Seniors Look Towards Super Bowl It was an action packed night ranging from a tough array of players to the always stunning cheerleaders, Despertaires, baton twirlers, and flag twirlers. Each group worked very hard after school and even be- fore school to prepare for their perfor- mance. On the night of November 18th at 7:30 p.m. the show began. The Seniors came out with twenty, highly motivated and slightly frozen players. The Juniors joined them on the field at an equal status. The Seniors won the toss and elected to receive the ball first. Shortly after the kick-off the Seniors drove down the field and scored. Despite the futile efforts of the Juniors the Seniors' awesome defense held. Later in the contest, the Seniors scored again and that made the final score 14-0. Throughout the game the seniors repeatedly had big yardage gains in razzle dazzle plays. The juniors were unable to get their offense rolling. Leading the way for the Seniors on offense was quar- terback Cindy Parminter, running back Ester Braschler, and center Teri Shafer. For the defense the score entirely shows for itself. Those eleven players were highly praised for their efforts. On the other hand leading the juniors was offensive quarterback Lor- raine Dias, running backs Chris Wellendorf, and Tammy Stanton. For the defense, it had its problems. They were unsuccessful in con- powder puff ,L Q, Mar eww: fi A , qw. , w 'q 'gf' rang.-Q W 'f - ' , ffzf..Z.mv , rv ewfihbkf' -rf , , Y , f WH .ffyfrii 'vm , .

Even though they gave up points they were congratulated for their attempts. As the halftime highlights were held we watched the beautiful Desperataires, baton twirlers, and flag twirlers. Each group, in its self, was worth seeing. On the side lines we had the male cheerleaders, who were very good. The cheerleaders had a contest be- tween themselves to determine superiority in the art of raising the crowd to thrilling, chilling peaks. The annual powderpuff Football game was again organized by the Business Club. The money that was raised was put toward our Junior-senior Prom. 1. Here, displaying one of the Senior's many gadget plays, running back Esther Braschler and Quarter- back Clndy Parminter execute the play with great success. This play, and others like it, are the kind of plays which lead the Seniors to victory. 2. The Desperataires wait patiently for their cue and the right count before they start their march on to the field. They perform to Super Freak in their 1962 Desertaire outfits.

1+ W .- I Kitara Yama Mawette Kuruf' This may have very little meaning to you, but for those who attended or performed in the comedy, Teahouse of the August Moon, present- ed on November 18 and 19 by the B.H.S. Drama Department, it might be recognized as one of the most popular lines in the play. Captain Fisby of the U.S. Army is sent to Tobiki, a small village on the island of Okina- wa, shortly after World War Il. His assign- ment is to try to civilize a group of Oriental natives whose plans for recovery often con- tradicts those of the Army. With the help of his interpreter, Sakini, he succeeds in mak- ing Tobiki the most prosperous village on the island in a few short months. The Army wants to know howl There were a number of newcomers in the play, many of whom had very few lines, if any. Sitting in the audience, you could practically hear the knees knocking of those back stage. When I first started in acting, states Tony Johnson, I felt that my stom- ach and brains met in center stage. But once you are before the audience, all fear just seems to disappearf' opening K . Y: 5 list Commented director, David Smalley, L'The fact that none of the female characters spoke English made the play more of a chal- lengef' Because of this, the cast members were given an additional three weeks of re- hearsing. During the opening night, lines were forgotten, technical cues were missed, and, states Michael Calkins, anything that could go wrong, did. The play, neverthe- less, improved vastly the next night. The audiences, continuous laughter and ap- plause was proof enough to the cast and crew that Teahouse of the August Moon was another of Basic High School's fantastic theatrical productions' 1.
