REAGAN TAKES PERRY COUNTY AND TCHS VOTE!! Tuesday, November 6 was election day throughout the country. TCHS students be- came active participants by voting, working at the high school mock election, or by going out and working with the candidates at the various precincts. Thirty-six social studies students volunteered during study hall to conduct the school election while sev- enteen students worked the polls in Tell City and Troy. At the mock election, the Republican ticket, Reagan Bush, won the presidential election by 226 votes. The Republican ticket continued a winner on the state level with Governor Orr, Lieutenant Governor Mutz, Attorney General Pearson, and Superintendent of Public Instruction Negley. Locally, although Perry County historically is a Democrat stronghold, Reagan Bush won the Presi- dential race. All other con- tests went to the Democrats. Of local interest was the referendum concerning the addition of flouride to the water. The vote was 226 to 163 in favor of the addition at the high school election while 60% of voters in the city were in favor of the addi- tion. Approximately 70% of the student body turned out to vote at school, and 68.8% of the registered voters in the county showed up at the polls. Above: Passing out candidate cards, S.

P.M. PEOPLE Ring . . . it's 3:20 P.M.! The Sagittarius staff decide to see where the students end up! After much observation, it was discovered that stu- dents were practicing for or participating in the play, band concert, sporting events, etc., while others were busy working in order to have money in their pockets. A few were found sitting on the wall, doing research at the library, or cruising on mopeds and in cars. Oth- ers were talking on the phone, working on the year- book, and even studying. Although their activities were varied, all seemed to be busy!
