Summer allowed time to do those things that one enjoyed. One thing Robbie James thoroughly enjoys is keeping his Chevy pick-up spotless with frequent cleanings. To get a tan was a major goal for the hotter months. Soaking up the sun and enjoying their friends are Michelle Yorn, Lisa Cash and Laura Bowman at the new swimming complex. 10 Summer

Filling up on Student Life Slow dancing to the music, making the drag, lying in the sun, studying for a test, working for a living — these were only a few of the ac- tivities that made up the life of the typical stu- dent. From school, to work, to home, to play, the hours were spent sometimes with one’s mind on the future, sometimes looking back and sometimes just in the pleasure of the moment. Life had its exciting moments such as waiting for the announcement that Beverly Garrison had been selected Homecoming Queen. Tender moments were spent snuggled up close to that special person. Fun and excitement were ex- perienced by those who got involved with Spirit Week. The fact that the football team had a los- ing record for the second straight year pro- voked sadness in even the stoutest hearts. In the end the year would be another chapter filled solid thru and thru with memories of another day when the heart was young and life was fun. The tryouts for the all-school production, West Side Story,” could be nerve-racking for anyone. Alice Dant- zler and Kortni Gibbons rake up enough courage to try for a position as a dancer.

Everybody’s favorite season, summer was The Breaking Point Qummer was the time to break r from school, to get away from that every night homework and early curfew. Almost everyone’s favorite season, summer was a time to enjoy. Michelle Dixon said, “It's my favorite season because it’s when you can get together with all your friends and go to the lake or just mess around town. When students were not at the lake they could usually be found at a nearby pool or out of town on vacation. Monique Martin spent most of her summer in Hawaii just getting a tan and enjoying being away from home in the nice weather. Some students did not have to go out of state for vacation. They just went to Oklahoma City for a concert or to Crossroads Mall for a little sum- mer shopping. Many students did not get a chance to go on vacation because they had to work. If you were in Bet- tilou Bryce’s, Leslie Bryant's, Kim Deweese’s or Kelly Southall's place, the job was just as good as a vaca- tion. All four worked as life guards at the city pool. Water and sun make summer fun for Eric Aspenson a he takes a dive. Back to school shopping could be enjoyed at leisure In the summer. New sisters Lori Bair and Erin O’Rear try to decide which sweaters to buy while shopping at Anthony’s. Summer 11
