This may not be everyone's idea of excitement, but on the average, everyone flips on the TV now and then for a little amusement. As a matter of fact, some of us spend quite a lot of time flipping the channels in search of adventure, romance, humor and education. Whether we realize it or not, TV has a big influence on us. It brings tears to our eyes or puts a smile on our face. Those of us who are trying to watch our weight are antagonized by McDonald's, Burger King and Pizza Hut commercials. .lust when we're at our breaking point, we hear, Tab, Tab Cola, what a beautiful drink. . . and regain our resistance. You can bet that many of us return home from school to sit in front of the tube for awhile. Contrary to an old belief, teachers don't always spend their evenings over un- graded papers. They catch a little TV, too, and they don't just watch educational channels. Faculty! 135

Dlnchln Denmes If we were all put on trial for wasting energy, the verdict in almost every case would be guilty.We've all neg- lected, at one time or another, to turn off the lights or the TV. We're also found guilty of gas guzzling in which the offense is driving up and down Main for no apparent reason. However, in the past year we've become more aware that we'll have to get along with less heat, less travel and start to wear much more wool. Many of us preferred to keep our coats, on due to the 68 degree thermostat setting in the school build- ing this year. With the increase in energy prices it will cost 30 per cent more to heat and light our school next year. However, low temperatures bum up more calories to keep our body heat stable. This could be a defmite advantage for the weight watchers in school. Whatever the changes have been in our lifestyles because of the energy crisis, here's what a few of our teachers did to SAVE THAT ENERGY. Question: What have you been doing to conserve energy? We bought a wood burning stove, and keep the thermostat set at 50 degrees all the time. Virginia Guthrie, Food III and needles. I turn the thermostat down to 60-65 degrees.
