Though they were from varied parts of the world-Christel Beck was from Germany, Roman Borja was from Saipan, and Domingo Cruz was from Puerto Rico, these students became quite active in everyday school life, fitting in with friends as if they had lived in Muncie all their lives. Chris found involvement in cheerb-lock and German Club an important part of her school-oriented life. She also became an active member of both the Magician and Munsonian staffs, finding her journalism experience here quite different from the same kind of opportunity in Germany. Roman, who attended the Career Center daily to learn the welding trade, found his special spot at Central was participation on the football squad. From a Pacific Island near Guam, Roman finished his second year at Central as a graduate of the Class of '81. For Mingo Cruz, participating in Spanish Club and attending Central's sporting events occupied time when he wasn't playing soccer, his first love. Central not only had students sharing their cultures here, but there wore also Centralites who took American culture elsewhere. StudentLife 27

The final bell rang and students streamed out the doors of the school. Where did they all go? Some students got a quick bite to eat and then rushed off to an after-school job. Many worked at a fast-food restaurant such as McDonald's, Burger Chef or Long John Silver's. However, some didn't want to devote all their spare time to a job so they chose the less time-consuming job like baby-sitting and mowing lawns to earn that extra dough. Many teens spent much of their spare time at school for sports practices, music and drama rehearsals, class meetings and use of the library. Several kids went home, got something to eat and watched television, listened to albums or talked on the phone. Many played pinball or pool with their friends for recreation. However, there is one activity that most of us had in common. We came home from working about six hours at school and came home to the relaxing, fun-filled activity of doing HOMEWORK. Where are you, Mom? Senior Sally McFall. junior Karen Dillon, sophomore Ana Quirk and her sisler, freshman Theresa Quirk wait patiently for their rides to pick them up Thank goodness it’s Friday!
