in a million as much trouble as they were worth. The staff distributed and redistributed the papers, they typed and retyped the biographies, and retyped and edited and retyped. From this it was learned that MHS has an outstanding variety of individuals, although many of them have the same likes and dis- likes. Most junior high students like math, blue, “Good Times,” and chicken. But when they progress a little more, they’ll have more sophisticated favorites such as history, “The Jeffersons,” “Soap,” and pizza, which belong to the majority of senior high students. “The rule I hate most at Millwood is no excused admit unless you attend your own funeral,” says Jenell Noiel. “If I could be principal for one day, I would put all the teachers in in-house suspension,” says Gayetta Lawrence. “If I had only one day to live, I would spend it resting,” says Ronald Douglas. “The most important thing I want other people to know about me is that I’m here and would make the best friend around,” says Donna Cooper. “If I could have one wish come true, I would wish that I had $100,800,(XX),000,” says Rodney Smith. “When I finish school, I would like to be a nurse because I like to operate on people,” says Debra Davis. “The funniest thing I’ve ever seen at Millwood was ugly people talking about other ugly people,” says Sue Hollins. “If I could be principal for one day I woidd expel everybody,” says Marvinette Brannon.

Campus Lite It's a tradition... Well, of course, everyone goes to the football and bas- ketball games not only because it is fun and socia- ble, but it is also the “in” thing to do. And after the games, everyone knows where we all go when we mark up another victory on the scoreboard. It’s a tradition that lets you know when school and football season have offi- cially started. If you were to ask an average black high school student where his first stop after the football game on a Friday night would be, he could sum it up in a word, “McDonalds. The McDonald’s Corpora- tion not only serves over 25 billion people all over the world but tne store on Lin- coln Boulevard serves approximately 1500 teenag- ers every Friday night after the games during football and basketball seasons. Park- ing lots are so jammed that motorists use the vacant lot next door. Once inside, you find that there is standing room only because there are almost as many people inside as there are out. Shout, shout, shout it out! The Spirit Club makes its presence known. Power and spirit is exerted as the Falcon team runs onto the field. One, two, one, two, the defense warms up before the game. 10
