Changes Develop in the Pattern of 0ur School Lives Even though there were changes in the atmos- phere of our school lives, each of us woke in the morning to the regular grind of the school day. Coming to school from different directions, we started our day with the eight-thirty bell. Using only one other bell at the end of the day, we went to classes on our own time. Crowded halls were not so frequent as classes let out at different times. False predictions caused students to worry as they watched the clocks on the foretold Friday at two o'clock. Attendance perceptively dropped on that day because of superstitious feelings of parents and students. At two o'clock sighs of re- lief were heard as the premonitions of Delta blowing up were only rumors. Competition yells between classes faded away, but spirit within the student body grew. Rea- lizing that spirit as a whole was more important than class superiority, the team benehted from the combined classes' support. I2-student life Sophomores Sandy Martin, Connie Walters and Barb Norrick glance through their newly acquired Deltonians. The books came out in the fall at the 'Sign In Dance.' Trying to communicate with a foreign student is not easy as some girls found out on International Day. W. Hart gives W. Reeves and A. Clevenger a hand in hang- ing a sign, boosting the basketball team in the tourney.
