A DATE WITH MS. PAC-MAN. Kaihy Rankin and Jim Drew enjoy competing at video games. Rankin always carries quarters because she knows Drew nev- er has any. — L Beeman GUYS. GUYS, and more guys covered the inside of Missy Robinson and Laura Trichel’s locker. The two girls spent an entire Sunday afternoon cutting photos of hunks” from the JC Penny Christmas catalog. AFTER BEING CROWNED Fire Queen at the Flinstone soccer game. Deborah Skidmore flashes a smile for Chief Alan Snyder. Members of the junior class chose the queen from nine nominees. — L Betrman Dutch treat was no longer past tense. With the rise of E.R.A. and the de- cline of the economy, the 1982 ladies were often left footing the bills. It was not unnatural to see the girl paying the $6.00 to see a movie or to treat her date to pizza and cokes; most couples went half and half. Shawn Barmoy and Deborah Skid- more compromised; he paid for the movie, and she paid at McDonalds afterwards. Girls were more aggressive than ever before; they weren't afraid to make the first move with a phone call. Some girls stuck by their principles. Lisa Mackay only called a boy one time and then it was an emergency. Couples couldn't afford the high rate of going out every weekend, so Robin Jenkins had Greg Leake to her house to watch television on Satur- day night. Everyone was aware of the money squeeze. Girls were ei- ther sympathetic or aggres- sive toward their men, and some guys enjoyed putting the shoe on the other foot. DATING

— L B« man CONFIDENT OF HIS CHOICE. Gary Hal! leaves the voting booth. All under- classmen voted in the Student Coun- cil's elections during history classes. promises promises Flourescent orange and yellow campaign posters clung to the walls, and red, blue, and green Vote for buttons covered the bodies of the students. The annual elec- tions created politicians out of the nominees running for class and Student Council offices. Some candidates used tricky phrases to catch the at- tention of possible voters, while others counted on their friends to carry them into of- fice. Peggy Arnold, candidate for Council Secretary, lost her campaign posters and was forced to advertise by word of mouth. Candidates for Student Council President and Vice President, John Martirano and Tim Eichhorn, stood on the platform to organize a freshman prom and to in- crease the number of junior high dances. Their opponents, Kerry Plummer and Wendy Mona- han, wanted to involve the ju- nior high more and wanted to bring in outside speakers. Some students looked at the issues and considered them before deciding for whom to vote. Others used the assem- bly as a time to make plans for Friday night or to catch up on sleep. The next day the voting ma- chines were set up in both the senior and junior high lobbies. Seventh graders became ec- static at the idea of operating one of the booths. The seniors just wanted to get out of class. During history class stu- dents exercised their right to vote. JefT Raley and Jim Phil- lips allowed everyone to pass them so they wouldn't have to hurry back to Mr. Harry Countryman’s class. Embarrassment struck Bri- an Slanger and Ginny Dormer because they forgot how to shut the curtains and tried to pull them shut. In the senior high the elec- tions didn’t raise much enthu- siasm. Some voters didn't even know who was running. Oth- ers had no desire to vote at all. But over in the new wing, enthusiasm was high, and ev- erybody was anxious, espe- cially the seventh graders who voted for the first time. During lunch, music blared and the Judicial Board worked the polls, munching on donuts and Pepsi. At 3:05 candidates rushed home to listen to WFRB for the results. Some cried, and some cheered, and the stu- dents knew what it was like to be in an election. — L Btfvman STUDENT COUNCIL — Front Row: Sherri Arnold. Michele Cotton. Linda Wilson.
