Whether it was music, sports, fashion, or academics, the pressure to be best overall was always the dominating factor involved. San G. students experienced this competition full force; the Spartans received the recognition of being on top! The ' 83 Summit staff became entangled in this web of contesting to be number one as they strived to produce the most rewarding and satisfying yearbook possible. In order to whet the appetites of students who awaited the delivery of the annual in the spring, the staff sold Summit Cookie Bars. These bars served the purpose of not only being a fundraiser, but were a sensory reminder to buy the 1983 yearbook. To promote annual sales and arouse the interest of students, an assembly was held on November 5. Summit adviser Mrs. Sabens, editors Cheryl Provence and Karen Clemens, photographer Chuck Johnson of Johnson ' s Photography, and Jane Kasel and Dick Lo Pochin from Taylor Publishing Company all spoke at the assembly, promoting the yearbook. A slide show featuring San G ' s football teams ' Hell Week ' ' during the summer was presented. Another slide show entitled An Annual Celebration was a big hit. The conclusion to a year ' s worth of anticipation resulted in the distribution of yearbooks on Jun e 7. Accompanying the annual, complementary Summit Bar was als handed out. From then on, San Gorgonio was able to truly get a Taste of the Things got hot in San Bernardino . SAN BERNARDINO ALL-AMERICA CITY Je I Take a hike ■ he new fashion craze at San Gorgonio was the backpacks. Everyone owned one to keep up with the fad and the numerous books. The result of the closed lockers on campus brought the sale of backpacks. They were sold during registration and throughout the year at the student store. Students could choose from three sizes and a few different colors. The smallest pack at $6.00 was referred to as the tie back, while the most commonly bought pack was the $8.00 zipped backpack. The most expensive pack at $24.00, with a leather bottom, was the largest of the three. Many of San G ' s students were forced to use packs to carry their books, which had been put in lockers during years past. Yolanda Ledezma, a junior commented, They ' re troublesome to carry around. Jane Singer, class of ' 84 added, Backpacks get heavy after awhile. There were some good points and bad points as junior Cathy Haubner stated, At least you never forget your homework, but then again you have to take it everywhere, including lunch.

They were on bumperstickers, teeshirts, mugs, buttons, and even folders. These little red hearts were part of a fad that hit San Gorgonio ' s campus. It was the I Love craze. Students loved everything from soap operas, like Ryan ' s Hope, to shoes like Vans. Anna Hernandez, senior, had an I 9 General Hospital bumpersticker on her Pinto. I used to watch General Hospital all the time but now I like All My Children. My sister bought me the sticker to put on my banana mobil. Probably the most popular Hfsaying was that of animals. Bumperstickers and pins could be purchased at almost any card shop saying HP ' my and the breed of dog, cat, or bird. Junior Laura Brown showed her favorite animal with an ffPCats keychain. Cities and states were also very popular. I had my I England button made because that ' s where I ' d rather live. I used to live there for about five years and I loved it, remarked sophomore Stella Ruiz. With all these Hfbumperstickers around, leadership decided to reap some profits by selling Iffthe Spartans bumperstickers for $ 1 .00 in the student store. Not only did these colorful rectangular stickers brighten up the campus, but they also showed everyone ' s concern for the things that meant the most.

San Gorgonio has taken pride and much time in preparation for assemblies. These were an exciting part of Fridays and the announcement of the upcoming sports. The assemblies were held in the 10:50 to 11:30, and many students took the time to attend these spirited events. Most pep assemblies were very rowdy. The leadership would perform cheers to get the audience in a spirited mood. This would be followed by a routine t choreographed by the poms or varsity cheers. Most of the time a selected varsity team member would speak to the crowd about their sport. Many of the assemblies were to promote the football team and their upcoming games. Other assemblies were given for special occasions. The Homecoming assembly was held to choose a Homecoming queen. Each candid ate, accompanied by an escort, would walk across the gym floor, while being introduced by Mr. Haley, principal. At the end of each assembly, the student body would sing the Alma Mater, led by the band. Doreen Amador was the director of all assemblies. San Gorgcnio had many pleasant and successful ones in the past, and whether it was pep or just student life, assemblies showed that school could be fun combined with learning.

