Fun and frolic weaved Doing what comes naturally — luvin ' in the halls — don’t look under the stairs. Cats in German classes and buying lunch tickets . . . taking a napkin to chuckwagon steaks. Mustard graffiti on hot dog buns. Remember? Remembrances repose . . . anxiously waiting to be brought to light. “Teachers, please note number two on the daily bulletin. ” Students congregate at the newly located smoking porch. Particles that combine and intertwine. Magnetized or repelled by each other. Speeding along, totally emersed in activities of our own. So fast we can ' t or don’t remember. Taking no time to recognize the unrecognizables. Ordering a la carte. Class meetings . . . black and white together. Race is not as much a problem to students at LHS as to the people who see the students. Automatically passing into a new year, we forget the years before. 5
