day after Thanksgiving. -Assemblies were re-introduced with more vigor than ever. tMs. Berry even had to kiss a pigll -Student faculty committees were set up to deal with specific phenomina fsuch as l'The luke Box Committee. l With greater privileges came greater responsibilities. Mr. Morris contended that students knew the rules and should accept the consequences of breaking the rules. Offenders were punished for offenses. At first, the new rule system seemed strict, but it proved itself consistent and fair. As Mr. Crisp stated, 'lThere's no more Mickey Mouse. The role of administration took on a completely different image. Mr. Morris and Mr. Crume daily encouraged the student body over the intercom, praising students for accomplishments and reaffirming them after defeats. Mr. Mor- ris led the cheering section at almost ev- ery ballgame. All three always cooperated with each other and students for the good of the school, Holly Haight commented, ul don't feel inhibited when l go to the of- fice anymoref' lim Crisp stated 'This year at this school is undoubtedly the best year I've ever taught.

Jim ond John Webster defines popularity as llthe quality of being commonly liked or ap- proved. Popular people, therefore, must have special qualities which make them so well-liked. DC's student body chose lim Wells and lahn Oldham as 1981-82 Mr. and Miss Echoes. Echoes set out to find those qualities lim and lahn share which make them popular people. Both lim and lahn lead active school lives. lim's years at DC have been domi- nated by football which he played all four years. In addition he has run track and weightlifted for DC. lahn is excep- tionally school-oriented. As a senior she is captain of the swim team, Student Council Vice-president, a Key Club member, captain of the cheerleaders, Powderpuff football quarterback, and football Homecoming Queen. Barb Si- mon says, UAt school, lahn's behind ev- erything. Both lim and lahn are also athletically active outside of school. lim plays P racquetball and works out at the spa, hunts, and rides horseback. lahn enjoys waterskiing, snow skiing, and dancing. The most important characteristic lim and lahn share is a friendly personality. loAnn Liston says of lahn, uShe'll try to be a good friend. lodie Royal adds, lahn is fun, full of ideas, and always ready to have a good time . . . and al- ways has a date. lt is the common con- sensus that everyone likes lim Wells. Susen Lambert says, Ulim is friendly, he gets along with everybody. Though he works at the Swiss Deli Plaza and the fertilizer company that his father owns, he always saves time for his friends. The prescription for popularity thus might read, 'lGet involved in your school, get involved in a sport, and de- velop a friendly personality. Following such a prescription might not bring a person instant popularity but certainly should bring happiness, do you doubt? Look at lim Wells and lahn Oldham. tsl 6!Mr and Miss Echoes P'
