Sixth Grade FAKE FRIGHT. Ty Harrison can’t pretend that he’s terrified of vampire-man. He knows that it’s really Mike Perez. Others fail to realize the resemblance. UP FROM THE COFFIN arises pancaked Gary McGinness. A single spotlight shines on his face, bringing yelps, giggles, and even gulps from his “‘victims.’’ Randy Harris = Mario Jerez Eric Koenig Gary McDaniel Tom Michael Andrew Miller Drew Rankin — John Robinson Halloween, Sixth Grade—17 O

Howls, creaking boards, yells, cat calls, barking dogs, thunder, lightning and more brought chills to the hearts of lower school men on Halloween night. ‘Haunted House’, a Walt Disney record amplified over and over created goose pimples for the 8-12 year olds. Prior to the Halloween festivities, a mummified Lt. Bruce Smith roamed through Big Barracks. Hardened upper school men were given a start when Lt. Smith crept into room after room. To the rescue came Mrs. Malcolm Liv- ick and Mrs. Besty Trimble and the workers from the ‘‘cabaret’’ scene of the week before. Pressed into service once more were the military classrooms, but this time dark passageways, ‘‘eels”’, ‘‘eye balls’, “worms”, ‘‘spider webs’’, and creatures of the night filled one room. HITS AND MISSES. Ron Hepler, Dave Clifford, Jeff Campbell and Eddie French fail to heed Capt. Ernest James’ pleas for mercy for the victims of their pitches. BLOOD CURDLING in the dark, hunchback Bob Van Lear leers at a group of quaking Davis Hall men. Effective lighting adds to the monster man action and look. A vampire in a coffin, the mummy, Notre Dame’s hunchback, and simple ghouls populated another room. Nervous youngsters were escorted through the chambers of terrors. The background music (?) compounded the atmosphere of Halloween. Giggles were cut off when the mummy stumbled for- ward. One lad, claiming it was only the heat, simply crumbled to the floor. Later Joe Gurtoski admitted that he’d had moments of real doubt! Punch, doughnuts, apples, and can- dies were soothing balms as served by Mrs. Malcolm and Mrs. A. C. Livick. Fun and games included bobbing for apples and pitching wet sponges at barri- caded cadet officers and faculty mem- bers. ‘‘It was a blast’’ — everyone's sentiments.
