Rock'N'Roll Uve5 At N.B.H.S Music is an incredible thing. In its sounds and lyrics it wields an un- matched power. Music can bring to- gether thousands of people from ev- ery walk of life for a common cause, whether it be for the satisfaction of attending a live performance or for the elimination of hunger in East Af- rica. Music lets us escape our every- day world. It gives us energy, peace, satisfaction, and, for some, direction linked with a philosophical avenue. Teenagers and rock music will un- doubtedly be courting one another for as long as civilization exists. Teens embrace their music with an uncomparable loyalty and zeal. But sometimes there is a need to become that music, by integrally linking it with the personality. Rock shirts, hairstyles, and rock fashion all ex- press this. To be even closer to the music, rock afficiandos must trek great distances to the far yonder mu- sic concerto or continue to meet the ever-demanding role of the rock per- former. Whatever your opinion, whatever your state of mind, music serves to combine all of us into a unique whole. It is the magnet of peace and harmony, ignoring the conflicting difference and appealing to one’s sense of common humanity. 2 7 8

 Everybody's Working For The Weekend The resources needed to fuel the life of a teenager go far beyond the limitations of al- lowance or handouts. Therefore, teens must seek to attain a per capita income enhance- ment vehicle, or simply — a job! With the influx of yankee greenbacks, the possibilities are limitless. There is, however, a severe draw- back in this means. In order to attain afflu- ence, students may have to surrender their precious weekends. “Everybody’s Working for the Weekend” is dedicated to those hard working students who have made sacrifices to get what they want. Their contributions to the economy and soci- ety as a whole are neither ignored nor unap- preciated. They have displayed dedication in- dividual initiative at an uncertain time in their lives. Both of these are indicative of the productive, responsible citizen, destined to maintain the prominent position of our great motion in the world today. 4
