KISSING can do wonders for a person. When you cut your little finger the pain almost kills you till mom kisses it and tells you that it’ll be alright. As you grow older it becomes more a part of your personal life. Your first date was all thumbs. You almost ruined it by wondering if you would get to kiss her good night. Finally that time comes. It happens, you're almost knocked off your feet till, to your surprise something hap- pens unexpectedly your braces get stuck togeth- er and your whole evening is ruined after all. 8 Opcning LOVE is a word that stands out among a thousand other. Love is when students at Saks High stand together, hand in hand, singing the Alma Mater. Love is when students can help each other correct their mistakes instead of laughing at each other. LOVE IS .. . KS HIGH!

INTELLIGENCE is hard to come by. Tackling the Chemistry or American Government book is only part of the hard studies students go through. Hours of studying go into not just these classes but others as well. Being smart isn’t easy! JUNK FOOD is the perfect snack for a person with the munchies.

MISCHIEVOUS describes many students. Es- pecially those considered to be class clowns. Some teachers are fortunate not to have a mis- chievous person in their class, but others are not so fortunate, having to put up with all the pranks and “funnies” these students try, most of the time succeeding. NEWS contains things that were a lot different than when your mother sent you off to school. Your world was Captain Kangaroo and the kids on your block; your greatest worries, making perfect ovals and remembering your ABC’s. As you grew bigger, so did your world and your worries. It was a world in which the biggest news came from the barrel of an assassin’s gun, the attempt on the President, Ronald Reagan, has been voted the top story of 1981. It was a world that saw the Iranians get the last laugh on Carter, who hoped that he could leave office with the hostages free. It was a world that saw the first fixed-wing space vehicle, Columbia, roar into space from Cape Canaveral, Florida and land itself 54 'h hours later at Edwards Air Force Base in California. In a world that sometimes seemed too serious, you had to remember not to take yourself too seriously. After all, it was a world that still found time to smile. Opcnmg 9
