Last Saturday, I opened the NCAA chess tourney in JRU, which proved later not only to be still in the league, in senior caging; it even beat the fancied San Beda (where I was chess champ in 1963) last Tuesday. I had thought it was out of the league in the hard court, where I recall though that it was second only to San Beda’s Indian Yell in cheerleading.

How well I remember its cheerleaders in their halftime routine, dancing to Perry Como’s lilting “Till the end of time, long as stars are in the blue, long as there’s a spring, a bird to sing I’ll go on loving you.” Paul Supan, your JRU had reason to rejoice last Tuesday.
