Strict police standards kept many kids away from the traditional hangouts. Schcrcvillc police were called in to keep students from loitering Nkk Rad ft n Enforcement causes hangout changes C hange! The first thing that comes to mind is hangouts. No 1 o n g e does Pizza Hut or Wendy ' s dic¬ tate where students go after games. The tradition¬ al hangout for years had practi¬ cally been banned. After some strict police enforcement, stu¬ dents relocated local hangouts to include McDonalds, Aurel- lios, and Smitty ' s Pow Wow. Meeting at McDonald ' s seemed to be the place to find out what was happening. While idle chatter of a party grew, stu¬ dents disbanned from the park¬ ing lot on their way to various parties. Every public place the stu¬ dents went, the police seemed to be one step behind them. Pete Lazic said, “People would usu¬ ally throw a party to give the rest of the students somewhere to hang out because of strict po¬ lice enforcement at the hang¬ outs.” Even after an invitation to the Pow Wow, students who were loitering were thrown out. At the traditional hangouts, the majority of students who were at the game showed up. Now, students seemed to be scattered. Some stu¬ dents traveled to other towns to hangout with students from Highland and Munster. Sha- key ' s in Highland seemed to be the local gathering for the three schools. Stardust Bowl was also another place for students to gather to play video games, bowl, and catch up on local news. If there was one mention of a party, during school in sec¬ ond hour, by third hour every¬ one was going to it. Those quiet parties that leaked out at the gathering places brought stu¬ dents who were scattered back together to one meeting place. As good weather came around, many students found themselves doing other things. Some went to Chicago, while others hung out at the dairy queen or the beach. by—Nick Radjen “I went to the Auto show and felt like driving off.” (fordan hetich V k RaJ tn 26 Hangouts
