Tuesday brought J-Day, the student-oriented event on the quad. SGA hired the Great Novelty Package company to provide the 1993 physical entertainment. Great Novelty Package tours colleges only and it is the company's first year at JSU. Bungee runs, a velcro wall and sumo wrestling were the highlight of the event. The University radio station, WLJS FM, also did a live remote from the quad while simultaneously transmitting form the fourth floor of the TMB, where the finalists for Homecoming Queen were voted on. Sororities and fraternities battled for money in a tug-of-war tournament. There was also a caricature artist and palm reader to povide a full day for any student wishing to be involved. Connie Edge, Homecoming coordinator, wishes that more students would be involved inevents such as J-Day. "SGA has done some neat stuff. If (students) don't ever come out here, they'll never know how much fun it is," remarks Edge. Indeed, the minimal effort it takes to walk to the quad can provide a day or night to remember. Christy Vella, a JSU student, is currently recovering from the attractions on the quad. " I enjoyed all of the events, especially the sumo wrestling," says Vella, "but I was disappointed with the turnout. People just don't know what they missed by not coming out." The theme of this year's Homecoming was chosen by the Home- coming committee after word reached them that the original theme, "The Beat Goes On," was, well, being made fun of. M. Scott McBride, Director of Bands, came up with "The Rhythmn's Goma Get You" due to the focus on music for Homecoming '93. After the bonfire and Homecoming Queen announcements Thursday night, '69 Boom Box, a Birmingham altemative\rock band, will give a free performance at the Intramural Fields near the coliseum. Former Southerners and Ballerinas are returning to perform with the JSU band during half-time. 1993 Alumni Awards will also be awarded during half-time. The Alumna of the Year Award willbe granted to SaraLou Armstrong G Comell, a 1953 JSU graduate. Come11 has made continued contributions to the promo- tion of JSU through various contacts in many different orginizations. 3SU's Alumnus of the Year, Governer JamesE.

Lewis Gordon, Military Alumnus of the Year, graduated in 1975. He is a preferred member of Service to Mankind (Sertoma) and is a member of the Red Cross and other orginizations. The Young Alumnae are '92 graduates of JSU. While here, Dana Bright McGimis and Jana Bright McGimis, were stars of the Lady Gamecocks. Since graduating, the twins have coached high school basketball , and are currently on the JSU coaching staff. Patricia Wesson Wingo received the school's Outstanding Faculty Member Award. Wingo has been an esteemed professor of history at JSU since 1967. Homecoming '93 offers a variety of events for JSU students of today and yesterday. Students are encouraged to participate in everything provided for their entertainment.

For her outstanding play, Lynn Weaver has been chosen Player of the Week. The freshman from Nashville, Tenn. is a Middle Hitter for the Lady Gamecocks and has been an explosive offensive weapon for the JSU Volleyball squad this season. Weaver is a very intense and determined player who has brought a new style of play to the Gamecock's offense and defense. "She's much more aggressive than what welve.seen in the past," Coach Janice Slay said. "Our Middle-Hitters in the past had to be taught, but Lynn had experience at the position when she got here." The 5-1 1 freshman was a prep standout at FR Ryan High School. Not only was she named 1992 All-District and All-State, but she led her team to the Tennessee State Championship. Weaver has played extremely well for the Lady Gamecocks this season. She leads the squad in total blocks and her kill percentage is not the highest on the team at 12 percent, but coach Slay says the freshman's stats are picking up. 'That doesn't sound great, but Lynn has been steadily increasing her kill percentage over the past few. weeks," Slay explained. "She's made a significant impact with her play for us."
