EXTRA AMOUNTS oi tood consumed each day by jocks like Ricky fkspey helped give them more energy to play their specific sport better. Most sports were practiced during sixth period so that students who needed to stay aiter school to play could do so without having to change clothes. FREQUENT USE of the drama books in the library is caused by students needing to choose plays to do skits for Miss Dawsorfs drama classes. Mary Oatman took drama all three quarters and for the whole year performed approximately 21 skits. -Q, o'7 S' ILCS' M ' 'W if qlaxj. ...

AFTER SCHOOL I n-.,.,b,9 'vis 1 ARRIVAL AT SCHOOL early in the morning provided students with time to talk before classes started. A popular place for students such as Danny Akers and David Guerro to meet was in front of the cafeteria. 20 typical day WAS A TYPICAL DAY Certain organizations do much work after darkness falls I Continued from page I 91 Even during class periods the halls were never entirely empty. Students claiming they were sick or that they needed to visit the bathroom or counselor, sometimes truthfully and sometimes not, were usually let out of class. Graffiti writing was one way to pass the time while one stayed in the bathroom to skip class. Writing on the bathroom doors shows irnmaturity. They should have enough courage to say stuff to their faces, said Andrea Ashley. Doors on booths in the girls' bathroom were covered with white paper to protect the wood. When the paper was used up, the custodians changed it so no one could scribble on the paint. Classrooms were used also as marketplaces, There is hardly a day that goes by that a club does not sell something, said Kathy Shelby. Various school organizations sold popcorn jars, candles, glasses, pins, buttons, pennants and every variety of candy imaginable. Testing was one of the more serious events which happened. Teachers prepared their students for testing ahead of time so when they came to class the following day they were ready to take the test without any problems. l do not see where they get you anywhere. You don't accomplish anything by taking tests, said Missy lnnmon, When the last bell of the day rang, the rush was on, Pupils and teachers alike began pouring out of the building anxious to go home and to work. I go home right after school. I mean right after the bell ringsl said Cathy Selby. Drag racing was also on the list of before and after school activities students took part in. Students ventured outside and spent a few minutes with the smell of burnt rubber and the sound of screeching tires. Terri Blomquist commented, ul think its kind of stupid. They are all going to kill themselves. After the majority of the people left the building the school was still not completely empty. People in several organizations came to attend meetings, but the regulars of the after school crowd belonged to Publications, the Royal Court Players and Band. Paste ups for the Shield and Knight lasted until all hours of the night, and sometimes morning, but this only happened a couple of times a month. Band members, on the other hand, only stayed a few minutes after school, but this was once a week or more often. Rehearsing plays, RCP members returned to school after virtually everyone else had left, usually about 7 p.m. Actors and crews stayed late working on the two major productions of No, No, o Nlilfion Times No! and The Man Who Come To Dinner. lt is a lot of fun to stay after school. l get to see my friends in HCP more and although you don't get to see television much, RCP people are more fun than Starsky a11dHz1fCh, said Tricia Worrell. SPRING-LIKE WEATHER was enjoyed by students who finished their lunch early and had time to spend outside. Some students brought their own lunch in order to stay outside the whole lunch period. SALES PITCH. to the senior class to buy twelfth grade gifts was given by Mr. Buck Overall who was also in charge of the invitations. Seniors could also order thank-you cards to send to people who presented them gifts for graduation.
