TUDENT STYLIST nip, snip go the scissors, as a clump of hair goes drifting to the floor . . . Just a little more off the top and some more off the sides. How much do I owe you? Just five bucks. Here ' s seven. Thanks Benjy. This a sound that is familiar to junior Benjy Loop. Benjy is an AHS student that cut the hair of his classmates and friends at prices much lower than the sa- lons. I like to go to Benjy, be- cause he doesn ' t charge me much and he cuts hair better than most professionals, com- mented junior Kim Mastain. Benjy ha s no formal training in hair styling, but does a good enough job to satisfy most of the people whose hair he cuts. Benjy cuts his friends hair the way they want it and the way he thinks it would look best on them. For the most part, they are satisfied, but not always. I remember one time I was cut- ting Don Southard ' s hair for him. I was shaving the back of his head and I fell forward and shaved off a little too much, added Benjy. Not only did Benjy cut hair for AHS students, he also cut hair for several people and their par- ents living in Hunnington Beach BENJY LOOP CUTS HAIR and thereabouts. I have some friends that live out there and cut their hair and sometimes even their parents, comment- ed Benjy. Benjy goes over to the peo- ple ' s homes whose hair is going to be cut. He usually charges five dollars, but sometimes cuts hair for free, If they give me a ride home or something like that I ' ll cut their hair for free, added Benjy. Although he sometimes cuts hair free, he has many ' clients ' . At first they come to me to see how I cut hair. They like it and keep coming back for more, concluded Benjy. SHAVING LINES in to the back of Steve Pennunuri ' s hair, Benjy ends his job. Steve has been coming to Benjy ever since he began cutting hair. I think he did a good job cutting my hair. He ' s a good friend and a great hair stylist. Kim Mastain, junior. BENJY LOOP 35 =

TUDENT LIFE ,- IN Fell never for- ' get home- coming night! ex- claimed Leigh Rittmann, ju- nior princess, I was so over- whelmed with excitement when I heard the emcee announce my name! This comment was an exam- ple of emotions that Arlington ' s Homecoming Court exper- ienced on the night of Novem- ber 8, 1986. I was really surprised that I was chosen as sophomore prince at the Homecoming dance! I was also very ner- vous, commented Kenny Green. Despite all of the con- fusion over the homecoming game, everything seemed to work out fine, and I was really proud to be a part of the home- coming court. Students also commented on homecoming festivities this year. I liked the homecoming festivities this year. The carni- val, the game, and the dance. It gave students a great chance to become more involved with the school and its activities, added Heidi Hall, junior. When I was nominated in my WHAT IT REALLY FEELS LIKE TO TRIUMPH! 2nd period class, I had no idea I would end up being chosen as sophomore princess, stated Angela Miranda. That was such a big honor for me. I don ' t think I could ever forget that moment. Arlington ' s Homecoming Court consisted of Steve Pen- unuri and Rose Hartsock as homecoming king and queen, Dana Quintana and Leigh Ritt- mann as junior prince and prin- cess, Kenny Green and Angela Miranda as sophomore prince and princess, and Chad Ash and Melissa Wiese as freshman prince and princess. Homecoming was very differ- ent from the years in the past. This year there was a 1st run- ner up for homecoming queen. This person was Jeanette Tup- per. I was so excited to be cho- sen as first runner up as home- coming queen. Jeanette ex- plained, I think that it was quite an honor to be so close to winning considering how many other beautiful girls were cho- sen to be nominees. That was a very memorable moment for me. by Stephanie Gordon