Tahqultz Peak is the dominant feature of this attractive high country region and it lifts to a stony 8,828 feet. The lookout atop the peak is serviced by trail — no road crosses this wilderness. Left: After a previously rainedout class picture, seniors are treated to a day of sunshine. The photo was rescheduled on October 27. A senior can most definitely be described as someone who has made it to the top. The class of 1983 reached the summit of their high school years at the beginning of the fall semester. As upperclassmen, they had the respect and admiration of the other students as they led the school in sports and academics, as well as in authority. Seniors were the ones who arrived at the top after a long, grueling climb through classes, practice for athletics or band, cafeteria food, dull teachers, mountains of homework, dating, and part-time jobs. They were often regarded as the wise and ex- perienced members of the student body. Special privileges were also part of a senior ' s lifestyle. An upperclassman had a wide choice of classes and a schedule which would be most beneficial for him. Some seniors chose not to take a full schedule and work at a part-time job, while others took ad- vantage of the advanced math and science classes in preparation for college. Along with the authority and privileges of being a senior came a great amount of responsibility. As they looked toward becoming adults, they had to plan a career for the future. Deciding whether to go on to a future profession or go on to college was a crucial decision for the graduate to make. Then, if college was the choice, much work was in order for the applicant. Applying for scholarships became a responsibility for many of the seniors planning to go to college. The seniors also had the responsibility of maintaining the high level of school spirit and pride which kept the student body united. Many senior girls became members of the leadership squad so they could pro- mote school spirit. The senior guys excelled in athletics, whether on the field, courts, or in the pool. Dedication to a squad for three or four years was an honor shared by many seniors and letters on lettermen jackets were a common sight at San G. As graduation approached, the class of 1983 participated in many events designed exclusively for the seniors. The prom was given by the junior class for the seniors as a farewell. Then there was Grad night held at Disneyland and senior beach day and the senior picnic. Soon to follow was Bac- calaureate held on Sunday, June 12. Finally, the day of graduation arrived. As the seniors prepared for the important event, they looked back and reflected on their high school days. They remembered the last football game, building homecoming floats, sitting through sometimes dull classes, and the trauma of being a freshman. With a small amount of anticipation, they looked ahead. It was time for the seniors to climb to the next summit. To go on with their lives and to strive for the top as they prepared to leave San Gorgonio High School. editor: Gwen Bradac section assistant: Patty Muga Officers demonstrate leadership : row: Anna Hernandez.

With Mark Miyashiro as president, the seniors participated in the building of a Homecoming float and regular fund raisers such as car washes and candy sales. Other officers, Vice- president — Lori Rynn, Secretary — Anna Hernandez, and Treasurer — John Kocher, were an extreme help to Mark and the senior class throughout the year. Many decisions had to be made con- cerning graduation; its location and date, the time and who would be speak- ing. Graduation was held on the football field on June 16. It followed the Sunday Baccalaureate ceremony, which was held in the gymnasium. Before leaving high school, seniors were treated to the Junior-Senior Prom, which was a gift from the Juniors. It was held in Ontario at the Red Lion Inn on May 28. The traditional Grad Nite at Disneyland was the final celebration by all seniors to enjoy bands, rides, and fun before they received their diplomas. !k feki April L. Abreau April L.

