J—ife After 3:OQ Homework: Every Night Fright Homework (hom’wurk). 1. Work done at home. 2. Lessons to be studied or school work to be done outside the classroom. Perhaps the one unchanging factor in high school life is homework. Everyone has it at one time or another. Of course, those in physics can expect more homework than those in Foods I. Outside the classroom does not necessarily mean at home. It often means fourth hour homework being done in third hour, which makes more homework for that night because of the time missed in third hour. Outside the classroom is also on the lawn outside the school, on the benches, or in the lounge. Homework sometimes doesn’t get done at all. Many students have good intentions of getting up early in the morning to finish lessons so they can watch T.V. at night. Regrettably, it doesn’t often get done. Every morning can be heard the familiar cry, “I didn’t do my homework last night. What am I going to tell the teacher?” And the things they tell the teachers! Mrs. Hall, Mr. Anderson, and Mr. Haslam revealed some of the excuses they have heard for unfinished assignments. I was babysitting.” 'l had a headache.” I left it in the car, and my dad took it.” “I had a yearbook deadline.” I couldn’t find a pen.” ”1 had a hot date. I just couldn't break it.” From one student came the original excuse. Once when I hadn’t finished an assignment, I cut it into little pieces and told the teacher my nephew did it. She gave me an A!” Spinnin' Wheels From ’58 Darts to souped up Cameros, cars play an important part in students’ lives. Guys worship them, sophomores dream for the day to drive them, and girls don't understand them. Some purr like kittens; others rumble like thunder; some are little and pudgy; others are long and luxurious. Besides the expense of purchasing a car, there are always gas and maintenance bills. With inflation sending fuel prices higher, gas has soared to $1 a gallon. With sophomores enrolled in driver’s education, the world faces the dange of new drivers on the road. Many rookies are safe and legal, but there are always a few reckless drivers that endanger other people s safe travel. Wrecks are common among high school students, but most of these are only fenderben-ders, There are, of course, the more experienced drivers, sometimes called “car freaks.” They spend hours of their spare time tuning up, painting, polishing, cleaning, and just loving their cars. Oddly enough, these people are usually the same ones that can be heard after school gunning their engines and noisily pulling away at 50 mph. 16 Student Life

Who's under the bed? Throughout the year, the different classes sponsored parties. The Seniors held a party at Saint Anne's Retreat in Logan Canyon during the summer. The girls asked a boy with such creative invitations as balloons, pillowcases, and painted pictures. Each couple brought a flashlight to play Flashlight Tag.” Even though Saint Anne's is notorious for being scary, everyone wandered ♦outside for the game. However, Lez-lee Hales and Kip Meachem hid under a bed upstairs. “Every time someone would come upstairs, we'd be as quiet as we could. The telephone rang a couple of times right in the room, we were sure they’d find us, said Lezlee. They finally came downstairs after about an hour under the bed. The Juniors and Sophomores had class parties, too. Both the Junior Road Rally and the Sophomore's spring party were a great success. In addition, several academic classes had parties. The Amphion staff had a party in the Canyon as well as late night deadline parties. The Chauntaires went caroling after a concert and then ate at Tifani Eyre’s house. These different parties helped promote unity in the class and provided a chance for classes to have a lot of fun together. A food lover's paradise.'' sighs Lori Reid Nine to five About half of the studentbody held jobs during the year. These jobs ranged from secretarial work to selling clothes to being a busboy. Some of the benefits of working besides the check are the discounts and prizes given in contests between employees. Some students take work that they are interested in for after high school, but others work at places that they are able to get a job. Work helps one to learn responsibility and independence. Soap Operas are Blake Peterson's favorite! A typical date Most dates are essentially the same. For example, before a dance one goes out to eat, and afterwards the couple usually goes to someone's house. However, every once in awhile someone thinks of something creative to do. One senior girl told of a date with a boy from Sky View in which they went to Grand Central and bought crayons and paper. Then, they went to a cemetery, made stone rubbings, and told scary stories. Another girl went to her boyfriend's house and gave his dog a bath and a haircut. Although most boys try to plan something fancy before a dance, one boy took his date to Dee’s before a junior prom. They ate their food in Central Park. It can be hard for boys to ask a girl out. Likewise, girls are always complaining of not enough dates. However, when a date is finally a reality, it is most likely to be a success. Soap Operas are Blake Peterson's favorite! A successful date for Nancy Beyers and Ben Brown T.V. top ten 1.
