After hours, good time, party time, freedom or whatever term is applied, began at 3:15 at the sound of the bell. When it rang, students went their own way and said goodbye to teachers, principals and grades, at least until homework started. A high school has a tremendous amount of activities in which students can be involved. School related ac- tivities of every kind can be attended. Football games are the prime social events of the early year. Spirit organizations center their schedules around the season. Band and Markette members started practice before the school year began and came every day after school as well. Cheerleaders also spent their after hours at school, preparing pep rallies. Many students spent their free time at the school as well. Athletes practiced after school every day and practices were also held for musicals and other performances. Clubs offered students the oppor- tunity to become even more involved in the school. A student could truly over-do himself with activities, focus ing all attention towards the weekend. On weekends, we hit the night life: parties, dating, sleep and parties. There were senior parties for the rowdy. Iunior boys calling themselves the Zombies, threw par- ties virtually every week. Several students chose to hold after school jobs at stores and shops. Some students were even said to be study- ing occasionally. Memorial students indulged in every possible activity and there were many from which to choose. Spirit groups, clubs, athletics and school-work were but a few of the ac- tivities students joined in. Many students had private hobbies. One thing is for certain, though, every minute of time after hours was used effectively. Football games bring spirit from all organiza- tions.

The precious months between May and August have long been numero uno in the minds of Memorial students. Summer is a time when you can grow up and mature without the stress of school, explained Sophomore Stan McDonald. Personal recreation was a favorite among students. I spent two weeks in the wilderness backpacking with Young Life, said Senior Kristen Fink. It was the funnest summer I've ever had, she added. Along with other Memorial students, I spent a week at Windy Gap, a Young Life camp in North Carolina, explained Senior Tracy Thompson. Others had less fulfilling motives. Women and waterskiing made my summer, said Iunior Kevin Keith. The beaches of Galveston Island provided a summer hangout for Memorial students. I spent half my summer at a rented condominium off of Iamaica Beach, revealed Freshman Robin Hecht. Freshman Edie Hansen preferred jamaica Beach for majestic reasons. I liked climbing the dunes at the beach, she said. Still others spent their summer months traveling throughout the world. I traveled overseas to Great Britain with my parents, com- mented Sophomore Stan McDonald. We accomplished the usual sightseeing list, and it was in- teresting, he added. Others traveling abroad went with continued on page 13 Barechested and enjoying the outdoors, Senior Robert Wallace soaks in the sun's rays flying a kite.
