Choosing a college is one of the hardest aspects of being a senior. Kim Bridges discovers this as she looks at a yearbook from Wingate College. Sandra Peeler, Jeff Willard, and Linda Payne enjoy their meal during lunch break. The price of lunch this year went up from 75 cents to 90 cents.

—— We are all just ‘‘tourists”’ on the plane of life. The events of ‘81-'82 helped students come to a greater appreciation of this fact. For a senior class of 242, this year was the final land- ing at Burns. They showed that they intended to reach the stars with activi- ties such as the peanut sale that raised approximately $2000 for the prom. In- volvement kept them too busy to realize that this was the LAST year. The juniors, 309 strong, found themselves at a stop-over. Some where in between take-off and the final landing, they did not experience a burn out but kept busy preparing for their senior year. For 296 sophomores it was a turbulent year. Tak- ing ridicule from the upper classmen as well as making the adjustment from junior to senior high made this the toughest year of all. However, the class re- sponded well and got in- volved in everyday activi- ties. They proved that they could handle the ‘‘pres- sure” by placing second in the homecoming float contest, and by winning the “spirit stick” at the pep rally before the game with rival Shelby High. ‘‘Tourists’'’ — going through the moves, seeing the sights, and developing new horizons, — students gained a fresh perspective from the word ‘‘accom- plisnment”’. 124 Tourists —— ————————————————— Positive and negative drawings — what's that? Junior Amy Bar- rett demonstrates this as she does work on hers during Art Il. Joy Hawes, Student Council treasurer, has the sole respon- sibility of operating the school store each morning before homeroom. Joy tries to make change for a student who purchased a pencil so that she could be prepared for her classes.
