by Donna Stone Tests, homework, pop quizes, and Senior Math! These are just a few aspects of a student's life from 8:30 to 3:00. But is there life after 3:00?

Working for extra money is one way of spending their spare time. As one student said, ttWorking keeps me out of trouble at home because Pm always busy. Other male students find great satisfaction in being members of the Hot Rod Association, and keeping their cars spiffy. Who could forget those booming Saturday nights which wouldn't be alive, without buzzing Frisch's or McDonaldis? Working, four wheeling, buzzing Frisch's, intramurais, and just having fun are all ways that S.C. Students par- ticipate in to enjoy their after-hours life. .T' : n'Evhi. ... ' V y i?
