Who’s That? the first small school that I have attended. I have only year to go and I look forward to it.” — Howard Chapman Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be the “new kid” in school? We asked a few what it’s like and here is what they had to say. “It’s frightening at first, trying to make new friends and not knowing how people are going to except you, but I like it here. It’s different than other schools I’ve been to. I just hope I’m here to graduate in the Class of ’87 at BHS. — Laurie Lewis “At first I was quite scared when I came back to the school. You see I left Bement Grade School in fifth grade. As people say, I became a Monticelloian, but that’s not true. Monticello didn’t have spirit like Bement.” — Beth Stengel “I think that the school is a good one. The people are a lot nicer here than they were where I came from. Bement High School is Was It Enough To Scare People Sunday, November 20, 1983 “The Day After” was scheduled to be telecast on ABC. Over 100 mil- “I believe that a nuclear war would be a no-win situation. The world would more than likely be destroyed and most of the people would die within hours. The ones that do survive would die in months because of cold weather and lack of food. If there does happen to be another war, it would probably be fought with bombs that would only kill the people and not ruin the world. — Don Quick lion people viewed. The movie tried to show what it would be like if there would be a nuclear war. “I think nuclear war would be suicide for both the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. Most, if not all of the rest of the world would be destroyed too. I don’t think it will happen because why would anyone want to destroy themselves?” — Mary Kirwan We asked a few of the Senior students what they thought about war and here are their responses. “I think that it is possible but I doubt that it will happen because the U.S.S.R. wants to take over our country and if they started war with us, both countries would be destroyed. — Karla Satterfeal Fact There are 40,000 nuclear war heads and missiles in the United States and Soviet Union.

FRESHMEN HAVE NO PROBLEM FITTING IN The Freshmen this year have found there are many changes and more privileges from Jr. High. Participating in High School sports, dances, clubs, and many other activities made the Freshmen feel they belong. This year the Football Team won the L.O.V.C. conference title for the second year in a row and the Freshmen were to witness it either by playing or cheering them on. Placing third in the Homecoming parade was also a big event. Although there are many changes in store for the Freshmen, they have proved they’ll have no problem fitting in. Joy Lewis and Jeannie Schroeder do some last minute studying before their test.
