Stu- dents and administrators vvere able to enjoy more sun-filled days.

The first day of school was filled. as usual, vvith confusion and tardies. Many students found themselves reminiscing vvith old friends and meeting nevv people, and just getting into the svving of going back to school after an extended summer vacation. I was happy school vvas delayed because it gave me the opportunity to spend longer finding jobs for my students. HECE teacher Jan Schmidt said. r gg gyyi .tqtt ' QV' T' ' Tl t - T.

In the beginning n i -. wg A Ni , L '- , Teddy's folks were able to spend a few more weeks romping in the sun, as school opening was delayed until Sept. 6. Many were anxious on that day, however, to get back into the old routine. First day consisted of mass congregations in the halls just to see who was still around and what went on during the summer. An ever-pres- ent line of students stood in the office request- ing schedule changes and even schedule cop- ies, because some students always find it diffi- cult to hold oh to the things for any given length of time. The hopeless search for lockers and rooms was apparent as mahy students mind- lessly wandered into classes tardy. Jammed lockers made more trouble for students, espe- cially for freshmen who found it hard enough just to become accustomed to the new sur- roundings. t ltt yttt H . ff: 'if msiit--, ' ' .
