In the past, transportation had been a problem for students until the magic age of sixteen signaled the end of an embarrassing era of being driven around by moms. dads, brothers, sisters. or any other agreeable and gullible person. Once a student obtained a license, new problems arose: begging for the car. buying gas. and avoiding accidents and tickets. The student grapevine provided a warning system that informed others of where the officers of the law lurked. Cruising then became the favorite activity. But this year, as gas prices skyrocketed and wallets emptied, students found that other methods of transportation besides a gas-guzzling family car were needed. Mopeds. at first merely for fun. became a financially sound idea. Economy cars, motorcycles, buses. roller skates, bicycles, and even skateboards provided the necessary mobility. School buses suddenly filled: partygoers reached their destination on bikes: and many people discovered the benefits of being a pedestrian, not the least of which was an opportunity to talk to a friend. Walking, car pools, and biking helped to turn the gas shortage into a chance for comradeship that was new to Edina-East. Students found that hoofing It with a friend could easily replace driving alone. Though we all mourned the passing of the cheap gas era, our new directions of transportation moved us along unique and remarkable paths. WHEELS 25
