of the race and quickly handed off
the green baton to Jay Downing who
was wiating on Beginner's Bay Beach.
Lee Schwartz was not far behind as
Derek finally made a landing. The
race continued quite qucikly and it
was apparent that the two teams were
in a neck and neck race when the
piggy-backers crossed the Knob Road.
The race ended in front of headquart-
ers with Larry Deutsch just a few
yards in front of Tom D'Annunzio.
Nowthe Green Team has wracked up a
large number of points in their fa-

TALENT SHOW BELONGS IN HOLLYWOOD
RONNIE RECTAL
(Continued From Page 1 Column 1)

Steve Kramer and Neil Satinsky doing
certain imitations of certain people
in camp. They first did a take-off
on "opening ceremonies" at camp.
Steve qucked like George citing new
facilities including a frog sanctuary
and a downed falg pole in the Sr. UT.
Neil then did a W.C. Satinsksy imita-
tion saying that the campe food "will
make a real man out Molly" and
that Misty Cody is a real chickadee.
W.C. also noted that "a rectal a day
keeps the Bayne away." and he said
"I like that Bayne, a real pain."
W.C. likes medium rare Juniors and
he feels Nurse Bayne requires snow-
shoes and boots when its 45 degrees
out. W.C. believes that Nurse Bayne
should have a new rule. So does
Steve. It is that if you have or
anticipate a problem you should see
the Nurse before you have it. And if
you have a temperature, don't come
near me. (nurse "Recs" that its!!")
Steve then did a Jake imitation ques-
tioning the effectiveness of Pepto Bismo.
P.V.D. came on again Molly smelled
a rat as Pete finally lost his leg to
the rattler at last. Ed Downes fol-
lowed by singing Edleveiss with Carol.
Eiser accompanying on the piano.
J-7's Joey Lewi came on next with a Soupy
Sales imitation and encored with "My
Kybo Machine." The 1812 Rock 'n Roll
Ensemble appeared next with G. Draper
on the drums, Bruce Rutter, Ed Stander
and Gary August on the guitars. It
was noted at this time that the "best
was yet to come." The Ensemble played
"I'm your captain," then a song by
the Doors, and wrapping up with "Proud
Mary." Mike Shapiro and Erik Rabe
followed with siren imitations such as
Medical Center, Pilot Knob Fire Engine,
and The Low Ambulance Siren. The
Chinga Group followed with Miss "Birdie"
Sparrow taking it all off with cheers
of "one more time!" going up. The
Eyes, Ray, Donny, Greg Sagor, and Gary
Draper rounded off the evening with
"When the Saints Go Marching In." The
crowd went wild demanding "we want
more!"!! YEAH!!. An encore was in
store with Miss Sparrow reappearing
