WAITING FOR THE BIG MOMENT Throughout the ’83-’84 school year, we have all experienced times when we were lazy, carefree, and silly. But there is another side to this-the serious side. Take a look at these pictures: The pep squad waiting to see if they won the spirit stick at the pep rally; Donna Raphel hoping that she made the bas¬ ket at the basketball game; cheerleaders and football players in anticipation of the foot¬ ball game; Alan Berry at attention; and Miss Whitehead’s civics class waiting for test re¬ sults. These were some of the most serious moments of this school year, and we will always cherish the memories. GUSHER 17

PRESIDENT RONALD REAGAN A newspaper journalist re¬ ported President Reagan as having said, ’ 1 know there are no words that can express our sorrow and grief for the loss of the splendid young men and the injury to so many others. To achieve a stable gov¬ ernment in Lebanon, the U.S. Marines must remain, but if that goal becomes impossible, they would be withdrawn. I feel he’s doing good. Mr. Stickell LEBANON I think President Reagan needs to have all of our troops brought home. Too many Ma¬ rines have been killed and hurt. Cindy Flowers Reagan needs to do some¬ thing about the people we have in Lebanon. Ray Holland We are over there to pro¬ tect our interests. Stephen Flowers THE CARIBBEAN n We should withdraw troops and let them fight their own battles. Mary Bolton If the President believes that it’s in our national inter¬ ests to use the military to in¬ sure peace and stability in the Western Hemisphere, then timely intervention in threat¬ ened Latin American coun¬ tries is certainly justified. After all. American interven¬ tion in Latin American affairs is as old as the Monroe Doc¬ trine. Miss Whitehead The United States doesn’t need to be down there. Stephen Flowers 18 Student Life
