Six day cycle new adventure for everyone Barefoot students had to put their shoes on once again as East Noble High School opened its doors August 31. On the first day of school the gvm was crowded as everyone received their schedules. The juniors and seniors hunted for their I.S. cards while the soph- omores looked for old friends so they could search for their lockers. New students at East Noble in- cluding sophomores from other towns, had different opinions. While some thought the building was cold, having no windows seemed intolerable to others. The rooms seemed almost impossible to find. Who ' d you get for govern- ment? was most often heard from seniors who were fearing the class. RIGHT Rick Minier, president of student council was on hand opening day to help new students. He is seen above talking to the sophomores about the school. Book rental had to be paid at the bookstore during free modules. In the classrooms the teachers introduced themselves and then proceeded to tell what they ex- pected of the students. Most of the students were still trying to get the teachers ' names right. The first day seemed like an eternitv. The ten minute classes seemed like regular length periods. The thought of the second day from 8:20 to 3:27 seemed im- possible. Opening Day 11

Af ter long drought, knights produce 5-3-1 slate Pass the word— the Knights are back! The Knights were really back this year with one of the best conference finishes in the past three years. With one of the strongest returning letterman squads in the N.E.I.C., this year ' s squad had one of the best defenses in the conference. The defense was the backbone of the team with some of the biggest thrills of the year com- ing against E.N. ' s biggest rival, Garrett. The defense proved their strength by forcing a blocked punt by Ted Kirschner while Lynn Spidel recovered in the end zone for the initial touchdown. This first touchdown upped the score 7 to o, in favor of East Noble. Then the offense began to click. With one foot to go for the score something happened that has never happened in the history of high school football. The East Noble Knights ' twelfth man began a roar that stifled both teams. Tom Conley, the Knights ' quarterback, had to ask for quiet because he couldn ' t all the signals so the line could by U.P.I, sports writers for the All-State honorable mention foot- team. Keith Gillian was selected for the All-State honorable men- tion team, most valuable player for the Knights, and was named ABOVE SITTING: R. Barler, T. Rasler, P. Shank, FIRST ROW: S. Hankins, M.
