Indians work at unification This past year’s student enrollment of 1600 caused a major crisis in the hallways at LC. Jam up—jelly tight was an ex¬ pression which described the tight squeeze situation our halls had during the past year. Students were reporting late to classes because they found it hard to get through the crowded intersections. Things should begin to shape up next fall when the new wing opens and draws some of the students away from the packed halls. Colorful benches allowed students to sit and chat between classes and during lunch breaks. The Vocational Carpentry stu¬ dents built the benches, which cost $12 each. These benches were financed and given to the school by the Student Govern¬ ment Association. Juniors received their class rings in Septem¬ ber. Sophomores purchased class jerseys which were white with blue lettering. Various kinds of jackets and sweaters were wom to symbolize involvement in organizations and special achievements made by the students.

Lake Central’s energetic youth Being an LC student involves much preparation, time and energy. From the moment one’s alarm clock goes off in the early morning, until the final hells ring at 2:15, there are con¬ stant thoughts flashing through each student’s mind. A few of these thoughts concern clothes, homework, tests and activities. The new school day tended to insure that all students were in l)ed early for a 6 a.m. arrisal. Getting ready for school in the morning is about the hardest task a teen can accomplish. Wait¬ ing out in the brisk cold to catch a school bus was sure to awaken anyone. Once LCHS’ers are seated in their first hour seats, books are opened and studies begin. Scrambling through folders to find due assignments and finally realizing they were left at home can greatly disappoint a student. Tension over¬ comes students who begin last minute preparation for tests. Study halls allow students to sneak in a few lost minutes of sleep or complete homework-assignments. This one hour boost gives Indians more leisure time for activities. Personal pleasures vary with each student. Holding hands as couples walk to class, cracking a smile to a friend and receiving one in return fills a heart with warmth. Stopping between classes to chat with friends is a routine practiced daily by the youth at LC. A favorite noon hour pastime was stopping to watch construction progress on the new ' wing or fighting the mad rash for cold drinks, candy and ice cream at the Coke Bar. Being a part of todays establishment is giving of oneself as you have never l)efore thought possible. Freshman Danny Niloff, finding nothing better to do, sneaks in a few lost min utes of sleep while sitting in study hall. 6
