As the dismissal bell rings, freshman Mike Bosnich, juniors Mladen Kralz and Steve Zeldenrust, and seniors 5lavko Bosnich and Tom Mueller quickly finish their lunches before heading to their next classes. One half hour oj escape As the bell rings, the average student is thankful that it ' s time for lunch since his stomach has been making noises since 10 o ' clock. Trying desparately to make his way through the hall crowds, he finally spies his destination, the cafeteria. Quickly putting his books down at his regular table, he digs for his money and heads up to one of the lunch lines. After waiting in line for about five minutes, he reaches the food, only to find that they ' re serving hamburgers and cheeseburgers again. So he grabs a bag of fries and a shake, pays the cashier, “id returns to his table for the same ■ nutritious mealthe third day in a row. Even though not all students enjoy the food that is served during the lunch hour, the majority still bring money for a hamburger, fries, and a shake instead of a bag lunch. But, since there are three different food lines, hot meals, ala Carte, and salad bar there is a variety of food from which to select from. Lunch is usually never boring. A loud round of applause from a corner in the cafeteria signifies that some poor, embarrassed student has dropped his whole tray of food on the floor. Tunes of Happy Birthday can drift across the air as a group of students quickly devour the birthday cake for the lucky person. Many organizations also set up bakesales where a wide range of goodies are sold in hopes of making a good profit. Carrying extra pennies around is also a must since the milk and other drink prices went up one cent. But as the dismissal bell rings, he gathers his books and heads to his next class after eating and spending time talking with friends. This mere half hour gave students a chance to break away from the study routine and gave them a chance to escape. Luruh 7

As the late afternoon rays of sun shine through the Common ' s windows at the end of the school day, juniors Ann Stepniewski and Debby Whitham and sophomore Candis Wojcik stop to talk for a while before they catch their ride home. Brrrinq. . . relief or so theu think It seemed as though that bell would never ring, but eventually it did and simultaneously a feeling of freedom overcame most students as they rushed to catch their ride home. However, escape was not so quick to come for many other students involved in extra-curricular activities. Even though they were stuck staying after school, many of the students felt that it wasn ' t so bad because they got to talk with a lot of their friends outside of the classroom. Also, one sophomore felt that working after school on debate helped to discipline her somewhat. Those who headed home after school probably all headed in the same general direction . . . the refrigerator, to either pig out or just to grab a few munchies to eat while watching their favorite television show. Whether one stayed after school, or went home after the bell they had the same thing in common eventually— homework. As sophomore Nancy Rzonca put it, even though I ' m involved in Drama Club and Gymnastics, I still have time to get my homework done. I might have bags under my eyes the next day, but it gets done. 8 After School
