Students Except Privilege Readily p Lxeing new to Rubidoux, freshmen were also new to off-campus lunch. Last year, in junior high, they had to stay in one little area at lunch time, with staff forever present and watching them. But this year was different! Freshmen found they could go anywhere they wanted to, with the exception of Alpha Beta Super- market, and not have someone around making sure they weren ' t getting into trouble. I like having the privilege of going off campus during lunch, even though I don ' t often utilize it. confessed Lisa Fillmore. Other ninth graders expressed similar feelings. I like going places at lunch. It ' s pretty rod. The food ' s OK too. exclaimed Gordo Lopez. Fresh- men took full advantage of their new- found freedom. A W, Stop-n-Go, and arcades became some of their favorite haunts. No longer did they feel they were be- ing babysat. With permission granted by their parents, freshmen scurried to school to receive their lunch pass. After obtaining the treasured off-campus pass from the attendance office, they could leave the school grounds during lunch for as long as they liked, providing they were back in time for their fifth pe- riod class. Of course, not everyone went off- campus. Some people preferred to eat at the snack bar or cafeteria, but that ' s OK. 1. Patty Cunningham strolls off campus for lunch. 2.

ir i H ■ 1 1 M4r I — i ■ Galloger, Thomas Floats Travel In Annual Parade I Noxember 5, 1982: As fifth period comes to a close, spirited Rubidoux stu- dents wait for the bell. When it finally rings, doors are flung open and hun- dreds of pairs of feet fly from the school rooms. Today is that special day; Home- coming day, when the annual home- coming parade is held. On Pacific Avenue, behind the school, the parade vehicles assemble in the order they will be traveling down the parade route. The homecoming queen candidates get on the appropriate cars, and then come the floats. For many sen- iors, juniors, sophomores, and of course, freshmen, the floats represent many hours of hard work, that had to be performed to perfection for the judges critical eyes. Chris Boyer, Freshman class president remarked, For one thing, we made our float in practically one night. I ' m really, really proud of everyone who pitched in to help; my friends on council and the dedicated freshmen who stayed up all night to work. It was well worth the ef- fort. Expectant faces look on as judges go around and look at each class master- piece. Then the results are made known. Freshmen, unfortunately, come in fourth place. But at least they didn ' t come in last. ■ ■ 1. Accompanying their class float, members of the Freshmen council and their classmates show their class in 1 . 2.
