 7fla©QQ Genesis Invisibly Touched Its Fans Genesis songs were in the air the night of the Invisible Touch concerts at the Coliseum in late January. Originally scheduled to perform only one night, the band added two extra performances to accommodate the number of fans who wished to attend. Because of the Super- bowl, the concert was post- poned for one hour on Sunday, the opening night. The band performed for two and a half hours each night and played a variety of old and new songs. During the second en- core, Genesis played a variation of Turn it On with excerpts of older songs by the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. It was a great way to end a great con- cert, remarked Julie Tomlinson. Concert souvenirs were sold for prices ranging from $3 for a button to $35 for a sweatshirt. By the second night, concession stands had already sold out of certain items. Whether students bought a souvenir or not, this was a concert that they would not forget. Broncos Bit Dogs Look who almost made it to the Superbowl . . . those bad, bad Cleveland Browns. Unfor- tunately, the Browns were leash- ed by the Denver Broncos in overtime. Although the Browns were winning in the fourth ?|uarter, the Broncos scored a leld goal to tie the game. Going into overtime, the Browns had THAT SPECIAL TOUCH. The day after attending the Invisible Touch concert, junior Mike Smith wears a Genesis t- shirt. Mike purchased the shirt for $17. possession of the ball. Unable to move the ball far enough down the field, the offense was forced to punt. After receiving the ball, the Broncos worked their way down the field. Once into field goal range, they kicked the win- ning goal ana won by three points, 23-20 Getting into the full Browns fever the day of the game, students either went to the stadium or had Browns parties at home. Senior Tom Germuska commented, I watched the game at Krissy Baird's house. I was all decked out with dog biscuits and a rubber dog nose. The cheering in her basement was louder than some basketball ames. I loved it, even if my eart was shattered that we lost. — M. Zukowski THE DAWG DAYS OF WINTER. Senior Chris Beckerman cheers on the dawgs during the final quarter of the Cleveland-Denver football game. This all-senior party was held at Krissy Baird's house. January

THAT SPECIAL GIFT. While shop- pine for Christmas presents, freshman Madeline Reed looks at the Higbee's downtown store. The whole store was filled with holiday decorations. ROCK 'N ROLL. On New Year's Eve, Mark Tumnev accompanies the band You Tell Me. Mark has been playing the bass for 4 years. — M. Zukowski Early in the morning, the Red Cross Blood- mobile pulled into Bay High School. Its volunteers were ready to collect blood from students to help people in the Cleveland area who desperately needed it. The project was sponsored by the Student Council so members helped the Red Cross register donors, take temperatures, and sit with the donors to make sure they were okay after they gave blood. At first I wanted to chicken out, but then I got the guts up to do it. It didn't hurt when they put the nee- dle in my arm; it just felt un- comfortable. It seemed to take a million years to fill a bag up. The only person I saw who got sick was Scott Loomis. He fainted because he had to carry all of the blood people gave out to the truck. -Brenda Harris DECEMBER FRIDAY To celebrate the beginn- ig of Christmas vacation, le yearbook homeroom had a tacky gift exchange. Everyone brought in one tacky gift and all of the gifts were shoved under the tree. Here, Scott Troia, dressed for the holidays, fights with Carolyn Fain over one of the gifts. One of the gifts was a Partridge Family album. Jill Carsten got a Raggedy Anne kaleidoscope. It was just the coolest thing! I got a pez machine with a whistle on top! -Carolyn Fain — M. Zukowski — M. Zukowski Student Life DECEMBER FRIDAY At the Avon Lake basketball game, senior Jim Dowling, better knowr as Bubbles” led the fans in cheering for the Rockets. The following Monday, Jim received a pass to report to the of- fice. There, Mr. Loomis told him that because of his obnoxious behavior at the game, the administra- tion felt it was best for him to not attend anymore basketball games. Feeling that this treatment was unfair because others were involved, senior Bill Hartranft wrote a 'paragraph about what had happened along with a petition to get Bubs back and hung it on the Student Activities Board. A few days later, the petition was taken down. Senior Joe Bernecker along with junior Bob Reed then got the idea to hand out fliers using Bub's senior picture. After missing only two basketball games, Bubs was back. The administra- tion let Jim return as long as he promised to promote Bay in a positive way. Half of the campaign was done as a rebellion against the administration because we thought the punishment for what Bubs did was too harsh, especial- ly when other people were doing the same thing. He only had to miss a few games, so I guess the cam- paign was a success! Just in case Mrs. Dowling reads this, your son didn’t do anything, I swear! -Bob Reed DECEMBER 15 MONDAY

JANUARY 19 MONDAY Students did not have school In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. on January 19. Although most holidays are spent relaxing or engaging in fun-filled activities, on this day the majority of students prepared for semester ex- ams. Having the day off was a blessing for those who waited until the last day to cram for tests. I went to the library to study for finals, because I knew I wouldn't get anything done if I stayed at home. ■Scott Anderson Having Friday off, students spent the day completely different than the free day on Monday. After three hectic days of exams, students enjoyed themselves and did not worry about school. Men- tally fatigued, students JANUARY 23 FRIDAY chose relaxing activities like a movie, shopping, or sleeping. “After a difficult week of studying for exams, I thought a movie would be fun and relaxing. -Kelli Flanagan — M. Zukowski — M. Zukowski SHEAR EFFORT. Preparing for midterm exams, seniors Craig Murray and Chris Shear attempt to study. Because they graduated before finals week, these ex ams were the last hour and a half tests that they took. JANUARY 26 MONDAY “Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow”. Although no one sang this song aloud, many members of ski club felt this way. Ski club pro- vided fun and memorable times for the 95 students who joined. On five Mon- days in January and February, students rode 45 minutes on greyhound busses to Boston Mills. Once they arrived, students who needed to rent skis did so, and lessons were offered to those who wanted to take them. Called off the slopes at 8:15 p.m., students were allowed to ski about four hours each time. Ski club provided members with exercise and exciting entertainment. “This year was my first time skiing. My friends and I all joined as beginners and took the classes. I was kind of scared at first, but in the end, I had a great time. -Karin Cass — S. Starr Student Life
