The day may end at 12:35. 1:35, or 2:35, depending on how many courses a student is taking. But just because the school day has ended does not mean that all the school day's ac- tivities are over. Far from it. In most cases there are still many events that take place in school-related areas. Cheerleading, sports, band, club meetings all occur after school. In the free time between school and evening meetings, or after these ac- tivities, most students do their homework. But the importance of the free time is that the students have time to spend at home. The home life of high school students is very much needed. It offers a relief from the tiring school day. Whether it means doing housework or homework or just sitting around, wat- ching television or listening to the radio, it is comforting to be home. Many students don't have a lot of time to spend at home, so their moments at home are very precious. To most South Side students, despite the problems which might occur, home is a place to unwind and just relax. 11

Our Night To Remember ▼ Dancing the night away, Allen Cavender, junior, and Francina Tuesca, sophomore, enjoy each other's company. The nervousness of finding the perfect match in the for- mal attire of a dress and tux- edo was replaced by excite- ment as the night of all nights arrived. This night to be remembered was May 15, 1981, the event, the Junior- Senior Prom. A Little Romance sparkled throughout the Indiana-Purdue Ballroom as the couples crossed the decorative bridge to the rest of the evening. Each of the different couples' names ap- peared on hearts that glit- tered with a certain touch. Fragile, a group featur- ing a South Side student, Laura Forbing, provided a varied evening of music rang- ing from sentimental slows to rock. Dispersing from the ballroom for an hour of inter- mission, the couples changed into both a less formal set- ting and less formal apparel. The dancing music was on the disco side, and at 1:00 a.m. the after-prom was at its beginning. At the wee hour of 3:00 a.m., the lights were fading, and the event was coming to an end. The closing of the evening came after breakfast for some, while others drifted their ways home. ▲ The music was provided by the group Fragile. Laura Forbing. senior, was the lead singer performing at the prom. ▲ Romona Douglass, Mary Oswalt, seniors, and their escorts take time out to enjoy the punch and cookies, while discussing the evening's event. 21