Johnson Photography had moved in to catch some shots of the class of ' 83. Appointments by seniors were made at the beginning of the school year. Most seniors either came to school dressed for the occasion or had their pictures taken on a weekend. The man behind the camera was Chuck Johnson. He came every day from Hemet to do the job. Having operated a studio in Hemet for the past eighteen years, Johnson was definitely not a newcomer to the field of photography. The idea of using a trailer instead of an in studio location was a change of pace. This trailer situation is a whole new experience for us. Nobody seemed to have any complaints, however, and Johnson seemed pleased with the results. This photographer also had his own secret for success. The trick is to just try to communicate with people. The students seem to be pretty responsive. Several students liked this idea. Kelly Joslin seemed to agree. I think it was convenient to have the photographer on campus. Sharon Rossi didn ' t mind too much about the trailer situation either. It was kind of hot though. The heat didn ' t pose too much of a problem, however. Not only did the students seem to like this new concept, but the faculty approved of it as well. Seniors were not out of class for more than a half hour or so. Mr. Emery didn ' t mind his students being out of class. It doesn ' t bother me. I think it sounds like a pretty good method. Mr. Shepherd also had only good comments about Johnson Photography. I think we have a very efficient guy. We ' ve had very positive results. Since things went so smoothly, Johnson is ready to accom- modate San G in the future. If the students and teachers are willing, the trailer may be back to freeze yet another frame of a smiling senior.

Among the list of deceased entertainers were a handful of truly gifted actors and actresses whose talents will be missed by all. Famous for his characterizations in Bye Bye Birdie, Under the Yum Yum Tree and well known by TV viewers as the center celebrity on the Hollywood Squares game show, was Paul Lynde. He died January 11, 1982. Well known, former Saturday night Live star John Belushi, died at the age of 33 after a drug overdose of cocaine and heroin on March 5, 1982. Together with Dan Ackroyd, he created the character of Jake and Ellwood, the Blues Brothers. The first host of the morning program The Today Show, Dave Garroway, took his own life on July 21 , 1982. Some of his other achievements includ- ed his work in the news media. After the death of actor Vic Morrow on July 25. controversy arose over the safety of the set and props used to shoot the scene in which he was killed by a helicopter blade The movie Twilight Zone was being filmed on a river bed location outside Hollywood when an explosive discharge caused the helicopter to lose control Two child actors were also killed in the accident. Perhaps the most distinguished actor to ever work in films died August 12, 1982. Henry Fonda died of natural causes at the age of seventy seven. Mr. Fonda was well known for his excellent performances in The Grapes of Wrath, Mr. Roberts, and his Oscar-winning portrayal of Norman Thayer in On Golden Pond, which came to be his last film. Ingrid Bergman became the only person this year to receive an Emmy Award posthumously for her role in A Woman Called Golda. Her death on August 30, which was also her sixty-seventh birthday, followed a long bat tie against cancer. The princess of Monaco and former actress Grace Kelly, died from in- juries sustained in a car accident on September 14 She was well known for her role in Country Girl, for which she received an Academy Award. Marty Feldman, accredited for his portrayal of Igor in Young Franken- stein suffered a heart attack which took his life on December 3. Country music star. Marty Robbins, suffered a heart attack and died on December 9. Mr Robbins was noted for his song El Paso, which was one of his 43 famous songs. Jack Webb, creator of the Sgt. Joe Friday, the main character of the memorable radio and TV series Dragnet, died in December 1982. Throughout the years, these entertainers brought many hours of enter- tainment to countless numbers of movie-goers.

During the year a few campus organizations, classes, and student government were given opportunities to support school spirit and educa- tional expansion in this manner. The San Gorgonio chapter of Interact, a Rotary sponsored club, was fortunate enough to host visiting Japanese students in an effort to work with and understand other cultures and people. Student Council attended a seminar at Cal State San Bernardino with the student governments of other local high schools. The objective was to organize and discuss needs for the following school year due to the closure of Pacific High School and various other issues. A laser and holography symposium was the trip taken by Mr. Lundy, San G. ' s physics instructor, and his students Robert Vaughan and Patty Muga. Future and present technology in the fields of laser application and related fields were discussed. Other organizations on campus such as the Daytrippers and BSCI had planned entertaining trips. BSCI organized a trip to the CISC vs. UCLA basketball game. The main reason for this? Of course to see the performance of last year ' s graduating Spar- tan Slam-dunker Gerry Wright as a Trojan freshman. The Daytrippers had always been known for their trips to the tap- ings of popular television programs and this year was no dif- ferent with their full agenda of Hollywood ' s television productions. All in all, many seniors were given the opportunities to ex- perience both fun and educational trips off campus. Maureen Clark Michael F. Clark Robert Clark Michael F.

