We finally managed to hold up under the strain of getting up before noon, missing our soap operas, losing our tans, and going to bed before one in the morning. Still, as we settled into the swing of things, we realized that it was just another way of life. We got used to it. and it was great see- ing all our friends again.

WALKING OVER THE bridge into Ihe old Fort Wayne transports one into another time. The fort was built in 1976 as part of the bicen- tennial celebration. Fort Wayne . . . Alive! Even though we didn ' t admit it, Fort Wayne held many things for us to do. When we felt like dressing up for a sophisticated evening, there was always a fantastic play to see at the Civic — complete with cast members from Elmhurst! Walks in the park, a day at Franke, or getting everyone together to play foot- ball would meet our needs perfectly COLUMBIA STREET ON the Landing was one of the principal business streets in Fort Wayne for nearly a century. when we wanted a simpler time. Looking for entertainment took us everywhere. The search led us to the malls, theatres, parties, concerts, Pizza Hut, Komet hockey games, Jimmie ' s, downtown, and our own EHS sport events. We all knew that it was our fault if we were ever bored. Fort Wayne is alive and living! We all knew it — but we ' d never admit it! 1 TAKING A SEAT in Freimann Square can give one a view of the fountain, the Allen County Courthouse, and the Fort Wayne National Bank building. 1 4 Student Life
