It would take more than Coast Deodorant soap to bring Maureen Brennan back to life. Noreen Kelly assists her. Workday changes to walkday H O MORE WORK DAYS??!! was the confused rumor spreading throughout the school in early October. Rumor became fact when Mr. Weniger called a special meeting to explain to the students this year's new student rund-raiser. A ten mile Walkathon was decided upon because it was potentially more profitable than the traditional Work-day. Each student was expected to collect at least 320.00 in pledges for the walk, compared to last year's 35.00-357.00 for raking leaves or washing windows. For some kids, asking for pledges seemed to be harder than the walk itself. However, Kim Mayberry, who collected 833100, and Kathy Marren, who collected S16450, took it all in stride. On Friday morning, October 19th, everyone came prepared for the long journey with sweat suits, running shoes, transistor radios and other assorted necessities Members of the cross country team, including Matt Probst, jim Zuba, and Bill Charvat, ran the entire 10 miles, as did senior girls Kathy Devereux and Molly Butler. The majority of students finished within about 3 hours, depending on whether or not they stopped along the way for goodies at Spud-Nuts, White Hen or Mr. Gee's. Upon completing the walk, their cards were stamped Congratulations by Mrs. Richards and Mrs. Danca in front of school. Betty Sugrue, a junior, summed it all up when she said, It was a challenge to walk 10 miles. I'm glad I'm finished. Now, I want to go home and soak my feet!
