AND LIFE GOES The 3:45 late bus was not late enough for many athletes, as practices ran into the early even- ing. The boys and girls basketball teams had to accomodate each other by sharing the gym on a complicated schedule. One of the teams often had to stay after as late as 6 or 7:00. Snow that re- fused to fall, resulting in treacher- ously icy conditions on the slopes, didn't keep the ski team from weekly trips to nearby ski areas for practices, sometimes not re- turning until 8 or 9:00. the year- book staff, off in their own little room at a far wing of the school, forever tried to meet deadlines during meetings extending far into the night. During fall and spring drama seasons, a soft glow shone from the open auditorium doors onto the outside lawn into the wee hours of the night, and drivers passing by could catch a flash of color hinting at the endless activ- ity within as Company cast and crew members sang, danced, hammered, and ordered away in preparation for those few nights of glory up on stage. Chamber singers met regularly throughout the year on Monday nights to re- hearse for periodic concerts. Yet when the door had closed behind the last person the silence reigned tif only for a few hoursb, until the restless activity would begin again.
