Joy, Was ITIy Face Red! We all have them. The em- Irrassing situations when all u want to do is sink through S ground and disappear-but iickly. ' Unfortunately, all you can do stay where you are and face ■ur palsor worse, strangers- jghing their heads off. But )m a distance-after the first bling of humiliation is gone- iu can ' t help laughing iur self. And why not? It is funny len people make fools of emselves, right? Right! So :re, for the enjoyment of our aders we give you a selection embarrassing moments that ippened here in Carroll, as Id by the victims. Oh, I know what mine is, ys Wendy Shipley. Once, in ass, I was teasing a guy sit- ig behind me. Then, when 1 rned my back to him, he iclipped my bra-just like that, could have died!! Of course, ' erybody saw it. I crossed my ms and half ran out to the stroom. I didn ' t care much r going back in again . . . On the opening night of the Hies last year, we messed up i) bad, it was just murder, lys April Combs. We were playing in a melodrama when the guy 1 was conversing with forgot his lines. So we waited for the prompter to give it-but it never came. So finally I said, in character, of course, Young man, what is your line? The answer was a huge shrug both from the guy on stage and the prompter. The audience was roaring, as well as everybody on stage and back stage. I was in the library with a friend, a guy, when somebody started goofing around over on the other side. So I tried to get my friend to look over there, tapped his leg-just to get his at- tention. Well, he thought 1 was making passes, turned away and hissed to me to quit it. That was embarrassing. And when he saw how embarrassed I was, he was, too. Finally we just exploded in laughter. We ended up being kicked out of the library. The worst situation ever, says Bob Coffee, was when some wrestling guys got me to help them during a spirit ses- sion. They said they needed somebody to show off grips and catches. Sure. When they had me in a secure grip, somebody sprayed shaving cream under my clothes. And I mean everywhere! Imagine get- ting that gooey stuff all over, and with everybody watching! ' Once, during a show choir performance, the top part of my dress fell down, says Mary Isenhour. Just what do you do in a situation like that? I find it hard to believe now, but I ac- tually finished the dance-one hand holding it up the best 1 could. — Anna Bergstrom 9 the Vacation Blues ° ' ' hem all rk • ' SMse parents ■ ' » her ' •stma; An ' ;?

Exchange Students Trade Cultures For the past seven years, Carroll High School has hosted a foreign exchange program in- cluding students from Brazil, Belgium, and Mexico. This year, working through the Youth For Understanding organization, we have three students from Norway, Sweden, and Uruguay. Steve Simonsen, a senior from Norway, finds the at- mosphere is much looser here than in Norway in July. His future plans include continuing an education in law. Anna Bergstrom is also a senior with Sweden as her homeland. Anna involves herself with the theater and you may have seen her in this year ' s play and musical. The classes are different here. I think it is easier. In Sweden the classes are more difficult. We spend more time in the academics. If you want any ex- tracurricular activities you must look outside of the school, says Anna. After her return to Sweden, Anna in- tends to either further her schooling or continue traveling through Europe. The third foreign exchange student joined Carroll at the beginning of the second semester and will return in Ju- ly. Rosario Pereira, from Uruguay, is a junior this year. Although a language barrier caused problems at first, she quickly adjusted to American customs and slangs. My American family is nice. My sister is very polite and helps me. I do miss my friends and family in Uruguay. It is very dif- ferent here. The school is big- ger and there are more things to do. I enjoy the dances, like the toga dance. We don ' t have those. It ' s fun, says Rosario. The student exchange pro- gram has proven to be a suc- cessful way of trading cultures. We wish to extend our greetings to those who are here now and those who have yet to come. — Mary Isenhour Top: Anna Bergstrom tries out for the school play.

Jef Gump and Terry Meehan demonstrat a common problem of lefthanders — Julie Kohrman Sweet Sixteen: The Freedom flge For most young adults, 16 is a very innportant age. It could even be referred to as the freedom number. For it is at the tender age of 16 that young rebel teens become adult legal drivers. To many, getting a drivers ' license appears to be an unob- tainable goal. Junior Sheri Gross said, The Anticipation was the worst part. I remember when my brother got his license, and me thinking I would never get mine. But now that it ' s happened, it ' s great! But although one is ready to legally drive, his or her parents may not be. As freshman Stephanie Worster com- mented, I have wanted my license for a long time, but my dad doesn ' t seem to be as ex- cited as I am. And who could blame him? As one parent stated, It ' s kind of scary think- ing your child is driving alone. You Are always worried when the phone rings and your child has taken the car and gone out. So remember teens, getting your drivers ' license is really fantastic! But treat it as a privilege and don ' t forget that privileges can be taken away just as fast as they were granted. — Lori Johnsor 28 Small Change
