NOVEMBER, 1972 THE NEWS ARGUS PAGE THREE SU STYLES When you come to Winston-Salem State's 1972-73 homecoming game, will you be coming to see the Rams in action against the Shaw Bears or will you be here to adorn the Bowman Gray Stadium with exotic fashions? Although many of the people come to see the game, there will be others who come to see and be seen. As the crowd begins to gather in Ram territory there will be perhaps many ’73 Monte Carlos, Grand Prixs, Electra 225’s and Eldorados. These luxurious “rides” will not be the only source of fashion. For the people who cannot af ford them, there are other resorts. For instance, there will be wide-brim What it is, Brothers and Sisters of Ramland! As Homecoming is here, I urge all of you to support the football team whole heartedly! We can do this successfully, not only by just attending the game and activities, but by “displaying” and "expressing” our Ramspirit! Let the “Mighty Rams” and others know that we are Super Proud to be a part of them! Reigning as your “Miss Homecoming”, I sincerely wish all the Rams a great day on Homecoming and say to you . . . “Right on with the Rams to Victory!” Miss Homecoming 1972-73 Dee Dee Massey hats and caps of all sizes, shapes, and colors. There will be maxi-coats, mini coats, midi-coats, and Shaft short coats. Perhaps there will be double-breasted knit suits, or something a little more “way-out” or casual. There will be hot- pants, “knicks", short dresses, long dresses, and pantsuits with cuffed bot toms or the giant flairs — better known as “elephant legs.” The spectators will sport footwear of all heights, lengths, sizes, shapes and colors. The fraternities and sororities will do their best to have their pledgees suited in the best possible regalia of Greek paraphernalia. The band members will not think of their attire. They know already that the uniforms are their homecoming outfits. It will be a fashion show for some, but fashion is not the name of the game. The name of the game is football, and the players who have been through tough and rugged practice in order to count this game among their victories will not have the time to be fashion con scious. They will dress as usual for the occasion — in Jerseys. So whether you come to witness the Rams in action or to see how people will dress for the occasion, you should be satisfied at the close of the Rams’ homecoming festivities. Karen McCoy News Editor Wilson Explains Union Functions By Dorothy Flowers Indeed, a college campus is not quite a college campus without a student union. Although it is less than a year old, the Moyer M. Hauser Student Union is the most popular and most frequented build ing on campus. As the student handbook explains, the Union "signifies the essence of social interaction for students, faculty and staff.” However, most students don't realize just how complex the Union ac tually is. A staff of approximately 100 students, working with two financial aid programs, operates the Union. Each student is as signed to a specific area in an effort to increase working efficiency. In addition, job descriptions and duties can be found in each section. Lack of student workers sometimes forces certain areas to close down. However as Haywood Wilson, acting di rector of the Student Union, explains, “the Union itself has never closed down due to a lack of student help.” Wilson stresses the fact that Union hours must be flexible. When Union hours are in conflict with major sched uled activities, the Union is closed. Other wise, Union hours are regularly en forced. He said that the Union personnel and the Student Government Association are working closely together this year to put social programs together. “This pool ing of resources has been mutually beneficial to both parts,” he said. The canteen, bookstore and the post office are enclosed in the Union but are separate entities governed by separate regulations. The canteen is controlled by ARA Slater Company which also controls the dining hall. The canteen has its own operating hours which are posted on main entrances. The amount of general business regulates canteen hours, thus limiting week-end hours. Northwestern Bank, also located in the Union, rents space and is not connected with the Union at all. The director of the Student Union specifically regulates and staffs the in formation desk, the game room, the reading and music listening rooms and all areas which are not separately operated. He is also responsible for the general upkeep and operation of the total complex. Presently, Wilson, Arcen- ure Griffin, Mrs. Valeria Blue and Harold Roberts compose the administra tive staff of the Union. Wilson will serve as director until the position is filled. The Student Union, like the rest of the campus facilities, reflects the caliber of students. Student cooperation is asked for in maintaining good conduct and keeping the areas of the Union clean. The general student code is exercised in the Union and in addition, posted signs govern student behavior in certain areas.
