Give me a Five, four, three, two, one, RING! The countdown began at the end of that first long seventy-minute period. But students didn ' t get a break until another seventy-minute class had passed. Ten minute break: it wasn ' t much, but students made the most of it. They finished last minute homework assignments, crammed for tests, talked with friends, and if they were lucky, they got into the bath- rooms before students jammed in to comb their hair and relay the latest gossip. It was also a time to catch a glimpse of that special boy or girl or lean against the wall and watch the new prospects walk by. The next break didn ' t occur until lunch when students satisfied growl- ing stomachs with the cuisine from the cafeteria or paper bags from home. After shoving down a quick lunch, some students used the thirty minutes to put finishing touches on last night ' s homework, or borrow a friend ' s homework to complete an assignment. But the best break of all? Friday at 2:30. ABOVE: Tom DeLoreto and Schree Hach, juniors, were oblivious to the crowded halls around them during ten minute break. RIGHT: Sometimes Newman resembled a hospital more than a school, as students hobbled around on crutches. Senior Robert Denton pulled ligaments in his knee during football practice, and Mary Pat Hoffman, senior, tore ligaments in her ankle at the district volleyball meet. No, Robert didn ' t push her. She fell. 32 STUDENT LIFE

biJmfaimiiMyalalilti DPZ V From the first period class on IVIonday morning to the last period class of Friday, students were looking forward to the weekend. When Friday afternoon finally rolled around, many people were thinking of that familiar expression, Thank God it ' s Friday! Plans for the weekend were long underway and all were anxious to start partying. The next two and half days were filled with fun, leisure and excitement. A lot of time was spent under the sun, either surfing, sailing, skiing or just plain sun bathing. And who could forget those Niggerhead parties? Nights were filled with movies, games, dances, concerts and more parties. Like all good things, the weekend had to end. Unfortunately, the end of the weekend meant the beginning of a new school week. Forty-five minutes until the end of second period, thank God it ' s Friday! is the body language of junior Pete Polak. ti 34 STUDENT LIFE
