Super Seniors ' Scrunch ' Underclassmen “The referees were hilarious.” (Judy Morris) Because the Reconstruction Era left South temporarily without a stadium, a basketball game replaced Philo ' s annual Powderpuff football game. Full of jumpballs, the game ended in a 19-13 victory for Super Seniors, coached by Hawk Banet, Harry Hel- vie. Bashful Blanks, and Hateful Hanauer. Phabulous Phil Morey and Miraculous Melton trained the luck¬ less underclass women. Though Referees Mendenhall and Waldrop were hardly accurate, they and Hi-Y guys added comedy.

Seniors Find Graduation Exciting, Scary “It ' s scary being a senior because next year I’ll start off in a whole new world.’’ (Anita Leas) Seniors viewed their last year with mixed emotion. They were eager for independence; yet they dreaded severing ties with family and child¬ hood friends. They had to plan for the future. Besides struggling with tests, applications, grades, and belonging, many had jobs. The Class of ’73 eliminated the annual Senior Reception. To suffice, many partook of “Our Last Supper,’’ the banquet, which took place in the cafeteria. The New World Quintet satisfied most, but nobody enjoyed the food. Tom Toy presented guests. A prom ended planned social events. Most, garbed in green, received diplomas agreeing with John Carpenter, “I’m glad to graduate, but I almost hate to go.’’ Almost. ABOVE —‘‘Rappin’ Round” candidates Richard Smith, Cathy Shedron, Keith Miller, and Kathy Schmidt discuss subject ideas.

Although Higher Education Day was for all, seniors benefited most.
