Letter to the Editor
Student protesters explain their actions Dear Editor and Readers: Some of you may have been wondering what all of the leaflets, posters, and talk about "No Business As Usual" is all about. Here is the real story from those of us who were there. NBAU was a day of national action to protest the arms race, war preparations, and U.S. sponsored massacres and invasions throughout the third world. The main focus of the day's activities was on preventing World War III—no matter what it takes. Armageddon-bound America did not begin its usual Monday morning activities in quite the same routine way on Mon., April 29, 1985, and neither did 11 Maine South students. We chose to miss one day of trivialities such as, "Who are you going to prom with?" and, "Did you get kicked out of the library?" We decided that there was something more important that we could do on that day. Hundreds of demonstrators gathered at cen-

tral locations to chant sarcastically, "Join the Army, learn to obey: kill and die for the USA!" On the way to listen to speeches at a rally at the Post Office at Federal Center, we chanted, "Sick of waiting, let's register: we want World War Three to occur!" Then, when refused admission to the Post Office, hundreds fell to their knees and shouted, "We want to register, we want to die!" This local demonstration was a single part of a much bigger effort. Rallies and die-ins took place at Northwestern University, University of Chicago, U of I Medical Center, Loyola University and dozens of high schools throughout the city and suburbs. At Lincoln Park High School at precisely 11 a.m., over 300 students and faculty members stopped whatever they were doing and "died-in," that is, they laid down, feigning death to portray the results of radioactive fallout from a nuclear war. On the national level, major actions took place in San Francisco, New York, Cleveland, Atlanta, and many other cities and universities throughout the nation. You've also probably heard stories about the arrests and extremely unfriendly police response to the demonstration. Well, the stories are true. At least 37 protestors were arrested in the Loop, including three Maine South students, one of whom escaped from a paddy wagon before arriving at the police station at 11th and State. Two individuals received hospital treatment because of police handling. According to Peter Omarzu, Student Council President of Maine South, Class of
1978, and an organizer of NBAU, "The brutal police response towards the demonstrators shows how seriously the authorities take this type of real resistance as they protect the war machine as it prepares for World War Three." Peter also added that he feels that NBAU day was a definite success. And so did we. Perhaps you are thinking that none of this pertains to you personally. If you are not an inhabitant of the planet earth, you're right. Otherwise, face the facts; in a nuclear war we are all losers. And if you feel that this is too remote for you to think about, we urge you to think again. Even our President, Ronald Reagan, has said, "Man has used every weapon he has ever devised . . . It takes no crystal ball to perceive that a nuclear war is likely sooner or later." Face it, our leaders refuse to stop this suicidal race, so we must join together to put an end to this madness before it puts an end to us. NBAU day was the beginning. Join the resistance and get involved, for what we cannot do alone we can do together. What's the future? Third World War! The day after— Or the day before?

a better way than through our scholarships and now this dance for all our area high school students." Jeff Jones, Director of the YMCA and Chairman of the Youth Service Committee for the Park Ridge Rotary Club, is coordinating the event. The only requirement for admission is a high school ID and evidence of Park Ridge residency. The Omega Mobile Unit is customized for each engagement.

Girls' badminton team finishes state meet The girls' badminton team recently completed a successful season, placing seventh in state. Senior Kathy Zobel took 13th in state in the singles tournament. Junior Lisa Winkler also competed at the state level in singles.
Maine South had two doubles teams qualifying for state: Lisa Gonnella and Sue Nesbit, and Liz Pintz and Jody Broud. Both teams performed well in the tournament. The GonneUa-Nesbit team placed ninth, with Pintz and Broud right behind them in 10th place.

Cliques promote students' ignorance I've always considered myself a unique individual, free and independent (to a degree). You probably do, too. The fact is that it's very hard not to be one: most of us have a brain we can call our own, and only a few of us are Siamese twins. However, there seems to be a good amount of people who function un-independently. Some appear to have their thinking influenced by others, and some simply don't think at all. They base their decisions on the whim and fancy of other people's minds and what they do. Perhaps this may come as a shock, but in an attempt to inform the general public, I must state that such actions have been reported to occur within our very school. Don't panic, now. This could only be something that's "just passing through," like wisps of mustard gas floating over a battlefield. It might not immediately permeate your senses and affect you, but just in case you ever come in contact with it, I'll tell you some of the details regarding the phenomenon.

Day after events as much fun as prom by Katy McGarry Traditionally, the day after prom has been reserved as a "fun day" for seniors and some juniors. This year is no exception. The most popular place to go is Great America theme park, but it seems that this year, students are coming up with more
creative ideas for day-long excursions. Many activities revolve around water, such as beach bumming, water skiing, boating, or taking a trip to the dunes. Others venture toward downtown, where day-long fun can include shopping sprees at Water Tower Place, going to the top of the
Sears Tower or John Hancock Building, a Cubs or Sox game, seeing a play or musical, a trip to the zoo, or taking a nighttime carriage ride. Many of these places can be fun to explore while spending time with friends. The more elaborate day-after-prom-partiers have planned for group weekend escape trips. Groups of mostly seniors are taking the weekend to go to cabins, resorts, or summer homes in Wisconsin, Indiana or Michigan, Notice: These two people never would have where they can enjoy the weather and the company. met if it was not for the THEME.

