Saturday Night Alive! David may be a bit grumpy on a Monday. Helen may want to space through second period most every day. Everyone gets sleepy in an English class following lunch. But give ' em a Saturday night and they come alive! Now few, if any, would argue that Blackford County is one of the world ' s great entertainment capi- tals. In fact some would even main- tain it borders on being dull. Still, on a weekend evening it ain ' t all bad. If you ha ven ' t got ahea vy, and the parents haven ' t stuck you with the yard-apes, and the car runs . . . you know it has gas, you head for town. You might go to A Wand to look for guys. You might go bowling and looking for guys. You might go to the Munice Mall to a movie and then go looking for guys. Or you might just go cruisin, . . . for guys. Now guys don ' t get upset that this is written from the girl ' s point of view. We know you aren ' t looking for guys. Just think of all those girls out looking for you. Well, maybe you aren ' t exactly what they had in mind but then they aren ' t always just what you were looking for ei- ther. Maybe down the road at Burger Chef, or later at the Dairy Queen? Sounds like ' Happy Days ' doesn ' t it? Welcome to Saturday Night in Bru- in Country. To celebrate a basketball victory, forwards Dave Dickey, Brett Town- send, Tom Sharp, and center Jeff Stroup share a coke. After A Bruin basketball game, Me- linda Defenbaugh, Anita Dawson. Lisa Brown, Kris Robbinson, and Dan Allen munch on a pizza at Clara ' s. 24 Partying

The ABA isn ' t dead, it ' s alive and well and living at Water Works park. The red, white, and blue ball appears with springtime. Days that turn it around ™T 1 Those precious few days that can turn it all around. When you wake- up and feel good before you even remember why. That first day of spring when it breaks 70 degrees and it ' s dry enough you can lay in the grass. And there aren ' t even any bugs to bug The baseball home opener. Hot dogs really do taste better when you eat them at the diamond. If the game goes extra innings you might just get a sunburn. You will regret that burn later, but at the time . . . it feels so good. Gentlemen start your engines, back home again in Indiana, and the roar of the engines at the 2 2 mile oval start the Indiana summer in style. Even if it ' s only on the radio it ' s part of the good times. And graduation day. Yes there are tough and lonely times to come, but on graduation day, today ' s the day we made it through . . . together. Twenty miles is a long way to go when you ' re walking. Judy Dunn and Dixie Batten partici- pate in the walk-a-thon. l mrn ' Oktim I W - jii 26 Happy Days
