As juniors, and being the only other class to move from the old Cox, the juniors hope to carry out the old traditions, handing them ■ down to other classes following them. It is with the juniors and the seniors that the memories of the old school are held, a small school with class and character. Therefore, it has been the general feeling of hope between these two classes that the new school will hold just as much pride and character as did the old. The sophomores and freshmen both started their first year of high school in a rather overwhelming building, sophomore Liz Jones stated. Starting off in a high school is a lot different than junior high, freshman Meg Dobson replied. Being sophomores and freshmen, the two classes are usually looked down on by the seniors and juniors as inferior, but in reality they contribute a great deal to a great sch ool. Therefore, in starting off a new year in a new school, Cox High looks forward with GREAT EXPECTATIONS, that a big move and an increase in people will not change the character of our school but add to it. Remember, that in our goals, activities, and contests, THE SKY IS THE LIMIT, to what we as a school starting over can do.

Tests, projects, and homework that followed were not exactly as fun as the weekend which was of great innpor- tance. Of course everyone could be seen at the beach. The usual spot was 83rd street, but for the cool surfer dude the spot was elsewhere. The break is awesonne at the pier and at 43rd street, replied Charlie Parker. But the beach was not the common place during the winter. Some people suddenly found themselves working at the legendary Westminister-Canterbury and other part time jobs. The pay is great, remarked Tim Spillane. Kathy Powers remarked, Our chicken is ummm-ummm good. Pollards was another famous restaurant where students worked. The life you lead in high school will never happen again. It is a one in a lifetime chance, said Tracy Gregory, You should make it special. Planning, studying, playing, and of course working together with friends makes it all worth- while. Around Halloween you can find many peo- ple dressing up as different things.
