28 -l-I CD CD .E LL CD 'L CD .C -i-I O Two groups engaged by the CUB played to a full Mathis City Auditorium as part of the Homecoming festivities. Star- buck and Mother's Finest, both Atlanta- based bands, gave two concerts at 7:00 p.m. and at 10:00 p.m. IVlother's Finest entertained with lots of stage movement, clapping and audience involvement. There was an intermission, during which SGA president Dick McLeod announced the 1977 Homecoming Queen and her court. Starbuck proved an incredibly versa- tile group of musicians. They included a spoon dance in their act, and their instruments ranged from the xylophone to the marimba to the harmonica. Special effects were achieved with a flash and dry ice. The Homecoming crowd really got involved and cheered for more as the concert came to a close. Homecoming Entertainment ,img i I

KZ? Miss VSC Pageant '57 342 The traditional Miss Valdosta State College pageant reached a landmark birthday as it was presented winter quarter. Twenty-four of the annual contests preceded this year's pageant and the eighteen contestants were undoub- tedly as beautiful by today's standards as the crinolined girls who participated in the 1952 event. Sponsored by Pi Kappa Phi fraternity, the pageant is a franchise of the Miss Georgia Pageant and the winner represents the college at the June-slated state event. The winner also receives a scholarship and other gifts. The girls displayed talent and went through the paces of bathing suit and evening gown competition as Lisa Smith and Nancy Buntin, Miss Georgia 1972 and 1970, respectively, provided comment. The Thursday evening event was highlighted by some unusual talent such as gymnastic routines and mime. In the end, Kim Purser relinquished her crown to Eden Beck, whose talent was a Karate demonstration set to music.
