Taurus staffers don ' t know when to stop! OOn the go 24 hours a day, in and out of classes, interviewing all sports, or- ganizations, and activities, the TAU- RUS staff was on top of things at all times. One of the most hectic parts of yearbook was the deadlines. It followed the infamous Murphy ' s Law of Yearbook — anything that could go wrong did go wrong! . . . It ' s 10:00 p.m., copy isn ' t finished. 11:00 p.m. I can ' t think of anything to write. Midnight. Forget it, I ' ll just do it later, i have to start my layout. . . .Well, if Ann doesn ' t like this I ' ll just have to do it again. Now the pictures. Where did I put them? I have to get them cropped or Linda will kill me. And the greas e pencil — of all the times to lose it! Those were just a few of the many incidents that went on during a deadline before every layout, copy, and picture was turned in suc- cessfully and stamped with approval. The students on the TAURUS staff worked double time during the year to accomplish what was needed to be done for almost every- one on staff had never worked on a yearbook before in their life. Hardly anyone knew what he was doing at first. We were all just going in circles, asking everyone else what to do, commented Wendy Muller. As the year moved on, everyone managed quite well on his own, except for the little things like asking, What ' s our job number again? or I can ' t remember, are there 44 or 54 characters per line? Although the TAURUS staff had their share of difficult times, by trying to finish deadlines on time, worrying if their pictures had been taken, and wondering if their copies would fit, there were always plenty of good times to brighten up the hard ones. The work didn ' t seem to compare with all the fun we had on staff, stated junior Maryrose Mendoza, we were always doing something fun to top off the hard days. ▼ SIDE BY SIDE, Taurus Staff editors, Ann Reyes and Linda Bundy decide on which pictures should go into the yearbook- The editors had final say on everything! WORKING OVERTIME A WORKING SIDE BY SIDE. Karen Jensen, Hubert Kim. and Heather Moore show how students work and help each other on staff. Closeness and friendship was really important on staff. WHERE DID ALL THE PICTURES GO? Photogra- phers Mike Dingess and Bobby Jones wonder what hap- pened to the roll of film. Taking great pictures isn ' t as easy as you think! comnnents Bobby Jones. 82 Group Rates Taurus

JUMPING TO THE TOP, JV cheerleaders Lesll Ells- worth and Carolyn Long show their enthusiasm by more than just yelling. Many jumps were taught to the girls at camp. For every hard day in PEP, there was always a week of good. 64 P EP wasn ' t always work, comment- ed JV cheerleader Leslie Smith, sometimes we would have get-to- gethers after school like going out to eat and having sleepovers. One of the many sleepovers JV had was a candy party. During that particular evening everyone brought bunches of candy and put it all together for the football players and them- selves, of course. JV Cheer spent most of their time cheering at the Frosh-Soph football games. Pepster Mi- chelle Brown related, There weren ' t always a lot of people at the games, but that didn ' t matter to us because we were cheering for ' our ' football players. This year went really great for being the first year at DBMS, commented pepster Carolyn Long, I had a terrific time being in PEP. Though most of the Pepsters ' year was one to remember, DBMS Mascots, Jeanine Twy- ford and Robin Hunt ' s year didn ' t start off too hot. To their bitter disappointment, the first mascot outfits they had ordered were made of a quality much poorer than what they paid for. So back to the shipping company the outfits went and new ones were ordered from the people who made and supplied Disneyland ' s outfits. Even though it took quite awhile for the outfits to come, they finally arrived. However, after the football season was over. Mascot Jeanine Twyford commented, it would have been nice to have the outfits for all of the football games, but with them or not, we still had spirit! .. ► Making an entance. Mascot Robin Hunt gave a show for all during their first apperance in December. Mascot outfits didn ' t arrive until way into the school year because the first costumes weren ' t up to the quality as expected. Showing a grand appearance. Mascot Jeanine Tuyford dances around her costume during the Pep Rally. The Mascots were well greeted when they first appeared at DBMS. SPIRIT SEEMED TO NEVER STOP 84 Group Rates Pep