Theme parties create own mood by Kathy Coudal During the summer, we are often trapped in the doldrums of boring days. Although happy to be free, we need something more. We yearn for a bit more fun and a few more people to excite our social senses. One of the best answers might be THEME parties. "What's a theme party?" a naive freshman asks. Theme parties are a gathering of people bound together by a common thread, the party's theme. For example, the theme of tonight's party is Come-as-your-favorite-insect. Dick and Jane, two avid party-goers, attend. Through the course of the evening, the two mingle and converse over Chemlawn's newest fertilizer. Jane is first attracted to Dick because of the fact that he is dressed as a Praying Mantis, just as she. Jane is surprised, as she thought that her idea was original; and she would like to get to know this stranger with whom she shares identities. Surprisingly enough, the two end up immensely happy with each other.

Summer jobs offer many opportunities It is hard to believe, but the long-awaited summer of '85 is coming right around the corner. Instead of wasting the summer away as usual, go out and find a job. Contrary to popular belief, summer jobs are really not that hard to find if one uses a little common sense. Always remember to have an open mind when looking for a job. The "ideal" job will probably never be found so realize that a less than perfect job for three months will not ruin the rest of one's life. To find a job take advantage of sources of information such as local newspapers and the Career Resource Center. When looking for a job, remember that in bigger stores and companies there is more likely to be available jobs than in small stores or offices. Large chain stores like Dominick's, McDonald's, Burger King etc. are always hiring and are usually good places for teenagers to find jobs. Never forget that having a special talent can often give one applicant an advantage over another. Whether the talent be in computers, music,
art, writing, typing, or even knowing karate, always mention it on an application. Below is a list of jobs that, as of deadline were available.

Softball moves to regionals Maine South's varsity softball team started their path towards the state tournament yesterday with their first regional game against Niles North.The winner of that game will play the winner of the Niles West-Evanston game at 10 a.m. tommorow. the finals will be held next Saturday, June 1, at 10 a.m. The varsity squad goes into the regionals with an outstanding regular season record, but, according to coach Don Kerr, in regionals anyone can beat anyone. Teams which were weak at the begining of the season have had time to improve and virtually all the teams have reached an equal level of
play. Therefore, the hawks will continue to play inning by inning, game by game, instead of looking too far into the future. This cautious attitude may be contributed in part to last year when the team also had a spectacular season, then lost in their second regional game to a Leyden team they had previously beaten. Last week Maine South captured the conference championship by beating the Maine West warriors 10-3. With one game remaining after deadline the Hawks were undefeated in conference play. Their final game was last week against the Maine East team they had
previously beaten. The Hawks participated in the Elk Grove tournament recently and captured the title by beating York 9-8 and then again 6-2 in the title game. At the time York was ranked the fourth best team in Illinois. In the championship game junior Pam Juckett hit a triple with the bases loaded while Liz Ciprian, also a junior, had a three run homer to contribute to the team's victory. The tournament ended a sucessful week for the varsity squad who had set a high of winning all five of their games that week. They also beat New Trier, Evanston, and Glenbrook North that week.
Tanning safely by Katy
McGarry
Now that the weather is sunny and warm and school is almost over for the summer, many people are beginning work on their tans. The most important thing to remember when tanning is to limit exposure. Depending on the severity of the heat, exposure should be done in intervals of 30-45 minutes in warm sun, or 45-60 minutes if there is a cool breeze. A sunscreen should always be used to block out the sun's harmful rays. The first step in suntanning is to prepare a comfortable atmosphere, so it is easier to lay out for a longer period of time. Next, equip yourself with a drink, book, and/or radio to help pass the time. Thrid, put on a sunscreen, evenly, all over exposed areas. Finally, lie down and enjoy the rest and the heat. If sunburning takes place, and blisters begin to form, leave the sun right away. Solarcaine and many other over-the-counter products will ease the pain, as well as aloe-vera. Drink plenty of fluids so dehydration will not occur. Stay in a cool place for a while, and do not go out into the hot sun for long periods of time until the pain, redness and/or blisters are gone.

Soccer team to play in regional The girls' varsity soccer team, after going unbeaten all last year, has kept that streak alive at 32 games. They have an 8-0-2 record thus far this season, and have compiled a 4-0-1 record in the conference. This weekend the varsity team starts play in the Hinsdale South Regional of the Niles West Mini State Tournament. They are seeded first in their regional and will play the winner of the eighth and ninth seed game, either Downers Grove North or University of Chicago High School. Each of the champions from the four regionals will move on to Niles West to decide the championship, the same one which was won by the Maine South girls last year. The JV team starts play in the very important Liberty ville Tournament this weekend, too. Both the varsity and JV teams met a tough opponent, St. Charles, on May 10. The games were very physical and well-played. The varsity came home with a l-I tie, while the JV returned with their first setback of the year, a 2-0 loss.
