76ey 0«t£y 'TC ecv . . The Lives We Lead We have been told time and time again that in high school we are building our future. The building not only consists of the education we are get- ting at South, but more importantly it consists of the friends we make and the things we do as Archers. Contrary to popular uninformed opinion, Archers don't spend their out of school time hoisting cars or picking fights. Instead we spend our evenings and weekends at par- ties, dances, games, restaurants, or just hanging around with friends. These are the things that memories are made of. Who will for- get their first Prom, the traditional Ivy Day, the effort put into the sen- ior play and the spring musical, the fun we had cruising around af- ter football games, our 'cool'' clothes, the en- tertainment we en- joyed, or the news that affected the world around us? Our days may begin with school, but more often than not, they end with our friends, with our social lives. Our future is being built by the fun and caring that we share with our friends right now, as part of the elite few, the Archers. We know how important these things are to us — if they only knew. — Andrea Muirragui During an educational lunch period.

South Gets Funky As the curtain went up on March 13,1987, South Side became one of the first schools to produce the newly written musical Funky Winkerbean's Homecoming. Based on the national- ly syndicated comic strip, Funky Win- kerbean , the musical dealt with the activities that took place at West- view High during the week before the homecoming football game. Starring in the production were Paul Boyer, as the outcast nerd, Les Moore, who later becomes the school's hero, and Debbi Thatcher as the air-headed majorette, Holly Budd. Others with prominent roles included Jeni Rapp, who played the most popular girl in school, Suzi Peterson, Dan Carson as The World's Greatest Band Director , Harry L. Dinkle, and Derek Ball, a s the show stealing Mean Or Bus Drivin' Man. When asked about his feelings in participating in the musical, Paul Boyer replied, It really was a great experi- ence to be a part of something like that. Directing Funky was Miss Lois Holt- meyer. She was assisted musically by Mr. David Streeter and Miss Christine Shafer. All in all the musical was a suc- cess as it revived the tradition of a spring musical while providing the school with a very entertaining pro- duction. Said one attendant of the show, Funky Winkerbean was a wonderful performance, one which I enjoyed tremendously. — Heather Porter The in kids of Westview High sing It's So Fine To Be Popular. photo by Waiters Junior Don Manco, as Principal Burch, has a few words for Les Moore, a.k.a.
