Smoking lounge is opposed >
Many area high schools have a smoking lounge and many of Maine South students want to know why we do not have one too. When assistnat principal Ken Reczkiewicz was asked this question, he listed the following reasons: "Districts spend a lot of money on a good health program. Their goal is to teach health and to make young people aware of their health. Many people see it as inconsistent;it would go against the smoking clinic and the health program.: "A majority of the parents don't want a smoking lounge-it is unhealthy. Very few parents are in favor of the lounge, said Mr. Reczkiewicz. Smoking also creates hazards such as fires. In addition, it may upset those people who are nonsmokers. Surrounding schools such as District 214 have a smoking lounge, but it is an outdoor lounge. Even then the neighbors surroundinq the school complain about it. A smoking lounge might stop the problem of students smoking in the bathroom but on the other hand, it might create other problems such as:

The International Seminar, sponsored by the Hugh O'Brian Foundation for youth and coordinated by Northwestern University, will use a committee to select state level winners to attend the International Seminar. Once there, the winners will interact with sophomores from the other states and students from in additional countries with major leaders in business, government, education and the professions. The Foundation was formed in 1958 by Hugh O'Brian to seek outstanding high school sophomores and provide them with opportunities for their potential leadership abilities to emerge, develop, and be recognized. Mr. O'Brian hopes to give "tomorrow's leaders" a chance to grow with today's leaders.

I'm going to break that barrier." Laura has always wanted to travel and she plans on visiting family and friends in North Carolina and the West. "I may not have the opportunity to do this again. I want to conquer some things I've been afraid of, to accomplish things my way, as sort of an adventure. I want to do a lot of living before I get caught up in the reality of a career. I don't feel like waiting for the "right time. "Going away for awhile, I will be more independent, and have a chance to get used to that on my own time rather than to be put into a school situation (college) right away. For me, an entire four years of
high school is not the best thing. I do well at school, but something has been eating at me-I think I'll have difficulty getting back into school at first. College is important for me, I'm going to take it very seriously. High school has made me feel confined and intimidated. There have been some exceptional classes and people, but I just don't like it. Too many people are just too concerned with themselves." Laura believes she will miss her friends and school events. "There's an awful lot going on I am going to miss-right up through Senior Week and the ceremony.

Girl recalls experience bij Lauia Coijm
"Girls had a very restricted social life in Chile, South America, AFS exchange student Nancy Irvine said. They had to be chaperoned by an older brother if they wanted to go out." Nancy lived in Vina Del Mar, "a tourist city with many beaches and resorts." _ "The city of Vina Del Mar," continued Nancy, has about 350,000 people; it IS very similar to cities in America. The condo-like house that I lived in had all the conveniences of home except for a telephone. There were, however, many poor people who begged in the streets for money." "I lived with my mother, father, brother, and sister. My family was very well-off. My father, who was a lawyer, owned a race horse; we would always go to the track on Sunday. He had a partnership in a gold mine as well. My mother worked also. She was a travel agent and one of the few women in the city to have her own checking account. .^. "The people of Chile weren't only ^ l e n d l y but openly affectionate, uirls were often seen walking arm and arm; this was not considered unusual. People would stand closer to you as they talked.
"One afternoon, I went to an all girl tea party. We drank tea, ate bread, and talked. It was fun but something that would be considered strange in America. "Another difference," added Nancy "was the personality of the kids my age. I felt they were more immature than teenagers in America. One reason for this is because they are under their parents wing until college. Parents are very protected." Nancy went to school about three weeks during her visit. "I went to a Catholic boys school. Luckily, however, 15 other girls were also enrolled. One interesting custom happened every Monday morning. We would stand out in the courtyard and sing the national anthem while the flag was being raised. The school was also different because no one spoke any English. In fact, I was forced to speak Spanish my entire stay; it was a real challenge. "The food in Chile was pretty similar to America's. The diet, however, contained a lot more starches, like noodles, rice and potatoes. A person was never supposed to eat with his fingers because the people of Chile actually thought it was disgusting. There were some unusual foods, too, like pigs' bowels and

cows' brains. "One of my most unusual experiences was also scary at the same time. Our school took a bus and went up to the mountains one day. The snow was very strange to the students because they had rarely seen it. At 3 p.m. we got on the bus and it started down the hill on our way home. On the way down our brakes gave out. We all got off the bus and started walking down the mountainwe had to walk about four miles, and it was very frightening at the time. "But, as I look back it was quite an experience and very fun, and it brought my classmates and I closer together." page 3

