he Bruins celebrated their position as Leader of the Pac at Homecom- ing 1988. Undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and alumni gathered together to achieve record par- ticipation in all of the week ' s events. This was the Homecoming Com- mittee ' s goal for the year. As Public Rela- tions Coordinator Mia Lathrop said, This year was unique. We wanted to make Homecom- ing an event that would unify the campus, and we car- ried this idea to its completion. The week ' s activi- ties featured s even brand new contests, including Bruin Jeopardy. This feel- ing of newness was intensified by the participation of four new groups: The Asian Greek Coun- cil; the Chinese Stu- dents Association, who captured the prize for the Best Marching Group ; Thai Smakom, who received the Best Decorated Car ' award; and Delta Lambda Phi, whose float won the Cub- by award for Best New Entry. The festivities culminated in the annual parade down the streets of Westwood Village. The parade ' s Grand Marshall was Dodger Pitcher Tim Leary. Of the 23 floats, the medieval theme of Delta Gamma And Theta Xi predominated. They won the ' ' Gold Shield Homecoming Sweepstakes award as well as several others. There was not a flaw in the parade, declared a jubilant Chris Anderson , Homecoming execu- tive director. This seemed to hold true for the entire Homecoming cele- bration. -Carrie Conn Members of Delta Tau Delta and Alpha Chi Omega, top, compete in the Balloon Bust dur- ing Bruin Battles, truing to earn points for their team toward winning the Sweepstakes Award for the best ouerall par- ticipation in Homecom- i n g a c t i u i t i e s .
