 0 Snarling up his spaghet- ti, senior Eric Martin prac- tices an alternative method to eating his favorite Italian dish. Rac- Ing against the underclassmen, Eric slurped down the noodles fast enough to earn 20 points for the seniors. It was really gross how we had to eat those noodles just plain like that. I felt like I was going to throw up right in the middle of it It wasn't the most appetizing thing I’ve ever done. If they would have put some sauce on it, I could have beaten anyoneI . .... -Eric Martin - S. Starr OCTOBER 4 SATURDAY Rejoicing after yet another senior turn-over, junior defenseman, Jen- nifer Janik, calls on the of- fensive squad. Though they only held three prac- tices, the juniors learned enough about football to OCTOBER 2 THURSDAY Brainstorming for ideas, seniors Nancy Chang and Laura Serb make last minute plans for the Olym- piad. Laura Serb served as chairrhan of the Olympiad, delegating different duties to her committee. Each homeroom elected par- ticipants for the events with each donating $25. Though most of the plans knock out the more ex- perienced seniors. The of- fense scored all of the points, and the defense shut down the opponent’s offense. Unlike previous years, the competition between the classes re- mained sportsmanlike, and no flagrant violations occured. Though I played varsity volleyball, our coach allow- ed us to participate. The on- ly stipulation was that we weren't allowed to get hurt — like we wouldn't try to avoid it! -Jennifer Janik were made weeks ahead of time, inevitably, the final production crunch came just days before the assembly. On Friday, the Olympiad Committee began setting up in the gym at 8:00 AM and con- tinued decorating until the start of the assembly at 2:00 PM. “For the Olympiad, I was in charge of the lip sync competition. When they began my event, things started to get hectic. We started off with the freshmen, but by the time we got to the seniors, everyone came down out of the bleachers and time started to run out. Also, the classes started chanting and you could hardly hear the tape.'' -Nancy Chang Student Life

We Raised $8500 For United Way Cystic Fibrosis 8,500 dollars would buy two Yugos, 4314 pairs of boxer shorts, or 13,281 cheeseburgers. This was the amount Bay Students raised to support United Way and The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Throughout the week, the Laurie Wilder Fellowship organized activities to raise funds for aiding the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the United Way. Laurie Wilder Week was named after the in- spirational former graduate who battled the disease. In her spirit, the students participated in a ac- tivities that generated money for the cause. Two thousand dollars was raised by the varsity foot- ball team by selling food at lunch periods and conducting a successful door-to-door cam- paign. Culminating the week's festivites, the Olympiad gave students a chance to express their class spirit. Dressed like the Blues Brothers, M.C.'s Chris Beckerman and Tom Germuska helped psyche up the crowd. Junior Frank Andorka com- mented, Even though I had to play in the jazz band, I still had fun rooting on the juniors. The seniors had a slow start, yet rallied to win Laurie Wilder Week with 1453 points. Even though the final goal was $10,000, and the students fell short by $1500, L.W. Treasurer Julia Lee remarked, The campaign was a success even though we didn't reach our goal — at least everyone put in their best effort. Thus, uniting together, the students show- cased Laurie's enthusiasm and topped last year's campaign with both money and spirit. The Seniors Were Thrashed 28-0 In Powderpuff Already burdenend with a seven point deficit, the seniors entered the stadium hoping to clinch a victory. Protesting the seniors' handicap, Anne Waters complained 'Sure, we had one illegal practice, but I don't think we should've lost points for it! Nevertheless, at the time of kick-off, the scoreboard read 7-0 in favor of the juniors. Immediately, the juniors took charge, scoring touchdown after touchdown. Junior quarterback Robin Dutton either handed off to running back Stephanie Van- Skoik, connected with wide receiver Christen Chadwick, or ran the ball herself. I think the main reason we won was that we were able to play as a team, remarked Dutton. On the senior side, even though a barrage of different of- fensive squads were fielded, none were able to rack up any points. Senior linebacker Ann Kraynak pointed out, We weren't prepared to play on such a sloppy field — it was a joke rather than a football game. I think that with a better field, we could have had a much more competitive game. Although the final score was 28-0, there were no hard feel- ings and both classes ex- emplified what Laurie Wilder Week is really about. GIVING A CHEER. Scrambling to pick up styrofoam squigglies, junior Tricia Waltz spurs on her classmates. The ob- ject of the 'Dry T-Shirt Contest was for each class to transport a pile of cur- ly Q's tucked in their shirts to a trash can across the gym. RING AROUND THE ROSY. Stepping in unison, the juniors stagger along through a variation of the sack races. Anticipating this event, the juniors chose participants of the same heighth. SITTING ON THE JOHN. Trying to see an Olympiad event, senior uaedra Lang enlists the aide of classmate John Casey. After bench pressing 270 lbs., Daeara was an easy lift for Jonn.

October 14 Tuesday Look who purchased a Homecoming ticket! Senior Annie Walker adds junior Andy Dutton's name to the list of 175 students who bought tickets before the dance. Student Coun- cil representatives sold tickets during lunch periods for 10 dollars. The price of the tickets was reasonable, and I thought ‘Return to Gilligan's Island' was a really good theme for the dance. -Andy Dutton M. Zukowski October 16 Thursday Suckers sold for 25 cents by sophomore Dana Marquard and junior Kelli Lintz helped to promote class spirit. Everytime a student purchased a sucker, they earned one point for their grade. Students who chose a sucker with a colored bot- tom received one free ticket for the homecoming football game. “We were desperate for an idea to promote class spirit, and selling suckers was the best we came up with. It worked out really well, though.” -Kelli Lintz S. Starr October Friday Showing their spirit, juniors Kim Ihms and Kathy Black cheer on their class during the North Olmsted pep assembly. Class events included a M. Zukowski body pass and male cheerleading competi- tions. Cheerleading cap- tains contacted the presidents of their class and instructed them to choose eight to ten boys to be on each squad. Deter- mined to win, the junior squad held extra prac- tices. Taking first place in the competitions, their hard efforts were rewarded. I loved seeing the guys dressed as cheerleaders because they wore those short skirts which gave the girls a chance to see their sexy legs.- .Kim lhms October MESSAGE BY MALE. With pom-poms held high, junior psuedo-cheerleaders Shawn Kelley, Shawn Davis and Matt Davis enter the pep assembly for their routine. The juniors paraded into the gym to the tune of Fanfare of the Common Man. HI, MOM! Perched atop the homecom- ing float, seniors Laurie Wendenhof and Lisa Niccolai wave to the crowd. The float, a sailboat, took three weeks to make. Only the people who helped to construct the float were allowed to ride on it during the field coronation. | t m
