A few minutes before the bell to catch up on the latest, senior boys in traditional lounging in the front halls, a chance to write on the board all the impromptu bits that make the genes and the equations bearable. For some, clowning is a major; for all it’s sometimes necessary. Long live the Cougar clowns. Darling, I love you. Time-out before their next act.

Spirit At S.D. Who has it? Very few. Where is it? Weil-hidden. Whose fault is it? Yours. People plan. Everyone bosses. Nobody listens. Some people participate and feel silly. Most people prefer to watch. Everyone tries to do the least possible to get by. Everybody passes the buck. Teachers blame students. Students blame teachers. But nobody’s too great to join in. Spirit isn’t only athletics. It’s enthusiasm. It’s doing more than necessary. It’s sharing ideas and interests. It’s pride and concern. It’s being an individual. It’s being a part of South Decatur.
