For every team that wins, one has to lose. PG took its turn. You had to listen to the zero season and the farmer country jokes, but you were proud of it because you cared. Cared about that desk top in class you always wrote notes on, the importance of a locker on top, and the fish in room 212. Cared about keeping up grades to stay on a sports team, keeping up grades to keep living at home, and keeping up grades to leave home for college. A care about national things: Carter's pardoning of draft evaders, keeping the thermostat down to 65 in winter, the novel Roots, and Freddie Prinze deciding that Chico just wasn't for him anymore. And a care about local things: the basketball loss to Dinwiddie after three overtimes, the always crowded stage, and pizza at Rosa's. You cared about a lot of things but mostly for friends. Some here all their lives, and some new military transfers. Old friends, good friends, and best friends. Friends to share a private joke with, and friends to cry over when the army moved them. People to grow up with, have fun with, be with, and to care about. things you cored obout Slhnggowl?gfoffjgwizisnggrsmgll'2J2:il:Ld Whenever someone from another school MY fe?'ifl9S about Pfesidenf Cafffff ' - . teases me about going to a county school, I Pa d0n'f'Q me dfaft eV-adefs afe mlxedf buf' most because you could raise more noise and laugh and then I ask how many days did they believe that no matter what President Carter SW if e 9'V e S a Sc 'C ed up 'n one get off fer snow. fDavid Price, Seniorj fries to do Someone iSn'1 going fo like it- place. fLinda Horne, Sophomore, wonnie Bowman' Junion THIRST QUENCHERS.

thinfgscyog live with You didn't mind some things, and did mind others, but really you had no choice in the matters. Complaining wouIdn't help, you had to put up with it anyway. Things like dressing out for PE, boiling frogs for dissection, and sticking to the 24 day absentee policy. Getting smashed, stepped on, crunched, and squished in the mini-halls. fOr smashing, stepping on, and squishing someone else in the mini-halls.D But how many times did they serve as an excuse for tardies? Staying up late for term papers, civil war papers, and cramming for mid terms. Freezing with the fuel crisis, going broke from inflation, and staying home because of gas prices. Fidgeting during that oral book report, worrying about that critical analysis, and studying and studying for that learner's permit. And things you could never decide upon . . . the West Point cadets reinstatement, Carter winning the national election, and the Equal Rights Amendment. But you had to live with it, just because.
