DISCOVER NEW WORLDS One of the most exciting parts of being young was that many experiences were new. Every time a person encountered one of these events he could count on surprise, wonder ' and a sense of exhilaration. The new worlds discovered by Lancers varied from learning exciting facts in science classes, using watercolors and oils for the first time in art, and hands-on experiences and demonstrations in the industrial arts department. Whether working alone or in conjunction with others, there was always an aura of hard work and perseverance which as much as guaranteed that each discovery would be appreciated and retained. One of the greatest realizations that people found was that no mat- ter what the task, it could be accomplished with skill and grace. 1. Perspective and proportion were essential ingredients as Alyssa O ' Neill critiqued the art at the Lakewood Mall. 2 Kicking back and being surprised at the same time, Sean Mclntyre was ready to do his best in Newport s water polo tournament. 3.

IT ' S A BLAST Meeting the grueling demands of daily life could be overwhelming to both the students and the faculty without a little time out for some fun. Although most of the energies were directed toward writing term papers, studying for exams, doing homework assignment or, for some, taking college en- trance exams, Lancers still had the time to find the good times to spend with friends, doing the things that they most enjoyed. In- novative and inventive students peformed a variety of pranks and stunts aimed at mak- ing their friends crack up. Teachers got into the act too; going all out to combine laughter with learning seemed to be the most effective method of education. In any event, it was a blast to be part of such a wild and crazy bunch. Good times were turned into great times by fun-loving Lancers. 1 While some football players had visions of sugarplums.
