THE PET SET Most high school students are involved in many activities and have many friends. But many students find a lot of pleasure in a special friend — a pet. Most students find owning a pet very rewarding and challenging. If properly cared for, the pet can demand a large amount of time. But the job goes beyond feeding the cat or dog. It may involve ex- ercising or just grooming the animal. Many students find that pets provide that special “someone” they can relate to. A long walk with the dog may relieve the troubles of the day. Onesided conver- sations with the goldfish may ease the stress of studying. While the current craze is for exotic pets, most TCHS students still preferred more traditional choices such as dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters. Hamsters birds can be easily obtained in local depart- ment stores and local breeders supply the larger animals. Tug-o-war with a rope provides ex- ercise for Sandy Lautner's dog. 12 PETS State Farm Insurance

GETTING AROUND Students got to and from places by various modes of transportation. Cars were mainly used by those who were lucky enough to have one. Everything from the small sports car to the remodeled older cars could be seen parked outside of school during regular classroom hours. Many students worked on their cars to achieve the look they wanted. Mopeds were also very popular. Students had a wide selection to choose from because of the popularity of these motorized bicycles. The moped was very handy for those who didn’t drive, and even for those who did. Motorcycles retained their popularity during the year. As well as good gas mileage, they of- fered an exciting way of traveling. For pleasure or serious travel, skateboards were used by those adventurous enough to own one. Although they were small and easy to care for, they did require a great sense of balance. Bicycles, as always, were very popular. Offering inexpensive transportation and enjoyable exer- cise, bikes were a main way of getting there. For some, walking was the only way. By choice or not, it was by far 'the most popular way of getting around. — J.C. and T.L. Students choose a form of transportation that agrees with their taste as well as their wallet. 14 GETTING AROUND
