Entertainment at Its Best One of the many new and exciting events that occurred at St. Pat's this year was a Bears-Faculty basketball game. In this game a few members of the Chicago Bears Foot- ball Team played a game of basketball against a few select members of our very own faculty. During the game the Bears entertained the crowd with some comical plays and humorous words. The Bears also had some fun with the many children in the crowd. At one point in the game Mr. Buscarini, the referee, and one of the Bears decided to change roles causing roaring laughter from the bleachers. To top off the occasion, two Honeybears joined to cheer on their team. This event was extremely successful drawing a crowd of over one thousand. With much effort and a little ben- ding of the rules the Bears officially won the game. Top Left: Mr. Collins tries to rebound the ball after a missed free throw.
