Summertime Afternoon Antics The summer without baseball The baseball strike, which lasted for 63 days, caused a frustrating darkness for die- hard Cleveland Indians fans. So what does one do for near- ly three months without Ameri- ca's number one past-time? Bay High's students had no problem finding other activi- ties to fill their days up. As many others, Junior Dave Karl decided to work. He com- mented, I mowed a couple of lawns all summer. It was great because I made twenty dollars a week without having any set hours or obligations. In order to save money for college senior Scott Zinser spent his summer working at Gale's Nurshery. To some the summer of '81 just was not the same. It was the first summer that lacked The World Series of Rock. The yearly tradition was can- celled the year before because of extreme chaos. Another hive of summer ac- tivity, for Bay's youth was the Huntington Playhouse. Every aspect of production was manned with high school stu- dents. Sophomore Scott Kale, who played in The King and I , commented, I was im- pressed by the professional as- pects of the theater. The show ran for four weeks, and was a complete success. The Bay Pool was a popular hang-out for students. Rob Sobczak, a life guard, said, I enjoyed my job because I got to cool off and socialize along with the other students. While many students stayed on the north coast, some stu- ON HOT SUMMER DAYS the piers at Huntington Beach developed into a popular place to perch.

Michele and Chip experienced an at- mosphere quite different from Bay's. Chip said, The area surrounding the cove had many different places to ex- plore. Hiking through the woods and small islands was fun. We also went clamming, fishing, and star gazing. With all of these different activities to offer, some stu- dents chose to just lay back and relax. Whether it was va- cationing, working, or playing, Bay High's students proved that baseball isn't everything.

The Dog Day Drills With summer rolling to an end, students spent hours practicing for fall activities. You only get out of Some- thing what you put in. If the old adage holds true, then the many Bay High students who attend organizational practices throughout the summer should be walking away with a lot of practical experience and beneficial knowledge. As summer rolled into its last flaking month of vacation- al pleasures, the members of the soccer team found them- selves assembled together at their practices. Using August tenth as the starting block, ev- ery weekday was set aside for the task of shaping the team into a finely honed tool. We started to play as a team; blending and complimenting one another ' stated Marc Hall. And as the crowds cheered throughout the season, so too did the cheerleaders. The first week of practice was for everyone to get to know each other ' specified senior Lisa Shoup. It wasn't mandatory, but the last two weeks we really buckled down. The cheerleaders went through these sessions learning the tricks of the trade , tricks es- sential to the spirit trade. Also present for the football games was the Bay High Marching Band. The actual practices began on the tenth of August but the rookies at- tended a special rookie camp the week before. Both morn- ings and evenings were pre- empted for the cause of the marching band. During the FROM THE SECOND WEEK IN AUGUST the marching band members prac- tice at the middle school toot- ball field from eight to twelve third week in August the bando's went through band camp . In order to strike a harmonious season of playing to the crowd, the mornings were given to marching prac- tice, the afternoons saw sec- tional playing of the musical selections, and the evenings yielded to blending the entire effect. The hours of sweating on playing field were rewarded when the fall seasons began. The return on the summer in- vestment was applause, points and pride. AT A MORNING PRACTICE, the Rockettes review a routine which was learned the pre- vious day. The line consisted of fwenty-one seniors and nine juniors. - 2 —D Van Nederveen AGILITY EXERCISES OCCUPY the first week of football practice.
