Battling with the Internal Revenue Service was one of the problems working teenagers faced. One stu- dent said, lt gives you a taste of the real world and helps you grow up faster. This was one of the problems with the working world and only making minimum wage of 352.90 an hour was another. But students felt they needed a job to be independent and not rely on parents for money every time they got a Big tvlac attack . Another popular advantage of entering the working world is the new found ability to buy good clothes, or even cars. Other students just like the security of having a few bucks in the bank . Though many working teens intend to put part of their paycheck in the bank, this is often easier said than done. One student said, I try my best to put some cash in the bank, but I always find a sale and that's the end of my money. One student could pinpoint the exact reason why he started working. I looked at my withdrawal and deposit slips and the withdrawals far outnumbered the deposits, so I got a job to even it up. 1.

ln addition to winning the float competition in their junior and senior years, the class of '79 sponsored the homecoming parade and dumped fli- ers on the stunned McClintock stu- dent body. The officers felt it was important to revive the old tradition ofa hike down Lakeshore Drive and subsequent bonfire. Board ol Supervisors mem- ber Doug Baldwin said the main rea- son for the parade was to get the enthusiasm of the school going for homecoming and keep it going through the weekend. Activities such as parades can be costly and the officers devised meth- ods of fund raising that were unique. Singing Valentines, original poems sung to modern tunes, was a project since their freshman year. However, the seniors also showed initiative by providing the opportunity for stu- dents to purchase senior T-shirts. We wanted something special for our class and it was a good fund raiser, too, Doug said. Even after graduation, the seniors won't stop planning events. Class of '79 members should start preparing for their next activity: a 20-year class reunion in Cot coursej 1999. 1. Seniors enjoy the time they have to eat and relax. 2. Senior Debbie Eveld enjoys the bus ride to the DECA conference in Salford. 3. Roger Flich and Steve Colgate promote the band's annual Spaghetti Dinner. 4. Seniors have devised various methods of getting through high school. 5. The spirit of '79 lives everywhere. 52-Seniors 5 7 Nothing could be finer
