Z 5 A AN ALL T00 FAMILIAR SIGHT - are crowded stairways. This over- crowding was due to the large enrollment at DBHS. ADDING T0 THE POR- TABLES AT DBHS - are portables number seven and eight. Many students dreaded having to walk to the portables on the other side of campus. Diamond Bar High is not what it used to be an you remember a time when Dia- mond Bar High School was not chang- ing? It seemed as though each year brought a new look, both inside and outside. The 1987 school year was not any different. There were numerous changes that occurred. These changes each had different circumstances, but they shared a common bond in that they did not spoil the school, just changed it a little bit. - One change came as a result of the population ex- plosion. With the addition of new enrollees, came the need to provide space for them. In order to ac- commodate this, two new portables were added in October, 1986. Although they were not universally liked, they were accepted. Iunior Chris Darrow commented, Though they are ugly, I'm glad they were put in because it was getting too crowded in my classes. Sports added another change. Teams were moved into the Sierra league, from the Hacienda league. The change was due to the Brahmas' success in the Hacienda league. Iunior Benson Tang remarked, Now we've really going to show the other people because now we're in such a tough league. Some differences that were not evident from the outside but affected the school were the removal of the smoking area and changes in the administra- tion. A bill passed in the California Senate that allowed for the removal of the smoking area. A final change came in administration as a result of principal Walt Holmes' death. Robert Corkrum was appointed principal, coordinator Hank Iohnson was appointed vice-principal and Linda Martinsen was made Senior grade level coordinator.
