Buzzzzzzz! The students arise from their desks for yet another fire-alarm. But wait, this isn ' t a drill. The students file out of the EHS doors and wait for the sound of the bell returning them to their everlasting classes. All the students notice a faint siren in the distance. Alas, the fire de- partment is here and the students and faculty feel a great sense of relief. Finally, the firemen find the cause of all the chaos. It seems the whole ordeal was caused by POPCORN! Selling an after school snack to tired energyless stu- dents, has proved to be a big success for the cheerleaders, it seems the popcorn industry is about to overwhelm Orville Redenbocker.

Reversed Encogement by Chad Hindenlong. • it ' It, ,n REACHING We were two people looking for perfection, Giving advice to one another about how to find it Two people reaching for the sky Keep falling farther and farther away. Now, we ' ve stopped reaching up And have started reaching out Reaching out to one another Trying to forget the sky. You liked her, and I liked him Figuring out ways to reach the sky . . . together not alone But we kept shrinking until we finally figured out why. Neither perfection nor normal were we The same kind of people, reaching for the same kinds of things Things we could never have. Dreams we were hoping would come true. Reaching for things we wished we had When really neither of us wanted them that bad Seeking help . . . finding each other Not believing it could be true. Denying our feelings Denying our love Now, we want to reach up But can ' t help reaching out. Reaching out to one another. But still denying it all Our dreams have died And new ones have replaced the old. We dream of each other What it would be like to be together Two lonely hearts scared and searching Scared of being together, and searching for the reason why. Trying to deny it all Knowing what we ' re doing is wrong We were meant to be together Together to share our love. Shelby Greene, freshman Creative Arts 27

You can wait, and wait, and wait, and wait but if no one comes to pick up the provisions some people can get very mad. So in order to keep peace, WILL SOMEONE PICK UP THE POPCORN!!! Here she comes to save the day! Wendy Stein is on the way!
