EVENTS Pussycats VS. Redskins Revolutionize Basketball Variety was the keynote at B-CC this year; in fact, hardly a week went by without some break in the regular routine of classes. These interruptions were always welcome, whether it was the Junior Class benefit basketball game be- tween the faculty Pussycats and the Washington Red- skins or an assembly featuring a prison priest, debaters, foreign exchange students, or B-CC talent.
