8 For three weeks in September, many Brackites were forced to use a little extra shoe leather when San Antonio Transit system drivers went on strike. Some, like Juan Marquez (far right), stopped to reminisce over leisurely rides to school as they walked up to five miles to Brack. Others, less enthusiastic, simply stayed home for an extra 3-week vacation. The driver’s education simulator arrived at Eagleland just in time-many students like those pictured above signed up for phase two to insure themselves against another void in public transportation. Though phase two brought a driver’s license to most who took it, few were prepared for the calamity which befell George Mendiola (L) and Billy Blake.

- Another of the new changes brought about this year was a new method of registration. Students no longer rushed up and down halls and stairs to sign-up for classes; instead, they were each handed a print-out and told to “report to those classes.” This new computerized method not only saved students’ feet from blisters, it also kept the faculty from getting writers’ cramp. Computers were an asset in light of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare order to establish high school attendance zones. Many transfers had to be made and students’ schedules had to be re-programmed for new schools and classes. This time-saving device also made easier many of the tasks of Brack’s administrators. Most of the sophomore choice slips had to be transferred to their appropriate schools. One example was that the choice slips from Page to Highlands had to be transferred to Brack. Vice Principal Harold Singleton said, “As far as computers are concerned, they’re here to stay.” 7
