Stars Can Be ■ Captured Once a star is reached, suddenly other stars, other goals seem easier to obtain. One realized goal leads to other worlds, worlds that lie beyond the first dream, beyond the initial star. Like a long winding stairway, so are our lives, striving for the summit. Realizing our achieve¬ ments, we set new goals which will take us closer to what we will someday become. Success is an emotion that once discovered can never be left alone. —Blaine Vorhees Bobby Burney BREAK TIME — Summer session students take a break from the day-to-day grind of classes and relax on the steps of the Student Union Building.

Stardom is Yours SPIKED — Vicky Vidana and Olivia Swanson pre¬ pare to return an attempted block by Eastern New Mexico Univeristy. PART OF THE GAME — Charles Frazier has his ankle worked on by a Sul Ross football trainer during the Nueva Leon game at Jackson Field. The stars above are bright and free, ready to be conquered by those with the strength and courage. Those who come far enough up the ladder of life often take the challenge to be what they desire to be. Often, to take this challenge is victory in itself. All through life we rise and fall, laugh and cry, but we continue to explore our lives, to come closer to our destiny. The climb is not always easy, but in times of despair, we turn to better times for support and the strength to continue to reach for the top. And the stars are closer. Achievement is not always winning or obtaining what is wanted, but knowing what is sought after, and that it is right for us. This is achievement. Once we decide to devote time and energy to an activity we become special, filled with the desire to become all that we can become. Once this is attained, the stars are the limit. Stardom is ours. — Blaine Voorhees Bobby Burney 6
