Newsmakers Every community needs a place for students to “hang out.” In Preston, that need is partially fulfilled by Tony's Pizza. Carlton Frank and Robert Bartsch count themselves among the regulars who crowd Tony’s for a pizza or sandwich with cold pop after a game or on a busy weekend. 16-ycar-old Amir Taherkhonchi is from Iran, although he has lived in Preston for the last 2Vi years. His family left Iran dur- ing the troubles which rocked that nation with revolution. He came to live under the guardianship of Waldo and Marilyn Bunge. He adjusted well, but now has rejoined in family. Above: Amir on the Bunge estate. Left: Atmosphere at Tony's Pizza Below: Attendants in full dress. Not all of a student's life is spent inside the walls of the school building. Many high school students find it neces- sary to work part-time after school to give them the money to do the type of things they would like to do. In a small school, where every student can be very busy, it is a challenge to find enough time, but a number of students were employed by local businesses like Dahl's IGA, Gunderson Motors, Pine Tree Apple Orchard, Preston Nursing Home, the Valley View Drive In, and Get 'N Go market among others. When students sought excitement of a grander order than they found in the streets of Preston. Rochester is where many of them would automatically head. There all the big city conven- iences of first-run movies, shopping malls, and all night restaurants could be found. Perkins was a favorite, but nobody was ignoring McDonald's or the other fast food places cither. One of the few big honors awarded to 1st graders is bestowing on them the title of Homecoming attend- ant. In the competition this year, Gerrie Erickson and Andrew Goldammer were selected. In the inter- view conducted as part of Coronation, they both seemed to indi- cate that they enjoyed the honor, especially the part that allowed them to miss enough school to participate in the Homecoming parade in an open con- vertible, as well as during the halftime of the game on Friday, September 26. They were the envy of all of their classmates. Newsmakers 9

Internal Affairs News Year Organizations and functions arc what make up the “social” life of a school like Preston-Fountain High School. Students must think them important. They partici- pate freely and spiritedly. Parents must think they're important, as they allow their children to participate, and follow along. Other members of the community follow the same line of thinking, and regularly attend and support school events. The school itself must see value in such pro- grams because of the funding support it tries o bring, even if it be little more than allowing the school building itself to be used, or letting school transportation to be used. The goal is to let every student be in something, to be involved, and give some sense of self-worth. Even the student who is not athletically gifted could be a some- body when they participate in the internal affairs of the school year. Clockwise from I 'pper Right: luirge crowds follow sports. Plays allow expression. Proud graduation. Internal Affairs 11
