Wild pajama parties offered “fun and games” for many girls after school. Vicki finally caught on to Sabn. THS students escape from the pressures and long hours of study after school. Parties, sports, practice, all are means of releasing energy. A place to go, something to do. Whether activities connected with school or just someone’s hang up, the students gather. No studying, no classrooms, together students plan and carry out activities of their own. A release of new ideas, and methods to do old things, and new things to do. A float for Homecoming, a bonfire, old projects, but releases of new ideas. New leisure time activities also show the student’s boundless releases for his energy. Hondas, dune buggies, and airplanes are new interests for students today. Through school planned and self created activities, the students find their own type of release from studies after the school day of- ficially ends. 13

Students find jobs profitable and fun. A release of energy in today’s youth can take many forms. One of the more construc- tive ways is engaging in work after school. Familar sounds are heard everywhere— “Crop that tobacco”—“Hey bag boy, take out these groceries”—the r-i-n-g of the cash register. The modern youth is not afraid of work. He knows his boundless energy will pay off in rewards. Adding to the family income, learn- ing independence, or insuring a successful date on Saturday night, will in the end, jus- tify time well spent. Frank’s after school job consists of packing draperies at a local industry. Ricky and Mickey worked in them “old cotton Fields back home.” % 14
