Relocation of Pop Machines by Chandra Zarn The pop machines, which used to be located in the study hall, have been relocated near the honor pass table. The general school public now has more access to them. Two advantages to this change include the Student Council's benefitting from the great profit increase, and the students’ be- ing able to purchase the pop anytime they want. When the pop machines were in the study hall, students could only buy pop before and after school and at noon. In addition, competition between the Coke and Pepsi products was evi- dent w ith the moving of the machines. First, the Pepsi machine moved downstairs, while the Coke machine still remained in the study hall. As a result, the Pepsi machine netted greater profit during this transition because students who wanted Coke products were too lazy to walk up- stairs, thus, settling for Pepsi pro- ducts. Therefore, it didn’t take long for the Coke machine to relocate near the honor pass table. However, the competition didn't stop there. From watching television, students could see the rivalry between the two companies, and they wanted to get involved. Consequently, after the Pepsi man gave free pop to honor pass students, the Coke man was ca- joled into meeting the Pepsi chal- lenge. Obviously, our promotion of free enterprise is in good shape.

 The Charter . by Trevor Cronk The school district decided to pur- chase a new charter bus after numer- ous complaints from students who had to ride the old piece of junk. The older charter was decaying and had to be repaired frequently. It was a dread to ride because of the uncomfortable worn out seats. Not only did the old machine have to be repaired, but it broke down at numerous school events. Obviously Chinook was in need of a new charter. The school dis- trict voted upon and passed a motion to purchase a 1979 charter bus model equipped with air conditioning, a phone, and a restroom. The road trips are luxurious for Chinook students and problems are few. The art on the side of the bus, and orange and black Beeter man with the bold block let- ters, “Chinook Sugarbeeters”, make the bus look outrageous! Area com- munities have described the Beeters as going in style. Furthermore, the bus intimidates other towns as it rolls through them. A new sense of pride has been accepted by all Chinook stu- dents.
