Bargains are getting hard to find these days, and getting something for nothing is nearly impossible, or so it seems. The Music Depart- ment, however, offered free guitar lessons as an extra-curricular ac- tivity for the first time. About thirty eager students and one teacher, Mrs. Linda Heuser, joined the Tuesday evening class which was taught by Mr. Bruce Bernstein, but a month and a half later attendance had dropped to seven. According to Mr. Bernstein, most students who dropped found that they weren't getting some- thing for nothing. Hard work and practice were the price. It wasn’t long before the easy chords were learned and as Mr. Bernstein said, “Some people couldn’t keep up with the advanced chords, and they didn’t want to practice at home.” The result—a drop in attendance. What’s the difference between playing the guitar and playing soc- cer? For one thing, you don’t get dirty playing the guitar. You do get dirty when you play soccer in the mud or snow or whatever happens to be on the ground at the time. The group of soccer enthusiasts, consisting mainly of seventh and eighth graders, could be found playing soccer before school and at lunch every day, regardless of the weather. The size of the group varied, but there were new people every day. Girls played too. Since the soccer “club’’ wasn’t an organization or part of the intramural program, the group had trouble finding a good field to play in where they could hear the bell. The group hopes to get soccer into the intra- mural program in the future. Surf's up (Above) Johnny Kite glides down the parking lot while practicing his skateboarding.

“What? Out of hot chocolate again?” This was a familiar lament during football season. This year’s excep- tionally foul winter proved the Cava- liers were not just fair weather fans. They came in rain, mud, sleet or snow and always seemed to miracu- lously outnumber the opposing team’s onlookers—home or away. Hard-core Cavaliers went as far into the sticks as Fluvanna to spend two hours sitting in the rain watching the Cavaliers out swim the Flucos 12-0. At season’s end, they shelled out $7.00 for bus fair and tickets, donned long. johns, and bused up to Alber- marle to cheer the team in the snow and sub-freezing temperatures. When asked the reason why, Mark Winckler said, “We all like football, but we especially like to show others our school spirit.” The fact the Cava- liers were undefeated and wanted to remain that way helped too!
