The games went to Eastern Hills 8-4, and to Trinity 8-5. They did beat Bell 6-1 only to lose the next game to Arl- ington Heights 6-0. However, things did change in the next game as the Buffs managed to defeat Trinity 2-0 due to a solo homerun by Shawn Maynor that turned out to be the decisive run. Their first district game against Sam Houston was disap- pointingg they were beat 6-O. Soon after the last out of the oppos- ing team, Coach John King discusses batting strategy with junior Kevin Reeves, who is on his way to the dugout. Sam Houston's pitcher had good control and just seemed to stifle our batters, Coach John King stated. Their first half record ended 3-3. Second half play proved to be a replay of first half play with the first district game being lost to Arlington, 11-1. The team couldn't seem to get rolling the rest of the season and finished with a 2-5 record. Coach King said, Overall they have performed well ex- cept for mental errors by players with their minds on other matters. l BASEBALL

This need gave way to an endless vanety of personahdes and faces that brought hfe into an otherwise empty structure. Each student expressed aspects of his own personality with the clothes he wore, from black concert t-shirts to Izod cotton knits, the verbal expressions he used, from undoubtedly so, to yeah, man, and the vehicle he drove, from battered Volkswagon to '82 Camaro. Without the students, the school building would serve no purpose whatsoever. In order to assure that Haltom would have more students in the future, a number of improvements were made to encourage enrollment. The sophomore class, with over 450, as compared to the junior and senior classes of approximately 380 each, affirmed that the improvement program was going to succeedl 3 Varsity football players Chris Donovan, Gary McCarley, and Steve Singleton, seniors, study Burleaon's strategy at the homecoming game. . f '7 ' PEOPLE
