DAY BY DAY traditions are born. Mustangs made each day count as they set traditions for the future. One of the first traditions came when the second Manor Bowl was held. Others that followed were the Student-Faculty Basketball Game, the Faculty Show, Christmas baskets for the needy, and Spirit Day. Nostalgia crept into the lives of the Mustangs. Prompted by current movies such as “American Graf- fitti,” “The Way We Were,” “The Great Gatsby,” and “The Sting,’ the Sociology classes presented et CA he Wa ede. 0 ad Be Ry U doctt a eee “Nostalgia Day’, and the theme of the traditional faculty show was “Let’s Go to the Hop.” Mustangs were personally affected by national news such as the gas shortage. Ten-speeds became more and more popular as gas lines became longer and longer.

tees Manor Bowl As sembly... Manor Bowl Assembly sets the Mood for the Events of the Evening On the morning of Friday, November 2, the Field House filled with excited Mustangs. The talk was of pretty legs, Mr. and Miss Manor, a surprise for Coach Joseph Bisese, and whomping Armstrong later that night. . Varsity cheerleaders spon- sored a vote for the “Best Legs” featuring contestants chosen from the football team. For two pennies a vote, members of the student body elected Victor Harris. As an added attraction, Coach Bisese was placed atop a ladder located cen trally in the gym for all to see. As the applause grew louder, Cheryl Gray started on the first step carrying a chocolate creme pie and climbed higher. Needless to say, when she reached the top, applause skyrocketed and Coach Bisese had his dessert for the day! Manor Bowl Assembly-11
