Besides drastically reducing the cost while remaining in style, showing their work to family and friends developed pride and interest in almost forgotten skills.

A breath of fresh air, the crackling of leaves, and the crunching of the newly fal- len snow alerted us to the sounds of the seasons. Recently, more and more students of Bedford High School put all troubles aside and retreated to the outdoors to en- joy whatever the seasons brought. For re- lieving pressures and drab everyday life, bicycling, horseback riding, hiking, or just plain relaxation became the favorite past time of students. Favorite picnicing areas included Squaw Rock, Lost Meadows, and the Glens. Jogging in the park or other natural surroundings relaxed and fostered both emotional and physical health. Yes. we are all getting BACK TO BASICS. What a way to stay in shape! Ross Randazzo, Tom Cichan, and Mario Bicnvenue go jogging after school. The parks’ many wonders .. .
