Similarly, the Legend took first honors. Mr. Richard Johns, executive secretary of International Quill and Scroll, said of the 1980- 81 Prairie News edition, a fine publication of which your student body should be very proud. The paper received 928 points of a possible 1000 rating them an International First Place - News Media of Superior Achievements.

Cube Baffled Students A new craze left many students obsessed with the baffling mystery of unscram- bling a multicolored cube, so each side had one solid color. The Rubik's cube did not become popular with Kickapoo students until 1981, although it bacame available in Europe in 1978. Rubik's cubes oc- cupied students during classes, lunch, and sometimes before or after school. Some teachers were irritated at how it distracted the students during their class. This new-fangled puz- zle had 43 quintillion possible arrangements with only one solution. After the cube had been solved, it was common to see cubes that had designs created on them by their owners. Some students' pa- tience did not last long enough for them to figure out the object to this unique game. The Simple Solution to Rubik 's Cube, by James G. Nourse, was pur- chased by many students.

Greene Snatches Success Traveling, shoot- ing, smash, and serv- ing. All of those words had one thing in common. They were all familiar words to sophomore John Greene, whose pastime consisted of playing basketball and tennis. John, 6'0 with dark hair and blue eyes said, I en- joy basketball and tennis because I love sports. A lot of students spent time concen- trating on one sport, in order to be the best they could. But John managed to tackle two sports, a member of the varsity basket- ball and tennis teams. But he spent his sum- mer doing such things as placing first in the Ozark Junior Open tennis tournament held at SMSLI. Basketball gives me a chance to play with a team, but when l'm playing ten- nis, it's all up to me, said Greene. John has played tennis for six years and basketball for eight years, but he didn't enjoy one sport more than the other. Girls' Jay-Vee, Varsity Basketball, Bonnles 1 14
