VOTE YES NOV 4l975 Christmas carol singing in the language classes. The last day of school for 1975 cer- tainly didn't end on a very hap- py note. After a twenty-one day closing period, the schools were able to reopen on January 2, 1976 by borrowing against the 1976 taxes. As students once again filled the M. H. S. hallways, there was much con- fusion as many had forgotten their locker combinations and schedules. The office was in a hectic and pandamonious state. Generally it took everyone a few days to get reacquainted with everything. Many students began to wonder how it would feel to be going to school on Saturdays and holidays in order to make up lost classroom time. Most students, however, didn't seem to mind that much. They were just glad to be back with friends and finish out the school year. A special election was planned for January 30 1976, to again put the school levy to a vote--this time for 10. 8 mills. Fortunately, the levy was victorious with 2374 votes cast in favor of as opposed to 1562 votes cast against. Un- doubtedly the shock of the actual closing of the schools persuaded many Campbell vot- ers to cast their votes in favor of the schools. Had this levy not passed in january, officals predicted another closing in 1976, maybe for 55 days. If the levys were continually de- feated and revenue was not in- creased, perhaps the Campbell school system would have had to consolidate into another sys- tem. Indeed that would be a Very dark day in Campbell his- tory, for the closing of a school system is certainly a very sad and depressing event. The worst part of it is, the ob- vious people to suffer are in- nocent students who don't even have a voice i.n the matter. STUDENT LIFE I 25

Different faces, new con- cepts, drastically diverged at- titudes, are a few changes that have taken place since 1926. fs? bv -J' A , lr 5 Over the span of 50 years, from crew cuts and bobby socks, to shags and jeans, we've al- ways had somethingto look back on and be proud. Each graduat- ing class of Campbell Memorial have past memories that will linger on throughout their life- time. The Class of '76 is graduat- ing with double honor. Besides being the fiftieth graduating class of Campbell Memorial, we are also the graduating class of the bicentennial year of our country. . Our goal is to leave a deep footprint along the path we walk. . ,pl ,J SENIORSI 27
