6 . . . Opening A M m.s the first six-weeks grading period rapidly came to a close, and September became Oc- tober, life settled down to a daily routine. As Sterling vacated the campus, Ranger Blue slowly gave way to Gander Maroon and the cross-town rivals settled in for the rest of the day. Baker Road Baptist Curch down the street became the scene of afternoon faculty meetings, club meet- ings and even math tutoring sessions. Life con- tinued and the unusual gradually became the norm. Originally, Lee’s building was expected to be finished by the first of December. As the weather became cooler and the holidays drew near, the date was extened due to construction delays. It didn’t seem to matter, though, because we adapted to the situation and chose to make the best of it. Oerman Club member Barbara Pe- cy Sessions, a Junior, gather around to trash, Leigh-Ann Wade.
