Let'i begin 1M.1 month's edition of School Dazr with the Tint •
annual "Joke of the Month." This month's joke was submitted
by senior Mike Susor: "Did you hear about the ccllcge coed who
took couises in sado-masochism?" "She got good marks!" Ha.
ha. ha.
Opening day for the San Francisco Giann was a bad day all
around For botii the players and the fans: the team lost to the
Houston Astros «•?. However, it was an even worse day for the
part-time senior, ,1,'rt-time hot dog vendor Toby Sltgtl. An irate
fan, not knowing where to place his frustration, decided to take
it out on the innocent Siegel. While returning 10 his scat, following
the seventh inning Jtrctth. the fan hit his haul on Sicgcl's hot
dog bin. Before Siegel could say. "Gel your red-hots." the [an
was in Siegcl's face yelling and kicking him. Keeping hi< cool,
the yocng vendor walked away from the Uuident. Well, let's just
say that fan is going to have a tough time getting the mi ulard staitn
off of hi* clcUies.

Well. Sprirg Fever h*> definitely struck here at Lowell. It is
not necessarily in the Classrooms or on the dance floor only. Look

Well, spring is here and along with sunny skies and flutter
blossoms comes that higiily crucial social Lvent. the prom. Prom
syndrome it at its peak at 'his lime. Department Mora are in stiff
competition for who can sell the most pink dresses. Florists are
drained of their entire stock of rose-. The Pacific Bell yellow pages
section under Limousine Services has been worn oul ty guys looKing
for the lourst rate* in fancy cars.
Altliough the Junior Prrci. "Always and Forever." w»< a soldout
event, jus: about everyone who wanted to go was a^lc to purchase
a ticket. Some ticket-buyers were determined to kevp costs
c-jwn. Take juniors Jane: Yl. Minnie Chen, and Cella Geraa,
who chase to take the MUNI system to the St. Frauis Hsiel. the
site cf the prom. It was a cheap way to go, but few oiners chose
this form of travel.
The passage of the Junior Prom can only mean the approach of
the Senior Prom. A couple of senior girls h-.ve most definitely expressed
their desire to find a date, and f-.il. Mr. Fret! Stark ukcdMlml

Lowell's Vyoi drive proved itself to be quite an experience for
evtryttje who dmded. A few hetoines emerged that day, including
Sbcrri Wiener, Rosanna Matias, Eatber Wang, and Jenclfu'
Webb. While these weary girls wanted to help Wood-seekers. Mal-
UKT* Sanders plainiy declared, "I did it for the donuls."
The athletic scene at Lowell has been rather interesting lately.
Jore, the swim team look the All-City title again, but that was not
whal oVerms will remember. The splendid manicures thi" ErOc
: CHarn, Josh Harris, and Matt Hoiks fhunted were much nitre
impreulve. .
A special congratulations to Lowell's boys' volleyball team,
otherwise known as "The Dudes it. Slick Surfer Shorts." They
beat St. Ignatius in a 34) match.
- And of courie, the Sealor-Ficuliy Basketball Game cannot be
ignored. Senior Jadim* Gee sure made a great show for ERA when
.' she acored the first four points in Ifcfe game. Well, as long as we
sorad off with a joke, let's end with one on this very topic:
