LOTHES P H liques: al- H - though ev- M 1 ery B V own style and personality, there seemed to be certain styles and per- sonalities common among groups of friends. Some peo- ple who viewed these groups held stereotypes of them. The common groups could be seen hanging out to- gether all over campus. There was the smoking area group, the stud wall group, and var ious others who could be found hanging out by the office and the ROTC room. Heather Hussey hung out in the smoking area and she DO THEY REALLY MAKE THE PERSON? stated, Yeah, the people in the smoking area are thought of as being poor stu- dents and such . . . but really that ' s only a stereotype. I hang out in the smoking area and I ' m an A B stu- dent. I can also name about twenty other people who do ' the same. It ' s just a stereo- type. Vicki Keeting holds her views on stud wall as she commented, Whenever I look at stud wall I see a bunch of jocks hanging out and it ' s funny, because they ' re usually wearing ma- roon and gold and talk about sports. Undoubtedly, the stud wall crowd would dis- agree. GOING TO MATH CLASS, Don Southard opens the door to Mr. Hoeben ' s classroom. Don ' s style of dress didn ' t affect his performance in Pre-Calculus or on the football field. I think clothes stereo- types are dumb, be- cause the way you dress shouldn ' t mean you fit in a certain group, or you don ' t. Laura Elliott, junior. CLOTHES STEREOTYPES 25

hearse for a competition. It took many hours of hard work to prepare for field shows and parades. RILLIANCE EARLY MORNING PRACTICE HELPS STUDENTS TO SHINE BRRIINNGG! The alarm clock sounded ... no mom, it ' s too early. Some band members had to get up as early as 5:30 A.M. to get to school on time for their zero period class; Wind En- semble at 7:00 A.M. Actually it ' s not that bad. It makes us feel kind of special since Mr. Kruger is willing to come to school early just for our class, commented Christi Warner. Why not just have it as a normal class during school? Having it before school al- lows more people to partici- pate and still take academic classes. It would not fit into a lot of people ' s schedules as a normal class, explained Mr. Kim Kruger, the band di- rector. This was Mr. Kruger ' s first year at Arlington after teaching at Yucaipa High School for seven years. Be- sides Wind Ensemble, he taught Concert Band, Jazz Band, and Music Survey. He said that his first year here, Has been pretty smooth. There haven ' t been any ma- jor problems since I teach a program pretty similar to Mr. Downs (the former band director). During football season, the marching band had a lot of activities with performing in half-time shows at the home games and many competitions. It ' s really ex- citing at the competitions, and we got to go places. The Lester Oaks Competition was the most fun, because we did so well, said flute player, Peggie Proper. For Terry Hsaio, it ' s a little bit different. I find it more en- joyable playing at the foot- ball games, because there is too much pressure at com- petitions. In two years, the band will be getting new uniforms with a different style. Mr. Kruger explained that the present uniforms are ten years old and it ' s time for a change when the funds are avail- able. Our uniforms aren ' t that great, but they ' re bet- ter than a lot of schools, said Suzie Genovese. The band competed in field tournaments and pa- rades. They had to pay an entrance fee to participate, but the Booster Club raised money to pay for everything else. At Norwalk, they took 2nd place; at La Habre, 1st place; at Los Altos, 4th place; at the West Covina Field Competition, 2nd place; and at the Lester Oaks Band Review, the Gold- en Pride took 2nd place in the field competition and 1st place in most of the music awards for class A bands. Allen Lehman, the drum major, summed up the year, Leading the Golden Pride Band was an enjoyable ex- perience. No matter what the situation, they were a great group to work with. by Kris Cassias SHOWING FLUTE EXPERTISE, Do- reen Uebel, Kristin Reed, Debbie Ash, and Cheri Dishno play at a football game. The band played at all the home football games and performed in half-time shows. EXPLAINING THE MUSIC. Mr. Kim Kruger instructs Allen Lehman, drum major.
