-..rs L l full time job ho was there through all kinds of weather? No, itis not the mailman, but the DBHS pepsters. Through rain, fog, and even severe heat the dedicated pepsters could still be found cheering their hearts out. It was really hard going to at least three games a week. Sometimes we'd have to be at one game right after the other. Homework? Who's got time for homework? You can't mix Trigonometry with soccer, wrestling, and basket- ball! stated Jia Oak, head Varsity Songleader. lt was not an unusual sight at DBHS to see a pepster ar- riving an hour or so early to school. With teeth chattering, gloves on, and posters in her hands the dedicated pepster spent her morining putting up posters for the day's sports. After school, they could be found practicing a cheer or cheering for the tennis team. That's right, the tennis team. The pepsters not only cheered for the football and basket- ball players, but for the baseball, wrestling, soccer, softball, volleyball, cross-country, and tennis players as well. The average pepster cheered at three to four games a week and spent several hours after school practic- ing, practicing, and more practicing. lt's a full-time job, but it's worth it, commented Head Varsity Cheerleader, Stephanie Garcia.

The Ger- man Club celebrated the occasion by having a carnival with games and food booths. The highlight was the crowning of the 1987 Miss Oktoberfest, Sabrina Grajeda. This year we had the most successful Oktoberfest ever, commented Nicole Upadhye, senior. The purpose of the German Club was to provide students with cultural events and unity, which supports the academic aspect of learning German. The German Club ac- complished this by celebrating Oktoberfest, having a tradi- tional Christmas party, and by participating in food day and International Week. The German Club had 146 members, which were mainly students from the German classes. The officers were Nicole Upadhye iPresidentl, Laurie Brookhouzen iVice- Presidentl, Sabrina Grajeda iSecretaryi, Christina Landolfi iFinance Directorl. The advisor was Finn Englying.

META ADELPHON OFFICERS - Jean Koo, Helen Choe, Sarah Akhunji, Suna Kang, Eugenie Hsu, and Anita Paryani. SISTERS FOREVER - are Anita Paryani, Sapna Kumar and Cara Abulencia, They were active members in this new sorority. sisterhood 0 t used to be that the only place to join a sorority was at college, but with the start of a new club, things changed. The new club was called Meta Adelphon which meant among sistersn and Jill Paredes was the advisor. According to founding member Sarah Akhunji, the pur- pose of the club was to promote social interaction and com- munity service. ln doing that, Meta Adelphon planned trips to retirement homes just to talk to the people because it's nice to know that someone caresf' said Anita Paryani, secretary and treasurer of the club. Meta Adelphon was an all girl club, and like all college sororities, all members had to go through rush week. Rush week included a day where all pledges had to come to school in their pajamas and a day where each pledge had to wear black and white. This was a test of the girl's sense of humor, said Akhunji. Another event Meta Adelphon planned was to get suc- cessful women to talk to the club about the role women have in society. This was geared toward the younger members of the club so that they could see the importance of going to college and get- ting a good education. We're just out to have a good time but still set a balance and help other people, too, concluded Akhunji. , , ...J .if r f i r-I- li 4 1 , 1, N 1 J if l i uv! 9 meta adelphonforgariizations 49
