'. --Q EQ i s s Light As A Feather To Sue Skony, raising birds is killing two with one stone. Not only does she enjoy watching her two magpie finches, but she is also trying to breed the two birdsg a rare incident among magpie finches in captivity. The finches' names are Ricochet and Lady ll. Though several eggs have been layed, the birds always push the unhatched egg through the bars of the cage, onto the floor. This is not the only problem that Sue has encountered. Her cocker spaniel, Taffy, seems to have an affinity for mag- pie finches. Sue explains, One day, Lady I perched herself on Taffy's water dish. Taffy did not like this so she attacked the bird. That is the reason that we named our next bird Lady ll. Sue has raised several wild birds who were abandoned by their mother, but she found them to be more of a problem than domesticated birds. Her main interests lie in breeding the two magpie finches. The birds provide many interesting moments. Often, the birds are allowed to fly freely throughout the house. On one occasion, part of a Bostern fern was missing. From that incident, the house plants have been watched more carefully when the birds are uncaged. Sue concludes, Raising birds as pets can be very exciting. Ricochet has the habit of attacking people's heads. That type of incident and the task of trying to breed the birds makes this an even more interesting hobby. 4- 164 X sophomores

flllpen vs. lllusecl Stutlg Halls For the student who does not have a full academic load, there are two types of study halls. Sophomores are restricted to closed study halls, where they are not allowed to speak. Mike Martin says, lt's a little too strict in a closed study hall. We should be able to talk and just keep the noise down. Available to the upperclassmen, open study halls relieve school woes. During an open study hall, students can converse with their friends, eat ice cream, and possibly, even study. l like open study halls because you can talk and you are not confined to a small space, comments Mindy Ftaterink. Open study halls often provide students an opportunity to consult their classmates for help with assignments. Steve Topetzes says, The open study hall is undoubtedly more beneficial because it enables the stu- dent to confer with his classmates on the subject matter. Sue DeCola agrees, Open study halls are better because you can get people to help you with your work. Many times, students find that the insight of their peers is a larger help in understanding their assignments than the teaching techniques used by their instructors. Carrie Haufschild remarks, Study halls afford the student the opportunity to expand his or her horizons through group studying. Permanent passes are available to those students who wish to concentrate on one subject during a study hall. Students may also obtain passes to work on one of the school's literary publications. Although most students prefer an open study hall, the closed study hall does present its own merits. Sometimes, it proves easier to accomplish homework in a closed study hall because there is no temptation to talk with friends. This has caused mixed feelings for some students. Martha Schauer com- ments, Closed study halls are good because you get more work done, but open study halls are nice because you can talk. Mr. Wysocki concludes, Many upper- classmen are surprised at how much work they can get done in a closed study hall, when they are sent there for a period of time for disciplinary reasons. l, Tim Holter John Honeck John Horn Sheila Horter Bonnie Howe Wendy Huber Kim Huffman Mike Hughes Patti Hughes g X Julia Huhnke Jim Hurley 3-1.
