Worship was an intergenerational Panther Profile By Bill Kline, It's that time of year again: Thanksgiving, and in the lives of many teenage boys minds it meant only one thing: Turkeybowl IV. It took place on Monday where it takes place every year, in Man and Luke Sims' backyard. This year's game could not be matched by any other, the pre -game hype was stupendous. The fans were pumped, the media buzzing about the possible controversy amongst'thle players because shirts were not ordered. But the players of Turkeybowl IV only had one thing on their minds: WIN! The air was filled with electricity. The stage was set, and Turkeybowl IV was'underway. The game ways a defensive, battle at first, both teams coming up with bone c+fimt:hItig hits the' biggest when a Glavin sent Rob Morrissey into la a;iaea: •••11,11 r !'r When the battle was over and 1 was said anodyne, it end11 tip about 106-84 for the bad guys. Everyone's muscles are sore today, thanks to the most fierce player in the game, Tim Parker. The crowd is not quiet, and all the media's questions answered, and all we have to do now, is wait until next Thanksgiving Monday.

Work places where employees tra- ditionally dress casually might opt for a specific theme for October 18, such as "read day" or "country day".
