This common bond is an affin- ity for their major muscle motions to be dominated by their left side. ln other words, they are left handed. In a right handed world with school desks, watches, cameras, and even ice cream scoopers favoring the right hand, left handed people definitely do have something to complain about. Cliches such as 'two left feet' and 'out in left field' make a leftie feel stupid. said Jr. Jennifer McQuaid. Sophomores Yet, the leftie does not only have to worry about cliches. How is a leftie supposed to use a can opener'?!'? This right handed world, however, has had some benefits for these lef- ties. Left handed people are more ambidextrous. When we're taught to do stuff we're taught the 'right hand- ed' way, said Sr. Michelle Mroz, who was able to throw a softball equally well with both her hands. She also provided an advantage for the volleyball team. A leftie can hit on her strong side which is normally con- sidered the 'weak' side. lt's a sur- prise to the other team, said Mi- chelle. Lefties also have the advantage in tennis. Sr. Steve Hayutin said, lt's harder to return a left handed per- son's serve because they force the op- ponent to use his backhandf' Athletics, though, is not the only place where a leftie has an advantage. Sr. Michelle Exley found that being left handed helped her play the French Horn where the valves are 'manipulated' by her left hand, which is stronger and more dextrous. Despite ink smudges on their hands, writing with a hook, and ad- justing to nearly everything, there were indeed some advantages to be- ing left handed. .. ,,,. .. , ...,.,, ,-A ye l .1 .Ja- Q:-.M wr' 'C'

Oh, why didn't I take driver's education'?! This is a common fear of new, inex- perienced drivers. To help learn about driving, many sophomores took Driv- er's Education. The class covered the basic rules of driving: how to signal properly, traffic sign meanings, oper- ation of a vehicle, etc. lt also prepared students for the Colorado Driving Permit Test.

The cost of the class was 55100. To complete the course, students had to drive up to the mountains with the teacher, Mr. Gerry Richardson. In the mountains, I drove off the road a couple of times, said Soph. Jeremy Dupont. Although driving to the mountains may have caused nervous- ness, it did help reassuring my par- ents that I will be fine when I drive up to the mountains, said Jeremy. And a lack of nervousness makes a better driver. e It istxkk - Ni,- 'ss '9h-slr' . 'I ' A , '.. W im 4 . I Mike Mar in PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT for Soph.
