The beauty and the beast: Valpo’s real life fairytale When you think of it, a beauty and a beast are so different. Yet, somehow, fate smacks them face to face, and it’s almost natural to find them together. For the first time in the history of VHS the beauty and the beast were found to- gether. Although a Homecoming beauty has been a tradition at Valpo for many years, this is the first year of recognition for a true beast, the “Ugly Man.” The Ugly Man Contest was created by Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) members and their sponsors. Coaches Skip Collins and Dale Ciciora. Pictures of “Ugly Man” candidates — six students and six faculty members — were dis- played before the student body. Student and faculty members voted by donating money to the fund of their candidate. After a week of voting, senior Craig McCarron was elected the ugliest beast on campus. Besides the “Ugly Man” contest, FCA sponsored other fund-raising activities in- cluding a basketball marathon, a chili supper, and a pancake breakfast. FCA is a national organization which is open to all students who are members or who plan to become members of an ath- letic team. Club meeti ngs were held every other week at the home of a member. While VHS students were voting an “Ugly Man”, they were also considering who the next Homecoming Queen should be. Homecoming is a major activity for Pep Club. To prepare the student body for the VHS Homecoming weekend, the Pep Club promoted Spirit Week, wich includ- ed a powder puff football game, a pep session, and a variety of themed dress-up days. The club’s new sponsor. Miss Elaine Bever. felt that all sports should be get- ting equal coverage. To enforce this idea she has stressed expansion on the cover- age of girls’ and minor sports. Food service staff members Mrs. Sharon Ham- mer, Mrs. Phyllis Hunt, and Mrs. Judy Hawes show school spirit participating in 50’s day during Homecoming Pep Week. To raise funds, FCA created the “Ugly Man” contest in which students voted senior Craig McCarron this year’s winner. 1(£N ' S , use rMi5 WJ 5 ficruKC ' CUN Lock SENIOR ttfF’ DEI ncCkkffcA A Picruk£ yj WTN fi Robert Kedforo Co OHLY CM Cmcit - ™ FUCM HCFt. .