Henry has been modeling for approximately one and a half years and doesn ' t plan on quitting his modeling career for some time to come. Why quit? He has become a successful, profes sional model with a promising dancing career ahead of him as well. Success seems to come naturally for Henry On June 6, 1982. he was selected top male model in his area at the Barbizo n School of Modeling. What made Henry decide to become a model in the first place? Because I want to be an enter tainer and I figured that modeling will get me the exposure I need. Henry has been taking dance classes at San Bernardino Valley College but plans to further his experience later on by attending (JCLA or the California Institute of the Arts. He also plans to travel to Europe to get involved with a top Euro- pean modeling agency and pick up on his singing career on the side. Henry did his first fashion show for Sears at Bobby McGee ' s Restaurant and from then on has been involved in various shows throughout the San Bernardino area. He recalls his best show as being a hair show where he posed in a punk hair cut and a space jump suit Henry likes to work in bizarre or futuristic clothing. How does somebody get involved in a modeling and dancing career like Henry? I think that you should go to classes so that you know what you ' re doing. Dancing helps your posture and also helps your movement to flow. Henry thinks of Debbie Allen as being the top dancer chore- ographer in her field. He hopes to parallel Allen ' s career by rising to the top of my field in model- ing and by being the best entertainer I can possibly be. Henry has some advice to anyone who wants to get involved in modeling and dancing. My advice is to be dedicated to it, to keep to it, to know for sure that that ' s what you want to do in your life. Don ' t care what people say Do what you want to do. Just strive to be the best you can be.

Among the most popular choices for college bound students were UCR, UCLA, UCSD, and the University of Southern California. If the decision of a college wasn ' t hard enough, there was also the job of meeting financial requirements to at- tend college. The scholarship club, advised by Mrs. Mendez, Mr. Lundy and Mr. Plimley, was organized to inform students of scholarships being offered and of the format of making a scholar- ship notebook. In the notebook, students were re- quired to write an autobiography, discuss career, and educational goals and their family background. Recom- mendations, community involvement and school activities also played a large role in the scholarship notebook. Various scholarship organizations such as the Bank of America Scholarship Program, which ranged from awards of $500 to $1,000 and the Gemco Scholar- ship were competed for by means of a written essay concerning the nation ' s economy. Among the other prestigious scholar- ships were the Southern California Edison and the Josten ' s Foundation Scholarships. Local award committees learned of high achieving seniors by means of their scholarship notebooks. Though most awards were applied for in the fall, all were announced in June to their grantees. Before completing his application for a Cal Grant. Bob Vaughan muddles over the in the booklet. Each year, thousands of dollars are awarded to eligible, high ranking seniors.

Among these were trying courses such as advanced psychology. Many of these students found the class to be one of the most difficult in their attendance at San G, but nearly all agreed that the course was very interesting and well worth the work. Everything from the biological side of the subject to the behavioral aspects was taught to eager students. Various assignments during the year, such as term pro- jects, were required. The first of these projects consisted of field study in the areas of child behavior or em- bryology. The students gathered background information on their topics and further explored them by working with children in local elementary schools or by experienc- ing a tour through Loma Linda University embryology museum. Other projects included psychological case studies performed by students with students being the topics of research. Demanding tests and long hours of studying were also elements of the class which were in- tended to prepare these college bound seniors for their future college careers. Besides the curriculum, one of the major reasons why students enjoyed the course was due to its instructor Ms. Peg Lawrence. With her expression of true enthusiasm for the subject, many students attribute their inspired interest of psychology to Ms. Lawrence. Her teaching style really makes the class enjoyable and worthwhile, stated Cindy Perez. Throughout the year, the students were allowed to ex- plore several aspects of human behavior, while attending this, one of San G ' s most unique courses.

