A new addition (opposite page top right) is the fence around the school, which was put up for security reasons. The ‘C’ lunch lines (opposite page below) are still long even after part of the thirty minutes have past. Even though the lunch periods were broken into three sections, (left) students sometimes had prob¬ lems finding tables. Students anxiously wait for 2:35 (lower left) rather than 3:05 for the bell to ring at the end of the day. President Carter ' s energy plan (lower right) went into effect as well as Mr. Kimble ' s. To combat the cold air, Mr Kimble taped cardboard over his air vent. CH-M1G€S

I Changes abound for CP students Changes abounded within the frame¬ work of Crown Point High School during the 1979-80 school year. Many long¬ standing traditions and rules were modi¬ fied due to policy changes by the mem¬ bers of the administration. The change most affecting the student body and faculty was the shortening of lunch hours to half an hour. This proce¬ dure was brought about because of com¬ plaints by town merchants of loitering and vandalism by students. Lunch peri¬ ods were divided into three half-hour ses¬ sions labeled “A-B-C.” A student’s time for lunch was determined by the sched¬ ule of his fourth hour class. Developments brought about by this change included shorter lunch lines and the elimination of intramural activities in the gym. The nicest change for students was the dismissal of school at 2:35 instead of 3 p.m. This meant extra time for athletes to pr epare for meets and working students to relax before heading off to their jobs. Other changes included the fence that was circumscribed around the school as a deterrent to late night vandals. For those not wanting a hot meal, a salad bar was installed in the cafeteria. To comply with President Carter’s energy conserva¬ tion plan, thermostats were lowered. Despite the above differences in school policy, students, teachers, and administration adjusted easily. By next year, these changes will be taken for granted. 20—Changes
