eep on truckin’-Jody Martin waits in the bus I ' cle tor his passengers to arrive. Jody left school v everyday to report to his part-time job of driv¬ ing a public school bus. The job gave him exper¬ ience and money for a new truck and furthering his education. Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief What are you going to do when you graduate? Man I don ' t know. Maybe I ' ll go to college, but I love working with car mo¬ tors. Hey, you know my ASVAB tests said I might do well in electricity. Gosh-I just don ' t know! Alter attending school for almost twelve years, the thought of the end of school seemed unreal. While some Seniors said they would miss school, others were glad to see it come to a close. With high school came the beginning of career preparations. Those who planned to attend college busied them¬ selves with preparatory classes. Those who planned to go straight into the work¬ ing world” enrolled in vocational courses. Block classes were offered which were 2 or 3 hours long. Skills were taught and practiced by providing services to the community. Auto body classes fixed dents and worked on motors, while cosmotology classes gave manicures, cuts, and styled hair. Through D.E. and I.C.T. classes, many Seniors found part-time jobs. Credit was given for the job and money was earned. Seniors worked hard during their last year of school, trying to find the right path for their futures. It was a hard road, filled with indecision and confusion! Up and under-Paul Crosier, Wayne Dalton, and Wayne Tolbert compare ideas on the best way to repair cars. These Seniors were three of many who were prepared for jobs or future education by learn¬ ing.

Tired aching feet. Short nights with less than five hours of sleep. Food that left much to be desired. All in all a pretty great week. Virginia Girls ' State had a few unpleasant characteristics, but Cindy Farmer, Monica Hoel, and Becy Marshall agreed that it was one of the best weeks they ever spent. At Girls ' State, 600 rising Senior girls were given the chance to learn about state and local government by running for of¬ fices in a mock government. Becky was elected President Pro Tem of the Senate, Cindy was State Defense Chairman, Monica was on the City Council. They were able to hear from important speakers throughout the week, including Marshall Coleman, Va. ' s Attorney Gener¬ al, and Lt. Governor Chuck Robb. The twelve cities competed with each other for the honor of being the Model City -the one city which had been outstanding dur¬ ing the week. There was competition be¬ tween cities in sports, exhibition of spirit, and organization of government. Cities made up songs, chants, jingles, and nick¬ names to support their townships. The girls were divided at random into two parties-The Nationalists and The Fed¬ eralists. To distinguish between the par¬ ties, the Nationalist wore yellow beanies and the Federalists wore blue beanies. When all the participants gathered to¬ gether, it was practically a sea of bean¬ ies. The entire week was very realistic from party conventions to voter registration. Delegates ran for every office imagir able, including Sheriff, Mayor, and Governor. It was a week of work, fun, and new friends. The time passed quickly, and par¬ ticipants left with a greater understanding of Government and people. r Beanies, Beanies, And More Beanies 162 Seniors
