At first you are content to drive only on weekends, but then the no- tion finally hits: you can drive to school! Wrong! You can't drive! You're only a sophomore and they don't get parking here. Y H0 ORES MISS UUT sophomores to drive, says discouraged sophomore Andy McMullin, We hardly have enough spaces for the juniors. In fact, many un- fortunate juniors have to park in the makeshift lot be- hind the gym. This started with the growing classes. In case you were still in a summer coma, earlier this year Dr. Johnson announced that the school had its highest enrollment in its history. So the student population was growing, but why Wasn't the parking lot? it dosen't look good. Country Day ruined its chance to lay out more parking spaces by building those tennis courts out back. Certainly, the cho- sen few tennis players will argue against me on this, but I dare say that 50 or more extra parking spaces would benefit the school more than four tennis courts do. All we could do is hope the Ad- ministration and Business Office would take care of this problem. by Johns Hopkins spaces.

Over the past couple of years, the Country Day park- ing lot has been filled with fast and exciting cars, and this year was no different. When one walked out to the parking lot, he would find several types of cars repre- senting several countries: from Japan to Germany, the United States to Sweden. The most popular car in the school parking lot was obvi- ously the Jeep. There were four Jeeps in the lot and all have their own distinctive styleg from fat tires and cus- tom wheels to bikini tops. This year, the classics have also made their presence felt in the parking lot. Such cars included an older BMW coupe, a Volkswagen Bug convertible, and a Triumph Spitfire. When students were asked why they own the cars they do, they responded that their cars are in with the present trends and that they are fun to drive. Other cars which could be found in the parking lot include BMW's, Mazda RX-7's, Volkswagen Rabbit's, Toyota Supra's, Celica's, and MR-2's. Whether your interests lie in speed, looks, or just sheer fun, this year's group of cars had it all. by Wardy Plotkin 161 and joy of senior Chris Eggleston, 1.
