The Commons: Heartbeat Of The School Perhaps the most utilized area of the school was the Commons. Morn- ing conversations before the first bell and last minute breakfasts of soda pop were shared in the Com- mons to begin the school day. The carpeted heart of the school served as an area for Friday night stomps, formal dances, parent-teacher conferences, registration, student club activities, movies, pep assem- blies, club activities and fund raisers, electioneering, a meeting place for student government, and occa- sionally a classroom when rooms be- came unbearably hot or cold. The approximately 600 chairs and accompanying tables were filled each day at lunch time. When ac- tivities were held, the custodial staff could clear the area in a matter of minutes to provide a large, open area for many purposes. Many thought of the Commons as the most practical of the new ideas that went into the construction of Alta High School. 196 Sophomores

Sophomores 195 Did you notice something differ- ent about all those handouts you received this year? Got it? Well if you hadn't noticed, they were all printed in black and white rather than in the traditional purple, ditto ink. The story behind this earth-shak- ing difference was the installation of a new Xerox copier in the teachers' workroom. “Mr. Xerox , a nine-foot machine, complete with sorter sits waiting to turn out reams of work- sheets for work-hungry students. The new machine directly photo- graphs an original copy using regu- lar paper. The copies turned out were easily readable. Mr. Xerox could even reduce printing size so two pages of type could be put on one page, and could print on both sides of the paper Teachers found “Mr. Xerox slower than ditto printing, and with all teachers clammering to use one machine, long lines often formed. Some teachers even suggested a reservation system or a Baskin-Rob- bins number taking system be in- stalled. But all in all, the new copier provided teachers and students with better copies of their work. Kyong No Lane© Naylor Jay Neiheisei Barry Nelson Kenny Nelson Nancy Nemanic Lori Neve
