Sponsored by social sorority Alpha Sigma Tau, 20 contestants, 10 male and 10 female, have been battling alt week in front of Bruno's to grab the top five spots on each side. Each contestant has been engaged in a "change war." Students cut the field from 10 to five on each side by placing spare change and donations into cups in front of Bruno's. The five with the most money move on to the pageant. AST sisters declined comment on which contestants were in the lead. Students have the chance to see the final round Thursday at 7 p.m. in the McGarvey. The contestants will face off in beachwear, eveningwear and casualwear. At the end of these events, each will be asked a question. The answer will be factored into the decision of the judges. Chris Fox and Christa Morris, from the Office of Student Activities, and Linda Lewis, former AST adviser, will be the judges. The pageant is used by AST to raise money for the Pine Mountain Settlement School in Kentucky. All proceeds, including the $1 donation admission, will go to the school. AST is close to surpassing last year's estimated total of $250 to $3OO. With one day left in the "change war," the donation admission the total is already more than $2OO.
