G . Far Out .QZSKIRZ 2'3.t'T'?f 'S s most people find out when they first come to Van, a small town like this often does not have as much to offer as any big-city town. For the most part, entertainment is restricted to whatever one can find to do when one gets tired of everyday activities such as school and work. Although to the untrained eye of an outsider, there may seem to be absolutely nothing to do as far as leisure time is concerned, different methods of enter- tainment have been discovered by those few enterpris- ing people that just have to have something to do every minute of the day for nightj. This is a really nice town, but sometimes doing the same things over and over again can get pretty bor- ing, Senior Susan Preston said. Whenever I find something interesting or different to do, I jump at the chance. Some methods of beating the boredom that have been discovered by fidgety individuals may not be favorites of the adults for the lawj in any small town, but when necessity calls, it is human nature fespecial- ly for teenagersj to listen . . . this means finding whatever there is to do and doing it Qwhen it can be Q . ma Xflfffffl K., FACTORY OUTLET gotten away withlj. I try not to get into troubleiand I usually don't,I Freshman Steve Schmidt said. But sometimes I ge so bored I just do something that I shouldn't and en up getting in more trouble than it's worth. Hanging around at the Gulf station until three ci four in the morning is just one of the many pastime: that have been discovered by kids who just can't bea to stay home. Another favorite is parking cars in fron of the Food Center and visiting with friends. The gameroom is also the place to be when there is al: solutely no other place to be. Then there is always the well-loved hobby of driving around town at night witl' the car windows rolled down and the radio blaring. Nc one seems to mind this breaking of the sound barrier and if they do, one can never hear them screaming about it anyway. Though, because of its location fwhich is far away from any type of civilizationj, Van may sometimes pro ve to be a bit uneventful, but when comparing notes on nearby towns, this one is truly FAR OUT.
