- i . Before the dust settled Wednesday, August 24, 7:30 A.M. -1,582 stu- dents awoke to the inevitable realization that the summer days of leisure were really over. The first days' usual confusion was intensified by the mass construction project in full swing, a result of a bond issue passed in 1976. Finding a parking place was one thing, but after weaving in and out of ladders, boards, and stray workmen, finding where your classes were meet- ing that day became a real achievement. We were given a warm reception by a wildly-fluctuating air- conditioning system which cooled off some sec- tions ofthe building to semi-Arctic conditions while other rooms sweltered in 90-degree temperatures. Daring Young Men: Without a flying lrapeze Barry Ward and Russ Walker dive off the cliffs at the rock quarries. Blast OH: Scooter Walters makes the dust fly with his motor scooter Say Cheese: Debbie Wingert, with every hair in place, grins for both pho- tographers during her underclassman shot. Hand-OH: Laurie Dunlap passes the baton to anchor runner Terry Walker in a practice session on the new track at Park A. Introduction 0 5

:Ill ix. ,If YT? 4 Come Blow Your Horn: Band director Bob Jordan leads his musicians in early morning practice on the field. Sound Barrier: Workmen and thundering jack hammers become familiar sights and sounds around the school, Repitan, Por Favor: Mrs. Lorna Griffin uses flashcards to aid with vocabulary drills in first level Spanish. T, Shift, Space: Coordination and concentration enable Lisa Bailey and Jack Denman to avoid errors during timing tests. Opposite Page: Skateboard Fanatic: Decked in gloves, pads and crash-hel- met, Karl Christian practices his tricks on a steep incline at a skateboard park. Deafening power drills set the beat for the other drills around the school. ln August two-a-days sweating football players performed the same drills over and over again to prepare for a winning sea- son. Foreign language classes took advantage of momentary silence to polish up their verbs while band members, decked in grubbies and curlers, took their positions on the field to march through early-morning drills. Typing instructors drilled stu- dents on mastery of the keyboard, drama class members rehearsed and memorized scenes, and friends quizzed each other for that test coming up. introduction 0 7
