Teams achieve beyond league Four teams managed to reach levels of competition beyond Ches-Mont ac- tion. In cross country, two runners com- peted in the PIAA District I Cham- pionship race. Tim Groff got first place in that race, breaking the previous record by 19 seconds. He also placed third in the PIAA Class AAA State Cham- pionship race, Todd Bergey placed sixth in that race. Three wrestlers advanced to sec- tionals - Matt Landis, Kevin Mitchell, ajad Steve Boyer. Mitchell was the run- ner-up in sectional competition, and all three wrestlers went on to the district level. Boyer and Landis were eliminated there, but Mitchell placed second with a loss of the first-place title in the final rounds of competition. With his second- place title, Mitchell went on to the regionals. He is only the second Bear wrestler to advance to that level of com- petition, Mitchell's 18-12 season ended at the Southeast Regional tournament. After winning Boyertown's first Ches- Mont title in basketball, the cagers also were involved in district competition. District I play-off games included wins against Central Bucks West, West Chester Henderson, and Radnor. The final game in district competition was played against Conestoga at the Palestra. The Bears lost that title game, ending the competition one point away from the District I championship.

The team ended its 30-3 season with a loss to Reading in the eastern semi-finals. A second-place rating in Ches-Mont league play enabled the softball team to advance to District I playoffs.

The a'la carte line, recently divided into two lines to provide faster service, gave students a choice of hamburgers, hot dogs, salads, sandwiches, ice cream, cakes, pies and potato chips. A second option was the canteen in the gym lob- by. Hamburgers, hot dogs, and snacks were sold there. Milk and juice machines were located in both the cafeteria and canteen. Students also had the option of going out for lunch. Students also spent money supporting fund-raising projects sponsored by various classes and school groups. The magazine drive was a profitable enterprise for the sophomores. Prizes were awarded every day for high salesperson. In addition, Spot-O-Gold cards were received for each magazine sold, lf the number rubbed from the spot on the student's card matched a number on the posted list, the student won a prize. Prizes included skateboards, radios, swing-a-lings, candles, iron-ons, and stuffed animals. Prizes were also given for the amount of magazines a student sold. These ranged from class mugs to calculators. Early in the school year, the junior class sold calendars to raise money for their treasury. The linen calendars came in several designs. The most popular design was one representing Boyertown Senior High. The sale was successful, and the junior's profits surpassed those of last year's class. Besides fund-raising projects students spent money on admissions to concerts, plays, and dances held at school. Spending Money
