DEDICATION
MRS. ANNE GEGG
Thousands Say Thanks!
Irs. Anne Gegg has been a teacher and counselor at Cristobal for
many years. More importantly, she has been a friend and mentor dur-
Lng all that time, touching the lives of literally thousands of students.
As Cristobal High ceases to exist, her contributions will remain in the
memories of so many. We, on behalf of all the families she has so
deeply affected, dedicate this final issue of the Caribbean to her. Thank
You Mrs. Gegg!

To all Jamboree partici-

I was overwhelmed as
you dedicated the jam-
boree to me. I really
didn't deserve the honor
because it has always
been the football players
and fans that make it
happen. I was only there
to help.
To all Cristobal Ti-

and I'm glad to see that
the Tiger spirit is still
there. Even in this last
year, the Tigers are still
growling!
It was good to be back

I've always loved
Panama just as I've
always loved the game
of football. Thanks to
everyone who helped
make the evening spe-

Listening to the announcements,

The bell that says
We ripped their spirit in half.
The huge, copper bell
Rings for a long time,
And if you listen closely,
You may hear the bell say, "True

Even though I hate homework,
I will miss this school
After it closes,
Especially...

Float on the deep bluish-green lake.

And even hear horns
From nearby ships.

Surrounded by lots of green trees.

Like fresh air from a cloudy day.

And who my friends will be.

And hope they will miss me, too.

Never to Reopen
While sitting in class
Waiting for the lunch bell to
ring,
I think to myself.
The bell rings and
As I rush out of the class-
room
I realize that
I'm going to have to hear
That bell ring
Eight more years
Until I graduate.
I rush to the lunch room
And when I enter
The cafeteria,
The aroma of french fries
Hits me like a wall.
As I turn backto see
If my friend is calling me,
I quickly glance
Past the victory bell.
Memories yet to come
Of the victory bell ringing
Its last time
Sadden me.
I finish lunch
And come out of the lunchrooom
With a full stomach
And a new thought.
As the year gets closer to the end,
Friends start disappearing.
Deep in my heart,
I will miss Cristobal--
The teachers forcing us to work rapidly
To finish our homework
So we can be finished before the football
game,
My friends giving me advice
On the latest styles,
And my classmates helping me out
When I'm confused about math proce-
dures.
I will be one of the last students
To walk out of this school.
I'll never hear the sounds again
Of bookbags
Zippered opened and closed,
The students whispering behind the te
ers' backs,
And the lockers being slammed
As students rush to their classes.
As I pass the victory bell,
And walk down the halls,
I know the doors will soon
Close
Behind me,
Never to reopen
To another group of Tigers.

those "special" memories
that because of printing

some this memory might be
the Prom, Graduation, or

Spring sporting event, or
maybe just a special time
with good friends.
"The CHS of the future
Will be one big paradise,
Where all the teachers are lenient,
And the students already wise."
"They won't pick teachers for ability
But they'll pick them for their looks.
There won't be such a word as homework.
There won't be such a -iii.' as books."
"The rooms will be air-conditioned
And the periods run ten minutes long.
The other thirty five minutes
Will be spent in "Wine, Women, and Song."
"There'll be no place like the 'Office'"
Where bad boys and girls are sent,
But there will be a big social room
Where many happy hours will be spent."
"There's no doubt that in the future
CHS will rank as the best.
The place where you can go to school,
And catch up on your rest."
Well, did we make it?
