The senior class decorated the campus with a 6O3foot hot air balloon and with toilet paper. However, rain soaked the paper in the trees. A sign, written in shoe polish on the West Build- ing, read 'Lf-Xrt Building to confuse the freshmen.

vonth . Us smrr: or uma rms MA'I7C, BUT 'The To- twenty- ct. 1. He 'thquake rlier that Eered 6. 1 sulted in A DAY IN THE BY Scorr NEWLAND They did it again! The Cardinals clinched the National League Eastern Division title tonight with an 8-2 victory over the Montreal Expos. They have spent 134 days in first place, and it finally paid off After the Expos got away with a run in the first inning, the Cards came back in the third and tied the game. Then in the fourth, Dan Driessen, first base- man, drove in two runs with a double. The Cards and fans alike had fun in the seventh inning when they exploded with five more runs, including two on a single by Ozzie Smith, shortstop. Despite the obvious importance of tonight's game, I was surprised to see so many parents at Open House, There were about 800 in attendance, a bit short of the record 1 , 100. However, the administra- tion announced the score over the intercom for par- ents concemed about the game's outcome. I overheard parents talking about Dave Holley Ihistory teacherl. When he leamed that the Cards were ahead in the fourth inning, he beat his head against the wall and yelled I could be there, he screamed hysterically. I have season tickets, and I 'm here at Open House! U Earlier today, in Senor ILouJ Diaz's absence, our fifth hour Spanish IV class took advantage of the sub, Mr. lHerbI Dyck. We had a cultural experience, complete with Doritos and popsicles. Of course. things like popsicles and soda couldn't sit in a locker all day until the experience, so Brittney Puetz fjuniorj and I snuck out right before class and went home for the goodies. U they catch us, she said as we hurried back to school, just tell them you had to take me home to make sure I tumed the iron off this morning. She's so clever. .-Oh, speaking of hurrying, I ran like mad this morn- ing as I rushed to school at 7 a.m. for a weekly Bible study in the cafeteria. Angie Bollinger fjuniorj started the study at the beginning of the school year by calling fiiends. I 've wanted to be involved in a student Bible study for a long time. I thought there needed to be one, so I started it, she said. This week there were 12 of us there to look at things like Old Testament prophecies and Christian martyrs. Oh well, it's been a long day. I hope the Cardinals make it to the World Series. That would be so cool! I 'm sure that Mr. Holley would like it too, as long as Open House 1sn't that night. .Y 41,5 ' f .mf I I-J df ' '-J, 1 iii? my X at Hnstead of running on the partially fin- ished track, Demound Ming and Chad King, sophomores, jog to meet the re- quirements of their weight class.
