vytass £ ropneci It is the year 1960 and floating over the new Hopewell Stadium comes the lilting voice of Miss Jackie Ivey, famous the world over as the “golden voice of radio. ' She is here today to broadcast “the” game of the year bet ween Hope- well and Notre Dame. The former, having won the State Championship for ten straight years, decided to schedule stronger opposition. Let’s listen to Miss Ivey for a moment. “Ladies, and gentlemen, too, welcome to the Homecoming of the Class of 1950. It is a beautiful day here at the Weezle Bowl and it seems as though the whole United States has turned out for the big event. Attention, all alumni, please sit in the reserved section on the far side of the field. And, now a word from our sponsor, Blah, blah . . . .” Now we are back struggling through the jams of peop le to the reserved section . Why, there are some of our former cheerleaders,[ jane Lanieiii-N ancv Cas k ins Nancy Butterworth, and Anne Vance, who are now career girls. They flew down from New York for the big game. Girls, aren’t those men over there rather familiar? Why, certainly, they are former Hopewell football stars. They also made history at Notre Dame, and have come to see both of their Alma Maters clash today. Remember them? They are James Ashton, Clyde Balderson, Madison Elmore, Wilton Barco, Glen Ivrumel, Bob Askew, Thomas Pentacost, and James Edwards. Well, Notre Dame will be playing against the great team known as Merner’s Muscleheads. By the way, Merner is going to Annapolis next year to coach Navy’s big team. Nick Klonis has been signed up to lead the Devils to victory next year. More news from the pressbox! Isn’t that? Why, yes, there are Sidney Kesler, and Milton Alford working the controls. We can see a few other cele¬ brities up there. Look, Miss Jean Olive and Mr. Frank Price, rival editors, are gathering news for their extra editions which they expect to publish immediately after this game. A commercial has just been announced whi ch causes quite a murmur among the spectators. There is to be quite an after-the-game affair at “Jeffie’s Country Club” owned by Eugene Jefferson, with a so ng and dance sp ecialty by the n ationally famous but none other than our own [GaTT “Blue s” Van BenthuysenJ The few last-minute arrivals are trying desperately to find a seat. Pushing their way through the mob, we see former Dotsy McCracken, Mary Payne, Shirley Jones, and Jackie Janosik (who have left their husbands at home baby¬ sitting). Well, the time has finally arrived for the kick-off, as officials Manual Gankakis and Garland Sasser walk out onto the field with the “Blue Devils” Co- Captains, while from the opponent’s side approach Referees Arthur Bennett and Pete Wells. Among the outstanding voices cheering, we hear Laura Belle Miller, Floy Hargrave, Ruth Meadows, Dotty Murty, and Naomi Svnan, who have kept their lungs in fine yelling condition for this important game. The Hopewell High School Band is assembling to perform their usual pre¬ game entertainment. The band, by the way, is being directed by “Chicle Mac” for the last year. He is moving up to Annapolis with Coach Merner to conduct the mighty Navy Band. Joseph Svnan is expected to take over the H. H. S. Band next year. Let’s take time out now to buy our refreshments for the game. Here comes Leon Halkos who has done quite well for himself these past few years manufactur¬ ing and selling his famous “Halkos” trade mark peanuts, popcorn, and candy.
