Pelaxing, A Top Priority for lvlac Student hat's going on after the game? became a popular question popping around the classroom as students eagerly awaited the last bell Friday after noon. Planning a night proved dif- ficult, for those who anticipated seeing that special person or fin- ding a way to make that night the best. Most found that with the enter- tainment prices so high, emply- ment played a key role in the weekends. Working mornings or afternoons satisfied students as long as they were off in time to get ready for that night's event. While girls found shopping at the mall a good way to spend the afternoon, the boys seemed to let 4-wheeling and hunting relieve their tensions. Some students resorted to just plain crashing on the weekends. Watching televi- sion or playing a favorite sport kept students alert, and depen- ding on the influence lvtom and Dad had, the family car might be washed.

Honors ranged from spending six weeks in Flegensburg or Skopje, to receiving rewards as seemingly trite as a document or certificate. But the value of these patches and tassels did not lie with its material worth, but rather in the pride of the owner for his certain accomplishments. For many, the senior year offered recognition not previously available. Whether an athlete's picture hung in the old gym as a part of the Athletic Hall of Fame, or an outstanding student's name became one of the National Merit Scholarship Semifinalists, these students exemplified the distinction between mediocre and superior while serving as models for the underclassmen. But underclassmen had the opportunity to excel as well. The chosen few served as class attendants at the Christmas Dance and the Coronation Ball, while others may simply have seen their names on the honor list for the first time. For the truly dedicated, honors were a small way to acknowledge the time and effort required in achieving those distinctions. Honors distinguished those who sought to prove what McClintock all S Mio' G '55 00' will km va so rxtilona l ,UQ gf evil' fs
