Out Joi Iundv Students have 'favorite eating spots' at noon; they ignore the school's ban on leaving campus When noon rolled around, students moved at a frantic pace to get to their favorite eating spots.” Only one-half of an hour was given to students for lunch. Despite the short time for lunch, many students left campus to visit one of the fast food restaurants, such as McDonald's. Wendy's. Black Angus. Church's Chicken, etc. They left campus even though school policy indicated that they were not supposed to leave. The vast majority of students, however, remained on campus at lunch. Most of those who remained ate in either the cafeteria, which served full meals, or Campus Inn. which sold snack foods. Others brought sack lunches from home or walked across the street to a small candy store that also sold several types of sandwiches. One thing practically all students did at lunch was talk, talk, talk. Lunch is a great time to be with friends and make plans for the even- ing or just catch up on some of the gossip. senior Cynthia Robinson said. She said that everybody com- plains about the short lunch period, but it seems that nobody ever goes hungry.” A favorite food for many Central High students at noon was the quarter pounder hamburger from McDonald’s. Most students wanted cheese on it. Out to Lunch—25
