What is Academic Decathlon? The answer to that was very simple. The Academic Decathlon team was a group of students who par- ticiapted in a competition consisting of ten academically based events. After taking a summer school class for four hours a day, the team was ready to compete. This was the first year that the Academic Decathlon team began to prepare for competi- tion before school began in September. The decision for a summer school class was one which will really benefit the team. In com- parison to prior years, we'll be more successful and competitivef, said Ioan Staroscik. Staroscik worked together with Carlene Brown as the advisors of the Decathlon team. The competition took place at West High of Different Kind School on Saturday, November 15.

Hear ye! Hear ye! The minstrels of Diamond Bar have arrived. The troupe, one of the biggest since their creation, has enjoyed a most pro- sperous and successful year. The c oir put in many hours of hard work during the summer and the school year. The ractice was really tiring during the year, but it was worth it, remarked senior Rey Koo. The highlight of their efforts was their Cabaret Night show, Around the World . .. In an Evening. Led b their director Essie Fischer, the choir traveled through the lands of France, Germany, Iamaica, Russia, and regions of the United States. A special show was performed for students who didn't want to eat, but FROSTY THE SNOWMAN - Chamber singer Aron Reed wears his winter wonderland outfit. The Christmas show featured students acting out the songs. STRIP - Choir member Penn Ware helps senior Eddie Kim off with his sliirt.

Senior Heidi Ianz commented, I thought the student show was a great idea for those who didn't want to pay 558.00 to eat dinner. Those who went to see the full performance were treated to a night of food and fun as the choir sang numerous well-known songs. Tunes heard included, A Foggy Day in London Town, Springtime in Paris, and Iapanese Sandman. Second semester, the group went through a tour-de-force of competi- tions. At festivals hosted by Azusa, Nogales, and many other high schools, the choir captured several awards. yall iff Choir Hath Harmony M - 59: Choir! Organizations 77
