You think, What? A late what? A late skate. A time for students to demon- strate their skating ex- pertise and unusual styles. Most students are very responsive, at- tending frequently and supporting their group or organization. Think about it: Fri- day night and the end of a long week. What better way to unwind and give your brain a break! Skating provides physical activity (no desks or books!) and an alternative place to become better ac- quainted with friends, as well as make new ones. Late skates can be used as a time of fellowship and ministry, as our spiritual life is strengthened by all we do for Christ ' s sake. The next time someone asks A late what? s say LATE SKATE! (C. Stanley) Danis Yocum rests her tired feet. Round we roll, where we stop only the floor knows.

( livt ' t Na ariMU ' C lli ' t ' cinuhinj; staff is proud of the student body. Spec- tator attendance has helped to build the continuing strength of the sports program. One of the women coaches, Brenda Pat- terson, says that fans get the team ' s adrenaline going. More importantly, They have control of the momentum in a game that is close and take part in its outcome. Ralph Hodge, Olivet ' s basketball coach, claims, The fans are very sup- portive and loyal to us, and it doesn ' t matter whether we ' re winning or losing. They give players an extra urge to give more when they feel like quitting. Coach Larry Wat- son, director of athletics, acknowl- edges that the fans are what people most see. Through his leadership, he hopes to portray a three-fold witness of the college. As the coaches and players demonstrate control and good conduct, their actions will be models for the fans to copy. Overall, the coaches can tell that the fans are behind their teams 100%. (D. Rantz) Intensity on viewers ' faces. Crowded stands evidence students ' enthusiasm. Prof. Armstrong and wife watcfiing a game. his Football is a girl ' s favorite pastime. Fans as Vieived by Athletes The goes crowd always wild when something exciting happens in an athletic event. Some of them get very involved in what is actually hap- pening, screaming and cheering the team on. Many even show up at games dressed in crazy ways to show their spirit and support. Of course, the other spec- tators in the stands notice all this . . . but what about the athletes themselves? Do they really notice the efforts the fans put forth? Does it mean anything to them or effect them in any way? The majority of athletes seem to think so. They agree that fans bring extra motivation and encouragement. No matter what the sport is, the fans ma or break the gamt states one cheerleadc It makes thej adrenaline flow aij that can make all t:| difference. Baseb player Phil Cable fe that fans can motivi an athlete to rise to t peak of his perfdj mance while Janr Williams, volleyba comments, It ' s mo fun to play in front 0(| crowd, especially crowd that is su portive and wants to there. Senior footb player Mitch Coir sums it all up — having fans at a fo ball game is like a si dae without the che on top. It ' s an adc dimension to the ga that makes the spv more enjoyable. ; Whitacker) I ii

Weekends were time for mixed activities and fun. For many Olivet students they were that long awaited trip home to visit family and friends. The weekends also brought football, basketball, and other sporting events. These gave the students a chance to be rowdy. Some girls found Fri- day and Saturday nights a time for going out with those brave enough to have asked. It also was a time to catch up on put-off sleep and dirty laundry that had crowded the basket and spilled out onto the floor for weeks. In the Red Room there were always students unwinding from the strenuous week and creating ways to have fun. This could have included a variety of things from round- robin ping-pong, to Rook, or fooseball com- petitions. Other enter- tainment was always available such as Kresge ' s late-night videos, or late skates. Trips to Chicago, or shopping to Lincoln or Orland Malls, or a stop at a favorite pizza place were all great ways of spending money and getting away from our temporary home. Whatever ONC students liked to do with their weekends, it always made getting back into the grind of Mondays difficult. Monday morning chapel time was some- times used for last minute cramming for that test effectively ignored over the weekend. It was often far too tempting to cut those early morning classes after arriving back to Olivet late Sun- day night, and there were many weaker souls who often fell victim to this temptation. Other lucky students were also tempted to compare their weekends full of home cooking to Saga Food Service. Usually the home cooking won. It was always good to come back, however. Mondays were used to catch up on friends ' and roommates ' weekend activities. Weekends and Mon- days were a memorable part of Olivet. (K.
