Reality was almost taken out of existence this past year for Tech. Declining enrollment was the thorn in the sides that almost closed the school. Some students seem to take education as a joke, therefore empty classrooms are becoming more common every year. The de- clining enrollment this year may have been caused by rumors that have leaked out last spring, during the School Board meetings con- cerning what would become of Tech. On the better side of things, plans have been made on blue- prints for a new addition to be built on the back of the school. Hope- fully for the continuing future of Tech, these plans will go into ef- fect. Only the future knows what lies ahead for Tech. Bulldozers can take away the building, but they can never erase the memories, that linger in the minds of the loyal Tigers. BUSING

TABLED AGAIN ... Students city-wide are taking ad- vantage of our many shops. They are realizing that Tech ' s shop pro- gram is the best in the city. Indus- trial education is proving to be more popular than general educa- tion every year. This is proved by the busing system. Students have come as far as Highland to take part in these classes. This busing program may be a sign of luck for the decreasing enrollment. 5
