The Togetherness Of Seniors Money was probably a key word this year. It was an economical fact that a student simply could not survive without the American dollar bill. During one year, a student could easily spend over a thousand dollars. It was hard getting through a school day without handing over some money. Every Friday there was usually an athletic game and spirit ribbons to buy from the cheerleaders. Not only did o student find himself putting forth the dollar bill at school, but he also spent money to buy clothes that were an absolute necessi- ty. Records were big items as the trends of music changed and new groups appeared on the charts. Dances, dates, and movies were important social expenditures. If a student was lucky enough to have a car, he had to battle the power of the pump as gas prices continued to be high. A common denominator among all student spending was food. And while cafeteria lunches weren ' t popular, they beat starvation. Most universally accepted were the fast food chains. A check at any one of them at almost any time would reveal at least one E.D.H.S. student willingly handing over his cash. John Tobin threatens Jeff Raskin within an inch of his life.

After school hours separated the struc- tured school day from busy evenings and had a certain personality all their own. Stu- dents who stayed at school for publications or club work appreciated the calm that de- scended after the chaos of full classes, bells, and announcements. Students who went to jobs appreciated the change from brain work to physical work. The majority of students, however, went home after the final bell. The first order of business was usually eating. Some gave in to the weariness caused by a school day and crashed on the nearest couch. Probably the most productive use of these hours was get- ting a start on the next days homework while the house was quiet. Brooks Blletz reads another love note.

• ' Seniors Pass On Their Pride Freshman have never been able to re- lax around the other classes of E.D. That was until the student council decided to change things. Last year a student sug- gested a Big-Little Brother and Sister type of program. This , said Julie Stow, is a good way for freshman to meet more people. We are hoping it ' ll make things friendlier. The idea is to have Seniors help the Freshman around campus and to simply enable the Freshman students to meet more people-especially the Sen- ior class because the Freshman rarely have classes with Seniors, and they don ' t always have the opportunity to meet them. Hopefully, this will start a new tradi- tion within the El Dorado campus. Discipline seems the only way in which he ' ll ever learn , states J«f( Raskin of his little brother Gng Clark. Just like Big Brother , states Brent Fisher while Tom Hummer shows the lil eness of their hair. f J-cc 4 j ou( - 3 o t fo-fy th 1 S i ' -ov ' J y CiUy - L l Con ' = ' } - ' -rx ' .
