An incident near the Sterling High arches ends with a blue 1972 Chevy Nova failing to hit a pedestrian who leapt away. The driver then paused, blew a kiss, and fled. A moral note warns about reckless behavior and suggestive conduct.
The College Board will again offer a fee waiver program for students unable to afford SAT fees. The plan serves over 25,000 students annually, with counselors issuing fee-waiver cards accepted in place of test fees. Registration deadlines are November 3 1973 for SAT only and December 1 1973 for SAT and Achievements, among others, with late forms incurring a 4 dollar fee.
An editorial recounts SHS doubts about a new computerized attendance system. Teachers faced extra card work while the office claims a real computer is ordered, though staff refuse detailed comment citing secrecy about the project.
A reader argues SHS has strong facilities including Roscoe Eades Stadium and a new track, but urges higher support for performing arts over sports. The letter blasts band time during lunch, praises Rock Falls and Rockets, critiques bike racks, and calls for more funding and better arts facilities.
A sequence of deadlines from October 1 1973 through May 16 1974 is provided for ATP registration. Students should consult their school counselors for the required registration forms and a copy of the College Board ATP Student Bulletin 1973-74.