Every morning a portion of the students that drive to school wait in a long line on Talcott Avenue, swerve into the driveway, bounce over the speed bumps, only to encounter the ultimate struggle--finding a parking spot in the Jock Lot. The Northeast Athletic parking lot, or the Jock Lot as it is commonly called, is a very difficult parking lot. It is cramped and overcrowded with very narrow aisles, making it hard to park any car larger than the size of a Triumph Spitfire. Since the students who park in this lot have only had their license for the most, two years, they are basically new drivers. The parking lot is designed so that even for an experienced driver, it would be hard to park in. When new drivers invade this lot, therefore, total havoc occurs. More problems arise when it snows because many times the lot does not get plowed right away. Even if it does, the lines are still covered by
the remaining snow. When drivers cannot see the lines, they end up taking more than one space and parking in crooked 1ines. Skillful manuevering is needed to manage to get into the tiny spots. The drivers weave through the aisles trying to avoid any massive damage, but frequently cars will get hit. Many students will not even park in the Jock Lot for this fear. Kris Juneman '83 said, "I'm af-
raid of the other drivers hitting my car even thouah I know I can handle^ driving through that mess." ^ Something should really be done about the condition of this parking lot. It is much worse than an average let in a shopping center or restaurant. Even the A-wing parking lot is much better than the Jock Lot. Because of the hazardous condi-, tions of this parking lot, be especially careful when driving in it.
How to relieve finals' anxiety attacks Finals. It's a scary word--especially if you haven't opened up any of your books for the last three •months or so. Even if you have been completing all your assignments, finals (or just the mention of them) can give you one big anxiety attack. Calm down a bit, because there are ways you can help yourself feel more prepared and refreshed for what is in store in the next few days. 1. Study with a friend in the same class you are having trouble in. (Make sure that you and your friend keep at it, instead of munching out and gossiping by staying far from the phone and the fridge.) By helping your friend with his or her trouble spots, you are also benefiting from the extra reviewing. 2. Break up your studying time. Une or two hours of straight studying deserves at least fifteen minutes of some activity you do enjoy. Play a game of ping-pong with someone to let out your frustrations, or listen to your favorite album. Don't get too comfortable, though, because it will be time to get back to reality and those books before you know it. 3. After all the studying you've done the night before, you deserve a break. Go out for breakfast or make one at home. Be sure you have plenty of time, and calmly enjoy your meal, page 4
A big breakfast is good for you, (It is hard to concentrate on that ScanTron sheet when your stomach is having a conversation with you.) and the change of pace will perk up your spirits. There are many other ways to re"^^nfi^^iZ

Finals, fun do not mix . The radio is playing; you're in bed with your books open on your lap and your eyes are getting sleepy. You take another sip of Coke, trying to remember what state was formed in 1842 while math and science formulas are dangling inside your head. You look at the clock--it's 2:30 so you decide to go to bed. You quickly fall asleep and have this terrible nightmare. In your dream, you are walking in the street on your way to school for your finals. But, a mugger suddenly attacks you--it turns out to be your estranged math teacher; he robs you of your knowledge-your formulas, laws, and theorems. As a result, you flunk your math final. You become upset and flunk all of your other finals, too. You drop out of school, never go to college.

team. We should win a lot of events, but we lack their depth." The Hawks ended a 7-meet winning streak Friday when they lost to Evanston, one of the top schools in state. The loss has changed Boothe and Head Coach Doherty's strategy slightly. "We have decided to change our goals from immediate ones like chasing Evanston or New Trier, to longrange ones like state. We are working hard to do the best we can in state," said Boothe. "Before state, we just plan on doing the best we can in everything, including New Trier," said captain Jeff Stachelek. The Hawks proved what their best can be last Saturday in winning the Maine South Relays. The team beat the closest competitor. Elk Grove, by 30 points. "We should do well in the rest of the meets. We're one of the best swim teams Maine South has had, because we have strength in every event. A lot of us will go to state, and we should do well there, although conference and districts will be tough because of teams like New Trier and Evanston," predicted Backstroker Fred Palffy.

The varisty basketball team takes on Niles West tonight at 8 p.m. on the Indians home court. The Indians being 0-11 overall^ and 0-2 in conference, will want to play a tough game tonight for a win against the Hawks. Our Hawks are 410 overall. Ed Schmelzer commented, "It's a game we should win. We need all our wins from now on because we haven't given up on our conference race as of yet." The next game the Hawks will play is against the Maine East Demons on Jan. 22 at Maine East. Maine East is 6-8 overall and 0-2 in conference. Senior Steve Poklop said, "Even though it's their home court advantage, it will be a close, physical game. I still feel with our record we can win." The Hawks delivered the Wildkats of Evanston their first conference loss last weekend, 67-50. This vic-
tory puts the Hawks right back into the conference race with the difficult Dart of their schedule out of the way. Evanston has beaten both Niles West and Maine East. Taking the Indians apart 63-28, and convincingly beating the Demons. After beating Evanston, the Hawks have every reason to believe they can overcome conference foes, Niles West and Maine East. Looking back at the Hawks Christmas tournament play, the Hawks captured a second place finish behind first ranked DeLaSalle. The final score being 71-49.
