Attention: cafeterias can damage your health There are many things for a freshman to watch out for in the Andover cafeteria. Let ' s face it, the BVI is an experience ail its own. Before choosing a seat, a freshman should check above him for pickles, on the seat for possible spilled Coke, and to the side for smeared mustard on the walls. Next he must decide if the burritos are really as gross as they look, and if a burger would be any better. Are the fries good today? If he eats the onion rings, will he blow his 6th hour class away with his breath? Also, is it cool to put cream cheese on a bagel? By the time he has decided what to get, the line has become as long as the line at Bloomingdale ' s on the day after Christmas. After he finally arrived back at his table, he discovers that it has been overrun by Seniors whose mischievous smiles suggest that a food fight is imminent. Maybe he should have spent his lunch hour in the library. Lisa Bass Revolution? No, this was not a commimist organization designed to overthrow democracy in a Bolshevik revolution. Although they did plant spies in the French and Spanish clubs, their main goal was to learn about Russian culture, aside from political views. After naming a Czar and choosing Russian names, they enhanced their vocabulary with such Russian words as Da and their palate with a Russian dinner. Overall the comrades enjoyed an interesting cultural experience. First Row: J. Braun. Second Row: K. Droboi, N. Ballard, T. Clarke. Third Row: D. Paulioski, C. Addison. J. Freedland. Fourth Row: M.

0-14-0 20-6-8 What do these numbers have in common? No, they are not the measurements of weird-looking females. They are the keys to a student ' s locker, his home away from home. A locker is more than just a place to leave one ' s books. It is a statement of a student ' s identity. Lockers can be dressed up with mirrors, pictures, and pretty posters, or dressed down with last week ' s egg salad and last year ' s gym socks. They are dressing rooms to primp and preen, or storage areas to stash little unwanted freshmen. Locker shelves covered in color-coordinated contact paper, magnetic memo pads, and books lined up in order of decreasing size are the signs of a neat freak. On the other hand, those less careful with the school ' s precious property tend to throw their books in their lockers until opening them becomes a health hazard. Students even show their quirks through the way they remove their locks. Athletes tend to throw their locks heavily into the top shelf while the dreamers leave them on the handles. The more daring types don ' t bother with a lock at all. Even with their ability to greatly enhance the smell of a tuna fish sandwich in the course of the year, lockers provide a cornerstone of high school life. Lisa Bass Do you know your soc. security number? There are no known isotopes of the element with the atomic number of A. 20 B. 38 C. 56 D. 88 Does this question look familiar?
