Operator, operator Kim Ferrel Staff As you drift deeper into that peaceful slumber of sleep and the world slides further and further away your peace is suddenly shattered by a horrid noise. Honey, phone, says your mom. What's a phone? you think as you turn over and try to go back to sleep. Suddenly you hear your door being flung open, Will you get up and get the phone! You jump up thinking, Oh! That phone! Everything from Mickey Mouse to Darth Vader has been made into tele- phones. With colors rang- ing farther than the limits of the rainbow, various companies have made sure that there is some- thing out there for every- one. When it comes to telephones the digits are still coming in, but surely they are here to stay. My dad says that l'm on the phone all of the time. l'm not - just when he wants to use it, Tammy Rhodes said. My parents freak out every month when the phone bill comes. They just don't believe that I know someone who lives in Ohio, Monica Stevens said. David Hartsell listens to his headphones while looking over several brochures for TAG activities and projects. MHZ' LLA Susan Mclntosh and friends have no need for a phone when they get togeth- er, they talk about major things at school. ai The telephones are constantly used ev- eryday for students to call their parents or a boyfriend or girlfriend or therapist.

Just Passing B People Editor They are nothing but lit- tle pieces of paper but with just one you can go anywhere you want. Wouldn't you like to have one? Well, you can be- cause they're available ev- erywhere. There is one thing you need to render it effective . . . a teacher's signature. What is it? A hall pass. A hall pass is used for ev- erything. You can go to the bathroom, the office, the counselor's office, the library, another classroom, or even your locker! It's all a matter of convincing the teacher that you need to go to that certain destina- tion. You have to plan your strategy. First, you need to formulate some kind of reason to go to the place. For instance, if you want to go to your locker, say something like, I for- got my book. If you want to go to the counselor's office say, I need to change my sched- ule. Providing that you get by the first part, you're set. You have to remember to be polite to the teacher though because you may need to do this again. Once you're out of the room there are two im- portant things to remem- ber: First, always remem- ber to keep your pass out in case you are stopped. Second, and this is very important, beware of Mr. Barnes! If you are caught, it's all over. You may as well forget your social life and everything that's fun because you're up the creek. Mr, Barnes is strict about passes, but if you don't have one he gives you a warning, Mike Hamil said. If you're looking for danger and maybe a little excitement, go ahead and try to get a hall pass but re- member to be careful when you use it. This student doesn't need a hall pass while he's delivering some balloons to some lucky student with a big surprise. 180 People Brothers Lang and Steven Kirshberger may need to find a special pass to get this sheep into the school quietly. tg
