Animosity characterized play According to Coach Pagni. the juniors were agile, mobile, and hostile. They were a very quick and well btdanccd team. Coach Howton boasted. The senior warriors are among the finest players I have ever coached. Thus began the intense rivalry between the junior and senior girls in the fall powderpuff cicissic. Practice sessions were long and grueling. For three long weeks, both teams were put through their paces for hours every evening after school and also on weekends. Friendly rivalry has always been a necessary ingredient for the suc- cess of this popular once-a-year sport. But this year on the field, the competition became even more in- tense. Much of the play was characterized by unnecessary roughness, in fact several girls were seriously injured. Each team proved equal to the other in skillful play and rough con- duct. The lead flip-flopped from seniors to juniors, ending the game in an indeterminate tie. 24-24. Often the brag factor exceeded the abilities of either team. Coaches contributed much of the competitive verbage, which added greatly to the feelings of the players before they enter the contest. Since there can be only one winner each year, the junior team inherits a vengeance, carried into next year ' s contest, making the sophomores the hapless victims of the next bid for class supremacy. Even though there was no clear winner, this year ' s con- test was no different. WITH GREAT EFFORT. Marianne Conseur at- tempts to bkKb Krislen Graver HAVING SCORED A touchdown, seniors display their support tor- their fellow teammates. PROVIDING HELPFUL ADVICE, coach George Davis encourages the junior girls to play to the best of their ability.

Double O saved Homecoming In addition to the usual Homecom- ing activities, this year ' s Homecom- ing assembly featured a faculty sbit parodying an orange-and-blacb Douglas Homecoming. The skit was narrated by Joanne Lane. Judy Warren, and Ron Pagni, who weaved a tale of humour and in- trigue for the student body. The sbit started out portraying a normal Reno High School Homecoming, but the sudden ap- pearance of Orange Finger (Roger Glanzman) changed everything. Orange Finger, by means of his mysterious powers, converted a Reno Homecomiiig into a Douglas Homecoming. The outrageously dressed Douglas royalty were couples Sally Ann and Freddy Stud (Sharon See and Ray Hayes): Willamette and Albert (Florence Werry and Stan Benson); Sadie Mae and Horace (Cathy Retterer and John Gilbertson); Muffy and Corby (Marilyn Crane and Everett Marble); and Liz and Jim George Billie Bob (Christine Wiseman and Bill Burr). Next appeared the Douglas Flagteam members (Louise Bullis, Allyn Duncan. Barbara Lee. Mibe Jones, Ken Fujii, Gene Mortara, Carol Eaton, and Katherine Howell), who attempted a performance, but what resulted was pure chaos. The Douglas Songleaders (Olivia Martin, Judy Counter, Linda Morris, Rondi Salter, Carol Tripp, and Jo Barrett) decided not to perform because they were afraid of the possibility of ruin- ing their hair and breablng their nails. Then came the showdown. Douglas star player Bruiser Killer (Joanne Bond) and Orange Finger confronted Reno ' s best (Mary Wycoff) in a less than equal match. At last Double O Scattini (Gene Scattini) arrived to save the day. Orange Finger ' s power faded and he and his devices were sent bacb to Douglas High School, while Double O retained his job, his victories, his wealth, and his good loobs. POSSESSING THE M.
