QUIET AT LAST Taking advantage of on empty class room. Chris Hayward seem- ingly concentrates on some home- work that is due the next hour. Judging from his smug look, though he is writing anything but home- work. English Midterm: (mid-tern) Half way through the torture of the term; time when the countdown begins for va- cations. It occasionally means that students have to take a lest over the past material. The best excuse I've given a teacher for not coming to class is that I didn't know we had school today, because I thougth it was a holi- day. -James Johnston, senior. UP FRONT Trudy Badgett wasn't an ac- celarated English student, but she was one who was hard working. She has re- cieved praise and good grades for her work. I've never enjoyed English until I had Mrs. Fagan as a teacher. She helped me learn. DAYDREAMER With three more minutes left in the hour. Llesel Carland anxiously waits for the be» to ring so she can eat lunch with her friends. Naptime: (nap-time) Time when students catch up on needed sleep, be- cause of the previous night’s rendezvous. An- other reason why students fall asleep is because they forgot to take their NoDoz that morning. In Mr. Schlemmer’s class you don’t get to have naptime.

 As 1 made my way into the Social Studies Department, many of my senses were awakened. Walking deeper into this area I turned down into a smaller hallway and noticed Mr. Schedler’s class listening to a lecture. Hear- ing the typewriter stirred my curiosity. I looked behind me to see Mrs. Severance in the office typing up dittos. A JI'S LECTURE TIME, Mr. Schedler gets the attention of his fourth hour class whte getting his final point across about the times of Julius Ceosar. quick sharp whistle caught my attention as I proceeded down the hallway to spy on Mr. Schlimmer getting con- trol of his fourth hour class. Turning the corner, I heard a discussion in Mr. Howell’s so- ciology class. The Social Studies Depart- ment was full of such situa- tions. The combination of ieachers and students was what made this department run smoothly and successful- ly, said Ms. Me Clain. Students found exper- ience was the best teacher, when they did such things as the police ride-along. “The police ride-along in Ameri- can government was an ex- cellent way to learn about the judicial system, com- mented Amie Grau. In Free Enterprise, students learned the reality of the economic system. In this class you realize what pro- ducts are really worth, said Lance Smaw. Social Studies was filled with the knowledge of past and present. With the teachers help and a little ambition we make the fu- ture. Design by Kerri Carmody. Photography by Jason Fie- gel.
