Liz Johnson ponders over what may turn out to be her next Christmas gift. 5 l 2 s Let's Hear It One Mo Bruce Springsteen, Devo, Maynard Fer- gusen, Rick James, Journey, and Alabama all have one thing in common - they're popular teenage music stars. From coun- try, to punk, to soul, to Heavy Metal - teenagers love it. They listen to their music everywhere - car stereos, home sound systems, and of course The Box. Teen- agers simply can't live without their mu- sic. They buy records upon records of their favorite group or groups, and if they can't buy a certain album they just crank up the radio to WBBQ, WTHB, or Rock 106, to hear all the new songs. Parents say the music is too loud, or too fast, but that overwhelming amount of energy, and such is the life of a teenager. One of the best places for teenagers to show their support is at concerts.

Teenagers love their music and show an unbeleivable amount of support. Albumsf25

No, this young man is not about to leave for a cross-coun- try excursion, but he is facing something which will be equal- ly exhausting - Exams! Since procrastination is a student's best friend, one would be correct in assuming that the student did not study over the weekend prior to ex- ams, but as usual he has wait- ed until the night before his first exam. Generally beginning about seven o'clock in the evening, he leisurely lies back The kitchen table. a popular headquar- ters for students to study, is the spot that Sara Benton has chosen to use while studying for Algebra lll. Q K Again? with a bowl of munchies close at hand and half watches the television as he makes his pre- liminary attempts at studying. As the evening wears on, he is slowly and belatedly realizing that it is close to his bed-time. His mother charges into the room. Llp to bed, young man! she cries. Panic! Panic! Panic! He needs at least another three hours of study time. Think! He has an idea. Meekly climbing the stairs with his books under one arm and a flash light under his jack- et, he bends to his mother's wishes. After crawling into bed with the door shut and the light out, he rescues his books and flashlight from beneath the bed where he had deposited them earlier and begins his tedious task. The next morning he stum- bles from bed and into his clothes. After breakfast his mother pushes him out of the door, while saying cheerfully, Exams today. Go get 'em, Ti- ger! A little less enthusiastically he stumbles toward the bus murmuring incoherently, Charge . Exa ms f 27
