saga of survival not just the completion of a hard- fought battle . .. but a con- tinual movement into the future. With the future in mind, changes were still being made by the end of the school year. New tennis courts had been approved by the school board, as well as a new journalism room and darkroom. Spring training consisted of more athletes than ever before. And Mr. Leon Hagmann resigned his job as principal after ten years of service. Yes, the school year had quickly and quietly slipped away, but the memories that survived still linger, though in slow-motion joyous moments, sad moments . . . some dis- tinct, some misty and vague . . . but all a part ofthe past. The senior class song, The Best of Times by Styx, best described it in saying, Our memories of yesterday will last a life- time. We'll take the best, forget the .iraq rest, and someday we'll find . . . these are the best of times. Senior Kenney Oatman helps dress junior Robb White, who gives the student body the campaign yawn that won him the student council presidency. Principal Leon Hagmann fashions his new quartz watch presented to him at the end of the year by the teachers, in appreciation for his ten years of service.

GULUPHUINL Cover: Photograph by Wayne Trimble. Originally shot in black-and-white on Tri- X 400 film, the picture was taken of a buf- falo calf at the International Wildlife Park in Grand Prairie. Once the negatives were developed, a photographic process called posterization was used. The original black- and-white negative was exposed on high- contrast transparency paper called Kodal- ith Ortho Film Type 5, in three separate exposures detailing the highlights, mid- tones, and darks. Contact sheets were then made on the same type ortho, producing negative transparencies. Placing the high- light positive with the midtone negative, the midtone positive with the dark nega- tive, and the dark positive by itself, was the next step. Then the first set of ortho was placed in a specially made registration board, and photographed on 25 ASA color slide film. The camera was set on a tripod and a triple exposure was taken, in an area that was totally dark, of each set of ortho. The ortho was illuminated by a flash unit, providing separate colors for each set of ortho, first a yellow filter, then red, then blue. Once the triple exposure was taken, the slides were developed, and printed on Cibachrome paper. tall - Editor!