Walter saves his playing time for Arrowhead Athletic Club where he practices for tournaments. I never enjoyed team sports, so I took up rac quetball. I joined a club where a top competitive tournament player took me under his wing and showed me the basics. Two months later, he entered his first tourna ment at Canyon Bluffs. He wasn ' t very successful though. He lost in the first round. That didn ' t discourage Walter for he returned four months later again to Canyon Bluffs, where he took first place. He ' s been playing tournaments and winn- ing ever since. Tournament players compete in different divi- sions. The first division one plays in is Beginning Novice. One then advances to Novice C. B, and A divisions and then Open division. The cost of entering tournaments is between S2O$30. Walter has played in tournaments from San Bernardino to Monterey and back down to San Diego. He competed at Westminister where pro competitors also played as an added attraction to the regular competition. He also competed in tour sponsored by Arrowhead Athletic Club, Fiesta Village, and Montclair Racquest Time. As Walter has risen in the ranks of racquetball, he has won such tournaments as a first place C division in the West Covina tournament, first place B division singles in the San Gorgonio in vitational, first place B division doubles at Montclair, and first place B division doubles at Hacienda Heights. When Walter isn ' t practicing for tournaments, he is kept busy with his part-time job at McDonald ' s. He is undecided whether or not to go into the Air Force or go into college, but he definitely wants to become a pilot.

Being a resident of Southern California often had its recreational advantages, especially for those interested in sports ranging from surfing to snow skiing. San Bernardino ' s location made it possible for San Gorgonio ' s students to take advantage of the numerous out- door activity facilities. During the warmer months, Southern Califor- nians flocked to the beaches and rivers for sunbathing, surfing, and skiing, but the winter months seemed to affect the students in a much more dramatic way. The arrival of rain on a chilly day meant snow in the mountains nearby, causing noticeable shortages of students in attendance on a given weekday. Ms. Lawrence, the instructor for the advanced psychology class stated, An education cannot always be confined to the four walls of a classroom. The San Bernardino mountains made many winter sports facilities available to the students of San G. Andy Sheats, one senior who fre- quented the Snow Summit ski resort, was heard to say, Skiing is definitely more fun than English! Along with skiing, the mountains also provided sledding, tobog- ganing, and inner tubing enjoyment. Many students simply traveled to the eight thousand foot level for a change of scenery and a breath of fresh air. Before the warm weather began melting the snow, many San Gorgonio students were able to take advantage of the slopes before the Spring thaw.

Guided by the Homecoming theme Future Fan- tasy, the seniors chose ' 83 nonstop to the top, as their title. Main headquarters for the building of the float was first placed at vice president Lori Rynn ' s house. Later the float site was moved to Jack Negrete ' s house, where it was eventually completed. Pete Phern- sangngam and a few other seniors worked on the design of the float. A rocket to the stars was the main feature. Mapkins, chicken wire, and lumber were donated to contribute to th e creating of the project. Mike Houser obtained a truck for the platform and Doug Mitchell transferred the raw materials. After three weeks the float was completed. Dedicated seniors worked till the early morning hours to finish. Due to bombing disputes between the junior and senior classes, both class floats were disqualified from the competition. The sophomore class was chosen as the victor of the 1982-83 San Qorgonio Homecoming Parade. Although they did not win, Vice President Lori Rynn felt that the seniors worked very hard. There were a lot of people who really wanted to work on it and those who did tried their best.

