For The Right Pri¢e High school produces an almost hedenistic spirit in many students. Every clique has its own focus: clothes, hair, movies. Other people prefer more tangible or direct records, enjoyment: food, cars. But no matter what one buys, collects, consumes, or enjoys, there is almost always one tactor in common money It was amazing how often heard students were complaining about money, or more specificially a lack of it Students would do most any- thing to pinch a few pennies here and there to spend on their special interests. Values and priorities came very much into bearing when dealing with money. Decid- ing whether to make a minor purchase now or to wait and save for a more extravagant pleasure later was often a dilemma. One of few students activi- ties which did not cost money was schoolwork. “I can’t go out tonight. I have a big test tomorrow,” or, “I studied all night,’’ were ever-present comments. But move into voluntary obsessions and one found that most everything had a price. John Steele Students always. like to eat.

It Happened On A Midnight Blue Let’s travel to a time of make-believe where every- thing that is seen only lasts for the moment, and everything that is remembered lasts rorever On Friday, October 25, a clashing of armor rose from the English Stadium. Coura- geous warriors battled for the possession of a pigskin. At the sound of the final buzzer the score was 14-6.

The following night at the Homecoming Dance magic filled the air. The King and Queen took the traditional first dance to start the celebra- tion. Couples danced under the decorations of blue, silver, and white. Sir Charles, a name fitting a royal knight, supplied the music to complete this night of magic. At the stroke of midnight the royal court was abolished, the couples vanished, the decorations faded away and the music ended. In the dis- tance, an object sparkled in the mist of despair. It was a glass slipper.
