There ' s no place like HOME As the leaves start to turn and we kiss summer good- bye. Homecoming week is near. Homecoming is a time for Students to show their school spirit and for alumni to support their alma mater. During the week leading up to the Homecoming game, many activities are planned for stu- dent involvement. Various student organizations com- peted by painting store windows, making banners, and street painting. The parade on Friday afternoon and come- dian Paula Poundstone ' s performance were two highlights of the planned events. The parade had no official marshal this year and was led down Sanford Drive by the Redcoat Marching Band. Students VOted during the week for a male and female to represent the University fof the com- ing year. The title these two students would receive was also an option on the Homecoming ballot. Stephani Carter, who is a junior from Stone Mountain, was crowned Home- coming Queen. This year marked only the second election of a male for a Homecoming title and j unior Scott Mulkey, from Gainesville, was elected King. The game had an early kickoff, so the tailgaters arrived sooner than usual. The sun and slight breeze provided perfect football weather. Even though the crowd was not at full capacity, the red and black clad fans cheered the Dawgs to victory. coming A nsl V Surface Football players were greeted by a enthusiastic crowd as they wer introduced into Sanford Stadium 16 « Homecoming