A lot of dedication and time was demanded of these musi- cians during their involvement with one or more of these ensembles Among the most dedicated and en thusiastic members of the band were also students in the class of ' 83. Leroy Boan — tuba, trumpet, Trinis Chapman — tuba, Cindy Perez — baritone, bells, Charis Faulkner — flute, Susan Lewis — flute, Vicki Corona — flute, Valerie Gray — clarinet, Myra-Joi Anderson — flute, David Verkest — trumpet, David Lassiter — trumpet, french horn, JoEva Peabody — percussion, and Robert Tolliver — drum-major, sax ophone, and oboe player were the Spartan senior musicians. Many of these people had been involved with music department during a large portion of their attendance at San G. Not only were these seniors in San G ' s instrumental groups, but many were also members of community and other extracurricular musical activities. On Friday nights, the band performed their routines of Los Diablos, Winner ' s Circle, Firebird, Notre Dame, and of course the Alma Mater at home sporting events. Some of the highlights of the senior class were David Lassiters solos on the trumpet and Cindy Perez center stage with the bells. The entire band kept the Spartan spirit alive in the stands during football and basketball seasons. Cinder the direction of Mr. Doug Emerson, the Dixie Land group also contributed to the cause. This having been Mr. Emerson ' s last year at San G., many seniors in the band felt very lucky to have been under his direction.

Here I sit, for an entire six hours while I listen to the seconds tick by on the clock above the door to the free world. If you haven ' t guessed by now, this is a true and factual account of the goings on of the OCS classroom. OCS is the abbreviation for On Campus Suspension which is like a punishment by torture. This is where it all begins, after a set amount of tar dies or truancies student may be informed by his or her vice principal that he is nor being a good student and must therefore serve his time in OCS. More severe sentences are given for more drastic situations, but generally two days of all six periods is the usual suspension time When the administration assigns you to OCS, you are given a form which must be signed by your parents. The fun part is explain ing to Mom and Dad why you were tardy to first period so many times when they dropped you off at 7: Warn every day. (the broken locker excuse is no longer valid) I arrived at school early the first day because it would not be wise to be late for this, too. Making sure to take in all of the sights and sounds of the busy quad, I took short slow steps. I sucked in my last breath of fresh air and grabbed the door knob to D-6 while I glanced to be sure that no one saw me go in there. Ugh, I ' m in. My name? Uhhh . . I whispered softly to the teacher my name and grade hoping that no one heaid it — praying to remain anonymous. Luckily, I recognized no one and no snickering could be heard from the back, so I sighed, relieved but not uneasy. This is my first time in. What do I do? The instructor had me sign a roster, take a seat and find something to do For those of us who didn ' t bring books we were for- tunate enough to practice our penmanship while copying from an outdated biology book. How absolutely educational I suppose half of these people would rather be here than doing legitimate work in a real classroom. After I ' d been sitting long enough to get situated and find a comfortable position to last six hours, the door flew open and a face appeared bellowing, Okay, let ' s go. Restroom break! Everyone stood stretched and moved towards the door an- ticipating the sunshine and fresh air, but not before a head count. I felt like part of a herd of cattle Mooing could be heard from the back of the group as we filed out of the room towards the drinking fountain. Once back in the room I began to get sleepy and had to fight back the yawns that were building up in my bored little body. As the time crawled by, I found myself getting a little hungry. I began to daydream and imagine my friends at Burger King as the aroma of hot popcorn filled the little room from the student store nearby. The worst part about the whole thing is the feeling of total captivity. The bell would ring to change classes, and I looked around to see no one move an inch. The sounds of footsteps, laughter and busy conversation made me ache to get out of that room. The OCS system is ridiculous, but extremely effective. For some students it may be endurable, but for me it was an incredible waste of precious time. Believe me, I ' m never going back there! For those locked in OCS a little bit of humor helps the time pass away.

