Thank You Devils, For The IRC Crown This was definitely the year for the Blue Devils to take it all. A talented sophomore crew from two years back suddenly became seniors, with their last chance at hand. With this in mind, and a few looks at the team, sportswriters felt we had a wealth of talent. They finished with a 15-5 regular-season record and captured the Iron Range Conference Crown for us. They gave their all in the tourna- ments, but it was almost written in the stars that they wouldn't get farther than Region 7. It was simply a crying shame for the Devils to watch a team they had beaten represent the Range in the state tournament. ‘‘Oh When the Saints go March- ing IN will never really refer to saints again, but to the skating Blues.

Blues Excel On Beam, Floor, And Bars The gymnastics team sported a young group of girls and depended on the leadership of a new coach this year, Miss Trucano. The girls displayed their grace and coordination against many fine Range teams. The seniors on the team took charge and set an example for the rookie gymnasts, who will be girls to look at and admire come next season. 1. Back Row (L-R) K. Higgins, K. Woodward, Dana Hestetune, C.
