For many kids, high school was the first time when paychecks started coming in. Millikan stu- dents made sure they had a piece of the job mar- ket. With hamburgers over $1.00, gasoline at $1.25 a gallon, movies at about $3.00, and con- certs ranging from $10.00 to $25.00, bucks melted away quickly. Besides the usual assortment of traditional jobs, such as fast-food workers, there was also a large group of unusual jobs held by Millikan stu- dents. Ticket taker Daryl Friedman and usher Kathy Ander were employed at the Long Beach Convention Center, while Bernice Conley helped keep personnel records at Veteran ' s Hospital. Wendy Rosenstein earned money as a song leader at her temple, Lisa Fisher helped check credit for a health spa, and George Gjersvold charmed sporting goods customers. 16 Activities Jobs

Imagine All the People On Monday, December 8, 1980, former Beatle John Lennon was assassinated by a so-called fan out- side Lennon ' s home in New York City. Lennon was coming home from the recording studio when he was shot several times by a Hawai- ian man named Mark Chapman. Lennon was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital. His death came shortly after his return back into recording, where he had just finished putting out a new album called Double Fantasy. John Lennon ' s death brought just as much trauma as the death of Elvis Presley. Millions of fans all over the world gathered together shortly after his death to pay tribute while radio stations played nearly constant Beatle and Lennon music. Maybe his death would bring about changes in the future, but who knows what the rest of his life could have brought us? It ' s a shame . . .
