Power failure kee s campus in darkness ln this era, people are blessed with luxuries that they usually 'I -'iw '-P2-ur X. take for granted. Electricity is a good example. No one has a second thought about it until they don't have it. 1 There were a lot of people taking second thoughts about ll l na electricity one black day in November when a power failure left half of the south campus without lights. I l One of our two separate systems of electricity was shut I N' ' oft, said, Nlr. Homer Powell, assistant principal, when a power line was cut on Center Street. This accounted for some rooms having light and others not. In the event both systems l had failed, an emergency generator would have clicked on within 30 seconds. , For two periods, teachers without electricity crowded their classes into the lighted hallway, an empty neighboring class- room with electricity, or the cafeteria and mall area. Studies continued as usual, but the blackout did break the monotony of the regular school day. A. Coach Robert Dunivan moves his third period Algebra I class in to the lighted hallway and continues teaching as usual. B. Juniors Kathy Gunn, Terri Weatherford and Mike Wheat, members of Mrs. Flo Schell- ing's third period English Ill class, find it necessary to do their reading in the English office where there was lighting. C. Seniors David Kief- fer, Jerry Swatsell and David Mundy are not hindered by the lack of lighting elsewhere, do their classwork in the cafeteria. ri Emil' i 1 PAGE 288 1 CLASSES
