02161, , ,AQJIUQJ Cl, W J0AAfVV'V1!s why was People magazine chosen as the theme for the 1979 Aqua Clara? The buildings are not going to win any architectural awards, but the football field with its new turf is the best playing surface in Pinellas county. Our library is running out of room and biology labs consist of staring at ten year old slides of a gnat's brain. Our football team is tied for first when the quarterback breaks his thumb, but the team shall prevail. Final exams coincide with a yearbook deadline and the candle burns down from both ends. In featuring the down-to-the-grass- roots people, the Aqua Clara becomes a more personalized possession . . . by putting a name and a story with a familiar face of a person whose name you could never remember, a reference book is created. Don't worry all you Jocks, the sports editor could never leave you out. Miss Cheerleader, the camera hasn't turned away from your pretty tricks. lt isjust learning to focus in on the Freaks, and Brains, and those ankle-biting underclassmen. On the surface our school may appear dull or even ordinary but the proletariat, the people of CHS, is our unique and outstanding characteristic.E1 KIT GRIFFITH 411le Bay area is lull ot hot air during the Bay-to-Bay Balloon Exhibition.
