Break-In and Bomb Threat The school day was interrupted by bomb threats and a break-in. Teacher’s lounges and other areas were vandalized. Gossip was started among the students about the sum of money that was taken, but the greatest damage done was to the machinery. A bomb threat was called in on September 25, 1973 during the second period. Students were evacuated from the building, and then again during second lunch. The local police were on hand and men went throughout the building searching for the alleged bomb to no avail. Vandals succeeded only in ruining furniture, not in gaining valuables. The local police arrived to search for an alleged bomb. Students are happy to have a break in the fresh air. 14

Above: It didn’t come to an end, it just aged as does this cabin in Pulaski County. Far Left: Students wonder if a work day ever comes to an end, maybe so, but there is always another one the next day. Below: Perhaps people and places change, but it is as though the countryside always seems the same.

They Make It Tick In a year of change, without the help of students, teachers giving extra time, and kitchen workers, the school could never have run so smoothly. These people deserve special credit this year amidst all the confusion of plans for the new school. Mrs. Reese, Mrs. Hogee and Mrs. Jarrells make rolls for an on-rush of hungry students. Bonnie Hughes and other students do volunteer work in the office. 15
