upils find classes, work demanding orting activities clubs, organizations highlight students' spare minutes Although students found their classes and jobs demanding, they never missed the opportunity to have a good time. For fun, we go visit disc jockeys at three o'clock in the morning, said senior Debbie Iones. After a long school week, Friday night football and basketball gave students the opportunity to get 'rowdy' and have some fun. Visiting the local pizza place after- wards added to the excitement. Organizations and clubs brought stu- dents together to work for the benefit of the school and many realized school need not be all work. Mustangs partaking in part-time jobs also recognized the need for a time to relax and have some fun. It's nice to go out with the gang after work and eat pizza and drink beer, explained junior Ieff Brand. Putting together the old and the new, the routine, the work and the fun, students opened their Gateway East. DIRECTING MARCHING BAND members. senior Eddie Camargo, one of the two drum majors, uses his arms to indicate the tempo at one of the several Thursday night practices. Opening 13

C it looks for recognition El Paso experiences problems of large metropolises Most western of Texas cities and con- sidered a part of the wild west, El Paso sought to prove its sophistication to the east. Recent features such as the Urban Cowboy and Dallas affirmed the suspi- cions of Easterners that we were a wild bunch of cowboys. Before I arrived here, I expected to see horses roaming the range with ranches and farms sprinkled here and there, explained junior Ieff Brand, a transfer stu- dent from Georgia. Taking advantage of the popularity of recent shows, designers offered new styles in western wear. Students began wearing the plaid shirts, designer jeans, boots and wide-brimmed hats, further affirmation of our undomesticated ways. In reality, however, El Paso during its four hundredth year, strove to prove its eastern domestication. Experiencing many of the growing pains of the larger metropolises, El Paso freeways were com- busted with the rush hour traffic of cars, not horses as many were lead to think. The city also stressed its rapidly growing population as a furthering of its eastern ways. As a part of El Paso, Burges too sought for eastern recognition while many stu- dents followed the path through the Gate- way East. MILE AFTER MILE, the inches and calories burn away as senior Alice Englisbee iogs. In her attempt to maintain a slim figure, the petite brunette exercises daily. COLLEGE CHOICE DECISIONS must be made by seniors choosing to continue their education. Help- ing seniors Chris Mendoza and Marshall Nauck with their decision is LTIG Wayne Slaughter, Navy recruiter. MAKING THE SALE, senior Liz Pena helps a cus- tomer with a purchase. Due to the United Artist release Urban Cowboy, western wear sales were on the uprise. Opening 15
