Lei-lermen's Win Breaks the Tie The competition was fierce in the third annual Donkey Basketball Game on November 8. With the faculty winning in '77 and the Lettermen being victorious last year, each team was determined to be the victor and break the tie. The first quarter started out fast with the Lettermen jumping out in front. Toward the end of the game, the experi- enced faculty tied it up. With a few sec- onds left, the Lettermen scored the last two points and beat the faculty by a score of 48 to 46. The high scorer of the game was Coach Gordon. Casualties of the event included Eric Fleischmann who was literally bounced off the floor after sailing over the head of his donkey Loco. Chris Legrow suffered no injuries despite being thrown by his mount Ginger. And Coach Qualheim showed great expertise in donkey han- dling when he managed to retain control of the reins as he was hurled far up on the neck of his donkey Jenny Lou. Proceeds from the game Cover S5005 went toward the purchase of the new weight-lifting machine currently being used by the athletic department.

This brought the crowd onto the gym floor to do their own rendition of Worm from the movie Animal House. Another highlight of the assembly was the Drill Team's routine.

Mr. Cool contest was held with repre- sentatives senior Bill Merren, junior Louie Perea, sophomore Andy Legrow, and freshman Kenny Baker, as the com- petitors. Because the determined Coo- lies refused to get up off the huge ice cubes, the crowd was left to decide the X .ff winner. The enthusiastic sophomores won the contest for Andy Legrow. Later that night, McDisco provided entertainment for the dance. Seniors Donna Dunham and Jim Canada won the Daisy Mae and Lil' Abner contest by rais- ing the most money 1552.3 Perhaps the highlight of the evening was Mr. Moses' marriage booth.
