Student Life Nowhere in a school is the presence of the students more keenly evident than in the hallways. Signs cheering the team on to victory before a game, decorations appropriate to the season, posters heralding the coming of dances, skating parties, and plays--each of these represents a phase of the social life of the student. The halls are where friends are made and news is exchanged and plans are formed. Every fad, every fashion innovation, every current say¬ ing finds its way into the halls of a high school. Many wonderful memories begin in the halls --the center of student life. This engaging character brought a smile to everyone in the midst of growing enthusiasm at the pep session before the Sectional game. Phil Govert and Shirley Hoover model attractive examples of a current fad-going-steady sweaters. Dave Tatro, Dick Rakoczy, and Rich Holmes seem to be hav¬ ing a lively after-school debate.

Noon Brings Midday Breather Noon hour- a time to get together with friends, dance in the gym, play basketball, have a Coke. The noon hour offers temporary respite from the world of book reports, tests, term papers, and homework -just enough time to relax and . . . then off to class again. Playing basketball in the gym during the noon hour is preferred to eating by some. Eileen Staniszeski, Marsha Niemeyer, and Dianne Pawlowski sample their lunches en route to the cokebar.
