Boys Get Even They cheated, replied Mr. Turk about the faculty student football game and the teachers ' defeat. The fact re- mains it was a 21-0 victory for the stu- dents. He continued, They bought the referee and ran illegal plays. He pro- ceeded to tell the teachers ' strategy: Kill, maim, and destroy all opponents. The referees were members of the facul- ty. Mr. Turk credited their defeat to a lack of speed. We ' re going to football camp for next year ' s game. 78-Student-Faculty Game Page sponsored by Linda Mayes

Unbeatable To no one ' s surprise the Actis girls ' basketball teams went undefeated this year in five games. Actis ' most challeng- ing game against Norris Jr. High resulted in a 29-11 Actis victory. Coach Barker commented that the team ' s best play, simply put, is to give the ball to Laura Aronson or Sherry Jennings and let them do their stuff. The girls were not able to join a league this year because the team was too strong. Barker explained, We ' re too good; that ' s why they won ' t let us into the league. There ' s not a junior high around, we couldn ' t beat. The seventh grade team has gone un- defeated diso. They won every game by at least ten points, except against St. Francis whom they beat by only two points in a close match. Girls ' Basketball-77
