Blue Sox Festival 1 9 8 2 K0low: The poor souls left behind. Homecoming Eve was the night of the Blue Sox Festival as it had been for many years. Although there v ere many last-minute cancellations and some minor technical problems, the shovj most certainly did go on. Memories of the past festivals are always full of skits, and memories of this year ' s will include them too. The theme of the festival was commercials, and the topics ranged from the scientific mode to the macho mode. The Theta Chi ' s represented the Blue Hoses spirit as they were awarded first place, and Bailey and Clinton dorms rallied close behind them, receiving second and third places, respectively. Tim Wilson graciously provided commercial interruptions between the commercials, and Elijah Ray entertained everyone with special music while the judges tabulated the votes. 22 Events

Et Cetera m:im6m: Homecoming Day — October 9, 1982 — began as many previous homecomings had begun: wet. As in 1981 the barbecue picnic was served in Templeton Gymnasium, followed by the Alumni Association Program. The football game, PC versus Catawba, began shortly after three o ' clock, under threatening skies. By the end of the second quarter, the score was tied, seven to seven. Half-time began with the Chapman High Band warming up the crowd for the entrance of the ten Homecoming Finalists and their escorts. The bond finished, and the finalists were announced. After each couple was announced, Mimi Trippe and Dr. Orr walked onto the field so that Mimi could pass the crown to the 1982 Homecoming Queen, and so that Dr. Orr could crown the winner. Jana Haley and Katherine Yonce were announced to be the 1982 Homecoming attendants. The announcer began again: And the 1982 Homecoming Queen is ... (a long silence followed as the people waited on the edge of their seats to hear a name) . . . Chris Henderson, escorted by Clarke Bourne. The crowd cheered as Chris, a Biology major from Laurens, moved toward Dr. Stidham ' s MG for the traditional ride around the field. Half-time concluded, but the excitement continued as the Blue Hose defeated the Indians by a score of twenty-three to twenty-one. After the game, many people went to fraternity court to fill out their day of fun, food, and festivities. 23 Events
