Taped in advance, the High-Q show is later viewed by the team. Whizzes vie in scholastic bottles High-Q's practice sessions were so-called because in between eating, watching Vanity Fair for Mrs. Blalock and doing finger exercises, members prepared for the upcoming show. With a packed studio and support from mascots Barbi, Linda, and Lori, capt. David Klein and team claimed a vic- tory of 210-75. The valiant scholars attempted to confuse their Categorically Speaking opponents by wearing tuxe- dos and having 3 Davids on the team. The game ended in a 195-105 loss to Northeast, but with a consoling word from advisor lVlrs. Lavoy and a free dinner from sponsor- friend Mr. Pollard, a stylish loss was less tragic.

Eight old members earned two-year service bars. Round Table members were not book worms or egg- headsg in fact, it was difficult to tell them from all the other students - except that they were probably busier. They were playing football or chess, editing the newspaper and the yearbook, leading the student government and various clubs, plus serving the community - all while main- taining 4.0 academically. yi' ?25j,.q Linda Alperstein Cynthia Beaston Brian Becker 623' Gene Bricker Carson Brooks Sonia Crockett Nancy Ericksen Mary Evans Bev Wilkinson admires the R given her by Cynthia Johnson.