Kelly ' s farm all started with a quarter horse simply because her family enjoyed horseback riding. T hey started to accommodate ether animals since they enjoyed the horse so very much. Well, pret- ty soon one horse turned into four horses, thirty ducks, two dogs, three cats, five chickens, three sheep, and one turkey. Senior Kelly and her family enjoy raising animals, but, it does take a lot of time. Kelly must make sure that they are fed and watered twice a day. This can make Kelly ' s job at the Highland Twin Cinema a little inconvenient. Sometimes she has to ask to go home because she has forgotten to feed the animals. Kelly does have other interests besides raising animals. She enjoys camping, hiking, waterskiing, and motorcycling. Kelly also plays on the softball team at San Gorgonio.

Many ac- tivities were held along with the ex- change of cards and gifts among friends. The traditional singing of Christmas carols could be heard echo- ing through the halls, but aside from thinking of just family and friends, the San Gorgonio student body, with the sponsorship of student council, organized a food drive for needy families in the San Bernardino area. The students were encouraged to bring canned food and non-perishables to their fourth period class where the donations were collected. At the end of the week of December 13, the class donations were collected and counted. The class with the largest basket was to be the winner of a ten foot grinder, which was paid for by the ASB. On Fri- day, December 17, the special educa- tion class was announced the winner of the grinder and celebrated on January 13 with a party in their classroom. With the amount collected, there was enough to make three baskets of food to feed three families for a week. Stu- dent Council purchased five turkeys and gave two of the three families one turkey each. The third family received two turkeys because they had twelve children. The fifth turkey was donated to the Salvation Army. The Christmas season was a season for giving and the special education students did an exceptional job in prov- ing it. iiM Michael Moody Vallerie Juanita Moore Arnold Morales Kenny Morris i_| i. 1 .

These were lamiliar words as the senior players warmed up for the powderpuff game Approximately forty-five girls attended powderpuff practice every day for two weeks. They started out with basic calisthenics, then advanced to long runs, and piggy back rides up and down the hill behind the gym. After then muscles were ioose. they began to practice the plays. Usually, they split up into offense and defense, and then practiced against each other. Tney also had to learn the specialty teams, such as kick-oft, kick-off return, punt, and punt return. Senior Anna Hernandez commented. The piactices were hard work but worth it in the end when we won. After many practices, the seniors were ready for the game. The players and coaches went to Straw Hat for a pregame pizza dinner funded by a car wash held the Sunday prior to the game. There was much anticipation as the seniors warmed up on the field the night of the game According to Annette Herzberg, Everybody was a little nervous, but once we got on the field, we were determined to win. Alesha Dickson ' s interception sparked a drive, which was capped off by April Abreau ' s twenty three yard touchdown to highlight the first half. The point after was converted by Jill Davis ' one yard plunge After that, it was tough defense and hard hitting that kept the game going. Defense did an excellent job of keeping the juniors from scoring in the fourth quarter, said senior coach Mike Sylvester. As time ran out, ecstatic seniors hugged each other with the trium phant feeling of defeating the juniors with a score of 8 to 6.

Strike the set! It was long ago. But someone should have seen it coming. On the show, To Tell the Truth, which was cancelled years ago. cartoonist Gary Trudeau was asked, How long do you plan to keep drawing this cartoon? Oh, about six years, Trudeau answered. Well, twelve years later, he finally called it quits, temporarily. On January 2, 1983, it was official. The award-winning car- toon Doonesbury was taken off the papers of America. But, as said before, it ' s only temporary. Trudeau wanted some rest and since his contract expired, he decided a 24- month rest was in order. The celebrated strip took its readers to a radio station, foot- ball huddles, and occasional visits to the White House. A cartoon known for its political viewpoints, the last strip was no exception. Opening with the usual White House front view, the comic highlights Edward Meese reporting to Presi- dent Reagan about the usual record unemployment, staggering deficits, and the renewal of the arms race. And what does Reagan say in reply? Great! Stay the course! Mo cartoons had as much impact on American issues as Doonesbury. Never giving away his own personal views on Republicans or Democrats, he simply attacked both sides; do- ing cartoons on Reagan, Carter, Ford, and Mixon. But his talents really shined around elections, taking his readers from campaign headquarters, to radio interviews and all the way to the party conventions. When something big would hit the news, it was covered quickly. To him, no news item was too small. From the recent DeLorean crisis, to the gas crunch, even to the hostage crisis in Iran, where one of his characters was captured by the Ayatollah ' s men. Its popularity was so high, Trudeau was assigned the job of transforming his characters into a TV special, which was a smash success. But until December of 1984, the avid comic fan will have to be satisfied with Bloom County instead.

