Students hold part-time jobs workers like people, money I needed a job to stay out of trouble and my mother made me were two common reasons for student employment this past year. Working played a major role in 41.996 of the students' lives in 1973-74. This was the figure obtained in a Tiger Cub arti- cle by reporter Tom Beck. Some jobs held were: cashiers, nurses aides, carry out boys, sales clerks, dis- hwashers, waitresses and gas station attendants. Reasons for working were: to provide for further education, to help provide for their families, for extra spending money and to buy a car. ug., Sheri' Persinger said, I needed the money and something to do with my ex- tra time, so I got a job. Reasons for not working included time, parents, age, schoolwork, transportation and the availability of jobs in Hastings. Teachers interviewed agreed that employment did not interfere with most students' school work, but it did in- terfere with outside activities that all students should participate in and enjoy. Working is a step away from high school and a step toward the adult world, stated Susan Gerritsen. TOP: 'Mm Mm Good That's what Sue Rose thinks about the pies sold at Walgreens.

This quote from the Tale of Two Cities tells it all about that year. It was a year of tragic corruption in our government. The Vice-President Spiro T. Agnew, and many other high governmental officials were forced to resign because of wrong doings. As high school students, we did a. lot of driving, even though gas in some cases was up to fifty cents a gallon. It was a time when the slogan That and a dime will buy you a cup of coffee, almost went out of ex- istence. In spite of all the hardships, we are still inclined to look back on high school and say Those were the good ole days. High school was when we had not a. care in the world. When we were free as birds to do what ever we so pleased. We graduated, and were thrown out into the world. Most of us began to flap our wings and fly, not into the sky but into our father's businesses, college, or a job derived out of our high school training. Life is nothing without memories of friends, good times, and the road blocks we have hurdled to get to where we are today.
