Everyday after school from 3-5 p.m. the Girls' Softball team practiced batting and fielding. Part of batting practice included hot peppers, two people stood 3 feet apart one threw the ball and the other bunted it baclt as quickly as possible. The rainy weather sure didn't help the team, their season record was 8 wins and l0 losses. The first game was to be in February, however, because of the rainy weather the girls didn't play until March 23 and their second game wasn't until the end of April. The team was coached by Ms. Cathy Webb and she was assisted by Mrs. Becky Kraus. Turner sent a team to Regionals, but was defeated 4-2 by Shawnee Mission Northwest. This was only the third year for Girls' Softball and each year it has improved. This is the best record yet, stated Coach Webb. The girls made about 3100.00 by selling stationary. They also held a picnic at Ms. Webb's home. lt was a good and rewarding season, although there were alot of rain-outs, said Susan Giger, junior. l feel that we worlqed together as a team this year. 3l l 6 The Technique Season Delayed by Weather li 'll 41 -Z

People on the Move Several students and teachers were on the move in 1977. Be the direction, north, south, east, or west, the distance 10 miles or 125, it made no difference, students and staff members had places to go and people to meet. ln pursuit of varied and interesting learning experiences which could help students understand ideas discussed in class, teachers took students on field trips. Spanish and French language students competed in Language Day, March 10, at Kansas State College at Pittsburg. Two school buses and the mini bus carried Mr. Dan Brown, Mr. Jim Heath, and approximately '75 students to Pittsburg, Kansas. At K.S.C.P. students competed in events such as: poetry interpretation, prose interpretation, grammar proficiency, sight reading, and reading comprehension in their respective languages. The hours of practice paid off as French students captured 20 of 36 possible medals in French events, Spanish students brought back 11 medals. Pandemonium broke out on the three 1.

Mr. lim Heath keeps a watchful eye on Spanish students on their way to Language Day at Kansas State College at Pittsburg. Robin Lang sips a Pepsi, many snacks were brought along to munch on the trip.
