Juniors Locker decorum stylish BY COREY WATTON Lockers. Vital parts of every student’s school life that are often overlooked and taken for granted. What would we do without those cubicles that house our books, coats, and important assignments? “My locker is always forgotten about because it is an absolute mess,” said junior Eric Hammerschmidt. “It is like my room, but smaller.” Lockers are not the most exciting features of our high school. But, with the right added decoration, a student’s locker can be a show place for all. Pictures of rock and roll heroes, sex symbols, or a boyfriend or girlfriend all adorn the inside portion of a person’s locker. “A person’s locker may show a touch of class, or his or her unknown de- sires,” said senior Brent Guess. “Pictures of girls in my locker spice up an otherwise boring school day,” said junior Chad Barrett. Tracy Kersten added, ‘‘I have a picture of my honey in my locker so I can see him every day, even though he is in Lincoln.” The slamming of locker doors is an often heard noise between classes. The exchanging of books, combing one’s hair, getting a snack out of a lunch, or adding that last touch of make-up are all activities done in those three short minutes. “I would die without my mirror that is up in my locker. Without it, my hair would be a total mess and I could not pick up women,” said junior Tom Thomas. Lockers at NCHS exhibit individual tastes and styles. This locker shows the characteristics of seniors Corey Watton and Brent Guess.

Juniors Role models affect lives BY KRISTI RODEMAN Role models. They are people we admire and look up to. They are also the person whom we most try to pattern our lives after. They have a great influence on what we do and what we are like. But why do people have role models? Some feel that people need a goal in their life, to be like someone they admire because of appearance, talent, or authority. Others feel that maybe it’s just that people need guidance in their lives. Yet for whatever reason people have them, role models vary from fellow students to parents and teachers, to people who are known worldwide. President Reagan has had a great effect on people’s lives during his terms in office, as do singers, actors, and comedians who have made it big. My role model is Carol Burnett because she had red hair, she’s funny, and brings laughter to people across the world,” said senior Crystal Bowen. Other role models include athletes and politicians. Some even have role models who are no longer alive or are fictional. “My role model is Charlie Brown because we both have a little red headed girl and the worst of luck,” said senior Tony Hubbard. Every person’s role model is different as we all have different tastes. The people range from Arnold Schwartzenager to Mr. Runkles and from Hulk Hogan to Mr. Bel-ding. Yet whoever your role model is, it will definitely affect what you’re like and maybe even what you will become in the future. Rock singer Jon Bon Jovi got many votes from the NCHS students as one of their role models.
