V We are typical teenagers....dwelling on extra- ordinary man-made” ledges....high on the bar- ren, yet fertile mountain sides of the Rockies.... in the sun-drenched Southwest. Our world of the blue and green sky, boldly captured in turquoise and silver by our native craftsmen....is pictur- esque....filled with kaleidoscopic fads, interests and pageantry. It is a world where insignificant, individualistic entities set our daily lives apart. We enjoy....the fragrance of springtime in the air....walking hand in hand with that special girl or boy....the invigorating warmth of the midday sun....flowing noisy crowds in the hallways be- tween classes....discussing the new and the old. Ours is a world of fun....of newly acquired independence....of work and study....of spirit and pride....of developing healthy attitudes. We love the unfamiliar....new ideas....new books ....new slang....new faces....new personalities; but we treasure the established traditions. Our style is varied....sometimes we create our own fads, and sometimes we borrow them.... from neighboring schools....magazines....and television programs. We pick up and discard capricious fashions as easily and frequently as our mountain rattler grows and sheds his skin.
