Lunchttme Mirrors Chan ge More Pants, More Hair, More People, Less Trash This year the School Board reduced hair and dress regulations to one: they must be neat and clean. Few will probably forget the first drizzly day of dress freedom. Every girl who remembered came to school in slacks, and a few boys came in shorts. But after a day or so one didn ' t notice unless one thought about it. Not only did the people look different, but there were more of them out at once. The single lunch, which students have been asking for for several years finally became a reality. Over-crowding was not the problem some expected it to be, because of a much more efficient snack line. Vending machines were put in and pop- corn was sold at the Friendly Student Store which was also re- modeled this year. SM students, notorious litterbugs in the past, began picking up their trash during the second semester. This was due to a well- planned Pollution Day program held January 28 (Anniversary of the Oil Spill) as a part of the Santa Barbara Declaration of En- vironmental Rights, speakers and films made people more aware of air, noise and water pollution, overpopulation and waste of resources. Most people ' s feelings are summed up in Torben Mah- neke ' s phrase: the best day at San Marcos.

Computerized Cupidizin Computer Plays Cupid But Some Didn ' t Need It The first of about four hundred people began filtering into the cafeteria at 8:30, February 13. They were met by the music of I ' Viends in a room floating with red, pink, and white streamers, hundreds of multicolored balloons and a flashing, heart s|irinkling computer box. The students who had filled out computer cards during lunch received two numbers which corresponded to people who were their ideal match according to the 3 0 IBM machine on campus. They could also (ind their name on an IBM card pinned to the drapes. A blue elvet chair .served as a throne for the Sweetheart Couple chosen by oting from the six nominated couples. Ann C.ressey was honored v ith long stemmed red roses, while the other girls received orchid corsages. Roxy Shinoda and the Usherettes, whose en|oyment in putting on the dance was felt by all, could be seen ser ing punch and cookies. There is a sort of dance which the sponsors always hope for, but which rarely comes through. This one did. .Sweethearts of 19 0 Ann Cres and Dt.in Westutt The sweetheart couples: Beverly Priddy and Gene Townsend; Caminy Shaar and Randy Curtis; Barbara Tathwell and Paul Kurth, Debbie Kokinos and Jack Tillia; and Norm Evans and Lynne Wingenbach. 28 SiiilliiiiBUBiiliittllHfiiUlil ' ' lli
