eighties. Over five thousand friends gathered on Legion Field for the cinnual Georgia Pride Pic- nic. Chicken, corn-on-the- cob, and buttery biscuits were catered by our very own Food Services. For desserts, beautiful cakes prepared by students competing for the cake-bake-off were served. No one walked away from that picnic with an empty stomach! Several hundred fans pack- ed into Georgia Hall of the Tate Student Center to enjoy the tunes of Dreams So Real. Lava Love warmed the audi- ence up with some of their music. The only disappoint- ing part of the night was hav- ing to turn away so many students who would have en- joyed the concert. Friday brought some of the most exciting events. Walk- ing kudzu and pumpkin heads made the parade very interesting. The Pep Rally sparked enthusiasm by ad- ding the first annual step show and continuing the Lar- ry Munson sound a-like con- test. Several organizations performed their winning skits which all included fea- ture events form this decade. The main attraction could have been the presentation of all of the trophies for each event. The week ended on a great note when Kelly Curran of Kappa Alpha Theta was crowned Homecoming Queen. The bulldogs also pulled a victory over the Temple Owls. What a perfect Homecoming week! Kelly Curran is astounded as 80,000 football fans witness her being crowned Miss Homecoming. v 15
