She is also a cheerleader. is involved in track, and is Sophomore Club histo- rian. Tara has many hobbies including riding horses, drawing, traveling. and meeting people. Being out in front of so many peo- ple on the field was a little scary, and I was afraid I might fall or trip getting out of the carf, said Tara. Homecoming had a lot of activities to participate in, and the one she got the most out of was the bonfire. Class yells were a lot of fun, and they pro- moted more school spirit. Tara contrib- uted by helping with the float and bon- fire. Her future plans are to go to Mesa Community College, and then she probably will continue her education at Arizona State University. Getting the spirit up in the school and keeping it that way and involving the whole student body in activities to help our school be the best, is what Homecoming means to me, said Tara.. -Gloria Perez 192 AT THE DRAMA Club carnival, chorus was one of the few clubs or classes that participated in the fun and games booths.

'Elf you want something done, do it yourselff, said 16-year-old Matthew Landavazo. This exuberant sophomore may as well have been speaking of him- self. For many, Mattis busy schedule would be enough to throw them into the hospital with a nervous breakdown.

During the pep assembly, the Drama Club put on a beautiful skit depicting 'fMemories in which Matt held a major part.

The only reasony mom stopped after me is she reached perfection, said Sophomore Jerry Drazinski, last child in a family of three and an art stu- dent. Jerry, Can amateur artistj said he wasnft really a reat artist. However he added, If I fo something, I'll brag about it - I know I'm perfect. An art student engaged in the TSTL program, Jerry submitted a minimum of three pictures a week to TSTL. His masterpieces included sketches of garbage cans, trees, and other common sights. Jerry said he prefers drawing things with less detail. Why hurt yourself? he asked, explaining he just looks around the room for something simple, then he just draws it. When you make something, you can say I made that, said Jerry, who liked making clay sculptures, animals, and pots. I Jerry said he draws to pass the time, although it's an enjoyable way to pass time. Who is Jerry's favorite artist? I don't know, I've never talked to any, said Jerry. I have never wanted to be another Michelangelo, because I really don,t know who he is,', said Jerry. When I get out of high school I'm gonna be a millionaire, said Jerry, Trust me. -Sue Vaughn 191 KATHY MUNN, AND Kalia Bumpas, sophomores, hang around in the yearbook room after school. 201 TAKING A MOMENT to wrap up her alge- bra assignment is Sophomore Laurie Karkos . . . evidently homework becomes hallwork when lessons are unfinished.
