His feelings were different now. At the beginning of the year he wanted to speed through not even staying long enough to have fun. His friendships made the difference between past and present. As he thought back to his junior year, he rennembered the prom where he and his date along with many other juniors and seniors enjoyed A Summer Place. Not long after that his class marched to the front of the middle section of the auditorium taking the place of the Class of ' 75 as they assembled on stage to share a song, throw carnations (class flower) to the audience, and cry over leaving. Their senior play, I Never Saw Another Butterfly, had received a standing ovation on all three performances. He hoped his class play, A Portrait of Jennie, would do as well.

As the United States sent Kissenger all over the world to negotiate peace, in Laurel Parks small world two girls were sent to Girls ' State at Long- wood College, cheerleaders to camp at Randolph- Macon, KOINE staff members to Delmars Year- book Workshop at Longwood College, and the Physical Fitness team to Philadelphia All looked for a better way Many Americans needed a better way because of the recession Gas prices had stabilized at fifty-two cents for regular But sugar prices became too sweet for some at $3.50 for five pounds, and they began looking for substitutes. President Ford also found substitutes for cabinet members Schlesinger and Cobly — Rumsfield and Bush. Laurel Park made only one substitution but added seven teachers and two student teachers, Mr. R. T. Morris and Ms Louise Early. But this wasn ' t the long and short of things. In fact, the long of things turned out to be in fashion Skirts were back below the knee. The Trend was neck scarves, midi skirts and dresses, platforms, and the number one — blue jeans. The short of things turned out to be curly hair — for white stu- dents this time who needed chemical help to keep their hair in curls. But more popular than fashions and hair styles were Fonzie of Happy Days, the Waltons, and Rich Man, Poor Man; Ann Landers column, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Main- tenance, and Helter-Skelter.
