I Advances in electronics face Wynne students such as Angela Bailey as they enter the business community. New choral director, Mary Jeff Loewer, rearranges Concert Choir members during one of their manv rehearsals Can't You Feel A Brand New Day Although the construction was the most noticeable change, changes occured inside the school too. Noisy new clocks without second hands and a new bell system that sounded like a smoke alarm took some getting used to. The paint job on the audito- rium and classrooms were needed improvements. Many new faces popped up along with the ninth grade class. The Eng- lish department saw some new addi- tions and re-shuffling. A new assis- tant secretary, Linda Hesse, gave Mrs. Curtner a hand in the office. A couple of unusual students made their appearance, foreign exchange students from Chile and Greece. Even things that were not new seemed better, brighter, and greatly improved.

After School Special Hey, what are you doing after school today? I've got volleyball practice and then I need to study for that big his- tory test tomorrow. O.K., I guess I'll talk to you later. This was just one of the many con- versations heard in the halls each day. After school was a time that both students and teachers longed for every day, though some were bu- sier after school than in class. School related activities kept many students' time occupied. Pop ensemble, cheerleading, basketball practices and club meetings were among those time-consuming activi- ties. Apart from school students found other things to do. They worked, stopped at the Sonic for a snack, made the loop, or got togeth- er for a game of touch football. If there was nothing else to do they went home and watched TV or stud- ied. Let's go to the Sonic after school. Sure thing! Organizations, such as the FTA, often involve students and teachers after the three o'clock tone. Snacking and conversation outside the band room completes the day for these ninth grade students. After School Special 11
