I think Iosing is about the worst feeling in the world. The teams we played were experienced varsity teams. I kept telling myself this was our first varsity year but somehow my conscious wouldnlt accept it. Practices every day, come rain or shine, brought back the thoughts of all my bruises, cuts, and the fatigue I felt every night. After each game I almost felt like quitting, but I always remembered that football was a man's sport. With my head held high, I would be at practice the next day, working as hard as I could. trying to fight the memories of losing. As the year came to a close I was depressed, but proud. After all, how many people do you know who would go through what I did without quitting? No one has to tell me football is a man's sport; it is a lesson that I learned well.

I Wonder If the Stage Is My Calling? If the audience enjoyed the senior play. Father of the Bride, as much as I did, then it was one of the best plays Charlestown ever had. There seemed to be a relaxed mood in the audience. but it only extended to the flood lights, because back stage one of our cast members hadn't shown up, and Miss Frey, our director. was in costume - ready to go on. But when the curtains opened our cast member was on stage as if nothing had happened. Of course, those lines weren't easy to memorize. and Pam Hash's wedding veil slightly resembled bedroom curtains. However, I didn't regret the long hours of practice. As the play closed I felt a little sad, but not for long, because I didn't want to be late for the party we had planned afterwards. Ike Sowder's bubble gum makes his part as a little boy more realistic. E . 'vt ROW 1: . t a 5 ,. , . eye. . DeCamp. P. Hash, E. Smith, J. Vogt. R0 W 2: M. McCoy, C. Bowling, T. Hess. ROW 3: A.
