 I love the people 1 work with — we help each other with our jobs. Many of our fellow students are employed at McDonald’s, Burger King, or White Castle. Those jobs are not very interesting. What follows are very exciting and interesting jobs which many of us might find desir- able. Claudine Maas, a junior, works at Work the exclusive George Washington Manor Restaurant. She is a hostess and cashier and really enjoys working there. Claudine works on weekends so her job does not interfere with her grades. Another responsible student, se- nior Greg Sholl, works at Video Guest. His boss thinks he is very responsible and allows Greg to watch the shop. He does everything from being a cashier to handling tapes. A junior, Diane Boehmler, is em- ployed by her father. She types data into a computer. Large corporations are now using computers so after high school Diane may be employed by a large corporation. A very unusual job | Debbie Alexio, a senior.

It was like most pep rallies: cheering, screaming, and all the other festivi- ties, including the “tastes great - less filling!” cheer from the freshmen. Eddie Marshall, a junior who re- fers to himself as “Mr. Sociality,” commented, “I personally believe that this year’s pep rally lacked the “pep!” “I really enjoyed the pep rally be- cause it was fun and the team had a lot of enthusiasm,” said freshman Leda Acemoglu. Pep Rally ’88 put the spirit back into “Hicksville.” - Dave Sacrestano “Let’s go . . . Get psyched . . . Let’s go . . . DY- NAMITE , roars Kim Hetner with the varsity cheerleaders at the Pep Rally. I
