Students took a special joy in throwing out Well, this was the end. The halls were quiet as we cleared out our lockers and turned that combination for the last time. We piled into cars and trucks to head for the lakes or maybe stayed behind to talk to that one favorite teacher who had helped us through the year. Cheers and tears mingled as seniors looked about realizing this was it. Even the juniors felt a twinge of excitement at being next year's seniors.

40 Yukon . . . ore Than Iu t Bedroom Communit What a difference a year can make, especially if you live in Yukon. Yu- kon is one of the fastest growing communities in Oklahoma and in the past year has obtained 12 new businesses, 2 new housing dis- tricts, and a new elementary school. Many people refer to Yukon as a bedroom community , which means that people live in Yukon but shop and work in Oklahoma City, but recently this has been ex- posed as a falsehood because of Yu- on's sudden expansion. Yukon may not be as entertain- ment-oriented as Oklahoma City, but it provides many activities and services for its citizens. High school and junior high guys spend many hours building up their mus- cles at the Community Center and almost all the communityl churches provide youth activities t roughout the year.

He is managing editor of the Yukon Review and has worked on the staff for seven years. Mr. Whited has been editor for about two and a half years. When first at the Review he was a hotog- rapher and sports editor. Affer four years of climbing, he became the top editor. He never majored in Journalism but rather in Theology and Teach- ing. His career changed while he was a minister in Missouri. He was working as a disc 'ockey on the side. He later found a job on the newspaper where he was living. He moved to Yukon two years later and settled into his new job. I en- joy my work and I think we will be staying , he said, As editor, Mr. Whited is responsible for the news content, laying out the front page, taking care of the editoral page and decidin what stories and pictures should be put in to the paper. The pictures are very important , he added. Last year he was awarded Rotarian of the Year and this year he is president of the Rotary Club. He as been attending the Town and Country Christian Church and his services to our community are greatly appreciated. The YHS yearbook staff along with the Scene Staff would like to thank Mr. Whited and the whole Review staff for the help they have ro- vided and the time they have taien to put out our paper.
