The New Addition Club has fun helping new students by showing them the ropes. You can make good friends that way, junior Gretchen Pahany said. Hyline supplied an enter- taining service with performances at sporting events and Zenith, while the newspaper and the yearbook provided similar serv- ices in addition to news and vital information. journalism is alotoffun, but it's also a lot of hard work to pro- vide a yearbook that reflects ev- eryone in the schoo1, freshman Raquenel Stephens said.

HIECKS, ALANCES osts force clubs to budget M-O-N-E-Y: the name of the game when it came to the wants and needs of organizations and their members. Considering the alternatives, clubs not usually labeled as fund raising organizations turned to the pockets of fellow students to put bucks into their billfolds to budget t-shirts, prom, publica- tions, scholarships and contest expenses. I always see different clubs selling things to make money. There are always people asking you to buy something for their club, freshman Stacy Harrington said. The Featherduster, a wel- comed diversion during class on distribution day, also needed big bucks to operate.

Making money, for whatever reason, meant looking for some- one with an open checkbook to buy club paraphernalia. N l Thvf' 1418 ORGANIZATIONS Q LAQMEETING OF THE MINDS
