! , The Faculty's Lady in Red was Mrs. Yvonne Fisher. Ps K We thought the game was supposed to be played on top of the donkeys! No horseplay! Hoofed Hoopsters Touchdown! Jumping Joe Morello is having some trouble, but after 19 or 20 tries. . . This group seems to be having trouble moving their asses. as-.,, I and eleven other donkeys went to Cleveland High School on December 17, 1969, to partake in the schooI's first donkey basketball game. We, the work-horses Cif you'll pardon the expressionj, were disappointed in not receiving the recognition we deserved. The game began with one of my friends dropping a few things, but soon all was swept up and the contest was on. Although the Faculty received the ball first, the Lettermen were first to score. By the end of the half, the game was tied 12-12. Half-time came and the Booster Club, which sponsored the game, sold donuts and coke. Do you think they'd think of us? No! All we wanted to do was hit the hay. The buzzer sounded and the second half began with a FenwickfFederer combination that sunk three of the first four shots. An exceptional play was made by quick thinking Brian Wines who held the basket shut on lVlr. Silverman's shot. However, Mr. Silverman was rewarded the basket. At the game's end, the Lettermen had bucketed 32 points to the Faculty's 30. When I trotted out for a shower and a good rub down I heard Coach Nye comment on their Varsity Club win. Hey, Faculty! Maybe next year!

fitme F Or S On Saturday, December 6, 1969, D'Artagnan Hall was transformed into the courtyard of a medieval castle for the annual Girls' League Vice-Versa Dance. Through the efforts of Girls' League President, Debbie Dierinzo, and Vice Presi- dent, Lois Whitley, the atmosphere of D'Artagnan Hall was reminiscent of the vanished age of chivalry, romance, and pageantry-the age of Romeo and Juliet. Coats of arms swagged between silhouetted windows, glorified the grey stone walls which surrounded the castle courtyard. Tall stone towers, castle gate, and a canopy of royal purple and ice blue streamers helped to capture the theme: A Time For Us. Couples in semi-formal attire danced to the exceptional music of Boon, During the band breaks, selections from a Henry Mancini album, including the Love Theme from Romeo and Juliet, were played for everyone's enjoyment. Couples were invited to feast on delicious cookies and drink the delightful punch served by the Nlarquisettes and Yeomen. Following the dance, couples repeated tradition by eat- ing a late supper at various community restaurants. The girls treated their escorts to a magnificent evening. 1

K ' ' -... X x Q 1- -f if Cavaliers Fall d Over Heels For Bones ! On Nlarch 11, 1970, even the sun turned-on to Cleveland's first out-of-sight, mind-blowing, heavy, hard rock happening. Activity card holding Cavaliers massed into the football bleachers to experience Cleveland's first pop fesitval. Bones performed a fantastic pro- gram of various originals. Head over Heels, however, would not be upstaged and one of the members ran hurdles in rhythm to a Bones selection. Head Over Heels followed, displaying the hard rock ability that makes them the biggest group east of the Mississippi. Cleveland's pop festival was certainly one of the best!
