Whether hanging out at your locker or at the local shopping mall, most everyone had a place to go. Usually, most students could be found around restaurants such as Giffords, Mr. Gatti’s, and other fast food places. Also, family amusement centers like Time Out were crowded with students ready to try their luck at challenging games like Space Invaders and Pac Man. On weekends the most popular new arrival was Uncle Sam’s, a restaurant and bar. But for those who wanted more peaceful and quiet surroundings, parks and movie theaters were also favorites. Overall, students had a wide variety of places to go on weekends and after hours. Enjoying a Saturday afternoon lunch at Sub- way are Karen Levin and Lori Hagen.

After school and on weekends, students could be found earning money as cashiers, hosts or hostesses, banktellers, and sales clerks. Popular places to work were Roy Rogers, McDonalds, Piz- za Hut, Fashion Factory, Woolco, Zayres, Ben Franklin, Drug Fair, and Peoples. Many students had unique jobs such as Teresa Boothe, Melinda Frostik, Cathy McGrail, and Karen Anderson who were models; Leslie Brown who taught dancing; and Sam Smith who worked in construction. Minimum wage was three dollars and thiry-five cents an hour, but worthy people collected more. Social Security and taxes seemed to take so much. Unfortunately, the wages didn’t stay in wallets for long. Gifts for others, personal lux- uries, food, and dates seemed to swallow the remaining earnings far to quickly. Budget conscious workers often managed to save for a car or college. All in all, the work was fun and proved to be an ex- cellent experience. Student Life 31
