lBelowl, Sr. ball-carrier Jim Dowdy strains to elude ir. linebacker Ron K oleba on an end run. Juniors Upset Three- I look at this football season as a transitional period, remarked lVlr. Neville Wilkins, director of physical education. ln the past the emphasis was on team winning. I hope the changes will put the stress on a personal victory. Lack of protective equipment was another major factor that influenced new rules. Keith Habermas of the sophomore team remarked, The strategy of the game was changed considerably. Speed is the essen- tial factor in this new type of foot- ball. This analysis proved correct as the senior football team sprinted through the season with a record of 9 wins, 0 losses. The Junior Tara- Tackles , the seniors' closest rivals, trailed with 6 wins, 3 losses, hoping for victory in the final game. October 26th greeted players and spectators with above 600 weather. Mid-way through the sec- ond quarter, Keith Boody romped over the goal line to put the Juniors ahead 6-0. A couple punts for singles at the end of the third quarter extended their lead to 8-0. Finally, with four minutes left in the game, Gary lvlengershausen caught a 7 yard TD pass and put the seniors back into the game. But, as the final whistle blew the scoreboard read 8-6 for the juniors. They were to share the 1974 trophy with the seniors, the champs of three previous years! After the game one freshman student commented on the sportsmanship of the fellows. They're still friends even after op- posing each other in a football game! Jim Nicholson P.

More girls are beginning to recognize their physical education program as offering not only physical exercise, but time for per- sonal sharing as well. Of the four electives offered, regular P.E. and conditioning allow for enrollment regardless of class standing. These corporate classes afford opportunity for un- derclassmen to meet up- perclassmen, and often new friendships are established. lt was actually through P.E. last year that I got to know a senior living on my floor, laughed Pam Gill, a sophomore in Bible School. Senior badminton has now joined the competitive sports which are restricted to class participa- tion. I don't really know other lLeftj Freshman Annie Braun spikes the ball to senior Carol Rowland lr. 1. senior girls very well, so this is a good chance for me to get to know them, reasoned Sharon Lamfers. Many other girls also recognize in these electives an opportunity to strengthen their class unity. A general attitude of relaxation is maintained in volleyball and basketball competition. Though team enthusiasm definitely exists, the girls don't feel pressured to win. You're just as happy to play a good game and lose it, as to play a poor game and win it, said Leah Flausch. Cindy Langerman agreed with her evaluation. We go in to volleyball to share mistakes as well as victories! lt is within this whole context of recreation that the girls are learn- ing to appreciate each other's true personality. Darlene Flashleigh is discovering this valuable aspect of the P.E. program, we don't have enough of this kind of fellowship, and we should be taking advantage of it! Georgina Stamps
