Beat the juniors! Beat trie juniors! Beat the juniors! These were lamiliar words as the senior players warmed up for the powderpuff game Approximately forty-five girls attended powderpuff practice every day for two weeks. They started out with basic calisthenics, then advanced to long runs, and piggy back rides up and down the hill behind the gym. After then muscles were ioose. they began to practice the plays. Usually, they split up into offense and defense, and then practiced against each other. Tney also had to learn the specialty teams, such as kick-oft, kick-off return, punt, and punt return. Senior Anna Hernandez commented. The piactices were hard work but worth it in the end when we won. After many practices, the seniors were ready for the game. The players and coaches went to Straw Hat for a pregame pizza dinner funded by a car wash held the Sunday prior to the game. There was much anticipation as the seniors warmed up on the field the night of the game According to Annette Herzberg, Everybody was a little nervous, but once we got on the field, we were determined to win. Alesha Dickson ' s interception sparked a drive, which was capped off by April Abreau ' s twenty three yard touchdown to highlight the first half. The point after was converted by Jill Davis ' one yard plunge After that, it was tough defense and hard hitting that kept the game going. Defense did an excellent job of keeping the juniors from scoring in the fourth quarter, said senior coach Mike Sylvester. As time ran out, ecstatic seniors hugged each other with the trium phant feeling of defeating the juniors with a score of 8 to 6.

That ' s a wrap! Strike the set! It was long ago. But someone should have seen it coming. On the show, To Tell the Truth, which was cancelled years ago. cartoonist Gary Trudeau was asked, How long do you plan to keep drawing this cartoon? Oh, about six years, Trudeau answered. Well, twelve years later, he finally called it quits, temporarily. On January 2, 1983, it was official. The award-winning car- toon Doonesbury was taken off the papers of America. But, as said before, it ' s only temporary. Trudeau wanted some rest and since his contract expired, he decided a 24- month rest was in order. The celebrated strip took its readers to a radio station, foot- ball huddles, and occasional visits to the White House. A cartoon known for its political viewpoints, the last strip was no exception. Opening with the usual White House front view, the comic highlights Edward Meese reporting to Presi- dent Reagan about the usual record unemployment, staggering deficits, and the renewal of the arms race. And what does Reagan say in reply? Great! Stay the course! Mo cartoons had as much impact on American issues as Doonesbury. Never giving away his own personal views on Republicans or Democrats, he simply attacked both sides; do- ing cartoons on Reagan, Carter, Ford, and Mixon. But his talents really shined around elections, taking his readers from campaign headquarters, to radio interviews and all the way to the party conventions. When something big would hit the news, it was covered quickly. To him, no news item was too small. From the recent DeLorean crisis, to the gas crunch, even to the hostage crisis in Iran, where one of his characters was captured by the Ayatollah ' s men. Its popularity was so high, Trudeau was assigned the job of transforming his characters into a TV special, which was a smash success. But until December of 1984, the avid comic fan will have to be satisfied with Bloom County instead.
