Those Days ... School was filled with many ups and downs. Some days went by without anything drastic happening. How- ever, there were always those days when everything seemed to go wrong. Some days drug right along behind our own heels. We all knew sooner or later that there was possi- bly some excitement coming in the not too far distant future. There was almost always a pep rally, an assem- bly or some special feature to bail us out of class. The most important principle was that no matter how the days went we always had our friends and our classmates to pull us through and to celebrate. The average school day was filled with many decisions; Jay Mackenheimer, confers with his guidance counselor. A comfortable place to sit was finally found by sophomore Stephanie Washburn who would rather forget about all of those days spent on crutches. After the main course came ice cream for De- bra Cook. The ice cream bar sold french fries, sandwiches, biscuits, milk and orange juice along with various types of ice cream. Student Life 27

SUP atypia Seven minutes between classes was some- times insufficient; Cheryl Edwards seemed to have some question about the books for her next class. As many times before, Mark Shell and Christy Constable avoided those dreaded Monday hamburgers by spending their lunch time in the halls. Something was in the air that brought smiles and laughter to these students; it must have been the combined sense of humors. 26 Student Life
