Do you have a better idea? Talking to the kids about the Clean-up Campaign, most were found to be rather doubtful as to it ' s success — most were upset at the idea of getting out of school early just because they did something they should have been doing anyway I don ' t think you should have to bribe people into cleaning up the campus But I think that ' s the only way you ' re gonna get them to do anything they ' re gonna do something more if they get something out of it. I ' m not going to work my buns off all week long just to get out of school early. It isn ' t worth it for me I don ' t have a babe to come home to I don ' t think people even realize they ' re doing it, I know I never thought much about it until it was brought to my attention. It ' s not going to work— the red flag is up all the time and that means we ' re not doing our job. Most people don ' t care, they ' d rather go to school the extra forty minutes than pick up paper. I think most people don ' t want to bother they don ' t think of what the school would look like if the janitors didn ' t come every night and clean up they expect someone else to pick it up for them. We were brought up like it didn ' t matter people are gonna have to wake up. Bribing people may be a bad way of doing it — but if it ' s gonna work, do you have a better idea?

Homecoming this year found the juniors with a variety of feelings; some were contentedly noncom- mittal, some were strongly opinionated and of course there were a few who just didn ' t care one way or another. I don ' t really care, to be truthful . sure I want to win Homecoming, but when it gets to the arguing that ' s when I begin to hate it. I think it ' s really bad when one class is sup- posedly better than another if you have a brother or sister in that class it ' s unbearable to ive at home. Decorating cars is good, but I don ' t think we should have to judge them. That ' s the only place ever get together with anyone from school our class should have somewhere else we can get to- gether ... like a ... a class retreat! Maybe we should just have a spirit week— but not competition . Homecoming doesn ' t always have to be competition — just a week of fun. I mean who has fun around here? Bob and Helen have fun, no one else does. I think what brings about spirit is the compe- tition we just don ' t have any spirit because we aren ' t winning . it ' s always ' be number one ' — but who remembers number two? When it gets to be hate between the classes that ' s when the fun and meaning goes out . . it ' s only one week out of the year ... These feelings and others put together, spelled a well-deserved second place victory over the Frosh and Sophomores for the class of ' 73. Known around campus as the guy with the beard who wears purple andvchartreuse on the same day, Pastor Bill Schmeling teaches gobs and gobs of religion classes. He good-na turedly refers to himself as Dickie Meyer ' s un- derstudy for Religion Department chairman. He feels all classes would be more effective iMhere were ' not so many kids in a class and not so many classes per teacher. He thinks he could contribute more to a student ' s per- spective of his own creativity by teaching less and learning more. Chateau Lonueville-Pauitlec Medoc-1964, i brings out Pastor Schmeliiiig ' s more creative moments. Asked if Christians should still cele- brate Creation,- he replied. I doubt, if we have any choice. It ' s in us; we ' re in it. Life hurries on! When asked to redefine create in me , he answered without hesitation, make it happen Lord! Descending from 3 long Line of hardy pea- sant stock he finds sprucing up liis backyard most rewarding . I can experience the marvelous interdependence of the biospheie irsthand. As a sponsor of the class o he best ever and predicted te says. There ' re good head: 73. feels it ' s a fantastic year, at the helm and vity and -pazazz t» see ' bang-up finish

Ski Club :ead track coach, and head J V. myself ng to classical music, or when I ' m with other people who are Creative like footbaM players who think well, or sociology students who probe into the nature of social life. I fee! most at ease. To Mr. GoeKer the words create in me nave a personal meaning- lnspire — pro- voke me to challenge myself, to realize my potential, but aiso to recognize my weak- nesses — so that I may better realize the need for my Savior and His blessings. He says creativity is a social need for man and for the betterment of others. In the classroom, he tries to encourage his students to probe int wbqpKyjBe and what ' h jiifn lilrr infl mT Reives honestly ideals, them— bJ When a H his worshij replied. Yes, definitely, since God is cen- tral to all creation— whether we realize or not He feels that God ' s Spirit is alive in people and helping them to inspire and provoke others to creativity. Life is hap- pier and more meaningful when this hap- pens.

A flag in the back of the quad informed the school if we were doing our job in keep- ing the campus spotless by mysteriously turning green or red. 2. For a few days after the Cleanup assembly the campaign was the subject of many conversations. 3. During the campaign, the trash cans never had it so good. 4. Eating is definitely more appetizing when there ' s no trash at your feet. 5. Elena Montes and Kim McCowan enjoy a clean quad during Homecoming week. Juniors 159
