Meanwhile, the yearbook and newspaper staffs were frantically finishing their work for deadlines. In the far corner of the field, Biology teacher Rick Valencia and his pet iguana, Iggy, walked with a crowd of students. At four o'clock there were still many people at school although all were involved with entirely different things. It is because of the diversity of the individuals at Diamond Bar High that the theme a different brand was choseng it was reflective of the school environment. Since the town of Diamond Bar and its high school originated from western roots it was decided that the theme should be done in a western kind of way. Iunior Stacy Lund said, Since everyone is an in- dividual they contribute in different ways. Co-existing is what Diamond Bar was all about. There were a wide variety of people from Seniors to Underclassmen, Faculty, Sports and Academics and Organizations. All of the different factions combin- ed to reflect a school that was truly a different brand. 2 .FX Garret Hutter IT TAKES ALL KINDS - humor Ieff Kite shows ow much he ates going to his locker and getting WJ. . - -in-h V his homework.

DIAMU D B l i l 1 l 1 l 1 .ni HOUSE AFTER HOUSE - reflects the growing opulation in Diamon Bar. Diamond Bar con- tinued to grow as more and more shopping centers and businesses appeared throughout the community. AS DIAMOND BAR HIGH SITS - in the back ound a lone tree stantg in the afternoon sun. The school sat a distance from the street to allow for future building. Country Living becomes urban as Diamond Bar expands iamond Bar rapidly rew into a flourishing community ol about 45,000 residents. Although Diamond Bar has celebrated its 25th birthday, t e roots of Diamond Bar travel back much further than the 1960's. According to the Diamond Bar Chamber of Com- merce, Governor Iuan Alvarado deeded 4340 acres of land in 1840 to lose de la luz Linares who found- ed Rancho Los Nogales or Ranch of the Walnut Trees. The land passed through several other peo- ple and then in 1918, Frederich E. Lewis bought .most of Rancho Los Nogales and registered t e brand of Diamond Bar with the California Depart- ment of Agriculture. In 1956, the Transamerica Corporation purchased Diamond Bar for 310,000,000 and master planned the community. Thus, the rapid development of Diamond Bar had begun. The face of Diamond Bar has changed since then. No longer are there as many trees or wide open spaces as there were on Rancho Los Nogales in 1847. Diamond Bar is in a very rapidly growin part of Los Angeles County. The freeways borciring Diamond Bar make virtually every ,part of the Southland accessible to Diamond Bars residents. On a clear day one can even see Catalina from The Country, Diamond Bar's exclusive gate guarded neighborhood. Senior Steve Br an said, I like it after it rains, and you can smell the fresh trees instead of the smog. Diamond Bar is not without its problems, however. As the community rapidly expands, the issue of incorporation has been raised. Some people miss the country living and friendliness that they remember from twent -five years ago when they first moved to Diamondv Bar. Senior Sheri Nelson said that she didn't like the fact that the neighbors don't know each other. One thing, however, is evident. Diamond Bar will con- tinue to grow as one of the young communities in the Los Angeles area. Diamond BarfOpening 15
