FOCUS ON REALITY Fingers rub eyelids in boredom and frustration, as if they are trying to rub out the immediate world. Colors flash behind eyelids — a movie on a screen. Figures and shapes in the room are obscured and wavering, seen through unfocused eyes. The teach- er’s mouth moves hut no sound comes to the ears; the mind is not com- prehending. A distant part of the imagination beckons. Classroom noises and life’s complications disap- pear. They seem to lose themselves in clouds of unreality. A scent comes to the nose, a bottled fragrance reminiscent of freshly mown grass. Toes feel cool grass or wet, wann sand. The mind is on the beach, hearing waves. Then it is lurking in summer shadows, or hiking up moun- tains, or relaxing on the side of a swimming pool, or lying between cool, white linens in the middle of a summer afternoon. Free from pres- sures and inhibitions, the mind wan- ders and delights in fantasies unat- tainable and in desires umpienchahle. Suddenly noises seem closer, and classroom thoughts begin to surface, while dreams are forced to submerge. Fingers again rub eyelids. Eyes strive to focus — to conform with the other eyes in the room — to achieve sup- posed reality. The world, to focused eyes and alerted brain, is a room full of students and studies. Unreal reality! Illusions sought by the dreamer. Elusions created by the dreamer. 18

cording to a poll taken by Colonnade, of approximately eighty-seven stu- dents eligible to vote, forty-four regis- tered and thirty-seven voted. There was a variety of reasons given by the students as to why all eighty-seven did not register and did not vote. Many said that they did not have time or that they did not care. Others were more specific: “because I don’t care what happens to the country just as long as it does not get taken over by communists”; “because it was raining and I didn’t want to walk in the rain.” According to the results of Election ‘76, the country looked to Carter for the leadership necessary to hold the nation together. COUNTRY COUNTS ON CARTER On election day, the high school is used as a voting precinct. Mrs. Donald Kite helps in checking whether the perspective voters have registered. 17
