The Thrill of Victory and the Agony of Defeat Some students like sports but don't want to commit them- selves to a heavy practice schedule. Because of this, intermur- als came about. This type of team sport enables friends, clubs, and organizations to bind together and enjoy a bit of friendly rivalry. Annually, football, soccer, basketball, tug-of-war, and volleyball are competitive events that occur. Participation in these games is not forced, the teams are organized by individ- ualsg anyone and everyone can play. The soccer intermurals were held September 3-October 30. The Team emerged victorious over six other teams playing. Phoenix ll was defeated by the Team in the final game. The second annual 'Great Palm Bay Tug-Off' was held De- cember 15-17. Sixteen teams, comprised of 148 students grunted and groaned as they each put forth all the effort they had to pull the other team headlong into the mud. The team at the origin of the final winning tug was X-Country. They defeat- ed the Rhinos who was made up of members from the varsity football team. Those who participated in any intermural enjoyed the fun, sportsmanship and camaraderie that took place at these events. At last, high school sports for fun, not profit. Girls have muscles too, and here Linda Burnes shows just how many muscles she has as she tugs her way to victory. The agony of defeat struck once again, this time it hit Kelly Miller and McCove Sutton. The force was enough to knock them clear off their feet. Fighting what seemed to be a losing battle, Russ Manion was pulled nearer and nearer to the losing line. It was the splash heard around the world, as senior Paul Tolbert was dragged down in the mud. 24 f TUG OF-WAR

The cast as well as crew worked hard on the show for nine weeks. There were just a few problems facing the show, but as soon as technical week came around every- thing seemed to fit into place. The new drama teacher, Sharon Reynolds, was extremely pleased, as were all vs-LS who saw the show. A special performance was made for those who couldn 't attend the regular performances.
