 R.B.C. Rivalry Proves Profitable for Senior Class Have you ever stopped to think about how food gets distributed to hungry fans at football games? It takes more work than most people think. This year, about twelve dedicated seniors, with the help of advisors Mr. Lock and Mrs. George, worked Saturdays at Buc football games to raise money for the class of 1985. Throughout every home game, especially at halftime, the students filled the orders of enthusiastic spectators. Hot dogs, candy, cookies, soda, coffee, and hot cocoa were on the menu to re- juvenate all the fans. With the roomy concession stand, the devoted seniors could serve as many as ten people at once. The great food really adds to the general atmosphere of the games, commented junior Nina Weiss. To the delight of the class, the first game versus Red Bank Catholic brought scores of hungry fans and profits alike. Grossing $ 1,700, this matchup provided profits far exceeding the average $700 a game. The great start boosted the seniors' enthusiasm for the rest of the season. Mary Riegelman, four-year class president, summed up the morning ac- tivity by stating, It's a lot of work, - but it's also a great deal of fun. 20 Above Left: Senior Antoinette Prattis sells a program to a Buc fan before a home game Above: Senior Class President Mary Riegelman prepares hot dogs for hungry spectators during halftime of the Keansburg match

Lab Assistants Prove Catalysts in Science Department Success Put the rhodospirillum rubirum in the autoclave and when you're done, clean up that hydrodisulfide magnesium Such instructions would sound like familiar gibberish to most students, but not to the 84-85 Lab Assistants. The Lab Assistant program, which originated in 1975, started out with only four students and expanded to eleven, the highest ever. The group consisted of seven sophomores, three juniors, and one senior who were selected from ap- proximately one hundred applicants. The assistants we pick don't necessari- ly have to be science majors, com- mented Mr. Layton, advisor We judge the applicants on their reliability and good attendance record as well as their grades. The main function of the group was to assist science teachers, set up labs, take inventory, repair and maintain equipment, and do any clerical work needed. An added aid to the assistants was the recent installment of a TRS-80 computer, on which the assistants could run a wide variety of helpful programs The kids love it, and spend most of their free time using the teaching pro- grams, explained junior assistant Terry Flynn. The Lab Assistants all pitched in to devote many hard hours of work, and Mr Layton was quick to point out their importance. The assistants are con- sidered part ot the Science Department, and the entire program, especially the lab work, would not function smoothly without them. The students, too, benefit from the program gaining added experience with working with people, and getting hands-on' experience in the lab
