Jj 1 ALMOUTH HIG JJ ( A Day In The Life ] D uring the 1985-86 school year we were witness to a great variety of events, some which were minor and some which were quite momentous. Certainty no one will forget the space shuttle diaster and the endless video replays of the explosion. We will, no doubt, hear more about the struggle of Blacks in South Africa and hopefully there will be more summit meetings and progress on the control of nuclear weapons. Whenever there is a storm warning and the wind bends the trees we will remember hurricane Gloria and how she brushed by us at the last minute. We will remember the feelings of pressure as the end of our Senior year loomed ahead. What do we do with our lives? The service? A job? College? (Four years at some colleges costs almost as much as our parents ' house cost not too long ago!) The big events are not likely to fade from our memories - but what about the little things? We will al- ways remember our best friends and the special times which we shared ... but what about the day-to- day routine at school ! In the following lb pages, the yearbook photographers have attempted, over the span of 18 hours on Friday, January 17th, to give us a glimpse and to provide us with a record of what it was like to be a student at Falmouth High on a fairly ordinary day.
