During assemblies they even had music in there, and movies. Maybe your bus arrived early, or you had to catch an early ride to keep from walking. No matter what the reason was, students shuffled into the cafeteria as early as 7:15. Some to catch up on homework not quite finished the night before, or to study for a test. Some just to pass the time or eat the cafeteria's breakfast of hot rolls or toast. Nostalgic movies and music concerts by A Cappella and the Stage Band entertained students during the 9:40 assembly period. Student Council had its meetings sometimes in the cafeteria when the A-V room was not available. STEP test results were given in the lunchroom and SAT and ACT tests were taken there.

Once we got out, we waited in long lines, l only to have the AISD balanced lunch face us. While eating the meat patty and gravy, fluffy mashed potatoes and the all time favorite, corn, we ducked and dodged green beans tossed by talented underclassmen. At night, the cafeteria was used for concerts and banquets for clubs like FFA. Weekends, squaredancing music echoed through the halls with a promenade right amplified in rhythm. Although we tried to make believe that the cafeteria was boring and unexciting we spent a large portion of our school social time there. its best to give students a hot meal before starting out the day.

Y. lf L With a look of concentration, Debbie McCollum Buster Segura performs a graceful backwards practices a routine with her Modern Dance edge at Playland Skating Rink. Buster spent CIBSS. hours and hours of practice preparing for nationals. aybe they started out trying to lose excess pounds, trim down the figure, firm up thethighs, or just to achieve a feeling of masculinity. But exercise offered more. It relaxed the body and refreshed the mind. Kim Cruickshank and Boni Kelso cycled down the Pease Park Hike and Bike Trail, toning up leg muscles. Mark Klaus unicycled himself into maintaining a sense of balance on his one wheeler. Like many other girls, Sandi Tripp, Lois Betcher, Laura Sargologos, and Patti Brownlee leaped and vaulted their way into the ever popular female sport of gymnastics. Watching the Olympics and other people doing cartwheels turned Julie Vanek on to gymnastics. 'tl wouldn't encourage anyone to join gymnastics unless they're coordinated. lt's knowing you're good at it that makes the sport enjoyable, l-lundreds of Lanier students rolled on wheels at Playland and Skating Bink after a night at Dessau or just to enjoy the company of friends. Taking the initiative ot his God-given talent, Buster Segura wheeled his way into ranking among the top ten of competitive roller skaters in the nation. ln competitive roller skating, you learn to control your nerves. You get the experience of competing with others who have the same goal in mind as you do. Karate, Judo, and Kung Fu teach the competitor more than the art of self defense. Through instructions from the Texas Tae Kwon Do and other related Oriental art institutes, Bocky l-lardie, Jerome Scott and Mike Schotz mastered the necessary skills or serious concentration and alertness. Whether they paced through Northwest Park, trotted around the school track, or cantered along self made neighborhood trails, Mike Cowie, Ruby Segura, Don Davis and Theresa Gage jogged regularly to keep their body in shape. Exercising religiously, Mark Billingsley jogged to keep fit. t'l consider jogging physical therapy, your body's like one of the Lord's sacred temples. He expects you to keep it up and keep it in shape. With the right attitude, interested people enjoy exercising. Like life, you get out ot exercise what you put into it. exercise 97
