senior sickness strikes, Typical symptoms remain Last spring students at Monacan were struck with a very rare and mysterious dis- ease. The disease seemed to be isolated to seniors gradu- ating; symptoms included lack of concentration, extreme boredom, and fatigue; all of which caused grades to slip quite noticeably. Many experts studied the malady and found that atten- dance dropped significantly, as well. There were a few days leading cause had not been positively indentified, but it has been found that an excess of term papers and major pro- ject assignments could be the reason. Teachers became ob- sessed with laying these bur- d ens on their students during the spring when the weather got nicer and the park seemed more appealing. Dr. Author I. Tell said that in future years it might be a good idea to give when the entire senior class seemed to be absent. The a term papers and other large assignments over the winter when the symptoms of seniori- tis had not yet struck. 20 20 Vision.

Crazy but still smart Years after high school is over, everyone will remember the cheerleaders and track stars of the class, but another memory that will probably prove to be unforgettable, will be of those off-beat guys who kept the morale of the senior class going between ball games and graduation. The Smart Patrol, (yes, those five guys who loitered by the senior hall water foun- tain and barked as the crowds went by), is credited with many of the senior pranks that helped make the year go by faster. The Smart Patrol offi- cially consists of Philip Wal- lace, the founder of the group; Glen Ottaman; Mark Raedels; Henry Menke; and Matt Fer- rary. The name, Smart Patrol, is derived from a song by DEVO and fits the image of the group. Spaghetti bags at pep ral- 74 Class of 81 lies, food fights in the cafete- ria, and setting mice loose during 3rd lunch all proved to be amusing diversions that frustrated the faculty while starting school traditions that will continue long after the senior class has gone their separate ways. The Smart Patrol is also credited for bringing Punk Rock music to Monacan ... during lunch. . . during pep ral- lies ... during field trips ... in fact, any time during the day. While Philip, Glenn, Henry, Mark, and Matt do not fit the stereotype academic model, the Smart Patrol will always be remembered by both the Class of ’81 and the faculty. {STOR ae Sts CERT SE Sa ae a Ce a The CIA?
