Sf, a 'Q rr refs, gg t V X tr idx il su? EDGEWOOD HIGH SCHC The Changing Student and A By Martha Lindner Just b efore January 15, many students at Edgewood w ere talking about the Sen- ior Ditch Day' that was to be heldthat day. No one knows who started it, btt the rumor was spread from m o u t h to mouth and by passing papers out announc- ing the event. When th e d a y arrived, more than 200 Seniors were absent. As one walked down the halls and looked into the variousclass rooms, he saw many that had only 6 or 7 students. Was ditchingschool on this dayall rightor was it a ter' rible sin. The employees in the at' tendance office feel unau- thorized ditching isn't fair. M a n y students were work- ing in the attendance office during brunch a nd getting permission to st a V out o o t h e r classes so they could help straighten out the hor' rible mess of having to file and alphapetize so m any students.

Mother wanted her son to go to the mountains, as she remem- bered the days he had ditched, but he preferred to stay at home, putting up screens. Another student ditched only half a day,so the people in attendance were debating whether to give her half a cut. A11 the students that ditched seemed to have en- joyed themselves thoroughly, and after all, isn't it fun to be naughty once in a while? By Pam Marx EHS students ha ve seen revolutionary changes in dress standards in the last four y e a r s - - -both girl and guy grooming regulations. Only two years ago girls w e re fighting a three -inch limit on skirt lengths. Now not only is there no limit on the shortness of a skir t, as lon g, of course, as it is in good taste,but the maxi has comeinto vogue. Girls, who only last year swore never to
