JJlomj JWctos Lanita Watkins Larence Wright Carlas Fuches Randall Kidd ome students at DHS have already become a part of the working world. Earning your own money just gives one a feeling of responsibility. This way, one feels better about spending it they way he wants. It’s been said that all bosses are alike; tough and just wanting to get the job done right. Well, this is not true as proved by Mr. Larry Martin, Manager of Ster- ling's 50 and 100. Mr. Martin has a policy which he has gone by for the 13 years he has been hiring stu- dent workers. He feels that students should realize their responsibility as a worker but also maintain a passing school grade. He feels that if a student's job is hindering him from school work, he will either shorten their hours or lay them off until their grades improve. Seems to be a logical way to deal with this sort of prob- lem as Mr. Martin proves. Fortunately, I have had no case where the grades haven’t been brought up after their hours have been shortened.” So you see, all bosses are not alike. When you go looking for a job, just remember to take a smile, a will to work, and your best report cards. 26 Money Matters

 ound V KOurid , 1 round square? Impossible! Not only is it possible, but it exists right here in DeWitt. Vying with the River as the most popular gathering place, the Square” comes out on top. It has no seasons; it's popu laryear round. Looking like the typical town square with the Courthouse in the middle, the DeWitt Square” has a one way traffic flow. Although many stores and businesses surround the edge, the Square” sees many of its busiest hours after 5:30 p.m. It's tradition to go ride around the Square,” remarked junior Becky Stephens. “I like to go see who’s up there — you know everybody in town will be there,” stated Lisa Childers. To an unassuming stranger, the Square looks like an Indy 500 — in slow motion. He soon learns that if he waits for the cars to pause to allow him to enter, his wait is inter minable. The best thing he can do is find a spot he likes and ease on in. And for the rest of us local folks — see 'ya Saturday night! 28 Round 'n Round
