Editorial
Recently Chattooga High students had the opportunity to
exercise their American given privilege of voting. But the percent
age outcome of our future governmental electors wasn't in
numbers to be proud of.
The election of class officers measures importance to Chat
tooga High just as the presidential-election does to the United
States. Even though the offices are sometimes seemingly un
important. they indirectly involve every student that walks in the
halls; of CHS.
Out of the treshman class only 11 percent took part in the
election. This was the lowest percentage of all classes. Is this low
percentage because of lack of interest or due that freshmen are
just unaware of procedures?
As the class heightens so does the percentages. Thirty percent
of the sophomore class took advantage of their voting rights.
The Junior class officers are the ones with the biggest duties,
the Junior-Senior Prom. They are the ones who do the organizing
and show leadership during preparation for the prom. The Junior
class edged the sophomore class by only two percent bringing it
to a total of 32 percent. Since these class officers are the ones
with the most responsibility, the outcome is a great let down.
The Senior class showed their experience as upper classmen by
turning out 57 percent voting. This great participation was due to
the closeness of the races and the campaigning done by the
candidates.
Some feel that voting is maybe a hassle or a privilege but it is a
duty of every American citizen. People who don’t participate in
elections just don’t care and think that it is unimportant. How
can people be unconcerned about their governmental official who
practically runs their life? Also people who don’t show at the
polls at election time are most likely the ones to gripe and
complain about the people who are in office. Perhaps his vote
could have made the difference. Does this person have any room
to talk?
Voting is so important to the American way of life that it is
provided for in the Constitution of the United States. In the 19th
amendment, Section 1, it states that the right of citizens of the
United States to vote shall not be denied or alrigged by thev.s. or
by any state an account of race, color, or previous condition of
servitude. If Congress went through all of this to protect your
rights to vote, don’t you feel it is the least you can do as a V. S.
citizen?
The well-known 19th amendment, which guards women’s right
to vote, also leaves the way for no excuses for not voting.
Our country doesn’t realize how fortunate it is. Some
countries wouldn’t have voting privileges in their fondest dreams.
They wouldn't know what it would be like to have a choice of its
governmental officials. But the U. S., being the land of freedom
and opportunity, gives each and every one of its citizens voting
privileges. It’s shameful and disgraceful to think some just don’t
care about their own welfare of their countries!

this common disease you
should check the following
symptoms:
1) Child’s age and year in
school.
2) If books or any other
type of school work have been
seen at home (or have been
seen at all).
3) If child is constantly on
the go.
4) If child’s attitude is older
than child Example: “Oh
Mom, I’m a SENIOR now!”
5) If child is 'lacking in
school attendance.
Studies have found that
Senioritis can be cured by
different ways. The seriousness
of the case depends on the
type of cure.
CURES
1) Explain to child why you
wanted him/her to get an edu
cation.
2) Tell child about your
HIGH SCHOOL DAYS (again).
3) Explain to child that
being a senior is not only a
privilege but a responsibility.
Tell the child that high school
will not last forever and will
only go to waste if he/she lets
it. Explain how a senior is
looked up to and should set an
example. Never tell the child to

to Murray County, Dalton
bounced back to beat a
wounded Calhoun team by a
score of 41-0. Dalton has the
combined talent to form a
potent offense and a furious
defense. The Dalton team came
down here last year and went

“FOOD”
By Tammy Eilenburg
When you’re on a diet all
you think of is food.
You get so depressed and in
the worst mood.
In your mind delicious
treats keep popping in and out.
But you stick with it until
you’re about to shout!
Wouldn’t it be nice to
munch down on one little
French fry.
And some hot fudge cake
would really get you high.
How about some spaghetti
to make that hunger stop,
and you’d eat pecan pie
until you’d almost pop.
Some pizza and Coke would
really be just right.
And you could tear up
Cherry Yum-Yum and eat
every bite.
Boy how you could love a
good old Nutty-Buddy Bar,
and a bunch of peanut
butter, you’d even lick the jar.
But you’re gonna stick with
it and eat the things you
should.
And lose that fat like you
told everybody you could.
You’ll eat salads and apples,
and drink diet Cokes until
you’re nice and little.
And say goodbye to all that
excess fat right around your
middle.

each CHS game.
In the first game this year

and intercepted a Cedartown
pass in Chattooga territory.
In the second game against
Calhoun, Larry Stamper was

Yankees and Dodgers
Are Top Choice
Are the New York Yankees
finally going to discredit that
age-old saying, “You can’t buy
a championship”? The New
Yorkers are a talent-laden team
made up of high priced free
agents including “Catfish”
Hunter, Reggie Jackson, Don
Gullet, and a host of other
capable performers. The
pitching staff is a reliable one
with Hunter, Ed Figueroa,
Sparky Lyle, and Gullet
providing the backbone and a
devastating batting order
featuring Chris Chambliss,
Reggie Jackson, Willie
Randolph, and Thurman
Munson. The Yankees made it
to the World Series last year
and were stopped only by a
magnificent Cincinnati Reds
team. The Reds won’t be there
this year and the Yankees
should be able to take it all.
Maybe the Reds won’t be
there this year but their chief
nemesis the L. A. Dodgers will
be. The Dodgers have a
well-balanced squad that relies
on both solid hitting and solid
pitching. For the Dodgers to
take the championship they
will need an extremely strong
showing by their pitching staff.
Charlie Hough, Don Sutton,
Tommy John, and Doug Rau
will need to pitch at their very
best to give the Dodgers a
chance. Reggie Smith, Dusty
Baker, Steve Yeager, and Steve
Garvey should provide the
Dodgers with enough hitting to
win ball games if the pitching is
reliable.
The Philadelphia Phillies
will also need some out
standing pitching in the play
offs. During the season the
Phils have fallen back on their
savage hitting to win most of
their games, but in the play
offs a team also needs con
sistent pitching. Jim Lonborg,
Steve Carlton, Gene Carber,
and Ron Reed should provide
some pitching strength, but
whether it will be enough is the
key question. If not, the awe

and intercepted one pass.
In the Ringgold-Chattooga
game, Press Cash, quarterback,
took the player of the week.
Press had 54 yards rushing and
scored two touchdowns from
the 16 and 32.
Friday night at LaFayette
the player of the week was
Randy Ledford who also plays
quarterback, running back, and
defensive back. Randy had 98
yards rushing and passed for
two-point conversions.
Mcßride should enliven their
play-off games.
The Kansas City Royals
must be considered to be the
underdog in the play-offs.
Their main hope is based on
strong pitching. Paul Spliltorf,
Dennis Leonard. Larry Gura,
and Doug Ford anchor a strong
pitching staff that they hope
will be able to shut off the
opposition’s run scoring.
George Brette, Fred Patek, Hal
Mchae, Amos Otis should be
able to generate some offense
for the Royals.
All in all the two most
likely candidates for the World
Series are Los Angeles and New
York. The Yankees should be
able to overcome any opposi

Still the 1977 World Series will
be a tough one.
