Freshman Beth Bucsanyi soys. This is OREAD when rhe water pipes in her house burst. Bread. In fhe diaionary, bread is a food we use to ear with peanut buffer and jelly. However, rimes are chang- ing! Behind rhe walls of D.H.5., we gave ir a new sarcastic meaning. It is no longer used as a noun, but an adjective. During class, in the halls, and even on weekends bread was frequently heard. Ir was a descriptive word for people, a repetition of actions, or just plain old stupid things we did! Some of us plunged further into the meaning of bread, analyzing and creating new phrases. As each one of us added our own unique word, the list grew leaving behind stale, pop- tart, loaf, crumb, English muffins, yeast, croissant, and more. All of these words had their own meanings, some of which were in- side jokes. For instance, senior Scott Mader created the ever-popular phrase, Keep your pop-tarts in the package. Other phrases, such as sophomore Raymond Rodriquez ' s, I smell a loaf , and an unknown You ' re burning are now part of a strong growing vocabulary. Dread was used to describe things sarcastically but in a joking manner. It was used to describe some freshman behavior. Or, Being forced into a 4- A district, said senior Lisa Matocha. A weekend in the big town of Dickinson said junior Sheryl Buc- sanyi. House Bill 72 and homework on a Friday night, said sophomore Christie Allen. Nosey underclassmen trying to scald on upperclassmen, but in return get- ting laughed at, said senior Michele Martin. And one of our latest loafey actions, The Dickin- son Nine and their famous insult, the sit in! All of these and other words con be found in the cookbook of yeast, a historical memory. The people and events at DHS in the 1985-86 school year will always be remembered as IN- TENSE and BREAD.

Every day, rebellion is pre- sent. Resistant behavior is common in most teenagers and ranges from leaving the trays on the lunch tables to underclassmen leaving campus for lunch. One of the biggest problems this year was vandalism. Graffiti, mostly profanity, was everywhere. The bathrooms were a picture of disgust. Smoke that was thick as fog filled the air. The clocks in the hallways were broken as soon as they were fixed. Teachers monitored the hallways and bathrooms and even the park- ing lots but to no avail. The extremely obstinate students were going to continue whether they were punished or not. They had a one-track mind. Every day students were wrirten-up. Sometimes they got in trouble with more than one teacher. The workers in the attendance office dealt with those troublemaking students every day. With thirteen weeks left in the school year, the number of discipline write-ups exceeded the entire 1985- 86 school year. Breaking rules is rebellious. Sometimes students broke rules because they felt that the rules were unfair. Eating and drinking in the halls, wearing shorts, bringing radios, and showing affection were the most often broken rules. A lot happened to cause rebellious action. According to assistant principal Mickey Barlow, Discipline problems were due to a loss of parental influence. Senioritis was in the air. The weather was warm. The beach became an afternoon hangout. As the summer neared and the school year came to an end, the rebellion too ended, only to start again in the fall. The people and events at DHS in the 1985-86 school year will always be remembered as IN- TENSE, BREAD, and REBELLIOUS.
