Life Summer vacation was over . and ready or not, here it carne: a new year at Harding Academy. At first , students were excited, looking forward to reunions with friends , new activities, and simply a change of pace . Football practice had been going on for weeks already . and the Wildcats looked forward to a year of victories. The all-school mixer, sponsored by the Student Association , heightened excitement and started the year right by putting new students at ease and rekindling Wildcat spirit. As the summer heat wore on , however, the excitement lessened somewhat and school became as much work as it was fun. Six-week tests rolled around; homework was pushed aside to make room for the ever-increasing number of extra-curricu lar activities. Life became hectic, and many grew frustrated with the steady stream of places to go , money to pay, and things to do. Just when things were getting too hot , the weather began to change. Autumn , with its fresh , crisp air and blazing colors, arrived at last. The S.A. retreat came as a welcome breather from the packed schedule. Homecoming and Thanksgiving brought families and friends together, and life became less burdensome with the knowledge that Christmas vacation was right around the corner. - ,0" Dugger FELIFELIFELIFELIFELIFELIFELIFELIFELIFELIFELI 296 Life - Doug KiI"um - '0"" I .
