Academic Bowl llAcademic Bowl? What's that? was what many peo- ple said when asked about academic bowl. The Aca- demic Bowl team was prob- ably one ot the least under- stood clubs at Eisenhower High School. In reality it just wasn't one team, it was two. Just like the sports, it had a Varsity team and a Junior Varsity team. Both teams went to tourna- ments and matches, compil- ing a very good record. This year both teams be- longed to the Central Illinois Scholastic League, which was a group of nine schools, Monticello, Warrensburg- Latham, Mt. Pulaski, Ar- genta-Oreana, Mt. Zion, St. Theresa, Mahomet-Seymor, Clinton, and Eisenhower. Ev- ery Monday night for a month the team members played two other teams. At the end of the month Eisen- hower's Varsity team had a record of 6 wins and 2 losses, coming in tied for first. Then on December 6th, l9B6 the team went to Mt. Pulaski for the league tournament, at which they were 4-4, coming in 5th place. Vicki Short, the team captain, was named to the CISL All-Tournament team. The JV team was made up of Freshmen and Sopho- mores, with John Fultz as their captain. Their questions were somewhat easier than the Varsity, but not by much. Their record during league play was 2 wins and 6 losses. Each team consisted of 5 players who were competing and the alternates. A match consisted of two halves, dur- ing which the players were asked questions like l'Name seven ways to prepare eggs by themselves , l'Name all six of l-lenry Vlll wives in or- der , to Calculus questions like MGive the derivatives of 'i .f-ffiflernif. Bowl la? x +7x' +- 6 and fbl 6x'lx+ 6J . If they answered a toss-up right, they got a chance to answer a bonus question. They certainly were an im- portant part of life at Eisen- hower. Oh, and the answers to those questions? The 7 dif- ferent ways to prepare eggs are poached, hard boiled, soft boiled, fried, scrambled, an omelet, and baked. l-lenry the Vlll's wives were Cather- ine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Katherine l-loward, Katherine Parr, and the de- rivatives are 6x5+l4 and lBxZ+72x.
