unch in the lower gynwWine arts audi- toriumfcafeteria was a new expenence. Finally you had an organized way to pig out. Butjust like every thing else, it did tend to get messy. Katherine Blackmon, sophomore, said, I don't like the new cafeteria because eating out was more fun. As the weather got warmer, the gym lost its appeal and evrybody moved outside to eat on the wooden Tinkertoys . Sixth and seventh peirods were spent recovering from the nausea and looking foward to 3:01. Although you professed a hatred of school and criticized it during the day, you knew that it wasn't as strict as it was made out to be. You could most always get away with what you wanted. School was a place to talk and have as much fun as possible. After all, most rules were made to be broken!

Nathan Maune, co-editor, added, Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Whether they were president of a club, captain of a spirit group or editor of a publication, head honchos found that the pressure of their jobs was tremendous, and without the support of other officers and members nothing would have been accomplished. For instance, lunior Beta Club, one of the largest groups with 101 members, hosted Christmas parties for Children's Hospital, spon- sored a basketball shootout to raise money for the Arthritis Foundadtion and held a Hawaiian dance. President Kim Connor said, We got a lot of participation from the seventh and eighth graders for our dances, but we were disappointed in the participation in the shootout. We raised the most money in the state, but that was only about 550. The 90 members of Senior Beta Club brought the Red Cross Blood Mobile to Pulaski Academy in the spring and collected 43 pints of blood. Our goal for giving blood was 50 pints, said junior Ianell Thach, who was in charge of the blood drive. We came the closest to our goal that we have ever come, and we appreciate every- one's help. For the officers of the lunior National Honor Society, the main task for the year was getting organized since the group was beginning its first full year of existence. l think it's neat that we have a lunior National Honor Society, because people that work hard should be recognized, said jill Thomas, president. Tutoring in all subjects and visiting local retirement homes were two activities of the Senior National Honor Society. President Amy Bishop said, Actually, I was the only person that got nominated. No one else would run for the job. It's pretty fun but a lot more work than I thought.
