Life is but a minute, life is forever. Living, hoping, crying, and dying are but one part of life. For each new day there is a new life. Mine is but one in billions; mine is a new life, mine is old. I laugh on the outside and cry out for help inside. Come near me I will back up and at the same time side; I cry for you to hold me close. I carry a glass case around me, it saves me from pain and deprives me of love. I have lived, hoped, and cried. Now I have only one part of life to go: which is to die. For years or hours I will wait. — Mona Maples PAGE 13: TOP: The blue water cascading over the dam, with Lover’s Leap looming in the background, has become an object of beauty and pleasure for the community.

Catching the Light The water must go on, slipping over the dam, catch- ing the light as it lingers. We tried to hold special moments, but even with their scarcity, they dim with time. Giving up a crown and gaining one, smiling or giving laughter, and saluting our Eagle Pride fostered more memories. In the lake of recollection, some moments escaped, but they depart slowly and softly. PAGE 12: TOP RIGHT: Keeping his Tin Lizzie ready for action.

Each of Us, A Specialist School represented many activities for us. We retained our district title in football, while in other sports we continued to succeed also. The brightly painted rooms and cheery atti- tudes of fellow students transformed the aca- demic atmosphere. In speech and writing events, the one-act play, and band, we partici- pated and received awards. Those of us who led active lives outside of school benefited too, training for the jobs of full-fledged citi- zens. We all enjoyed lunch, the time to unwind and visit with friends we rarely saw during the day. Each of us, a specialist in doing our thing, joined to make an outstand- ing high school.
