FHS begins a spirited experiment in black and white When I found out that I would be attending Ferguson instead of Hun- tington High, it surprised me, but I thought of it as typical. I referred to it as typical because of the fact that Black students could not receive as many benefits as White schools without integration. Butlcansaythatbeingamong White students has been an experi- ence. I haven ' t decided what kind yet. As a student, I started out a little shaky, but after a period of getting everything together, I find myself able to work well with Black and Whites and to understand the ideas and ways of each.

Understanding both sides bridges Black-White relation gap Before this school year began I was very pessimistic about its outcome, and my attitude was that of a spoiled child who had lost his only toy. But then I began to look ahead and to think of the advantages of busing; in only 12 weeks I have gained many meaningful friendships. I have been exposed to a more realistic way of living together — Black and White. Personally, my grades have dropped drastically and I ' m not showing any type of spirit. I ' m in nothing but I.C.T. because I ' m just not interested in anything right now, but maybe later everything will be better. 72 class president Linda Kliewer, barely es- caping a surprise bath, heads for safety. Life ' s confusing; so is art, thinks Patti Maus- teller as she peeks at another ' s work. Masses of raised hands and off-key voices proclaim Ferguson number one in football. Graphic wall murals fascinate Daniel Slade on one of the entry halls to an art class. 5
