Lunch hours have been improved at Crown Point High. Among these improvements is the opening of the cafeteria and a more extensive intramurals program. The cafeteria is for the most part car¬ peted which makes it much more com¬ fortable for eating lunch. The other improvement for students’ lunch hours has been the bettering of our intramurals program. This program allows students to have fun competing together and gives stu¬ dents a chance to make use of the facili¬ ties available to them. Some of the sports in which students can participate are volleyball, tennis, badminton, hand¬ ball, raquetball, pingpong, and wres¬ tling. Senior Bob Elder spends some of his lunch hour doing homework (top). The empty caf¬ eteria awaits the mad rush of the lunch hours (above). Freshman Monte Wood and Senior Jeff Powers play intramural basket¬ ball (right). 16

School additions finished but the effects stayed. After nearly three years of noisy con¬ struction, Crown Point High School has finally gotten back to. normal. The growing pains felt by students and fac¬ ulty were not suffered in vain. A new swimming pool, library, cafe¬ teria, an auxiliary gym, and an audito¬ rium which seats 1500 are just a few of the additions constructed over the past three years. Many new classrooms were added and the remainder of old rooms remodeled. Upon these halls and rooms, five days of spirit were to descend, but it was a new kind of spirit here at CPHS. It was true that few people dressed in red and white or greased their hair, but a feeling was there. The teams were supported, not in strange clothes, but in true spirit. This new kind of spirit was noted at sectionals where Crown Point was awarded the spirit award. It seems that finally apathy is leaving our school. 18
