For The Fun Of It! The intramurals sports program pro- vided a lot of good competition and fun this year for all who participated. The program inc luded football, basket- ball, volleyball, bowling, and softball leagues. Almost as important as actual performance seemed to be the team nicknames. Participants displayed a lot of creativity with such names as The Plastic Surgeons (who specialize in face jobs ), Blood Sweat and Beers, Bubba ' s Warriors, and Dukes of Earl, who were the basket- ball champs. With the help and hard work of fac- ulty moderator Mr. Tom Gerencher and student director Tom Seitz the program turned out to be a big suc- cess. It provided an opportunity of non-varsity competition for those who participated, and a lot of entertain- ment for the crowds who showed up to cheer their favorite teams.

Roughing It Year after year dozens of St. Joe students have gotten together in the summer to make a pilgrimage to the Quetico National Forest Reserve in Canada. What is it that compels these ordinary city kids to leave their homes and venture into the vast unknown? It is not the eighty poung backpacks, the long muddy portages, or the wet sleep- ing bags. What the Canadian wilder- ness trip does offer the students is a challenge. The campers prove that they can live without any modern con- veniences. They can survive the most primitive conditions. They can over- come rain and heat and dried chili con carne dinners. The campers spend their days canoeing, swimming, sun- bathing, or cooking out. Life is simple in the Quetico and the students enjoy the freedom and beauty of the out- doors. Most people wouldn ' t want to spend too long in the Quetico, but it is an adventure not soon forgotten and a vacation experience rarely duplicated.
