OF attention nyone observing the cam- pus carefully would notice several hangout accommo- dations provided for a stu- dent's convenience, includ- ing the ’pit', the phones, the lockers, the career center, and the ever-pop- ular vending machines. How could a student survive with- out vending machines? Indeed; They are life savers for many. Re- sponses to the question of whether or not vending machines are a necessi- ty to everyday life here were similar. Of course I think they're a necessi- ty! I'd starve without them. Too bad they're not open more often though!” Jennifer Ceynowa stated. The career center, kept organized by Carol McDonald has been a ha- ven for students. People go there for a range of purposes, such as work permits to job and military informa- tion or just to sit at a table and catch up on your homework. What would life be like without lockers? Fortunately, students wer- en't apt to find out. What do they like most about having them? I love not having to take my books home everyday, I can just leave them in my locker,” Michelle Alvis said. Who uses the pay phones? Why just about everyone does at least once. Tanya Pine replied, What, no phones? My God, without pay phones, I wouldn't be able to keep up with outside life!” Long hair, Levis, and leather vests is what you’d see if you were to check out the pit”. Who are some of the common people who hang out at the covered picnic tables, and why do they hang out at that particular place? Sue Martin answered that with a smile, Some of my best party pals hang out there! Well having all this sure helps make ST a much more pleasant place to be. By Scout Mason.

Backstage, talented performers hast- ily made final preparations. As the lights dimmed, the show began. On the nights of October 15th and 16th, the spotlight illuminated a stage filled with a wide variety of Santa Teresa talent. The show was considered an im- provement over last year's perfor- mance for many reasons. Mr. Reed, drama teacher and variety show ad- visor, stated, “Some of the same peo- ple from last year matured, which made the performances better.” Perhaps the performer who “stole the stage” was June Flores, display- ing her captivating voice as she sang “Don't Cry Outloud and “If you're not here”. Senior Heather Conley stated, “I was awestruck by the range of June's voice.” The inclusion of a live band made the show better than last year's. The band, composed of Jason Schroeder, Tim Montijo, Brad Kantlehner, and Matt Griffin played backup for Flora Larez and other acts in the show. Many people felt the abundance of new talent added to the show. “It was a lot of fun because there were a lot of new faces on the stage, not just the usual crowd.” commented senior Michele Sheehy. On the way out, junior Steve McCutcheon remarked, “I enjoyed the entire show; but. in particular, I found the comedy acts to be the highlight of the evening.” The only problem was that both shows ran an hour overtime. Mr. Reed admitted at the conclusion of the show, “Had I accurately predict- ed the length of the program, I would have cut it down, although I would have had to cut some good stuff.” The Variety Show again proved to be an enjoyable exhibition of talent.
