STUDENT LIFE A day in the life of a student can be exciting, with many things to do and not enough time to do it, or the day can be a long, slow one. The following pages show just how a student either drudges through each day, or with a mixture of the right activities, the day and the year can be exciting and fulfill- ing.

Fun Time is Summertime Scott tenBensel thinks the lake takes the cake for summertime enjoyment. While the halls are empty and bare after school lets out in May, that doesn't mean the student's lives are empty also. It's hard to believe, but some students come to life and really start to live when schooltime turns to summertime. What do CHS students do during summertime? Well, one way a student spends summer is work- ing. Many students are found work- ing at home on the family farm, or working on a farm, lifeguarding at the city pool, and work is found at Doug's Place, Trosper's Dairy Creme, and even the Long Term Care Wing. Then, there's always babysitting. After the students get off work and want to kick back and relax, one of the most popular activities is heading out to Harry Strunk Lake for waterskiing, sunbathing, and seeing and being seen. Many guys are involved in Midget Legion baseball while the girls play a lot of softball. The students also look forward to some special activities that involve the community. Medi- cine Creek Days in Cambridge is a highlight of the summer and stu- dents also find time to attend other celebrations in surrounding com- munities. Some of the vacation destina- tions of CHS students are varied and could be anywhere from New York City to New Mexico. Not too many students travel on an international scale but several students would jump at the chance. There's no doubt about it. Summer is a special time that makes many memories for CHS student to look back on during some of those long, dreary, winter days. 22

It's all just begi % That's right. The first year of high school is just the beginning and as usual the Freshmen's class schedule is pretty well planned out. Some of the classes were a little tough like Algebra I, which was a lot different than Junior High. And some classes were just 'al- right', like Geography. P.E. was a little different than past years. All Freshmen had to take P.E. and this year it was a coed class, the last class of the day. Other Freshmen classes were Crafts, French I; which one Freshmen called an experience , Home Economics, Physical Science; and all those worksheets, English, General Business, Industrial Arts, and par- ticipating in Band and Chorus. The first year is over and now Freshmen are looking forward to better (and busier) years!

Middle, right; Casual work and casual conversation, that's what it's all about, right class?? Brad Holtze, Mar- ilyn Meyerle, Chris Eisenhart, Mike Jorgensen, and Tra- ccy Colson seem to go along with this saying. nning Right; This Science class is hard at it!
