Car window signs with messages like this were seen in the rear windows of many cars around the area. They started out as wamings like Baby On Board, but they were soon used as a substitute for humorous bumper stickers. But by the time the phrases became more irreverant Ci.e. Grand- mother in Trunk or Mother-in-law in Trunk j, they quickly lost popularity. Perhaps it was because some thought warnings they were distracting to drivers, defeating their original purpose of safety. Or, perhaps they just became tacky.

accident unites When a near tragedy occurs, the entire school is touched. On the evening of October 12, 1987 at 10:45 p.m., Sr. Eric Mercer's truck rolled over along with Eric and his eight passengers. The excessive weight of the nine people in the truck, along with the u-turn that Eric took, were the causes of the acci- dent that occurred when Eric was in the process of going from Babiyar Park to a party. After being urged by his passengers, Eric took a u-tum to go back to a street that he had missed. Eric said, Since it was a slow roll, everyone jumped out in time. Eric got out of his truck and helped some of the people get out. He said, I didn't really care about my truck. I was just worried about the people. All of the people involved in the accident were taken to the hospital for shock treat- ment. However, Jr. Doug Day and Sr. Katie Ramsdale both had minor injuries that required them to stay ovemight at the hospital. This accident affected the lives of the students who weren't directly involved. Jr. Maureen Craig said, 'This accident made people stop and think. Peoplels lives were at stakef' Jr. Trevor Gallup said, It drew the school closer together because everyone shared in the shock of the accident. Eric would like to warn people about what can happen when they don't use all the safety precautions that they should when they drive. Eric said, It taught me to look at people, that they're doing the same type of thing that I did. I guess it had to happen to someone, and I was that someone. --Michelle Marcu s a result of the October 12 3, accident, Eric Mercer's truck was declared totaled by his insurance company. The truck rolled slowly enough that all the occupants could escape. 90 mini-ma 5- - - lllllfllfffffff kg ,.,,,..,,e..w.,., , .,,,,, .,..g...sc.ms--W...,s W .-...-.wefv et. ,..4-gs. .WM 9? ...V--0 Cume1yofBricMome
