| Transcript | Complete with Revolutionary costumes, Larry Perez and George Nordgren recreate Washington's crossing of the Delaware River in a Senior Week stunt. Sig Eps Roger Mathews and Rick Cooper fall victim to revolutionary harassment as they take their turn in the Spirit of '67's stockade, right. Pool Becomes Delaware; Arbor, a Discotheque;!Holy Bat-mania! ■*' da.f 1 Steve Alwais barters with Larry Satcher for his pretty injun squaw, Diane Lockhart in a Senior Week skit, left. DG's and SAE's stage an Arbor "holler-in," above. For a week prior to Homecoming, the campus is alive with "happenings." A special organized confusion characterizes Senior Week, when organizations contrive publicity stunts to promote senior football players. Students were eye witnesses to history, watching George "Washington" Nordgren paddle his canoe across UH's own Delaware River, the reflection pool. While George was making history, teammate Dick Woodall was drawing a crowd of mini-skirted coeds in the Arbor with his fancy boogaloo. Meanwhile, a new sandwich—Brez- inabugers—were being hurled across the Arbor by supporters of Greg Bre- zina and Jim Pat Berger, just as the "Dynamic Duo," Bill Pickens and Rich Stotter, descended via the bat-rope into the courtyard—holy bat-mania! Delta Sigma Phi and Alpha Chi Omega, Senior Week winners, plugged Tom Paciorek and Warren McVea with the slogan, "Tom and Mac Invent." Why along with inventing football, they invented several Bulldog exterminators—the robot, guillotine and meat grinder. Mouseketeer Madelyn Randall yells for Ken Hebert and Rene Alaniz, above. Below, Paula Watson, Warren McVea and Jeanne Goka join the Senior Week show. 49 |
