I K... K Senior Excuses Soar Students Try The Ultirnate' To Get Out Of Class Every year seniors use excuses to get out of school. A lot of times when students want to get out of school, they have a friend act as their parent and make a phone call telling the school it's all right if they get out. Most of these excuses work, but not every time as in Kenny Baldwin's case. Once I told the teacher I felt like I was going to throw up and she told me to have a seat and laughed. Mainly these excuses are the same from year to year, such as I feel Raymond Ferguson: Golden I Strip Shayna Ann Ferguson: Volleyball 1, 2, 3, 4, Basketball 1, 2, 33 Softball 1, 2, 3, 43 Student Council 23 Powderpuff 3, 4.

Susan Cantrell, for example, went to the health room one day and told Mrs. Younginer that she was sick. The nurse gave Susan a ther- mometer to take her temperature and left the room. Susan said, When she left, I put a penny in my mouth to raise the temperature. When she came back, I took the penny out of my mouth and she let me go home.

The class of '86 continued the tra- ditional pranks and practical jokes. As the year drew to an end, seniors became willing to confess to stunts and capers. Jill Deitchley had a great time get- ting out of work while a substitute was in class. When the substitute gave the class an assignment, Jill said, Oh, that's for another class we haven't gotten that far yet. Occasionally, students threw sur- prise parties for teachers on test days or watched Sesame Street on televi- sion when they were supposed to be watching an educational program. Some seniors even went as far as to sell elevator passes to freshmen. What will seniors think of next? Stephen Babb J.
