OPENING one? Ili 0 U f Karen Manhart Vacation was all I ever want- ed this summer. l planned to take it easy and relax, but I had to start getting ready for my trip to Ten- nessee in early June. I decided to go with my 4-H ex- change group so I could meet more people from my county. I thought it would be a fun and an exciting new experience. We had to take a bus all the way to Ten- nesseeg thank goodness, it was air-conditioned. One person l met on the bus was Kay Weller. I was surprised to find out she was also from Silver Lake. One must be at least 14 years old and a 4-H member to go on this trip. lt is for both boys and girls. To raise money we had to sell grapefuits and oranges. This wasn't enough, so we also had to sell tickets for a radio. I must say, I made more money on the radio than I did on the fruit. I was happy to find out I had sold the winning ticket to Chris Harding. Even after I sold all of this, I still had to dig a little money out of my pocket, When I arrived I stayed with a girl that was my own age. Her name was Holly Harris. Holly was in the same grade as I am, which made the trip even more worth- while. I went places with Holly's family and with our Kansas group. The most exciting thing that happened to me was my first airplane ride. Holly's father was a pilot and took us up for a ride. It was a neat view. Everything looked so small. It seemed like we weren't even mov- ing when we were really going 100 miles per hour. Another thing Holly and I did was go to a play about Hans Christian Andersen. l also had fun when we went to the mov- ie Jaws 3-D. As a group we went to various places. One place we went was Opryland. I like Opryland and the Dedicated students and teachers spent time during the summer at school preparing for new year Early Birds While some people were tanning, swimming, and goofing around, others were coming in early to pre- pare for the year. Newspa- per staffers had to make calendars with the dead- lines on them. Senior co- editor Nancy Mohler said, l'rn glad we came early because we were a more organized staff. People on the yearbook staff came in to plan the page layouts. Sophomore Gail Etzen- houser said, lf we didn't come in early, it would have been tough to start. Stock up the dektol.

I nMN,,.,..0-a ' , , 5--H ' . ,,., H New Wave Look. Polka dot hose and bright checkered mini dress prove to be staples of a new waver's diet as modeled by Maria Shell. With ca- reer plans in international rela- tions, Maria will have to be able to dress appropriately for the differ- ent cultures. With this combina- tion, she's already begun. Preppy Look. Sporting an oxford shirt, white pants, and tie, Daron Howard dis- plays a preppy fashion mummy and dad would be proud of. When he leaves the nest for col- lege, Daron will be ready to pal around with everyone in this outfit. Casual Look. After a shift at the hospital, Jim Hurtig slips into something more comfortable in the form of OP. tOcean Pacificl corduroy shorts and Senor Lopez of Santa Barbara top. Following a busy day as a physician, Jim will need to relax with a stroll on the beach, for which this outfit is perfect. oPENiNc A 1 Y GJ 0 . og QS . 0 JK.-N Cvvff t ,,..- jamie-xi A 'L' 'Fla W -- . 9 R' A- mfr: - V, L! l Ea4. yA.Vl7lb Ar ., by Patty Kennedy Mini's are in. No wait, was it walking shorts or dol- phin shorts? Levi's or Lee's? Or was it oxfords with ties or maybe polos and vests? Every year it never fails. I buy new outfits in August and by November l must update my wardrobe. Then in April a whole new fashion fad is sweeping the nation, and l get caught in the crosswind. With the gleaming eyes of a fiend, l descend upon the unsuspecting salespeo- ple with my weekly pay- check burning a hole in my month old jeans, By the time l leave the boutique, there have been at least two salespeople bursting into tears, and a mob de- manding a lynching. As I walk into my house, my mother faints at the sight of my packages as if she's seen a ghost. How can l make her understand that being in fashion is im- portant to me? Maybe someday when l'm 60 or 70, l'll wear the house dress with big fuschia dragons that she thinks is gorgeous, but for now, l'll stick with my Levi's and my Nike's.

OPENING rides, but it's not as much tun ll Worlds of Fun, said senior Kay Weller. Another place we went to Elvis Presley's home. lcouldn't lieve how beautiful it was when l stepped inside the doorway. Every room had something different about it. After we had taken a tour through his house, we went to see his gravesite, which was quite pret- ty. Wow, weren't his suits and cars neat, said Dona Brown, our group sponsor There was also a souvenir shop where one could buy any record he had ever made When people talk about south ern hospitality they mean it I felt right at home soon after my arrival at Holly s house The language is a lot different than in Kansas Tennesseans have a slight accent They say ya ll in stead of you all Soon I was speaking with a southern drawl was our toga party We told a cou ple of boys we were having a toga party so they dressed up in togas When these boys got to the toga party they found out there wasn t a party We really fooled them I had a lot of fun on this trip and made several new friends During the year the exchange group from Shawnee County will host teen agers from Tennessee I can hardly wait I ll I The event that was the most fun l ,Qi ' W?
