EDWARDS TERILEE EDWARDS MELVIN EMBREY Press Box Vandalized After so many years of contemporary press boxes, the Class of '8l returned to a more traditional style. Designed by Susan Mathews and Patti Romonoski, all the letter- ing was in Ye Olde English. There were several seniors who spent many long hours painting the box in the summer, They started work around 7 a.m. and finished about ll a.m., every day for over a week. All this work paid off when they stood back and looked at the finished pro- duct. ln the early morning hours of the day be- fore the Yorktown football game, however, disaster struck the beautiful pressbox. lt was vandalized. We found out later three stu- dents were responsible. They paid for their actions. First, they were suspended from school for five days. Then they were taken to court on the charge of defacing public prop- erty. Next, the Yorktown principal saw to it that they spent as much time working around their school as we did restoring the pressbox to perfection. Finally, they were not permitted on W-L property for the re- mainder ofthe year. Through the diligent efforts of the Senior Class, the press box was returned to its ori- ginal condition for everyone to see and to enjoyl I Patty Romonoski, one ofthe press box designers 2.

With the demolition of the old building went the privileges thot once were occorded to Woshington-Lee Seniors. Seniors were once gronted the privileges of leoving the gym first following ossemblies, speciol pork- ing rights, sociolizing during lunch periods in the senior closs lounge, o senior forewell ossemblv, ond o senior tolent show. The l98l Senior sow the ropid decline of these privileges, most to the point of extinction. In o poll monv l98l seniors were found to be unowore thot these privileges hod ever even existed! Some seniors, however, recolled thot in their first yeor ot W-L, the l979 Senior Closs wos trying to enforce the pri- vilege of Ieoving first ofter ossemblies. This privilege, os so mony others hove, hos olmost been forgotten. lt seems thot the only remoining privileges ore the senior fcirewell ossembly ond the senior tolent show, The Closs of '8l's hopes were thot those privileges would not go the woy of the others, but will remoin in the yeors to come.
