You Can Always Come Home S tudents, faculty, and alumni look forward ev- Bry year to the most eventful fall weekend on campus Homecoming. 1986 was no different than any other vear, for it provided entertain- ment, learning, and enjoy- ment for a large part of the UD population. During the preceding week, students voted for Homecom- ing King and Queen and their respective courts. This year, Bret Gardner and Amy Buck- ingham were chosen to repre- sent their peers for the Home- coming titles. The crowning took place during the half- time show. One of the great highlights for the Blue Hens fans was the arrival of the Alumni Marching Band, under the di- rection of Professor Emeritus J. Robert King. Each member was clad in unusual band clothes, including a voung maother who playved an instru- ment with her daughter in a backpack. The band definite- ly brought laughs to the crowds with their unique yet talented style. Like every Baturday, the regular UD Marching Band showed its talents on the field with the help of the cheer- leaders, the silk squad, and the Golden Girl majorettes. Homecoming, of course, means coming home, and that was what many of our alumni did this year. Many classes held tailgaiting parties out- side the stadium, while the class of 1961 celebrated its 25th reunion in Wilmington. Despite a 24-18 loss to the College of William and Mary, everyone appreciated being brought together to celebrate old friends and new and to en- joy the entertainment. F- THE 50 YARD LINE VIEW gives fans the chance to take in the whole game against William and Mary. Neil E. Weidman Never too young to party! wa-t::.g'i'-:ll'i'!ing:,-'.f 1
