Her numerous achievements in¬ cluded S.C.A. president, D.A.R. Citizenship Award recipient, Governor ' s School partici¬ pant, 1st alternate Youth Senate Program, Best Actress, and Supporting Actress. Besides staying constantly busy, what other personality trait do you be¬ lieve helped you most in high school? Another factor which has influenced me in high school is that of being unafraid to be a nonconformist, or unafraid to be oneself. I feel this quality has helped me achieve every honor I have received in high school, espe¬ cially attending the Governor ' s School. What benefits did you receive from Governor’s School? Governor ' s School was a crucial exper¬ ience for me. There I learned to believe in myself and not be ashamed of displaying talents. I took classes in drama and dance and feel that while I learned from the instruc¬ tion, I learned more from the people. The people are what made the school so genu¬ inely unique. No one felt limited, therefore, everyone shared sincerely their ideals and talents with each other. What is one thing in general, you have learned from all your experiences? “One learns from listening to all kinds of people, not just those who are like oneself. I hope I shall always be able to continue relat¬ ing to all types of people as I did at Gover¬ nor ' s School. Everyone has a talent of some sort and I advocate this strongly. This is why if I could give each person one sentence as a motivation it would be ‘Become the one you dream you can be’.” On with the show.

minds, both male and female alike. Happy Birthday Most teenagers had always anticipated the day of their eighteenth birthday. This entitled them to many new privileges and experiences, but were they ready for the responsibilities which would follow? Be¬ ginning in January, 1981, eighteen-year- old males were given a new responsibility. For those male Seniors who were born in the 1962, the instatement of the registra¬ tion for the selective service became a reality. This requirement for registration included a majority of the Senior class males. Although the simple registration for the selective service did not necessarily mean a draft was scheduled for anytime in the near future, mixed thoughts and feelings began to arise. Male Seniors were not Registering for the selective service did not bother me because the United States needs men ready in case of an emergency. ' ' -Dean Holston alone with their interests concerning the possibility of a draft. With the near ratifica¬ tion of the Equal Rights Amendment, many female Seniors began fo ponder the idea of registering. The possibility of what might follow registration haunted many I would be glad to sign up for the selective service and be willing to go wherever I am needed. ' ' -Missy Gallaher Selective Service was installed to keep America on her toes in case of a possible military conflict. With American hostages having been held in Iran for a prolonged period of time and the inauguration of a new President with new ideas, the future was unpredictable. However, after 444 days of captivity, the hostages were finally released on the day of Ronald Reagan ' s Inauguration; no mili¬ tary action was required. The prolonged worry over a war in the Middle East was replaced by the happiness of the 52 Americans being returned home. Out of the number of men required to register, a very high percentage of them did. Ads urging men to register were seen on T.V., hea ’ on the radio, and read in the newspapers. All stressed the fact that it was not a reinstatement of the draft; it was merely a way of attaining a pool of names from which to choose in case they were needed quickly. Only time would tell whether or not those registered would have to protect their country actively. Uncle Sam wants you to register. Senior Jackie King registers for selective service at the Dublin Post Office. All males born in the year 1962 were re¬ quired to register, and the majority of the Senior males met this requirement.
