Actor Mike Russeo stepped up to the de facto Life Science Quad plate. John Wooley wound up and delivered his most furious offering. As the meatball neared Russeo he swung and landed the shot on the roof of Jackson. . .or so the storygoes. For nine years the annual Actor/Techie Softball Game has been a ver- nal ritual. Students and faculty involved in theatrical productions have been exagerating stories like the one above ever since. Roger Shoemaker, Professor of Theatre and Dance, began the contest in his first spring at Trinity; Shoemaker has been the starting pitcher for the performer side ever since. In spite of hits like those of Russeo, AAC Director Wooley has always held the mound for the technical squad. The rivalry is a serious matter, but the contest is hardly a high pressure situation. One participant recalls the year she began the afternoon play- ing left field and gradually moved deeper and deeper. By mid-game she found herself playing "Corner Tap" instead. The beer (and equally at- tractive and available non-alcholic beverages) are not only consumed, but thrown about as part of the days excitement.

Because of health problems, Mr. M. has begun his retirement early. He's doing all right after successful surgery, but still has a way to go. When you're feeling better, Frank, we'll send you off into retirement the right way. It's just too bad I couldn't write my article the original way.
