excitement , laughter, and tears The excitement. . . t he junior and senior classes always have been, and will be, rivals. The 1959-60 competition reached its epitome at the Jr. -Sr. game, where the best team won, the seniors. The coach-referee friction was pretty good too.

Mr. Chris Traicoff was one of the lucky ones to have his services sold to the highest bidder. The tears. . .At many a game did the fans sit with tears flowing down their faces at the thought of defeat. This game was an exception.
