“That’s What Friends Are FoF HOMECOMING WEEKEND A week full of festivities and celebration spread over the campus the week before, a week that was full of rain and clouds, which dampened the spirits of some. Yet, when the sun tried to rise that Saturday morning, the students put on jeans and O.N.U. colored sweat¬ shirts for a traditional cel¬ ebration — Homecoming. The 1987-88 theme, “That’s what friends are for”, definitely came into play as friends built floats, made banners, voted for Homecoming attendants, competed in the pushmo- bile races, and cheered on the band and football team. The Homecoming day’s celebration began with a colorful parade that marched down Main Street past many eager onlookers. Then, in the 1:30 p.m. game, the Polar Bears stormed past Hei¬ delberg’s Student Princes with a 20-7 victory. The victory brought O.N.U. ' s streak of home wins to three. Also during the game, the 1987-88 Home¬ coming King, Jim George of Phi Kappa Theta, and the Homecoming Queen, Becky Krietemeyer of Al¬ pha Omicron Pi, were announced. On Sunday, October 25, the celebration came to a close. Students woke up late that day, pulling themselves out of bed and back to reality. The past week had been fun, espe¬ cially the day before. Yet, just as before the celebra- tion began, there was work to be done. By that afternoon, the libraries began to fill upas students tried to catch up on the work they had put aside for Homecoming. The beat of the O.N.U. marching band during the Homecoming Day parade vveis kept by bass drummer, Mark Bushong. 1986-87 Homecoming Queen Shelly Evans crowns the new Homecoming Queen, Becky Krei- temeyer, as Homecoming King, Jim George, looks on.
