Seniors Recall ‘Good Old Days’ Elementary also known as “Mclntrash.”’ During recess the guys played dodge- ball and the girls played on the mon- keybars. Joe Bellinger gave a “Skywatch’’ report during some part of each day. And John Reesman had a new girlfriend every day. A few more seniors were McKenney “Bulldogs.” Everyone had to taste everything on their plates at lunch. This school had a pierced earring club. In kindergarten, every time anyone wore new clothes, they got to stand up on their chair and model them. Last, but not least, the rest of the 4985 seniors either attended Ashley- Fairfield or moved from another dis- trict. Here, Diane Sanders beat up on all the guys. All the guys and girls went out behind the school building during recess and usually wound up in trouble. Ashley claims they never lost to Auburn or Waterloo during basketball season and Eric Buckmaster dated. Val Link in the sixth grade. Those were the’ ‘good old days.” .

Things sure were simpler in those days. The biggest thing we ever had to wor- ry about was who got the good swings during recess. At East Auburn, life was typical of any school. Eric Patton and Heather Kneubuhles got married. Instead of go- ing out to recess during sixth grade, kids stayed ins“e and played cards with Mr. Yarde. iit sometimes kids got scared of Mr. Ycrde when he picked LOOKING BACK: Jim Finchum up by the ears. : For those who attended Wajerloo, everybody married everybody. Cindy Goodwin seemed to marry Eric “Shrieky’” Rowe at the beginning of each week and divorce him by the end of the week. Kids also played spin the cone at the skating rink. Everyone envied Shawn Maple because Tracy Pineiro had her name written all over his shoes. Janet Pfefferkorn and Matt Hodges began their status as the lead- ing couple. Some people attended Mcintosh

It was a great way to get out of the same old monotony of the day’s schedule and added a little more in- terest on our way to classes. As the end of each week neared,
