l YI -l 3 I W ' N As 5 J' Being seventeen and hasing the pressures of adulthood weighing more and more heavily on our backs with each coming day, has made 1984 a year of indecision for grade 12. The future tmuch like our math marksl looked frightening and bleak. We had come dotstt to the wire, we needed help and guidance. and we needed it fast! The answer to our prayers was a mystical gypsy fortune teller, Miss Esmerelda. She alone could foretell our futures by reading our palms. This is what she saw: .l.R.: A pattern resembling weasel tracks 'was found on .leff's hand. He would undoubtedly become a fur trader. .I.S.'s bleached, faded palms foretold of a fulfilling life as a missionary for the albino pygmics of remote N.E. Africa. N.V., according to Miss Lsrnerclda, would play for the B.C. Lions U0-Joll. T.C.'s fig-zaggy palm lmes indicated an electrifying career as bass player for Duran Duran. KK. unfortunately would have his life cut short in his twenties, probably from sharing a one-room apartment with Christie Brinkley. LQ. - Miss Esmerelda had great difficulty deciphering the tangle of intricate cleavage of John's paltn. She ltad to leave in order to consttlt her hand-readers' dictionary. K.S.'s leg line isas disjointed, ssarntrtg ot potentially high susceptibility of injury to the leg. K. would most likely follow in the footsteps, or rather tracks, of the infamous Nlr. lronside. CM. showed a definite inclination toward acting in lront of small children. Miss Estnerelda concluded that Cf would either host a kiddy tele-show or become a child rnolester. l.ll. 4 detnntels the nest Leo Tresrno.

fl A new face indeed. A very' old face indeed. 4 , l't V I H8 .-si.. The lace we all know so well A dark hill rises into the twilight sky, climbing ahoye the wreckage of a past civilization which litters the surrounding plain. At the crest of the hill a man's silhouette stands revealed against a blood red sky. An almost indiscernible greeti glow emanates lrom tlte man's clothes and skin, while the words hang your head 'till it falls off adorns the front of his grimy, ragged tee- shirt. A large stone-blade axe hangs frotn his belt atid he supports the heayy' club at his feet with one hairy hand. These weapons, dangerous though tltey may hc. are not the fearsome part of his appearance. No. it is the four soiled and stained ties draped around his neck which strike terror into tlte hearts of his enemies. These ties are decorated with faded colours and pat- terns which represent the four clans of tlte Cieorget. .i legendary' race of men who were tlte fiercest warriors ot' tlte past age. Only' the greatest of tltese ttiett could wear the colours of all four clans. and they were giyen tlte cryptic nante Twelf-ees . The man on the hill is a twelf-ees. He has come to tltis hill to perform tlte ancient ritual of ills kind. Xs tlte last light fades frotn the sky, he fills his lungs with tlte hot. dry' air, and prepares to giye yoice to ltis deepest thoughts. lle says: ''hoogahoogaltoogahoog.ihoog.i- boogaf' Such is tlte price of being a tw ell'-ces. lly Ntew.ii1lt.i' it-is
