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.

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.

Remember the hippie movement in the '60s? Well, on the carn us of Diamond Bar High, they carnekfnack. DBLO, Diamond Bar Liberation Organization, a new club on carn- us, had to fight with the image of being a rebel groupl' because of their '60s outlook. People brand us as rebels, but we're not. We just like to do things our own way. School is boring and so is being like everyone else, said senior Paolo Asuncion. DBLO's purpose was to get people who weren't involved in schoolin- volved, and to have a lot of fun, ac- cording to senior Chris Slotten. In doing that, DBLO sponsored a concert performed by the Dash dur- ing Homecoming week. The concert attracted a great deal of people. In February, DBLO sponsored a talent show, along with the senior class. Also, for Homecoming week, DBLO built a float for the parade. lim DeCorpo, senior, said that they were upset about not winning, but they understood that not everybody liked the '60s. President of the club, Ted Lutter said, We're all happ peo le, and we're not trying to be a Ibad in- fluence. We just like to have fun. Life is meant to be lived to the fullestfi lust remember wherever you go, that's where you are, closed Brad Tucker, senior. -,ll ri x 'l 'ffm PI . F. A ' -t Q . . . , v 4 Xt ' 'N 1, ,..,- .
