Infernal Balance Like balloons that had been pumped up beyond their intended capacity, many students felt ready to burst. Responsibilities and orders were being hurled at them from all directions for the first time in their lives. In addition to homework, part-time jobs added on to the heavy work load of student life. Though the pressure offen mounted high inside them, students fought for that necessary equilibrium. Amy Johnston Student Life Divider 7

Senior Steps The end of the year drew nearer. Seniors became rest- less in anticipation of gradu- ation. Advanced placement courses came to a close and final chapters were comple- ted. High school was soon to be a thing of the past. April found juniors working busily on preparations for Prom. A theme had to be chosen and decorations had to be orde- red. Gossip spread through the halls as May 2 drew closer. SHessetakinosherien She bought my dress!” “I don’t have a date yet!” After weeks of preparation, prom night arrrived. Eyes became dazed and heads grew dizzy from flash after flash of parents cameras. Once at dinner, girls fought water stains on their taffeta and boys stuggled with too tight neckties. Couples found themselves shedding shoes upon arrival to the dance. Many boys amused themselves by slip- ping and sliding over the gym floor. Girls shrieked as runs and snags appeared in their new hose. For seniors, the end of Prom still meant three more school related activities. The Senior dinner dance was held in the school cafeteria for students to eat as well as dance and socialize. Good food and good music brought friends together to recall memories of their four years Mini-Diploma Petey Cropp receives ‘his wallet size diploma at practice. The minidiplomas — were passed out the day before gradu- ation. Bob Wallace Sign Mine Tim O’Malley, Jimm — Fore and Scott Caple exchange yearbooks for signing.
