 Patsy, could I use the phone? Patsy, did my mom leave my medi- cine? Patsy, could I use the phone? Patsy, would you mind typing this? These are questions heard everyday in the upstairs office. Patsy is a very busy person, she works long and hard, and her job is never done. I think most of us never realize how busy she really is, because anytime you ask her to do something for someone she ll do it. And, I'm sure, we are all thankful for her help. Patsy’s dedica- tion is like the many individuals who work to make our school click . A DAY IN THE LIFE OF PATSY CREATURE FEATURES Have you ever noticed how some teachers have certain mannerisms? I have (obviously). Miss Alford, for instance, has a hang- up on the phrase theoretically speaking”, I think its Freudian. Mr. Reynolds signs passes with the name of a famous histori- cal person. Mr. Condren has a coffee cup with a pass on the front, in which he drinks pop first hour. Mrs. Glor has a habit of making jokes which the quicker witted catch, but it takes a few minutes for the others to catch. Mr. Seargent makes jokes nobody catches. Mr. Bennett makes turkey calls (a well known fact). Mr. Wood has a thing about saying no Mick- ey Mouse”. Miss Phillips is the only teach- er that takes off points for handwriting. These are only a few of the pecularities of the creatures that inhabit the rooms of BHS. 7

IN PURSUIT Tami Caswell managed to be a good parent and student. Shawn Sample and Christy Frye take a break from their tough Gal schedule. Jim Ritch rushed a phenomenal 1S85 yards this year. Scout and annual staff work hard to meet dead- Shelly Taylor and Jamie Beckner practice their duet for lines. meets. APPROVAL Having lived this long at BHS without turning into a psychopathic killer or a sex maniac, I feel I am qualified to tell you how to achieve your goals. Here are six sure fire steps (that your teachers never told you) to help you achieve your goals: 1. Marry rich. It helps to marry a rich old person with one foot in the grave. (Of course this person will probably live on and on.) 2. Don’t be afraid to brown nose occasionally. Even though colleagues will show contempt for you, your boss will love it, therefore moving you up the company ladder. 3. Don't be afraid to make sacrifices. Working overtime, on weekends, on vacation, and even in bed at night, will help you achieve your goals. 4. If you are unmarried, dating your boss (as- suming it is of the opposite sex) can move you up the ladder faster than almost anything. 5. Don't let the woman with the fake cleavage or the man with the fake chest hair, steal that promotion you worked so hard for. If you are the man or woman that I mentioned, totally disre- gard this step. 6. Be loyal. Be loyal to your job, boss, and country. But if a better job comes along, the heck with loyalty. 6 Jodie Taylor

A SLICE OF LIFE In the United States Constitution it states that we the people are entitled to the pursuit of happiness.” Many students at B.H.S. devote most of their time and energy to this cause. Although some may not have as much free time as they would like; when they do manage to get some time to devote to the pursuit of happiness they do it whole heartidly. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Free time is important and, most of us feel that everyone should have some form of relaxation, whether it be goofing off at Star on the weekend or just being with friends at school.
