' If one were to pass The Most Precious Blood gymnasium on a Tuesday or Wednesday at 5:00P.M., he would hear the sounds of bouncing basketballs and shouts. If, by chance, he should stop in the gym to watch the game, he would probably be surprised to see who is actually playing. The shoruts are not coming from a men's basketball team, but from the Highacres womens' team. The team, under the direction of Coach Deidre Jago, is busily preparing itself for the 1974 basketball season. This season the team, sporting new uniforms, will consist of the following women: Sandi Gross, Mary Beth Pollock, Carole Shenosky, Rita Reck, Beth Moyle, Theresa Kranyock, Mary Tack, Debbie Hoffman, Joanne Jaycox, Rose anne Ziminsky, Randi Herschel, and Mary Angie DeLazio. The women are hoping that they break in the uniforms with a winning season. Mrs. Jago and her team are eagerly awaiting the tap off for their first game of the season, which will be held at the MPB Gym on Fourth and Seybert Streets in Hazleton, on Wednesday, January 30, at 5:30. The team's season will begin away against the Scranton Campus of Penn State. On February 11, and on the 13 of February, they will end their home games by playing against the Schuykill Campus. The hard work will finally end on February 23, when the Highacres Womens' Team travels to the Ogontz Campus to par ticipate in a tournament with the other Penn State Campuses. Hopefully, all their practice will pay off, and women will bring home a trophy. At any sports event at Highacres, the students are led in the cheering by a group of women who sit on the side lines and yell. They are our own Highacres cheerleaders. These women practice hard in by Mary Angie DeLazio order to support the members of the various teams. In a game, these women are some times the difference between a win or loss for the team. The women who make up the cheering group are the follow ing people. Captain Karen Beltz, Mary Frances Postupack, Linda Guest, Lori Hackmeister, Patti Blust, Janet Liss, Monica Sweda, Debbie Burgess, Diane Steward, Linda Faust, and Diane Zeiner. The teams and the coachers owe a great deal to these women who give up their time in order to support the teams at Highacres. Without the cheer leaders, the gymnasium would be a quieter place.

February 1 0 974- Page N i ( HOCKEY by BILL MICHAEL Vicious as they may seem to the casual observer, the freezing temperatures that invariably accompany winter at Highacres generously pro vide ideal playing conditions for a relatively new breed of campus athlete--the hockey player. This year, a group of ice hockey enthusiasts, who were both regular spectators of the professional game and avid participants in amateur and high school contests de cided to form a hockey club at Penn State Hazleton. The students received full coop eration from the City of Ha zleton Recreation Department, which provided them with an outdoor skating rink. Mr. Breckinridgei a Highacres Eng lish professor, has offered to serve as the club's advisor. Although the team is just getting underway, the players are already optimistic about the Winter Term season. They continued page ten
