Patty has met her challenge, excel- ling in both volleyball and basketball. I get a fulfilling feeling when I go out for athletics, she sid. What qualities make an athlete great? In Patty's eyes, Athletes have special qualities. They should always be looking for ways to excel and improve themselves. They should always be thinking of their goals and how they can reach them. There's a saying in sports that Win- ners never quit, and quitters never winf, Patty goes by that motto. When there was no basketball team for girls in Junior High, Patty joined the boys team, I was teased quite a bit, but quitting never entered my mind. It didn't make too many points with the guys, admits Patty, Of course I can't really blame them, I can under- stand why they feel that way. An athlete is a form of an enter- tainer, she explained, You can do your own thing when you're out there. You can be a ham, which I have to admit I am, or you can just play the game. But being a ham is a lot more fun and more entertaining. Although Patty plays both volleyball and basketball, basketball is her favor- ite. As far back as when she was four years old, Patty remembers shooting baskets. I've played it ever since I can remember, she said. Basketball is one of the most excit- ing and skillfully hardest games you can play, said Patty. Patty hopes to have a career in sports, hopefully as a college coach or physical ed. teacher. I'm also hoping that someday there will be a career for women in professional sports, she said. Patty devoted most of her time to sports and just relaxing. She summed up her ideas saying, Sports keep me going and give me something to look forward to. - Sue Vaughn Take 33 Sophomore closeups

Paula Hittle, sophomore, has been involved with The Skies The Limitu since the beginning of the year in inde- pendant art study. She was selected by one of her teach- ers, who submitted her name to the advisor of TSTL, a gifted student pro- gram. She then took an oral test and was admitted to TSTL. Meetings for TSTL gather together every Wednesday in the Media Center and are optional for members to attend.

'The Skies The Limit student adds, subtraets, dlvldes, multiplies The Skies The Limit student Philip Rowland, a sophomore, has been involved with TSTL since his freshman year. Philip commented that he was screened in the eighth grade in order to be involved with TSTL. He is now doing independent study math. Contrary to what most people think about TSTL doesn't seem to bother him because he feels this program is worthwhile and plans to be involved with TSTL in the coming years. Upon graduation, Philip plans to go in the Armed Forces or the college of his choice, Northern Arizona Univer- sity. After his education is completed, he feels that his independent math study during his high school years will work its way into a teaching career.
