 “But. . .but, Mr. D., I can’t serve a detention after school. I’ll miss General Hospital!” Capable of hurdling after school detentions, enduring any ten minute commercial interruption, and summariz- ing two months of episodes in one breath, the General Hospital fan is a specie commonly found hypnotized before the television every weekday afternoon from three to four. Faithfully, General Hospital addicts follow Scotty’s dirty deeds, Amy’s latest gossip, the break-up of Bobbie and Noah, Ann shedding her “goodie two shoes” image, and Lila’s manipulation of the E.L.Q. They watch Monica’s marriage crumple when Alan moves in with Susan even before the divorce is undecided. And, in the same episode, can see Rick and Leslie re-tie the knot and adopt little Mikey. Occasionally, they are hit with some- thing like murder, in this case, Diana Taylor’s. And, after a long drawn out affair, it is solved with Mrs. Grant found guilty of pulling the trigger while attempting to stop Heather. Now, Heather, after being accused of murder, must visit Dr. Cattsto determine her sanity and capability to adjust to society. Nevertheless, it is Luke and Laura, daytime tele- vision’s Bogie and Bacall, who draw the fans. Their wedding was the long awaited episode, the happily-ever- after ending. But, in General Hospital, there are always complications, and even a marriage made in heaven isn’t safe. Scotty’s pranks, Mrs. Casadine’s curse, and Laura’s disappearance might prove to be things Luke might not overcome. The never ending maze of General Hospital has lost hordes of General Hospital fans in its corridors. And, the fans thrive on all that General Hospital has to offer, scandal, murder, corruption, romance, and Tony Geary. 37 General Hospital by Chris Indoe

A Different Stroke Billy Villalobos: Cheerleader by Tracey Brown Cheering tryouts. Countless numbers of teenage girls biting fingernails and chattering nervously. But what is this? A boy at tryouts?! “There must be some mistake!” cry several of the prospective cheerleaders. Contrary to what many thought, there was no mistake. Senior, Billy Villalobos, was truly attempting to become the first male cheerleader at B.H.S. in almost fifty years. This attempt was, indeed, successful. Now for the real test. Would Billy actually go through with the pep rallies and games? He sure did! He practiced throughout the summer months and later attended each pep rally and every game. 38
