Weekends Were Made For . . s the bell rang loudly at 2:50 on Friday afternoon, the weekend began. For most, the weekend was a time to take a breather from school’s studies, relax with friends and family, and pursue individual pastimes. Favorite activities were as varied as a potpouri of tastes. However, weekends weren't always free time and bliss. Aspiring athletes often had Saturday morning practices to look forward to. usually with some regret. Members of the part-time working crowd found it profitable, though sometimes tiring, to rack up weekend hours at jobs. One couldn't live in Edina for very long without noticing the beautiful parks and wooded areas that lay so close by. Strolling around Lake Harriet. ice skating at Cornelia, and playing touch football with friends were just a few ways to spend weekend leisure time. 1) Anita Wetherall discovers that tailing down is one of the breaks of playing touch football 2) Pitching m with autumn chores. Steve Domke spends a Saturday afternoon raking leaves. 1 o IN Tods In Recent Movies Rocky Star Wars Smokey and the Bandit The Spy Who Loved Me Oh God! The Last Minute The weekend rolled around quickly. In the back of our minds we knew that the Comp, term paper was due Monday, no exceptions. Saturday was spent at the Edina Library in a last minute flourish of rough drafts and o-rmgs. The six weeks alloted for this task meant nothing by the time Sunday was upon us. Ten o'clock soon arrived as we coached Mom. who had been so deviously conned into typing the whole works. Oh. but next weekend would be so free! 28 WEEKENDS
