Under the direction of our new English teacher, Miss Kelley, the Gomet's Tale Staff had a fun-filled and exciting year. They visited the Pulaski Democrat on a field trip and sold M8rMs for their activity. One reason for M8:Ms sales was to cover the cost of print- ing the Comet's Tale, which, starting with the December issue was laid out and com- pleted by Staff members. Spe- cial features this year included a 'Dear Gomet's Tale' advice column, extensive music coverage, and a brand- new skiing column for winter issues. Last summer four students, Jim Rowell-newspaper, Dawn Greenfield, Melissa Kuss, and Erin Robbins- yearbook, attended the School Press Institute held at Syra- cuse University on July 22-27. Each day started at 8:00 with breakfast, followed by classes in which the students learned how to put together their newspaper or yearbook. There was an hour lunch break followed by more class- es. Although the work was hard, there was a lot of free time spent in fun. o Organizations School Press Institute WW Front Row: jim Rowell.

Foreign Exchange Students ill- ,bf ...a-...I 5. -- --,Q HHH I I H Front Row: Anders Henriksen, Yoko Fujita. Second Row: Martha Rendon. 3 Organizations Naerum, a city 8 miles outside of Copen- hagen, Denmark, is Anders Henriksen's home. His father, Scott, is an engineer, and his mother, Lise, is a medical secretary. An- ders also has 2 older brothers, Dennis and Christian , living in Denmark. When asked what he thought of our school and town, Anders said it was friend- ly and small . . . kind of an old fashioned town. At SCCS Anders was a member of the var- sity football team where he used his soccer skills in becoming the team's place kicker. Anders also joined the varsity basketball team and had a great time learning the sport. In the spring Anders plans to find out how to play the great American past time and join the baseball team. In Denmark Anders belongs to a sports club- Sollerod, and is on the following teams: handball, darts, badmitton, tennis, golf, cricket, and his favorite - soccer. Commenting about school Anders said that in comparison to students in Denmark, American students don't have much fun and are too serious in both studies and sports. This year Anders has been a guest of the Maurice Hurd family of Sandy Creek. Yoko Fujita's home is Osaka, Japan. Her family consists of: her father, Keigo, who is a doctor, her mother, Mie, and two sisters, To- moko and Junko. Yoko has thoroughly en- joyed her stay in the United States especially our winter season. Yoko discovered that sledding and playing King on the Moun- tain were great ways to pass time during the winter. Speech has been a difficulty for Yoko but she says American education is definitly eas- ier. Yoko also comments that the students in japan are much more serious concerning their studies and japanese students respect their teachers. Yoko's favorite activity at SCCS is being on the varsity volleyball team where she is a key player with fantastic serving and spik- ing abilities. When Yoko returns to Japan she will have another year of high school to complete. Af- ter high school Yoko plans to attend college to study foreign languages. The Keith Tompkin family of Redfield has hosted her stay this year. A guest of the Fred Potter family, Martha Rendon's home is in the city of Monclova, Mexico. There lives her family: one brother, her mother and her father. Martha has re- cently graduated from high school and will continue her education at college where she hopes to study International Relations. Here at SCCS Martha likes the fact that you can choose your subjects to study and that you have free periods during the day. She also enjoys participating on the junior varsity volleyball team. When asked what she thought of our small town, Marth said, I miss going to the movies and the city life, but the farm is okay for ten months. -i
