Freshman Officers Anticipate Great Years The freshman officers anticipate more dances, more ac- tivities and a great Prom in future years. The president. Charles Downey will again lead the class of 88 during the 1985-86 school year. I want to have more activities next year to help the class. I want to involve the whole class, Downey said. Initiating the beginning of the activities, the Freshman of- ficers have planned a dance for the seniors on May 24. 1985. I hope the dance is a big success so our class can get a head start on raising money for Prom, Joanie Menotti. secretary, said. Vice president Darrin Samuel has optimistic hopes for the class of 88.

Robert Wildef, Jennitef Williams Dawn Fish Need Gas Money, Too Finding a ride to and from school can become a problem for many freshmen. While upper classmen are zooming by in their new cars, freshmen are trying to find a reliable ride each day. First there is the lucky fish who has an older brother or sister who drives to school. Some may even have a friendly neighbor or a close friend who drives. If he does not live too far away, it may be convenient for him to walk to school, if the weather is permissible. If not, it is wise to have another ride in mind. Then there is always Mom or Dad who can give you a lift on their way to work. Even though this may not be the most popular way, it is better than walking. The not so lucky one may have to ride the bus. Many freshmen may not like to ride the bus to school; however, it is a sure, safe ride each day. It is also a good way to meet new friends. Besides, you never have to worry about someone turning around and saying Hey, who ' s pitching in for gas?
