The long awaited evening finally came and it pitted the Dogs up against the Bluffton Tigers, with the ea- ger high spirited fans ready to cheer their team on. The first touchdown was scored by the Bulldogs. In the second quarter Bluffton scored a touchdown, but failed the two point conversion which left the score at 7-6 in favor of the Dogs. Then the New Haven Quarter- back Pat Baumgartner threw a pass to Senior Eric Stine which gave the dogs an eight point lead at halftime. During halftime while the Bulldogs were in the locker room getting ready for the second half, various other ac- tivities were taking place on the foot- ball field.

Changes In School Day Bring Mixed Emotions It was the first day of school. As Jane stumbled down the stairs to seventh period English, her legs were like jello from all the walking she had done. She walked into her classroom. Just as the bell rang, she sat down at her desk, put her head down, and class began. She heard the distant blur of the teacher talk- ing in the background, and then heard her name. The teacher mum- bled something about an adverbial phrase. Dazed and confused, Jane looked up, then fainted. Many students felt the same as Jane did. The addition of the sev- enth period brought mixed emo- tions from students and teachers alike. The general feeling seemed to be a negative one regarding the extra period. I don ' t think it was an improve- ment. The longer day made every- one less tolerant of others. There was too much homework, ex- pressed junior Kirk Jacquay. The teachers were required to cover more material in less time, which was really hard to do. It was difficult to make that ad- justment. I am beat by the end of the day, stated Mr. Klopfenstein. The extra period caused another problem. The D lunch period was eliminated, leaving only three lunch periods. There were more students in every lunch period, making lines longer, and less time to eat. I had to learn to eat faster but after I got used to it, it wasn ' t all that bad, commented senior Heather Dennis. Mr. Delagrange arranged for stu- dents with fourth or fifth period study halls to be released five minutes early to shorten the long lunch lines. Added to the ' 85- ' 86 curriculum was a required study hall, and an aerobics class. Many students es- caped the dreary doom of study hall by service working for teachers. Different from a gym class, aerobics was designed as an opportunity to keep in shape all year long. I took aerobics because it would be a time to have some fun, and get out of the regular routine, ex- plained sophomore Karmen Schnelker. An advantage to the addition of an extra period was the opportunity to take a not so academic class that students otherwise wouldn ' t have had enough room for. Even though we had to adjust to some new changes in the 1985-86 school year, we made the best of it. As usual, the year was a memorable one.

FRESHMEN JIMMY BROCK, Craig Henry, Mike McNeal, and Dave Douster take time out to catch up on the latest news. ONE EARLY PROBLEM involving the changes of last year ' s schedule was the long lunch lines. Students patiently wait for the line to move forward. DIFFERENT 18 PIECES STUDENT LIFE
