THE 19 'RAI GOES ON G'night Mom, Dad. You shut the door, turn off the light, hop in bed. The front door locks the dog out for the last time 'til morning. The living room lights go off, the bedroom door closes-wait 5 minutes. You tear off the covers put on your shoes and open your levelor blinds just in time to see the headlights of the car shut off two houses down. Out the window! It was just the chance you had to take for the life after hours and what was known as ... ALL OF THE ABOVE Starting PG. 6 It can't be- I swear I just closed my eyes. You peel your eyes open in time to see the red digital numbers flash at you accusingly. You drag yourself out of bed realizing the floor's even colder than yesterday morning. The next thing you know you're standing on the edge of the pool at 5:30 of what feels like the coldest winter ever. Every sport was blessed with ... SEASON’S GREETINGS Starting PG. 36 You glance at your watch on the counter before you climb into the shower - 9:15 - and put on the first thing you see. No time to do your hair. You get to class as the unknown announcer reminds you ... Oh. well, no one looks good on picture day .. . PICTURE PERFECT Starting PG. 70 By the time the paper reaches you it's already half full of names. You pick up your Eraser Mate, sign your John Hancock, and BOOM vou're a member. Wait-not so fast? Huh? We don't have a German Club? Because our constitution's in German? That's not fair! They can’t do this! Every club had 'em .... DUES DON’TS Starting PG. 116 You race down the hall, opening the door as quietly as possible, praying he isn't taking roll or everyone will stare at you like you'd committed the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

caught utn Confusions The beginning of a new school year marked a time not only for change and involvement, but also for confusion in the lives of students. A new student constitution, a shorter school day, and a longer, single lunch were all significant changes from years past. With the election year, of course, came contro- versy. But while the nation was debating candi- dates, NHS was caught up in its own political situation that was causing attention. The new year brought the debut of student congress and with it came power. Congress was run by the students, for the students. Removing the homeroom period from the daily schedule of events made room for a longer, sin- gle lunch. Students loved the extra free time and chance to go to lunch with all their friends, but getting out of the parking lot was a challenging and trying experience with 1,300 kids all head- ing the same direction at the same time. The Olympic Games, the passing of liquor by the drink, the Chicago Cubs winning the Nation- al League East Pennant, and for once a relatively dry homecoming were all major happenings making this year entirely different from all others. TIGER PRIDE Getting into the spirit of the moment, the band dressed up a little out of the ordinary ' for the first after-school pep rally. The front lawn served as the perfect site to display the original orange and black pnde. Cassie Onofrey gets caught up in the excitement. PENi: OPENING
