In the cafeteria there is a low rumble of teachers’ voices gossiping before the strenuous day. Sud- denly, as the clock strikes 7:55, a familiar bell rings. The once empty school abounds with a flurry of activity. Cars race frantically into the parking lot, students break the tranquillity with the sound of slamming lockers, shuffling feet, and ceaseless chatter. From the talent on the field to the skill of the classroom, from the packcd-filled halls to the crowded parking lot, from the Fox Hunt to Rea- ban’s Drive-In, here is where it’s all hap- pening!

MkKING TlfSKE Making time is hard work! When the Class of ’82 entered our hallowed halls 239 strong, the halls suddenly became packed. The other 344 of us found passing between classes a real hazard. At noon, even though they were divided in half, the lunch lines were an endurance test. The lunch had been shortened and more peo- ple than ever ate in the cafeteria, which featured a new menu of Landshire Sand- wiches, fries, milkshakes, cakes, and pies. The problem of how to work in enough time for study and after-school jobs did not change, nor did the conflict between football practice and tests or Barker dead- lines and semester exams. There were still those few who failed to set the alarm in time to get to school before 8:15 a m., and the same group was late every day for sixth hour class. Tempus fugit!
