An epidemic

every year?

C very year many students con-
™ tract a strange disease called
Senior-itis. It is very much like
Spring fever, but the causes and
symptoms are somewhat different.
The first symptoms strike a stu­
dent at the beginning of his or her
senior year. They are described as a
strong desire to pick on freshmen
and very little desire to enroll in aca­
demic classes.
By the end of first semester, the
secondary symptoms move in. Usu­
ally, these are an extreme case of
yawning, restlessness and no desire
to do homework.
During the last month of a stu­
dent’s senior year, the symptoms
reach their peak. There is a lot of
falling asleep in class and a desire
to pull fire alarms.
Several teachers are looking des­
perately to find a cure, but the stu­
dents don’t seem to want one.

Pulling pranks is a common happening during the senior
class' last week of school Senior Mike Helton and his friend
try the usual prank of turning over a row of lockers.
