o i L- Orgonizations fBond Sound of the Herd The Hundreds of feet stepped li htly on the damp grass of a football field as the beat of a drum cut sharply through the still night air. Soon, the shrill sound of drum major Brian Dickie's whistle brought every form to a halt. Diamond Bar, the jud es are ready! blared the loudspeaker. Titus began the first performance of the Thundering Herd band, colorguard, and drill team. 1 pretty well, because of ood leaders this year. Luckily, all was notglost. Resurrecting the band from its crisis was VACA dean Karen Cline. Show. ing her faith in the Herd, Cline dipped into her funds to hire a substitute with musical experience as well as a drum corps instructor to improve the band's marching and manuevering. To achieve their goals and finish their show, the Thundering Herd put in an extra four hours of practice each week. We tried to pull ourselves together to ac- comiplish what we wanted to do, stated Eric Wang, ban president.

This move was practiced every morning by the girls in the mud. SUCK UP THE OXYGEN - Deeann Brander gives her all during a show. Drill team wore sparkling new uniforms. Drill! Drill! This word was always jumping out at everyone all over cam- pus. If it wasn't flashing on the front of a drill team outfit, it was echoing through the stands at a pep rally or a football game. Drill looked like so much fun, I had to try out when I came to Diamond Bar, stated freshman lean Koo. As usual, the drill team was a large part of campus life. After long days of work at the USA drill team camp at San- ta Barbara, the girls were ready for the beginning of school. They exploded into dance and precision at every football game and assembly. It was really great being able to fire up school spirit, said Lisa Farnsworth, senior. A smaller, newer drill team was evi- dent. This was a rebuilding season, with advisor Kim Cleveland having retired as drill advisor and the addition of many young members. The new advisor was foreign langua e teacher Sue Benner, who was co-advisor last year. Benner stepped in this year after Cleveland's departure. Mrs, Benner gave us a fresh start this year, commented Michelle Robinson, junior. The squad succeeded in placing at many competitions this season and cap- tured a first place at Westminster High School. -QA as ,, .9 F' ...., K 3. ti I leg I 'W
