◄Senior players gather with the cheerleaders after the vic- tory to show who is traditionally number one on Powderpuff Day. YJuniors Lisa Jonason and Robbyn Earl avoid senior Dana Frahm to slow down the senior squad ' s quick offensive attack. The game was played for blood. At the final count two people were seriously injured. Sue Stasiak broke a finger and Debbie Brown was out of school for two weeks after hurting her shoulder during a practice. The moans and groans caused by aching muscles on Monday morning were constant reminders to juniors, and little comfort to seniors, as the older squad won the an- nual Powderpuff football game, 28-0. The seniors had their problems, though, with the loss of Coach John Brindley to a severe case of monohepatitis. Although he could not coach from his hospital bed, words of wisdom and poems rang through the school to encourage his team and enrage the juniors. Mr. Dick Norris replaced Mr. Brindley and led them to victory. The loss of Mr. Brindley dampened spirits but not the desire to win. The juniors had trouble getting all of their players to practices and that proved to be their downfall. Their lack of experience showed heavily in their inability to score any points. Sandy Cooley remarked, “Our senior team was all together. We worked hard and put forth a good effort.”

THE WRAP-UP ROLLS ON Darkness falls. A car pulls up, quickly extinguishing its lights. A cloud of suspicious-looking shadows creeps through the night, hands in- visible. Suddenly, like lightning bolts, streams of toilet paper streak through the air, engulfing an entire house and yard. Another honor” is bestowed on an “innocent” victim. A new rash of TP-ing begins, but local wig-wams are not the only targets. Sometimes automobiles fall prey to the tissue terrorists. It is a tribute to the fast-moving marauders. Special tactics are practiced by the veteran TP tossers. Among the most effective is to TP just before a light mist, or rain. The rain causes the paper, especially generic varieties, to stick and fall apart, mak- ing clean-up far more difficult. Of course, when it reaches this point, thoughts of ever cleaning-up the mess fall to the wayside. By then, it ' s impossible. Most of the fun, and all of the risk, is in eluding capture by residents, nosy neighbors or policemen. This means night-time expeditions are most desirable. The price for being caught, at current rates, (if charges are pressed) is $50 per roll. You also get the privilege of cleaning up the mess. But this in no way deters expert TPers from continuing the mad ram- page that blankets so many cars, yards and houses in two-ply colors. Indeed, some discriminating TP affi- ciondos even try to accentuate the decor with such accessories as balloons, soap, crepe paper, and, weather permitting, shaving creme. Teachers can be favorite targets of the artful assailants. Concerning the number of times she had been honored Miss Ann Thompson said, “I haven’t had to buy toilet paper all year.” God made the world beautiful,” quipped Vykke Young, but he left out one thing — and it’s Soft and Pretty.” ▲ To keep the toilet paper intact, it must be tied around the mirrors and hooked into gas caps, door handles and bumpers. ► The best part is watching the reaction on the T.P.ed person ' s face. After the initial shock, Todd Willis inspects the squeezably soft substance all over his truck. 18 — Feature
