THE I. P 1974. THE YEAR. The year of . . . what? Styles! ANY- THING goes! Long hair or short, faded blue jeans or palazzo pants, high heels or low, wire rims or contact lenses, grubby or formal . . . for girls AND guys! New morality! One person's morals are just as good as the other'sg it depends on who YOU are. Limited fuel, pa- per, and energy. Maybe the se limitations are waking people up, showing everybody how good we've ha d it. 1974. THE YEAR. Not only in the outside world, but here at G.E.T. , too. Victories and defeats, both per- sonal and a c a d e mic, games, dances, organizational meetings, and homework. A new soa p ope ra was ever-present over the summer months--Watergate. It was the ne ve r e nding saga of men and their trek for power. G.E.T. had its own ver- sion of Watergate. It was the saga ofthe administration and faculty and their trek for power--with the empha- sis on discipline. To get rid of any leaks and bugs, they terminated senior p ri vi le ge s, physical contact, and eating in the halls. And just for good measure, paren-. tal permission was needed for station breaks. As a result, the high cost of living went up. If a stu- dent was found guilty of the forementioned crimes, the consequence was detention, suspension, or expulsion, depending on the nature and degree of t.he crime. Monday. Mondays were terrible! H a vi n g to get up so early without having enough sle e p was the worst part. By Tuesday, signs for games and mixers were put up, reminding everyone of the coming weekend. Wednes- day was hump day. Thursday morning classes were usu- IGT BE B0 ally cut short because o f hom e room, and once in a while Fri day afternoon classes would be shortened be- cause of a pep rally. Slowly, but surely, Friday, 3:33 p.m. crept upo n the unknowing weekend. Then . . . LOOK OUT! ! ! Seventh hour teachers were practically run over in the mad rush for the door. Time wasn't wasted b e c a us e tim e was short. Students who had their driver's licenses and I.D. cards were off and b are ly se e n again until Monday morning, while those who wore boots made for walking and who still belonged to the Pepsi Generation tried to dig up some excitement in the near vicinity. No mat- ter how many liberties anyone had, all too soon it was Monday again. And so, another year has come and gone, not soon enough, and yet, too soon. They say these are the best years of our lives .. . maybe they are. But we don't k now that, we haven't lived to find out. Maybe as we grow older, we too, will realize that these really were the best years. The details may fade ,' but there will al- ways be t.he memories of old friends and good times. We on the yearbook staff have put this book together to help bring back the days when you were feeling silly, or sad, so you can re me mbe r the styles, so you can think back o n your own morals. The houis of studying, laughing, talking, and just plain living at G.E.T. are brought back in a small way through this book. We es- pecially had the se niors in mind because as far as t.hey're co nce med, this is . . . The Last Picture Book. Linda Nelson, Copy Editor l l 2
