Olympic Gold In The Summer Of ' 84 1. The Olympic mascot, Sam the Eagle, ex- presses the cheerful optimism of the Olympic spirit. As an eagle, Sam also em- bodies the ideals of the Olympic motto: Citius, Altius, Fortius (swifter, higher, stronger) 2. Although the last time America won an Olympic medal in men ' s gymnastics was in 1932, the United States men ' s gymnas- tic team has high hopes for this year. Peter Vidmar, a UCLA student, won the INCAA all-around, and promises to be the stron- gest contender for Olympic gold. Vidmar feels he ' ll have an advantage at the compe- tition- Home city, home school, home court 3. The only events in the Olympics requiring man and animal working together, the equestrian events, held at Santa Anita Park, include show-jumping, dressage, and a special three-day event, stressing speed, endurance and the rider ' s skill at perform- ing specific classical movements. 4. Long Beach will be the sight of all the Olympic yachting events, including, for the first time, boardsailing (pictured), a combination of surfing and sailing which began in the 1960 ' s and was approved for Olympic competition in 1983. 5. The Olympic symbol, Stars in Motion , depicts the star, the universal symbol of man ' s highest aspirations, with horizontal bars expressing the speed of competitors. The repeated star shows the spirit of com- petition between equals. 6. One event included in the 1984 Olympics returns us to a time of knights and chival- ry. The fencing competition will be held on a theatrical stage at the Long Beach Con- vention Center, where judges and specta- tors will dress in formal attire to watch the sabre, foil and epee competitions. 7. Among others, top American diver Greg Louganis will compete for Olympic gold in the new open-air stadium provided by the McDonald ' s Corporation for the 1984 Olympics. All the synchronized swim- ming, water polo, swimming and diving finals will be held there. If J9dl L A Olympic Committee

Pepsters Band Together To Promote School Spirit This year ' s 83-84 pep unit consisted of twenty-five girls, all reacfiing for tfie same goals. Their goals were to promote school spirit, excite the crowds at games or rallies, and to get everyone to join in with their school spirit. There was much more behind being a pep member than just the name. To become a pep member there were many weeks of hard work to prepare for screening. The girls were judged on precision, originality and personal- ity as well as confidence. After passing screening, the girls had to perform in front of the school and the students voted and select ed the girls they thought would best represent the school. The girls practiced long hours after school on their cheers and moves to prepare for the games. With help and support from one an other they were able to make-up cheers or use the ones passed on through the years. On Friday afternoons the girls could be seen by the A.S.B. office painting posters to be used for the games and for delivering to their secret buddies. Each girl on a squad was assigned to one or more members of a team. She then delivered her poster and some goo- dies to her secret buddy the night before each game. This year ' s squad leaders were Janine Free- man-head varsity cheerleader, Chris Tan-head varsity songleader, Stella Cardenas-head var sity flagtwirler, and Cici Morris-head junior varsity cheerleader.
