Ah, a chance to relax. It ' s Party Time Friday ' s last bell has rung, and another long school week has been completed. To be sure, the student has many things to look forward to in the very near future: a long weekend, a big game, or, among upperclassmen, a party. Ah, a party, the perfect weekend. Upperclassmen find parties can create a better atmosphere for relaxing and socializing than a game or a dance. There is more a sense of being my own boss — of goofing off the way I want to goof off. Open or closed. A small house party of 12 or a large yard party, complete with a bonfire, of over 100. It makes little difference. The key is relaxing my own way. The hecticness of the school week is behind me. It ' s a chance to talk with people I haven ' t seen in a long time, listen to my favorite music without being afraid of making too much noise, and generally having a good time. It ' s an excellent way to relieve pressures that have built up. While fast food joints still remain popular, the party seems to be the order of the day for the upperclassman.n — John Stengle After the Game 15

After the game, Knights begin Searching for a Sanctuary After the drudgery of 40 class hours, the week- end arrives. It is most heartily welcomed as a relief to the middle-of- the-week, 2-tests-l-quiz- a-day blues. A major highlight of the weekend usually includes some athletic activity, such as a football or basketball game. As the rivalry and competition peak on the field of play, the stands exude with the rowdiness of excess en- ergy finding a healthy outlet. But what do you do after the game? In Toledo, it takes someone truly creative to find something unique. The old standards seem much more popular. For those wanting to pig out after the game, McDonald ' s, Burger King, or Wend ; ' s offer a burger and fries to satisfy the hunger pangs. If it ' s not burgers you crave, then a pizza from Little Caesar ' s, Pizza Hut, or Godfather ' s may hit the spot. After the chow, video games enter the picture. Fat Daril ' s, Putt-Putt, or Ozzie ' s often swarm with bodies wanting to unwind. For those, however, who prefer to avoid the crowded fast food scene and mellow out, there are other options to choose from. Since late night television is a sanctuary of creative talent, arrang- ing to meet at a predestined house after the game to watch Fridays, Saturday Night Live reruns, or Second City Television has grown in popularity. Only a hoser would turn down such a chance. As always, however, for those who are more ambitious, a good party can be found someixihere in the Toledo area. Being creative after the game can be difficult, but most Knights make the best of it. Only a hoser wouldn ' t.

His body mistakenly reclaimed by an incompetent messenger, Joe worked hard to convince everyone that Heaven Can Wait A great mistake has been made. Joe Pendle- ton, boxer and sax player, has been taken up to Heaven too soon by an overzealous escort. Naturally, he must be put back in his body right away but, alas, Max has already had it creamated. As a result, Joe is placed temporarily into the body of a wealthy banker, Jonathan Farns- worth, whose wife Julia and her boyfriend Tony just tried to kill him. The events form the plot of Heaven Can Wait, a comedy-fantasy by Harry Segall which was brought to life by students from St. Francis, St. Ursula, and Notre Dame. Work began weeks before the curtain went up, under the direction of Mr. Robert Stucker, a veteran at wrestling drama from words. Cast and crew sacrificed their time to get the best show possible — and it paid off. On three foggy November nights, room 100 was transformed first into Heaven, then into the Farnsworth living room. Great detail was put into the sets to insure reality. Cast members walked like, talked like, and became their characters, as they pre- sented the drama and comedy of the situation to the audience seated cabaret-style around the stage. Joe, Max, Julia, Tony and company found their way into St. Francis as Dave Gibbs, Kevin Howard, Pat Beckmann, and Dave Boezi left their person- alities in dressing room 202. Dave Gibbs ex- plained why anyone would become a part of the play when he said, it ' s a lot of fun. As it turned out, Farnsworth, that is Joe, was shot and placed in the body of a murdered boxer so that he could live his life as it was meant to be lived. Of course, Joe also managed to get the pretty girl in the end.D — Pat Gonzalez (Jabbins away, Farnsworth, alias Joe Pendleton, and Tony discuss business, much to Tony ' s displeasure. Photo by J.
