The junior high classes were ro be separore from rhe high school classes. This was accomplished by adding on addirional class ro rhe junior high schedules. Now, while rhe high school srudenrs go ro six 55 minure go ro seven 40 minure classes. The origi- nal confusion of rhe new separarion of classes subsided afrer a rourine had been esrablished. --« — Laura Sommeringer Prices Reach A New High Inflarion is no doubr a very popular word rhese days. No marrer where you rurn, rising prices are rhere begging more money from your waller. Every rrip ro rhe grocery srore shows rhar food prices conrinued ro rise. As far as rrans- porrarion is concerned, wirh gasoline priced over a dollar a gallon, people rurn ro riding bicycles or even jogging. When ir came ro purchasing a home in Janu- ary, one could expecr ro pay up ro 13 ' 2% inreresr rare, an increase over losr year ' s 9% inreresr rare. Inflarion has also upped rhe price of a school lunch ro 55 t, and a milk is now 6d. Teachers musr also pay more for rheir lunches. Wirh rhe rising prices, employees musr ask for big- ger allowances ro make rheir ends meer. v ■=«■ Kim Sinn ™ydj6 ' ' o6oy° World News Events The world welcomed rhe new dec- ode in a srare of rurmoil. Smiles, such as rhar of rhe Hairian above, were abun- danr in some places, bur orhers were rormenred wirh unresr. Miliranr srudenrs in Iran were holding 50 Americans hos- rage. Sovier rroops invaded Afghanisran, posing a serious rhrear ro world peace. The invasion also broughr up rhe ques- rion of U.S. parriciparion in rhe Olympics. If King Midas were alive roday, he could have really made a haul. The price of gold soared above $600 an ounce, sending rhe inflarion rare inro orbir. These worsening condirions for all provided a challenging beginning for rhe new year. — Laura Sammeringer

When I firsr walked rhrough rhe doors, I was scared half ro dearh. Bur as rhe day wenr on, every- rhing seemed ro get berrer. The kids ar Leo seem super nice, and rhey even came up ro talk ro me. I rhink rhar if I would be going from Leo ro New Haven, rhings would have been a lor scarier, because rhere ' s abour 500 more kids rhere. Ir really surprised me ro see how many people Leo had, bur I guess rhar was jusr because I was scared. Bur when I wenr ro rhe assembly in rhe gym I sow rhar Leo was as small as everybody hod rold me. The sporrs here also seem good. I mean, I come from a school rhar would be happy ro win any game. Then see- ing in rhe paper rhor Leo ' s foorboll ream is ranked 10rh in rhe srare in rhe Class A rarings, rhar ' s really decenr! Also, rhe spirir ar rhis school is really unbelievable. Everybody wanrs his school ro nor jusr look good and ro win by 1 or 2 poinrs, bur ro win by 20 poinrs or more. And rhey seem disoppoinred if rhey don ' rl If New Haven would lose by a respecrable mark, rhe fans wenr home happy. So I would say rhor my firsr day here ended up being good because rhe kids really seemed nice and seemed ro ac- cepr my sisrer and me. I rhink I will like coming ro Leo a lor, if ir goes as well as rhe firsr day did. Too bad all rhe days don ' r end ar 1100, rhough. — sophomore Rod Sinn (commenring on his firsr impressions os o Transfer srudenr)
