The finished product! Staffer Dawn Lavck reads a hot off the press Mariner, Staffers feel great satisfaction in seeing themselves in print. News of the day The Mariner tells all When is the paper coming out? was a common question around Har- bor. lt did come out now and then, it seemed, although the staff tried to keep up a monthly schedule. Despite delays in getting the paper out, sales of The Mariner improved this year. For the first time in quite a few years the paper has been sent to a printer instead of the AV center. Edi- tor Sean McGinnis feels this makes the paper more eyecatching and profes- sional looking.

This was a change from past years when the staff was almost all seniors and juniors. Freshman, Melanie Forinash, had this to say about being on staff, lt was ok. lt wasn't as hard as I thought it would be.

We started off the year with the usual exuberance and had several pep rallies with the band playing, the Drill Team and Majorettes dancing, and the Cheerleaders cheering. Then in Octo- ber we had the lst Spirit Week ever. Each day brought something new and unusual. There was anything from a simple hat or pair of sunglasses to clowns, witches and even Ronald Reagan.

Spirit is also par- SOX Student Life Ride 'em cowboyl Here Mr. DeLeone takes a quick, yet bumpy ride during the donkey basket- ball game. 0 O O O O O rit ticipation in school activities and clubs. For instance, 30 people tried out for Academic Challenge team when they knew only 3 would actually com- pete. The turnout for clubs and tryouts for the plays has been exceptional. Not only do the students participate but also the teachers. During the fall students and faculty got involved with the donkey basketball game. It turned ,out to be a great success with juniors reigning overall. As Senior Suzanne Arnold says, l've never seen so much spirit in Harbor before and I really hope that it will continue to grow in the years to comel
