Book of
the Week
|
Friday Night Lights by
H. G. Bissinger
On Friday nights in
Odessa, Texas, 20,000 fans turn out
regularly to watch their Permian Panthers
football team win. Here there is no
high-blown talk of playing the game well;
just the raw need to win at all costs. In
this atmosphere, players vomit from
nervousness before each game and often
play with injuries. On the few occasions
when the team suffers a loss, the coach's
front lawn sprouts "For Sale" signs. The
kids are not just playing a game, but
fighting for the honor of their town. The
mythical proportions of the game and
season will render the rest of the
players' lives a dull denouement.
The book of the week is
available for checkout at the library
circulation desk

Senior Activities:
Truants, poor attendance discipline
referrals, and tardy problems are factors
leading to loss of some or all senior

activity, so to be eligible to attend,
make good choices.
