just missing c closs? The average junior came to the crowded auxiliary gym with the typi- cal ''I-don't-care-where-I'm-going-as long-as-I-miss-class attitude. But when these students left, they had gained more than a period off. They knew more about what they could do with their future. These students had attended Ca- reer Day, designed to help students be- options clorified come more aware of the opportunities available to them. Colleges from all over Arkansas and surrounding states sent representatives to give the stu- dents a hands-on presentation. The program also included infor- mation on earning money. The word money caused a. glimmer of light in the junior's eyes, yet the word earn seemed to bring the dreams of fancy Eki, .:.k cars and huge houses down to reality. The junior class may turn out doc- tors, businessmen and women, car dealers, and mail carriers in time with the help of education. The juniors real- ized at the short get-out-of-class pe- riod they would have to plan carefully for a future not so far ahead. Past yearbooks and colorful information packets along with a. knowledgable college representative to answer their questions catch the attention of Angie J ones and Kar- en Moix. Interested juniors often discuss options among their peers. Kevin Curry and Patti Malloch look over a display set up by the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff.

To feel the wind pulling at their hair and watch the speed limit signs whizzing by gave their lives a new thrill. Freedom-loving juniors expe- rienced these sensations as more and more opportunities arose to test their driving abilities. Along with their new feeling of power came a flurry of tickets that dampened their high spirits. Tickets ranged from ordinary speeding to sitting on a moving car. Rumors spread that the speed limit would once again be 65 miles per hour - an idea that lifted the fidgeting ju- niors once more. Right when you get a new car it's hard not to go over the speed lim- v Y? it because you Want to see how far you can push it, said Sarah Norton. High powered engines and long stretches of empty road still called the juniors, though, and some found the temptation too inviting. They continued squealing their tires and risking their necks for a few short minutes of freedom. The blue and white police cars are a familiar sight to many drivers. They look harmless enough parked at the Maumelle Police Department, but they can quicken the heart when seen in a rearview mirror.
