Not pictured: Michele McGregor, Gary Worster. Dawn until Duskn 9am Sleepy editors and staff pound on the school door on a Saturday morning. 10am Typewriters can be heard clacking. In the darkroom, buzzers going off and irate photographers cursing for the day they will see the sun again. 11am Copy, pictures, and layouts are floating around room 105 being checked by various editors. 12pm I'm hungry, grumble several staf- fers. Let's go for pizza! holler Hedssen and Paul. All right, agree Chris and Wendy. I'm for 7'Eleven, says Nichelle. Yeah, I can get my peppermint slurpee! l' interjects Leonard. I just want a coke and a Snickers bar, Mrs. Barrineau states finally. Miss Mitchell doesn't hear any of this as she is busy typing senior stats and mis- ses out. Wait, I don't have any money, Michele dejectedly says. Do you want to borrow a dollar? ask Gary and Tony simultaneously. Finally Carol looks up from her walkman and says, I'm hungry! Anyone for lunch? as all the staffers just laugh. 1pm The same old grind of copy, pic- tures, layouts, pencils, rulers, croppers, calculators and stylebooks. 2pm Photographers bring more newly de- veloped pictures. 3pm Mrs. Barrineau goes for a Coca-Cola run. 4pm Someone finally turns off the blar- ing music to some softer working tunes. 5pm Food run again. 6pm Work, work, work, and even more work. 7pm Still more work. 8pm Still even more work. Another batch of pictures. 9pm Leave the cleanup for tomorrow. says Karen. We'll be back. This is the mighty EQUUS staff, working from dawn until dusk. What is the EQUUS? It is the yearbook: it records the events and personalities . . . We just asked what the EQUUS was: we didn't ask for a narration. All right, you want to know what it is. Ready? Here it comes. This is a place where craziness runs ram- pant. You be yourself: you make new friends. You learn a skill by putting together a literary work. You must also like The Pretenders, Pat Benatar. judas Priest. Rush - shall we go on? Being able to play trashcan basketball can be helpful. You must either know the hunt and peck or the pick and punch methods of type- writing. Above all else, you must be able to have fun, but work, work, work. However, always remember. even though the yearbook staff acts crazy. the work we do can only be compared to that of the construction company that built the Empire State Building. - Michele McGregor Clubs 1 2 1

From 7:50 until 2:00, students saunter from class to class, learning everything from Shakespeare to laws of gravity. Yet, within the classes, more than book learning occurs. Friendships are formed through notes passed secretly as values are examined bv delv- ing into issues such as why capital punishment is allowed and why suicides occur. Day after day students grow and learn, about them- and their world. The learning isn't over at two as clubs meet to Q Wg Classes Divider 123 QQ
