Workin Hard ardl orkin ? But mom, why can't l have a job? Ev- eryone else does! This plaintive cry is not as common as one might think among the students at Southbridge High School. In a random sampling, it was revealed that seventy percent of high school students have jobs, with the majority satisfied in their present positions. Paying jobs provide students with an opportunity to purchase needed ameni- ties, although many deposit half of their earnings in a savings account for college or personal use. However, those students who do not have jobs are far from being inactive. A large amount of non-working students re- ported that they are far too busy with ath- letics, extracurricular activities, and the like to responsibly hold a job. Contrary to other views, high school students and jobs, unlike the proverbial oil and water, do mix.

Festive Fun at Fall Festi al This September 11th through the 13th, the grounds of Notre Dame parish were stomped by the feet of approximately one-hundred fun'seeking SHS students. Why the big gathering? It was the week- end for the Fall Festival. Why so many people? Junior John Shaw quotes, Noth- ing really happens in Southbridge and when something like this comes around, everyone makes it a point to go. The Fall Festival, an annual event put on by the parish of Notre Dame, is re- ferred to by most teens as the social event of the year. It is a place where teens come to meet their friends, chance their luck at a numbers game and stuff themselves with mouth-watering fried dough. This is the place where relationships begin and end for students at SHS. Students may attend a dance on Friday night or try their luck at winning a giant stuffed animal or even an extra ten dollars at the Chug-a-Lug booth. The Fall Festival also sets the stage for a variety of new experiences. Freshmen are welcomed into the high school scene with a touch of friendly initiation. Upper- classmen get together for a Unight on the town. Former graduates return to remi- nisce with old high school buddies. Within three days, all of the excitement is gone but the memories of the festival never seem to disappear. l 1 t l t . l E l Erin Montigny and Paul Girard clearly show that love uballoonsl' at the Fall Festival, Above: Jennifer Sheehan and Chris Diani say ll.
