The picnic tables provided freshmen with an eating place. For the freshmen wanting to go out for lunch, the tables were the perfect solution.

These words will get a weird reac- tion. Evoking this response was the new rule restricting freshmen to campus. According to school board member, Dr. Bill Rector, the is- sue of closing the campus has been around for over five years. Parents have wanted to close campus, so after several years of parents proposing the idea to the school board, the board reacted with a closed campus for freshmen. One reason the school board decided on this new rule was for the safety aspect. Most freshmen are not old enough to drive, therefore, it would mean too many students in one car, increasing the risks for ac- cidents. Parents were both- ered by the thought of their child rushing from place to place in a car during the amount of time the students had for lunch. Also the school board con- sidered that freshmen needed to be oriented into the new sit- uation of high school. We want students to see closed campus as a choice lmade by the school boardl rather than as a penalty, explained Rec- IOP. The school board wanted the students to see that the lunch period can be spent two ways. One option was by run- ning around the town in a car. The second choice was reta- king tests, having help in clas- ses that grades are low in, and making up work. One parent stated that with the closed campus students won't have the oppurtunity to get pot lwhile they're off cam- pusl, or other drugs. But Kay McDaniel, a parent, disagreed with this statement, and she is for open campus. She believed her children are responsible enough to leave campus. Freshmen are now worried about a closed campus for so- phomores, but according to Rector, this is not in the best of interests of the school. The more students that remain on campus, the more food school must provide. Right now the school would have problems providing enough food for all four grades, and students have demonstrated to the school that they can use their time wisely during lunch. . w. Frankun CLOSED CAMPUS Eg , ,ages What's there to do now? wondered Angela Iohnson. Having an hour and ten minutes for lunch caused freshmen to think of creative things to do in order to fill the time.

Babies, hippies and Greeks also treaded down hallways during the week of homecoming. Through out the week stu- dents participated in various events in which they could show their spirit. Each day of the week was assigned specific dress codes by the cheerleaders. Monday was Baby Day. Students di- gressed back to their toddler days, wearing diapers of white trash bags, bonnets, and suck- ing pacifiers. Hippie day was highlighted by students dressing reminis- cent of attending Woodstock. Wednesday many came to school clad in togas made of sheets ranging Garfield design to satin. Next came Halloween day. Various costumes were worn by students and teachers alike. Cindi Puccini enjoyed dress- ing up at Homecoming be- cause it gave everyone a chance to participate in the Smithson Valley victory by making 'Antler Pride' visible. Throughout the week clubs and classes prepared their floats and cars for the parade competition. Classes also took part in a competition to raise the most money. For each dol- lar deposited into the classes bottle, the class received a bal- loon to be released at half time. The class competition helped develop a sense of pride in classes. They pulled together to donate the most money, said Margaret Roun- tree. On Thursday afternoon each class participated in the hall decoration contest. Crepe paper streamers and signs were taped on the walls as each class tried to out do the other's hall. Later that evening the bon- fire was burned. The tradition- al inferno blazed, lighting up the area behind the school. The bonfire was memorable for Albert Newman because my friends and I put a lot of effort into building this bon- fire to make it great. The flames rose far overhead as the cheerleaders lead the crowd in spirit yells. The excitement of the previ- ous days, the class competi- tions, andthe bonfire lingered through the night, leading up to the final day of Homecom- ing week. - M.
