The whole stadium was quiet as the glaring lights of the football field opened up the night sky; the crowd peered down on the shiny helmets and spotless guns. This was ROTC ' s Drill Team adding a professional touch to the opening ceremonies at a typical football game. ROTC. with its 129 members, was the largest club on campus. They played an important part in our community and drew almost one-tenth of the stu- dent body. Learning obedience, self- discipline, pride, and dedication, the ROTC program prepared its members for a possible military career and gave preparation for the future. Their career studies included navigation, meteorol- ogy, history, of flight, space, and lead- ership. Visits to George Air Force Base, Ed- wards Air Force Base, Vandenberg Missle Test Center, and March Air Force Base were a few of the events that kept members on their toes. The highlight of the year was the Mili- tary Ball held at MAFB. This was a for- mal affair for members only. Off We Go into the Wild Blue Yon- der, is only a small part of the activi- ties of Arlington ' s ROTC. Cadet Major Joe Martinez keeps a close eye on classmates during inspection. 30 ROTC

Simba Kali Plays Under Pressure Last minute rushes to get photo- graphs and write copy were all too common when deadlines were ap- proaching for the Simba Kali. Personal sacrifices were made by all twenty- eight staff members and the advisor to meet the six deadlines for the 248- page book. Staffers had to stay after school and took work home when things didn ' t get finished during fifth period when the staff met as a class. I never real- ized how much hard work it takes to put a yearbook together, groaned first-year staffer Bonnie Bailey. Work nights often lasted from after school until 10:00 P.M., and occasionally later when there were more tasks than time. There is no way we will miss a deadline, declared Cris Merino. Fast foods started to acquire a to- tally new taste for Editors Jeffery Fi- scher and Carlo Hewitt and other staff- ers who had to stay night-after-night, while Advisor Mrs. Gloria McCloud oc- casionally ate at gourmet restaurants like the Thrifty Coffee Shop. Frustrations caused by having to re- write copy ten or fifteen times and having to identify people in group photos made staffers think twice about what they were doing on the Simba Kali staff. It was a pain putting the book together, but in the end it was worth it, decided Susan Price. When the 1981 Simba Kali arrived, staffers were excited and proud, while at the same time acting like a child when gifts are opened at Christmas- time. Personal satisfaction was obvious when staffers were seen flipping to the pages they had worked on. Although things were hectic, the staff was continually rewarded for their efforts by their Secret Pals. Secret Pals were randomly drawn at the begin- ning of the school year and were en- couraged to remember their SP with a small gift or note frequently. SP ' s were revealed at the end-of-school dinner prepared by Mrs. McCloud for the staff. l 1 Editor Jeffery Fischer confers about special effects with Josten ' s Yearbook Representative Mr. Bud Rose. 4 The Simba Kali staff is fortunate to have some- one with as much experience as Lori Hey man.
