Clean Up, Fix Up Ahh spring time! Love, Flowers, CLEANING? Who can deny the worst things about spring is the amount of work to be done? Planting, weeding, cleaning places long forgotten . . . Ugh! Spring cleaning however, wasn ' t restricted to the home. LOCKER CLEAN-OUT! Down came the pictures and posters, out came the two month old tests, three month old notes, notebooks without covers, and the lunch Mom fixed you in August. Where does all this refuge go? The trash can? Na! Too easy. Unfortunate¬ ly most of it finds its way onto the floor. At no time is there so much trash than on locker clean out day. About the trash, assistant custodian Bron¬ son King said Yes it is bad, but the last couples of years it ' s been better because the students and faculty helped.” Work was not limited to the build¬ ing. Members of National Honor Soci¬ ety clad in jeans, grass stained sneak¬ ers and paint covered shirts took to the field under the command of Mrs. Polk, sponsor. They replaced dead shrubs with live ones, planted mari¬ golds, and blue and white flowers around the building simple to im¬ prove the environment. Trashed Out! As long as it was removed from their lockers students cared little where the garbage landed. Dane Decatur does the finishing touches on his locker. Green Thumbs Up! Many times the work around Potomac required one to get close to the dirt. Peggy Pasek adds the delicate touch in planting shrubbery. 18 Clean Up, Fix Up
