And those weird clothes!” When reminiscing through your parents' high school annuals, hove you ever realized that you might be saying that about your own onnuol ten years from now? Things that we do and things that we like will change drastically over the years. Our tastes adopt to the latest fods. To capture our special tastes during 1981-82, the Publications class rook o survey. Every student in the high school received o survey sheer. We received 64 surveys out of the 84 handed out. The survey consisted of 15 questions ranging from fashion preferences to favorite political figures. Hair and clothes fashions of a certain period of rime ore always remembered and ore captured by pictures. The favorite hairstyles, os indicated by the survey, were the feathery and curly looks. French braids were also mentioned and ore o populor new fod. The preppy” look is in ond dominated our survey wirh fashion favorites such os rab- collared shirts underneath swearers. Loafers, which feature o low heel, were the most populor shoes, bur there ore still quite o number of fenny runners” walking up ond down our halls. Good ole blue jeans haven't been forgotten ond were much olive in the survey with Lee's ond Wrangler’s being the most populor brands. Things such os foods ore nor concretely remembered by pictures. The food that was liked most was pizzo. The second choice was steak. The survey contradicted the troditionol stereotyped view of teenagers eating burgers ond fries. 3 Sports idol George Brett oppeored in o populor mogozine A shot from M A S H with Loretto Swir, Jomle Forr. ond Alon Aldo The fovorite sport ot Midwoy is football 'fe . . — The fovorite comedion-entertoiner Benny Hill is shown here ' doing his stuff WE W AT CHED WE W AT CHED WE W AT CHED WE W AT CHED WE W AT CHED W Hove you ever heord your porenrs folk obour o movie sror of rheir rime ond con only lough or you when you innocenrly osk.

The tostes of music change with the coming of new sounds, os political figures change with the coming of elections. The fame of singers ond groups is much like that of octors ond T V. shows — short-lived, (with exceptions) They often fade out ond eventually ore knocked out of the spotlight by some newer, hotter groups. This is why the music port of our lives characterize our special high school yeors. Pock ond roll lives on, os our survey indicated by rhe response. The favorite mole singer is newcomer Pick Springfield, with hits like Jessie's Girl ond I've Done Everything For You. Pot Denotor londslided in os the best female vocalist. She hos many, mony hits which include Treat Me Pighr ond Fire ond Ice. AC DC wos the best liked group, ond they sing Dock in Dlack ond rhe populor Dirty Deeds. Students aren't pictured os being up on politico! issues, but they ore forced to become more aware of them because of the current domestic ond economic situations. The students at Midway definitely hod o political idol. Even though his economic programs ore widely criticized. President Ponold Peogon wos granted rhe honors. Though oil men be mode of one merol, yer they be nor cost oil in one mold. (John Lyley) Individuals. Each of us is different in many ways. That's whot mokes life Interesting. You've got personality,” os the song soys. Everyone has one, but some people hove o more unique sense of individuality that couses them to stand out from the rest. There ore also events that happen within the school ond around the world that stand out from the rest. In August, the first day of school was held on the 24th. Jim Frey, manager of the Royals was fired ond Dick Howser wos hired. Jimmy Coner ond his family were touring Chino ond Jopon.

WESHAREDWESHAREDWESHABEDWESHAREDWESHAREDWESHAREDW Many friendships ore formed during o person's lifetime. So many thor if would be impossible ro attempt o count. As we grow older, it seems thot we develop friendships that ore more lasting ond mean more ro us than just shoring o few secrets or sitting by each other or lunch. Friends ore now someone to hove fun with ond confide in. Knowing that someone cores ond accepts you is important. Tereso Berry described o friend os Someone who knows me ond likes me anyway.” Like friendships, the events of o lifetime ore too numerous to count. A few of the things that happen ore remembered, though. In October, yearbooks went up $2.00, Anwar Sodot, President of Egypt, was ossossinoted, Barbara Mondrell was named entertainer of the year, ond the Dodgers won the World Series.

There is loughter ond there ore tears, but leorn from these obstacles ond overcome them. High school is o time for learning to overcome our prolems ond carry on later in life on our own. Events that were hoppening or school during December ond January included ups ond downs. In December, juniors ond seniors traveled to Troy for Career Day and some students went to the onnuol County Government Doy. A bright spot in the month wos the new vending machine with 22 selections.

Mr Ninemire rries ro reach the freshmen something 93 This year is much quieter without Todd and Steve, wos o comment mode by Mrs. Winchester when questioned on how the year wos going. Even though the year is quieter, things haven't slowed down for her. Quite the opposite in fact because Mrs. Winchester hod o change in class scheduling. She also sponsors the Freshman class ond Girls' M-Club. Since she reaches more classes, she is in contact more with the students.

He feels he con communicate with oil of the students ond that produces o good feeling. This year hos been different for Mr. Leathermon in the aspect that he coaches football instead of cross- country. Mr. Leothermon's advice to the seniors is to nor dwell on the negative things of life, but to accentuate the positive aspects. Another piece of advice to oil students is, if you don't know how to swim, don't rock the boot. LEATHERMANLEATHERMANLEATHERMANLEATHERMANLEATHERMANL Mr Leotherman works intently ot his desk Now.

Mr. Honer thought this year s seniors hove o more positive attitude toward the underclassmen. The espirir de corps among this year's student body is o tribute to the seniors' leadership.

Even though she hos been there for 11 years, she feels os if it really hasn't been that long. Gut in music, changing teachers every one or two year's doesn't help students excel because you keep building on the previous yeors experience. She likes it here because most of the students take pride in doing o good job. Thor's whot makes o good school, she soid. She soid, This senior class hos extra ordinary students.

She is o great help to us during homecoming ond Jr. ploy ond the other activities with helping draw most of the posters ond programs, etc. We couldn't do it without her. soid Lori Nigus.
