But what did students do on weekends, besides not go to school? Sue Imbriani said, I definitely go down to the city on three-day week- ends, and sometimes on regular week- ends. I leave on Friday night on a Shortline bus to the Port Authority. Then my cousin picks me up there - I have a lot of relatives down in Queens. Usually we go to movies, go out to dinner, and walk around. We go to Central Park and museums. There's also a McDonalds around the corner, so we're constantly eatingf' Other students worked on week- ends. Laura Lofink said, I spend most of my weekend working at the Mod- ena Holiday I-Iouse, a rest stop on the Thruway. I'm a cashier and waitress there. HA lot of people that come in are real weird. One guy that came had a fur coat on down to his calves and then on his feet had spiked heels. One of the couples in school, Bob Steele and Pam Toth, spent their weekends together.

She said, In the fall, Bob likes to watch football games on Sunday. And we always bet on which team would win. Usually Bob won. During the winter when football is over, we go ice-skating, and skiing at Highmount. Then when spring comes around, we like to go hiking in the mountains, especially at Minnewaska. We also both love to go motorcycling and flying in Bobis father's plane. In summer we have lifesaving so we are always around water. I am a lifeguard and Bob teaches lifesaving. This summer he is going to teach me how to water ski at Orange Lake. I-Ie has a boat that we use all the time. We always have something to do whatever the season is. Melissa Monroe liked to just take it easy on her weekends. She said, 'LI like to get a good nightis sleep, and I like laying around relaxing. Somedays I'll get up and do anything thatis going on. Desiree Diaz said, 'tOn weekends I try to cram every minute of my time with everything I can do. I like to go out with my friends to fool around and have a good time doing crazy things because my friends are abso- lutely nuts. I love to swim in warmer weather 'cuz it's my favorite thing, and I mainly like to get a tan. Students aren't the only people who waited for weekends, though. Teach- ers did too. Mr. Kevin McFadden said, 'SI spend time with my family on weekends and visit my folks when I can. Mr. Saxton said, Since Iim athlet- ically inclined, I cross-country ski in the winter, cut firewood, play bas- ketball. And when the weather's nice, I golf, go swimming, play softball, ten- nis, and jog' Some teachers, like students, worked on the weekends. Mr. john Nash said, Saturdays I usually work fixing and tuning pianos. Then on Sundays it's church and family day. Senora Tapenes digo that she spent her weekends correcting papers, go- ing to the movies, and visiting rela- tivesf' Perhaps Mr. Zifchuck captured the spirit of weekends best when he said, 'tWeekends were made for . . .

fo? Sports Bod -beautifiers thletics is no longer the jocks' sa- cred sanctuary. It's become a world- environment awakened by the interest in physical health: in jogging, bicy- cling, walking, all-natural foods, and Warm-up suits. Even teachers are joining the ranks of the body-beautiful . Mrs. Drutt- man started a fat class this year for teachers who Wanted to lose weight. We do everything: stretching, bending, pushing. But no calisthenics, and no grunting. Mrs. Druttman taught movement exploration. As she explained it, get a picture in your mind, then you act it shed pounds out in movement. wx Pretend you're a marionetteland all your strings are tightened up. The puppeteer loosens the strings: first your right arm, then your left arm, then your feet. And then he tightens them all up again. The fat class met in a relaxed atmo- sphere: lights turned low, modern mu- sic as a back-drop. We all laugh at each other, said Mrsg Druttman. We talk about diet, things like beauty secrets: hot oil treatments, milk baths, almond facials, lemon rubs, and the way to more beautiful bodies.
