Deon H dY John Nicol sq it H North Campus Peaceful, somber, and quiet are they ,, As the silent hours drift away While they rest in gentle fortitude, w Calm and relaxed is their attitude. I Memories haunting the empty halls, The nameless chalkboards and faceless walls- Classrooms with desks in endless arrays, ,, Sifting through the time of endless days. Standing still as time passes them by, If you listen you will hear them sigh, Not a sigh of boredom-nor of grief, But a sigh of contented relief. , Remembering the laughing faces- Talking about different places, Faces talking of good times to come Keeping the halls in a constant hum. The great once-filled halls are filled no more, There is a padlock upon the door, Changes pass them by relentlessly, While North Campus stands there silently.

QW xx 1 Working o o dullngcemtly, custodians, cooks, and bus drivers tried to keep the school in tip-top working order. Even with the shortage of manpower, these people did a good iob to keep MHS's efficiency running smoothly. Functioning with a smaller maintenance staff, custodians were assigned a larger area to cover. New buildings meant new cleaning techniques. The new gymnasium needed to be swept twice a week, and the locker rooms required vacuuming daily. Agriculture also added a new building, and that meant 5,000 more square feet of cleaning. Because the cafeteria moved to the new Student Center in the spring of 1976, the cooks had time to organize for this school year. With everything in place, the cooks were all ready to feed MHS students. New eating facilities and a larger variety in lunches increased student purchases of box lunches, Class A lunches, and the a la carte lunches. a lias Mil

To THOSE DAYS ARE GONE. of SALLY MOSSINGER Tomorrow? Student life involved more than going to school and meeting assignments, it also included students expressing their creative side. Even though many MHS students were busy with school activities and homework, there was the time to be an individual. Daydreaming during school and at home let many students be the originators of their own fantasies. Knowing that the dream was personal and unique made Students work all the harder at it. To treasure the one time happinesses, students expressed feelings by writing poetry or sketching the visions for lasting memories. School presented the ideals of the arts to students and allowed them to become inspired. Appreciating the work of the great ones, students followed their footsteps. Who knows, perhaps the students' fantasies may be this generation's masterpieces. Splashlng through life's many pains and sorrows, Vondering what lays for us tomorrow You give me courage as you hold me by your side Jur love never failing, as constant as the tides You have taught me patience and trust ven though I regret growing older, I realize we must. I know we must face reality, he fact that never again may we be totally free Tomorrow we'lI face life's hungers and pain, ut today we'll stand together in the misty rain Today we'll talk about things before left unsaid Ve'll make sure we're putting our best effort ahead Today we'll talk of love and freedom, Ind of how from now on the two of us will be one Today we'll talk of patience and kindness, Ve'll linger over the remembrance of our first kiss Slowly today will turn to dust, .nd today we'll realize tomorrow was made for us. Kathy Owen Just for today I will live through the next I2 hours and try not to tackle all life's problems at once. Just for today I will improve my mind. I will learn something useful. I will read something that requires effort, thought, con- centration. Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look my best, speak in a well modulated voice, be courteous and considerate. Just for today I will not find fault with a friend or relative. I will not try to change or improve anyone but myself. Just for today I will exercise my character in three ways. I will do a good deed and keep it secret. If anyone finds out it won't count. Just for today I will be unafraid. Especially I will be unaf- raid to enioy what is beautiful and believe that as I give to others, others give to me. Anonymous Student work M3 . I!
