Reluctantly we walked into the building for the very first time. It was so big!! Pretty soon we noticed a strange odor and realized it was coming from the direction of the drinking fountain. If that wasn’t enough, there were huge ugly bugs all over the place. Things got better when school got rolling a little bit. Our football team didn't win many games, but they were enthusiastic. Some highlights of their season were the football boycott, and the boy cheerleader controversy. Everything in the new school had its own odor—for instance, George Tocher smelled like an onion, John Ava like a boa constrictor, and the water smelled like—well, you know. With the new school came new activities. The junior football players walked all over the seniors in Powder Puff, but the senior cheerleaders made up for it. Fall school time was interrupted occasionally by a fire drill or a bomb scare, or maybe an announcement over the horn . Morning announcements became much less boring when the Forensics class started reading them. The rest rooms were subject to activity beyond the normal stuff. Somebody kept kicking a hole in the wall in the boys’, and Sharon was kept busy sweeping up cigarrette ashes in the girls’. With fall came an air of anticipation: of a new. year, and of new experiences with which to build new memories. 11
