ptown Bound Every college town has bars — right? Well, the town of Ada does provide one college bar for the students of ONCJ — The Regal Beagle. The Beagle has grown in popularity over the past four years and this year it even remodeled and expanded. The crowds of students on Wednesday nights and weekends were packing into the bar like sardines last year. Yet now, with the added room in the front of the building, everyone can usually find some breathing space. The Beagle also added a dance floor and constructed wood interior and exterior walls for a much nicer atmosphere. When there is nothing on campus to entertain students, they then become uptown bound”. Just a short walk from campus and the students enjoy the social atmosphere of loud music, crowds of people, a game of pool or darts and a drink. Although the crowds have thinned slightly since the drinking age law was changed to 21, the Beagle still draws the students of legal age in to have a good time. Some students have even become bartenders at the Beagle in their spare time to earn money for tuition. The Beagle may have added a touch of class by remodeling, but to the students it ' s still the same Regal Beagle — the only college bar in town! To relax after a long day, Melinda Dickson, Trudy White, Jayme Baer, Kai Miller, Lisa Seigman and Barb Andrews head up to the Beagle for a game of pool. Julie Horton, who can sometimes be seen working behind the bar, enjoys a night off with Cathy Fee. Upper left: Becky Lamp tries her hand at a game of darts.

Saturday morning, the homecoming parade traveled its usual route from the Ada high school up Main Street to the football field. Dr. Samuel Meyer was Grand Marshal for the parade which was made up of area bands, and floats from the Greek organizations and residence halls. The Sig Eps took first place for their float featuring Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner in the Greek division. In the residence hall division, the International Club took first place for their float promoting world peace. The brothers of Phi Mu Delta took home the Grand Marshal’s trophy and the Judges Award went to the sisters of Alpha Xi Delta. During the halftime festivities at the football game, last year’s king, Jim George, and queen, Becky Krietemeyer, crowned Brad Rodgers of Sigma Pi and Michelle Anderson of Alpha Omicron Pi as King and Queen for 1988. The Polar Bear football team could not seem to find the power to overcome the Mt. Union Purple Raiders but the festivities continued in high spirits with a dance and fireworks that evening. Another year of homecoming festivities came to an end but it left the campus once again with a lot of school spirit and many memories. Chris Stearns and Jim Rcinheimer help the Sig Eps win the pushmobile races. 13 Michael Washington listens closely to Bobby Gold ' s next command. WILDEST DREAMS
