« W) r- Z Q Q 1 — U ' Q z I 1 u Q V9 I considered it a cliallenging and thought-provoking drama, com- mented Masque and Gavel sponsor Fransis May about M G ' s two act entitled The Ettect ot Gamma Rays on Man in the Moon Marigolds. The story of the play revolved around a divorced widowed, mother, Beatrice, played by Junior Sue Holt. Beatrice has two daughters and she is soured and embittered by the adversities of an impoverished exist- ence. The two daughters, Ruth and Tillie were played by Junior Amy Coffman and Freshman Dawn Lopshire. Other members of the cast were Freshman Laura Coffman as Nancy and Senior Margie Louden playing Janice Vick- ery. Mr. May said From the point of view of comparison with other M G plays, — Saturday night ' s perform- ance ranked with the best. (Even the few technical flubs Saturday night were of minor significance.) He went on to say club membership was the cause for many restrictions in selec- tion of plays, but when it came to quality, What the Civic Theater can do, we can do!

Below — Showing what true Hoosier Hyste- ria is, the Bulldog crowd goes wild, as John Moyer gets fouled with 1 second remaining in the game. Right — Coach John Hans barks some instructions to the Bulldog squad and finally calls a time out to pull the team back together. Crepe paper, balloons and cries of We ' re Number One! were all part of the spirit shown to back the Bulldogs in sectionals 1 976. New Haven drew Bishop Luers on Wednesday, February 25 and started preparations for sectional week. Stu- dents fronn all four classes decorated their sections of the halls. Pep Club and Sportsmanship Council members showed their enthusiasm by decorat- ing the gym and cafeteria. Awarded with first prize for the best decorated hall was the Senior Class. Junior and Sophomore classes were awarded with the spirit stick for show- ing the most Bulldog hysteria at the pep session. The varsity cheerleaders were pre- sented corsages and roses from the J.V. and Freshmen cheerleaders. Coach Hans and the team were then presented with a purple and gold cake in the shape of a horseshoe to show the roundballers that the fans were behind them all the way. Faculty members performed their traditional sectional skit which was titled Knights-vs-Bulldog Super Stars. After the cheers and speeches were finished, the Seniors were called to the floor to form a path so the players could pass through to yells of We Will Win! Students assembled in the parking lot that evening with decorated cars and high spirits before making their way to the Coliseum. In the first sectional game against Luers the Bulldogs displayed almost disastrous basketball skills for 31 min- utes and 59 seconds of the aame. But during the final second, with the score 45 to 45 John Moyer reacted as one should under pres- sure and calmly sank both ends of a one and one as the final buzzer rang and the Bulldog fans went wild! However, in the semi-final game against Wayne, New Haven fans left the Coliseum in a much different manner with unhappy and disgusted faces after being defeated in overtime 72 to 66.
