Lunch PCIICVCS hunger pangs, Fourth hour always seemed to be the longest hour. Our stomachs growled as we waited for the mot sacred class of the day - lunch. Lunch was a time for rest. a time to indulge in our favorite foods. and a time to visit with friends. i For those more fortunate seniors. lunch was the time to return home. Their cars rushed out of the parking lot along with those clever enough tojoin them. The cafeteria filled with hungry animals as students turned in tokens for meals. Despite constant complaints about cafete- ria food. students managed to gorge them- selves with food. On campus. small groups sat on the lawn picnicking orjust engaging in alittle talk. Halls were filled with couples holding hands and kissing in corners. Clubs met during lunch and members begrudgingly gave up their lunch to attend. Pop machines filled with quarters as students seeked to quench their thirst. Ah lunch. a time to relax. a time to visit. and a time of freedom. f Sue Vaughn ll A LA CARTE.Prospector. and hot lunch. were the three choices offered students. 23 HWINNING. GETTING.

At 2:45 the final bell sounded the end of another day, save for some. the beginning of activities came for others. Students filed out of class to their lockers. Locker doors slammed signal- ing independence hour. The campus cleared out quickly as students rushed out to their cars. their bus, their route home. Cars sped out of the parking lot and buses pulled away. leaving a quiet hush over the school. The day was not over for those remaining behind. Serving their sen- tences for tardies, absences, and other misdemeanors, students reported to detention equipped with something to do they sat in the detention room pay- ing their debt for breaking the rules. Athletics were in full force after school. Whether it be football, basket- ball, wrestling, cheerleading, or any number of sports, our faithful athletes were always there. Teachers always seemed to be around helping students, giving makeup tests, or talking with other teachers. Journalism students stayed after struggling to meet their deadlines. Typewriters tapped, pencils scribbled. and last minute interviews were made. Drama class was an after school haven for actors and actresses. Ham- ming it up, they rehearsed their lines, and shaped their productions to perfec- tion. Soon the school clears and all its patrons go home. Darkness falls over the school. and the empty building sil- louetted in the setting sun. Il BONNA CUMMINGS. JUNIOR, helps in the play The Odd Couple.
