We have teams to be proud of, and the student body shows its pride in a desire to support each team. Students seem to have a genuine interest in and need for sports in school. For this reason I think they are important and have appropriate emphasis. lf student interest or need were to change, the emphasis on sports should change accordingly. We have great teams, but l would like to see a better balance between scholastics and athletics. lt's great for those involved and the rest enioy it. More sports need to be played out of school time, instead of during important school hours. This is a real possibility, especially when one considers that academic endeavors seem to get a low profile. PAT GEST Business Education gi p lt seems that in this school, sports serves to bring students together and give them a common ground. Sports is overemphasized. Too few are involved and there needs to be a better balance. Definitely not!

There doesn't seem to be an appreciable difference between the old and the new code, since Dr. Hassel claims the final dis- ciplinary action is left to the discretion of the principal. It's a good idea because it sets forth, in writing, some definite guidelines. JAN FRUM English WANDA FULLER English 2m 0 I think it still leaves it up to the individual teacher just as it was before. Could be beneficial to all. It has a lot of problems and it is misinter- preted in many areas. I don't think the classroom will change. Some sort of code is needed, it should be tried. Very confusing, it doesn't represent much of a change. It doesn't matter if you like it or not because nobody is there to enforce it. It is good to have limits in writing because now the teachers can discipline and the students know how far they can go. I don't think it is as bad as it is made out to be.

Sports are good, but they need more female participation. The school I attended had twice as many sports, but they hold the student body together and give the students with a lack of ability in a specific subject a reason, maybe, just to come to school. t at . . il. i.

For many, sports are the only thing they are able to do, and they enioy it. I don't think it's emphasized enough, since the number of trophies we have proves we have an outstanding athletic department which sould be recognized. Not sports, but I do have mixed emotions about the excess charges to the games. Overall, sports are meaningful to those at Friendly. Sometimes I feel we emphasize sports more than any other one aspect of school. For example: time spent announcing, etc. What I'd like to see is the periods changed to see the games. It's offered and everyone goes for it. Q03 S 'si' PAM HANRAHAN BOB HILL RITA HOOG Science Mathematics Physical Education ,
