You get a good feeling of freedom and fun times when school lets out. Most everybody likes to feel good, so they leave as fast as they can. ven Pizza Hut has become a popular hangout for students. Freshmen Mike Sarrazin and Ellen Hawkins talk over the Bellmont basketball game. rn S% i « Weekends were made for . . . Most people think of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday when they hear the word weekend . In a way. New Haven High School students are an exception. There was a certain feeling associated with weekends — relaxation — fun times- a partying mood — and we had plenty of the weekend feeling during the week when school was over at 3:10 each day. Everybody was glad to get away from school — to be free — at least for a while. There were a lot of different activities going on during weekends. Instead of going together a lot of people just dated. Dates usually consisted of a movie, or bowling, or an athletic event, and then getting something to eat after- wards or driving around or going to someone ' s house to watch T.V. On week- ends and evenings many students just drove around and stopped to get some- thing to eat at McDonald ' s or Pizza Hut. Many people went shopping when there was nothing else to do or they had a little extra money from their job. Many people involved in athletics had early Saturday practices, which meant either they went to bed early on Friday evening or they went out and sometimes suffered the next morning. Babysitting, usually an easy way to make money, occupied time on weekends. Sometimes guys got together to play cards and have a good time. Unfortunately, if a teacher gave you homework on Friday, you spent your weekends studying. 1 4 Weekends

Sometimes words just aren ' t enough to express how you feel. Linda Bender (12) is announced Homecoming queen at the Pep Rally. It takes planning, practice, and coordina- tion to perfect a split mount. Adding to all of that are the varsity ' s new purple and white uniforms. Student Congress worked hard on this Homecoming float for the court. Senior queen candidates Jill Moyer, Melodie Dyson, Jamie Mann, Linda Bender and representatives Linda Reuille (10), Deb- bie Reed (1 1), and Nancy Szink (9) dressed warmly because it was so cold. When you feel like crying and laughing at the same time it ' s the neatest kind of feeling. After performing at the Pep Rally, Suzanne Claus (12) talks with fel- low Highlight and Homecoming queen, Linda Bender (12). Homecoming 13
