In a year when tensions in the community were high, with busing demonstrators lining the highway and na- tional guardsmen at neigh- boring high schools. Bishop David was a haven of sereni- ty for those first few months at the beginning of school. After all this was the year of our country ' s bicentennial. Spirit and pride remained the Falcon way of life and the students found that the Bis- hop David experience was the best teacher. Mmmm, boy, that milk is good! says Jody Leonard as he starts at the day with milk and doughnuts in the cafeteria along with quick cram- ming for a test.

ield Day The Field Day, sponsored by the Stu- dent Councils and B. D. and Angela Merici, had to be postponed because of rain, but after a week of waiting, it finally took place on Wednesday, October 1, 1975. The schools were divided into two divi- sions: Frosh-Soph and Junior-Senior home- rooms. The B.D. students set out competing in such events as the 220-yard dash, relay races, Push-Bali, frisbe toss, and other field events in the morning. One homeroom win- ner was decided from each division. Home- room 212 carried off the Frosh-Soph divi- sion honors. As the girls streamed in at lunch time, the events turned to the light side with the girls and boys competing side-by-side in the dizzy-lizzy, locomotive, sack race, and the balloon toss. David Evel Lyons attempted his tradi- tional spectacular Mud Puddle Jump . Not breaking with tradition, Evel ' s jump stopped midway and he ended up in the mud puddle, bicycle and all. The day culminated with the traditional tug-of-war over the specially created mud hole. With the B.D. homerooms teamed with the A.M. homerooms, it was a messy way to end a spectacular day. 1Tb ABOVE: Cringing with the thought of his balloon bursting, Dana Mattingly safely completes the catch.
