Frc»hmen Kaien Brdecki and Michelle Goffdl enjoy the viltd bat. The new addition contained all the ingredient» foe the perfect salad, and could be purchased foe I) cents an ounce. Thinking back upon past lunches, you glanced at the clock and your stomach turned at the thought of facing cafeteria lines. Then you remembered the salad bar. which had been installed earlier in the year, and your spirits rose. Anything would beat stan- ding in a 15 minute line for a SI. 10 green tray or a 45 cent tuna sandwich. Brenda Liston exclaimed, I eat at the salad bar mostly because I can t stand lines!” You could have ambled on over to the Skate Machine snack bar. It had just opened and many of you freshmen took advantage of the convenience. If you had a car or knew a friend who did, then you had options most freshmen and sophomores did not have . . . the chance to get away for awhile. Schlotskys, the Spaghetti Bar and Godfathers were the closest, most convenient, and best of all, new, but most peo- ple chose to eat at the less ex- pensive new eateries, such as G.W. Jr.’s and Church's Fried Chicken. Some students admitted to enjoying cafeteria food. Becky Vela said. It really is better, and much cheaper now that we have the salad bar and baked potatoes.” Many students ate in the cafeteria despite other op- tions. Brent Hallum explained. Sometimes 1 do like to get away for the allotted 30 minutes, but it gets too expen- sive to cat out every day. If you were one of the hun- dreds who chose to flock to the cafeteria, you may have recognized a familiar face faithfully taking up money at the salad bar every day. She was the lady behind the salad bar success, Mrs. Fat Chaddick. Everyone seems to enjoy the salad bar. Business is great, so it looks like I'll be doing this for quite awhile, she said. The salad bar created some problems, though. Since the plates are throw-away, the kids tended to throw away the forks, also. We really are beginning to run short on forks!” she elaborated. Whatever and wherever you decided was up to you. If you went out to lunch, your motives were probably much like that of Eric Koehler, who commented. It's nice to get away from the school pressures for awhile. If you stayed at school to eat. your lunch very likely was im- proved by the new salad bar and potatoes. You may not have even eaten; but whatever you did was probably a nice change of pace, even if just for half an hour. 16 . . . Out to Lunch

A date, a game, some flowers, lots of memories. Memories of an unexpected and exciting crowning for An- nette Istre during the 34-0 vic- tory over the Pasadena Eagles October 22. It was a week of glitter and ribbons for Keywannettes and J.R.S.'s. I spent so much time on mums. reminisced Michelle Nebgen. You'd never think it was as hard as it was to make all that glitter and ribbon look nice. It was nervous stomachs and empty wallets for guys and endless hours of dress hunting and hair appointments for the girls. Two activities that occurred during the week were the customary Overhaul day on Thursday, and Hats off to the Rangers on Friday. I realized it was a special day when I saw the cheerleaders in their overalls cheering in the commons, said Kim Montgomery. Many people think that Homecoming came too early, but early or late, it has and always will be a part of the Ranger traditions. Homecoming ... 15
