School?! Switching Gears Seems Pretty Hard Amid squeals of excitement at seeing long lost friends and groans of sheer disgust, we returned to the hallowed halls of good ole EHS. It took quite a bit out of us to switch gears from waterskiing and late night festivities to econ and algebra, but we managed to survive. The teachers seemed determined to bury us in work, as always, but we made sure we didn ' t get too boggec down so as not to enjoy our selves. Can you believe how little the freshmen are ' ' Seriously, and look ho crowded the stinking halls are Man, another year! Yes, getting used to earl hours both at night and in th ' morning was easy, but the homework?!? ONE WOULD THINK that after two previous years of pre-registration, seniors Jenny Vorndran and Debbie Barrett wouldn t be so confused by their schedules But. as usual, senior guidance counselor Mr Douglass Spencer finds the miraculous solu- tions and straightens them out How about ■ EHS ' S NEW ADDITION to the guid- ance department, Mrs. Pat Gentile, performs her morning ritual — mak- ing coffee I THE CLICK OF the camera ' s shutter caught a couple of smiles from sen- iors Barb Hartman and Doug Beadie as they labored over one of the first issues of the ADVANCE Senior Lesle Sheffer concentrates most studiously on the copy at hand

Sigh! We really are a busy student body when it comes to sum- mer activities Ttiere were workstiops galore, camps coming out ot our ears, fun in the sun, hardy partying and the making of the green stuff which allows us to do all this to the max ' Student council members attended SLI (Stu- dent Leadership Institute) at Indiana University in Bloom- ington. Newspaper and year- book students spent weeks at the Ball State Journalism Workshops in Muncie. Band members sweated off those few extra pounds learning and practicing their routines in the summer heat in the parking lot, and the cheerleaders worked diligently at perfecting their chants. Enjoying the benefits of our hours spent working was our favorite summer activity though. Buying clothes, tak- ing trips, stocking up on our partying supplies and eating at McDonald ' s always seemed to take a big chunk out of our paychecks, not to mention money spent on gas getting to the beach trying to soak up some rays. Throughout the hectic sum- mer pace, there always was the ever-present thought in the back of each student ' s head. I am sure ready for school to start; I can catch up on some desperately needed sleep! When It comes to keeping busy during the summer, we at EHS aren ' t the TV watching kind. Summer — 1 1
