NETWORK. Mrs, Bonnie Allison explains the techniques involved in executing a back- ward flip. SHREWD REF. Scoring girls on their ability to hustle in basketball, Mrs. Bonnie Allison deducted points for every foul. SpaskethaII enlivens phys-ed game-play Side-straddle hops, squat thrusts, windmills, and toe touchers sig- naled ten-minute warm-ups in all girls physical education classes. Sit ups and V-seats for the stomach, head to knee and leg lifts for the legs, and swans for the hamstring muscles kept females in tip-top shape. Covering one to two units in the manual each six weeks, girls par- ticipated in softball, tumbling, bas- ketball, table tennis, jump rope, badminton, and tetherball. Mrs. Al- lison, girl's coach, reported, Stu- dents favorites are volleyball, 'Spas- ketball', and jumping on the tram- poline, so I try to spend more time on these. Spasketball, like basketball, is played by two teams on a basketball court. The object of the game is to get the ball to the opposite end of court by throwing or kicking it - running with the ball is not allowed. With two points for a basket and one point for failure to block a kick, spi- rited play resulted. Gir1's P.E. did not produce bas- ketball players or roller derby stars. It did, however, instill in the girls a better understanding of various sports.

Momentum snow-balled as Hazen met St. Charles on Hornet courts. Improving on his average, Ierry Smith C201 assured HHS a vic- tory scoring 24 points in game play. However, St. Charles forward, Dar- rell Coker f51j, won the game's shooting match with 25. Then tragedy struck! Losses to Bauxite, 71-64, and Palestine, 66-52, and more pressure in the game against Class A-Oak Grove de- moralized the Hornets. An Oak Grove follower declared, Twenty- three's QMike Desmuke'sj ripping of the nets almost annihi- lated us in this one. Completing the season's first half, HHS found itself the victim of Holly Grove, 77-545 Gillett, 81-645 and Oak Grove, 77-47.
