But as the saying goes, all work and no play - well, you know how it goes. So the rest of us went out and had a good time, from partying to mountain climb- ing to playing dead. i Some of us really went out - almost 270 students . moved or traveled during that eventful summer. From Sumter to Saudi Arabia. in cars. planes, and boats. we scattered ourselves all i over the earth. Sports played an impor- tant part in many of our . lives. We spent our summers toning up our bodies for the long school year ahead. g Blowing, beating and t , banging their way to the pigskin field, band mem- bers rose early two weeks before school started to make halftime sparkle. New flag girls trucked out to school too, to 1 learn new formations. One day the band instructor from Camden High School showed the basics of learn- A ing to use the flag poles. Q Cheerleaders weren't idle either, as they prac- . ticed away long afternoons for perfection's sake. Val Croom, Ricky Dunn, Melissa Edeburn, Patty a Lockhart, and Debbie Peterson stayed at USC froml Iune 13-18 for a publica- tion workshop. As early morning light spread over the campus, the students could be seen hassling over layouts. 4

,,, .W A Why anyone would con- sent to stand in a droopy sheet, wear a square cap and be devoured by kisses from over-anxious parents, I don't know. I guess you call it insanity - commonly known as graduation. It happens every year in May. There were 314 of us this year, coming around the bend from Senior Cut Day. Graduation culminates after four years of worry- ing, sweating, agonizing la little goofing offl, and determination. Of course, the exercises themselves provoked mixed emotions- amazement fIgraduated?1, sadness, and inexplicable i0y! Walking up onto the platform on the football field, I reach nervously for a little white scroll. IBe careful, mister-that's my life therell Twenty flash cubes go off, and, temporarily blinded, I stumble off into the wings lthe other side of the fieldl What next? That depended on whether you had managed to somehow drag your sleepy brain down to school to take the P.S.A.T. and S.A.T. tests for college entrance back- ground. Of course, there were those ambitious people who had already lined up jobs- some even married. It was kind of funny to think about leaving all my friends now, but there were a lot of new possibilities to look forward to. So, with ten junior mar- shals assisting us, par- ents supporting us, and dreams sustaining us, we graduated. lThat means me! Hi, there!
