Experience Gained On The Job A majority of South Side's students hold down part-time jobs after school and on weekends. These jobs provide the money needed for Archers to at- tend various events throughout the week and on weekends. To some of the students, their job helps to relieve some of the expenses of college. Our city offers a wide variety of jobs for high school students. Some of these jobs include working for restaurants like McDonalds and Piz- za Hut, grocery stores like Rogers and Krogers, gas stations, and clothing stores. Some Archers even have the opportunity of working outdoors. Not only are students earning money, but they are also learning what it takes to be responsible enough to hold down a job. This op- portunity to learn is a great ex- perience for young people. It helps a student learn how to handle respon- sibility and how to handle money. Knowing these will be a big help for future reference. Above all, the most important factor of having a part-time job is learning to work with and deal with all different kinds of people. Dealing with the kinds of people we do not know is a task that can only be learned through on the job experience. ?J i k. You look pretty big.

Summer, Our Style What do suntans, lakes, vacations, and sleep have in common? Each is part of the three months spent away from school in the season of the year every Archer anticipates . . . summer. As freed students escape the halls of South Side, their minds are filled with expectations of their up- coming summer. Thoughts of algebra, English, and history are quickly ex- changed for those of soap operas, sunbathing, and excitement. Each Archer has his own idea of summer; yet all have the same thought of three months without teachers and homework. Some Archers have jobs to earn money for spending and for their futures while others pass their sum- mers in relaxation. Some Archers also participated in summer sports such as swimming, tennis, and golf, while others went to camp or on vacation. Various summer events take place throughout the city, one of which is the Three Rivers Festival in July. During this festival, many Archers could be found watching fireworks, raft races, and local bands. No matter where or how Archers were spending their summers, it seems that when fall was near, Ar- chers were ready and excited to begin the new school year. 14 A Chris Schlegel, senior, swims with ease towards the finish during a summer swim competition. ► We got the beat drummers Kenny Perkins, sophomore, Lanny Davis, senior, Robert Kl- ingshirn, junior, and Ron Wise, sophomore, seem to say.
