To raise money, many clubs took the chance of cheating their buddies of bills by vending M 84 M's, Smoked Almonds, Junior Mints, Sugar Babies, and other succulent goo- dies. A common sight was our delirious Econ. and C.A.P. teachers, Mr. Tarrant and Mr. Wentz, breaking out in a cold sweat from junk-food withdrawal and searching for their suppliers to feed their candy fix. One could often find them lurking around in the library hop- ing to catch an M 84 M packing yearbook member who would sell them a box on credit ! There were many athletic teams at Shelton High School and several posi- tions available for those who wanted to give it a try. Every day after school many Highclimbers could be seen tak- ing a chance and trying out for their favorite sport. Even though there was the possibility of getting cut from the team or even injured, these athletes gave it their all and excelled throughout the season. As the end of the week drew near, and Saturday night was right around the corner, you could see the majority of the guys getting nervous because they didn't have a date yet. Here is an- other chance taken. These guys didn't know if they would hear the classic line, I'M ON RESTRlCTlON or if they would just get burned with a flat-out NO! lt usually turned out OK though, for most of them heard the hoped for OF COURSE l'LL GO! Running for a class office was always a big chance to take. Trying to prove that you could do a betterjob than your opponent took a lot of hard work. Even though not all the candidates could hold an office, taking the chance was a healthy, character-building experience. Many Seniors in search of financial assistance took a shot and applied for some of the scholarships offered at our high school. There were many scholar- ships offered and everyone had a good chance of winning. But those who didn't were easily spotted by their red, puffy eyes and the donation can they carried with them to each class.

They are things of the past, ever since our princi- pal Mr. Shaw outlawed them. The foun- dation of our efforts to come to school collapsed when the students heard the fateful news on the morning announce- ments in mid-December of 1982 . . . There will be no more parties to be held in the classrooms beginning Jan. 1, 1983, unless approved by myself. The reasoning behind this insanity was that the janitors were upset over the excess amount of food substances on the rugs. Was this just a hint to us that we are just a large group of SCRUFFY OINKERS? Of course not. It just meant that we made messes that the janitors didn't like. Mr. Shaw should have warned us first, then after we proved ourselves to be slobs he should have taken away that privilege. There was only one way to have a legal party in a classroom. That was to get the gathering approved by Mr. Shaw. This proved to be very hard to accom- plish, so to make it easier, classes held parties without Shaw knowing about them. This is called an illegal party. The student body of Shelton High School would like to extend their grati- tude to all the faculty members for their support Cmost of the timej of the illegal activities in their classrooms. For all those goody two-shoes who went along with their bud Bernie's policy, this one's for you: Roses are red, Violets are blue, Others let us have parties, So, why not you? We weren't that mad though. We could always have a party in our next class. Amazing as it may seem, we got away with our illustrious social gatherings. The main reason for never getting caught was that we cleaned up after ourselves so we wouldn't get caught. Our student body should be very proud of themselves for this accomplishment.
