26 - student life Curious customers from around Tioga County converged upon East Avenue this October to witness the grand opening of the new A8tP and Ames stores. Construction began a year before, but unexpected soil conditions created delays and put off the expected opening for Christmas shopping the previous year. One of the largest shopping complexes in the area, investors were anticipating a build- up in population between Mansfield and Wellsboro and a trend toward a more urban setting for the county. Shoppers who are concerned with comparison buying and a wide variety of selection are pleased to see such a wide selection of items, ranging from groceries to auto parts. TI-IE RUSH WAS O -i Frank Dunham the boy on the wagon proudly rode past the site of Dunham s grocery when he was only five years old 1 m ?nu 'X-vm... -5395: 4..,,,,m Ames, a major chain store, was a new concept for the citizens of Wellsboro However, these businesses are just the be- ginning of a chain of new stores to be opened in Wellsboro. In the center itself, plans are already being put into action for several other types of stores. These new en- terprises open up many job opportunities and bring in out-of-town customers for the previously established businesses.

28 - student life L YOUT FATIGUE TO0K ITS TOLL after a severe plague of picas peaked We started out as kids, exuberant and bursting with energy. The majority of our staff was inexperienced-unlike those in the past. It had to begin somewhere. In Septem- ber 1975, we decided it was our time to grow. Many problems arose but were over- looked. Debbie and Connie were too socially oriented to give up football games, plays, and imperative basketball action. Friends played a big part and success was coming hard. This seemed so true when the question arose: stay here and work, or go out and have a good time? Jody, our best writer, tried so very hard to overcome the obstacles in her path. First, she had no time for us, then there was ad- vanced composition, on top of that, she got sick. Somehow, thank God, she always pulled through giving us a little extra each time. We never would have made it without her. After many trying and heated arguments, we finally convinced the juniors that they had to learn. In order for them to learn, they had to work if they wanted a yearbook to call their own. They had to have a back- ground to base their ideas on. Hopefully we've taught them how to put it together and how to deal with the pressures along the way. There was one person who, contrary to popular belief, enjoyed every minute of splitting headaches, upset stomachs, and the icy temperatures in the dead of Winter. This of course, was Ms. Owlett. Without her these pictures wouldn't have captions, lay-outs, wouldn't have clothes lines, and our staff wouldn't have sanity. She held us together when we fought, yelled at us when we laughed, and laughed at us when we cried, She was a typical Mom,'. Next door in B-37 lives a man who pre- fers Cyrano de Bergerac to Romeo and Juliet. fOnly because the balcony scene is better.j Mr. Stahler has had his red pen on everything written for us since long past the time we can remember, He hasn't been here forever, but he'll be with us forever. Mr. Stahler was a fortunate man, he got a fantas- tic student teacher who knew how to do everything. Miss Gerhret had a big shoulder which everyone cried on at one time or another. She could write, draw, and tell us secrets of the Owlett household. Week nights were spent after school hours, deadlines weren't met, and life in general was a mess. We did cheers in the halls, watched practices in the gymnasium, and got just plain weird when the tensions got too heavy. Even so, nothing was wasted-we always got something accom- plished. This book may be stashed away in a closet for a few years, but keep it as a treasure, a memory of the best years of your life. We just want you to know that we gave it all we had. In twenty years, dig it out, clean it up, and say to someone proudly, This book was made for and dedicated to the senior class of 1976. It wasn't so long ago-and I was in that class. - vlgw For the second year in a row, yearbook received first place for the best float in the Homecoming parade-a comparable replacement for the Vette eater.
