Yes, the annual powderpuff game was building up to kick-off. Seniors vs. juniors, good vs. evil, ' 84 vs. ' 85, blue vs. white; anyway you look at it, the big game was sure to be a spectacle. Class war was about to begin as the juniors eagerly ap- plied their make-up; the coincidental absences each year at photo time, tried to register as a seniors were planning their strategy. In an interview with the players before the game, it was evident that the tension was mounting toward a possible explosion. During the game, juniors were chanting Blue, Blue, Blue ; while the seniors could be heard growling WHITE, WHITE, WHITE. There was said to be a rumble after the match, but it could not be confirmed. As it turned out, the juniors smeared their cosmetics and, out of embarrassment forfeited the game. So the night ended with the seniors vic- torious and the juniors, well, dishelved. Hey, coverhoy.

The photos were sub- mitted to the yearbook staff as usual, but as time went on the yet-to- be-outwitted yearbook ' staff realized the con- nection between Opie of Girl Escapes Death (AP) — An eighteen year old girl escaped death the night of January 28th, when her truck hit a patch of ice and slid three miles before overturning.

Schaefer under- went test and she, herself confirmed the rumor: her pregnancy is CONTAGIOUS. She notified the class of the good news too late. I assumed that they were infertile, remarked Schaefer.
