First day Coming back isn't that easy Aug. 29. EXIT: sun, fun, and summer jobs. ENTER: classes, books, and stuck lockers. Yes, this is the First Day. The start of all this, of course, was schedule pick-up day, described by senior counselor Relda Mainard as a nightmare! During this chaotic Aug. 24 over 700 sophomores were hand-issued lockers by sophomore secretary Susie Smart because the computer didn't. Also parking sticker distribution was unlimited for the first time with even sophomores getting stickers. Students waited until that First Day to greet counselors with a barrage of schedule problems. For most, the plus side of com- ing back was seeing friends who'd been missed over the sum- mer. And probably the hardest part of re-adjustment was, as junior Leonard Anshelevich said, Waking up early! Counselors, who returned Aug. 10, had a head start on getting up early. Sophomore counselor Carolyn Hooker, who has the job of checking individual credits, does some last minute organizing before the first day. Sophomores Stephanie Weprin and Lynn Cunningham fill out their photo cards at schedule pick-up. 12 f Student Life It was difficult just coming back to Texas, let alone schoolf' said counselor Bettye Whitney, who spent most of her summer in Morocco. So, though arms were loaded down with new books, and halls echoed with signs, another First Dayn had passed! - Kim Boyle Junior Jennifer Lee joins the rest of the crowd to pick up the longsawaited year- books, which finally arrived during the lst week of school.

Although Lieutenant Elain Effren claimed the routines are basically the same each year, one of this year's varia- tions was a series of contagions, which Lieutenants Kim Hancock, Susan Patrk, Betsy Bryant, and Jennifer Cole practice.
