, Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy showed up eventually and were seen dancing with the Wolfman and the most beautiful male bride imaginable. What was the occasion for such a strange gathering of sorts? The IUK Halloween Party, of course! The Stu- dent Union Board rented the IBN Saud Grotto on north 31 for the occasion and Party Spectacular created the sounds that everyone danced to that evening. October 26, 1985 was definitely the night of a full moon for students on the Kokomo campus. Awards for the best prizes were giv- en to Terry Clark, EET major, for his Cylone costume. Chris Mickelson and P.T. Chaffee won most original for their portrayal as a mailman and a let- ter, while Randy Burris and Lori Connerton were runners-up in that category for their caveman and cave woman costumes. Lewis Everling was the winner in the scariest category with his Dracula costume and Edward Doran won runner-up as the Wolfman. ludges for the evening were SUB co- presidents Mindy Baird and joe Dishong lack Tharp, Director of Student Devel- opment, and lanie Adcock, Director of Career Development and Placement. Area merchants who generously do- nated gifts for the winners included, Regis Hairstylists, l.C. Penney, Bob Ev- ans, and the Hacienda Restaurant. Halloween Party 29
