Coming home... to a new stadium eR hae eo oe, a Ace Purple escorts Andrea Eyster, the 1984 fall homecoming queen, as she prepares to crown the new queen. At halftime, the crowd anxiously awaits the announcement of the new homecoming royalty. Michele Beller of Phi Mu and Dave Good of Phi Kappa Tau reign as the 1986 fall homecoming queen and king. This year’s fall homecoming took on a whole new look in University of Evansville’s Arad McCutchan football stadium. Impressed alumni returned to their alma mater to find the stadium completed after slow progress in construction. The Aces got their stadium, but pe could not pull of a win. There were plenty of activities throughout homecoming week for UE students. Comedian Yakov Smirnoff brought his standup routine and movie “Moscow on the Hudson” to a packed house in Great Hall and was a huge success. Lawn displays on the front circle were set up by various organizations and dorms on the Friday before homecoming. Their many hours of hard work were judged by faculty and administration members in both mechanical and non- mechanical categories. First place in t he mechanical division went to Alpha Omicron Pi and Tau Kappa Epsilon, and the non-mechanical trophy was won by Chi Omega and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. These awards were announced at the pep rally that night, at which Alpha Omicron Pi won the spirit award. Although UE was defeated by Valparaiso, halftime festivi- ties provided some winners. Phi Mu’s Michele Beller and Dave Good of Phi Kappa Tau were crowned homecoming king and queen. Fall homecoming 1986 was brought to a close with a well- attended dance at the Sheraton Inn, sponsored by the University of Evansville Alumni Association.