Contained in the drafting department were the Drafting I, II, III and architecture courses. A recent trend towards the fields of engineering promoted students to enroll in these courses. I think students have realized the need for technical fields, though most are not engineering bound. For the most part many students enroll to explore artistic mechanical drawing. There seems to be a trend of interest towards architecture and related careers, stated drafting instructor Mr. fJhl. Though the engineering field has usually been thought of as a man ' s field, many female stud ents such as Gina Grossman have also shared their interests in the engineering fields. Taking ar- chitecture has aided in my decisions of a future career. It has let me explore my options and abilities in the mechanical drafting and engineering related fields. With the growing need for qualified engineers for the future, San Gorgonio ' s industrial education department was striving to fulfill that requirement with skilled students.

Memorable experiences varied from powderpuff play to Grad night Some memories were that of classroom scenes. Kelly Quiggle remembered trig as a great experience, even though she didn ' t know what a derivative was. A memorable experience for Gary Florin was playing E.T. for his child develop ment project for psychology. Annette Herzberg ' s senior year was highlighted by winning the Citrus Belt League Doubles Title in girls ' tennis. Some memorable experiences weren ' t as fortunate. For Chris DeFonce, breaking his collarbone playing football was un forgettable. For many, memories were connected with some sport. Mark Miyashiro said, The best time in my senior year was when the football team made the CIF playoffs for the first time in ten years. Bob Meyer ' s fondest memory was defeating Eisenhower in football. Frank Havemann ' s best memory was leading the basketball cheer at the games. For many seniors, memorable occasions occurred during the week of Homecoming. Mike Pauper remembered building the senior float as a great time. Being a Homecoming candidate was the peak of Mia Vaughnes ' senior year. Many seniors enjoyed extracurricular activities. To Lori Rynn, varsity flags great year in competition was a happy memory For some senior girls, the Sobobans induction was a night to remember Sandra Dutched recalled the talent show as a memorable event in her senior year. Other seniors just enjoyed reminiscing over simple occurrences of high school life. Spending time with friends and making new ones proved to be significant to Larry Mainez. According to Doug Mitchell, The greatest part of my senior year was graduating. Janet Hobbs, class of ' 83 Valerie Sainz Rodney D.

The class of 83s graduation was held at Spartan Stadium and the Bac- calaureate was held in the Spartan gym. The gowns of blue and biack were dominant at both of these events. Mixed emotions were expressed by many seniors. Beckon Wrysinski stated, All of us have dreamed about graduation day. Mow that it is upon us, it brings out the feel- ings of joy, contentment, and the feeling that you have final- ly fulfilled your dreams. It also brings sadness and confusing feeling about what one is to do after graduation when many friends will be gone. Over all, graduation marks the end of a long time search for oneself and the beginning of a new life to develop. I am very happy to have graduated from San Gorgonio. I have very much enjoyed my stay here. I made friends with many people here and I was honored to have been able to graduate with them, explained Catarina Coelho, Portugal AFS student. Vince Tovar stated, I think it ' s great to be graduating! I ' m not going to miss my classes very much, but I will miss seeing my friends. Graduation is the time that every senior looks forward to. This time is filled with happiness as well as sadness. Graduating is a way of saying I ' ve made it! The memories will be behind us when we are handed our diplomas. The great thing is that no one can ever take those memories away, commented Evelyn Woo. As this class looks back on their years at San Gorgonio, graduation will surely be one of the most memorable ex- periences. The receiving of a diploma marked the degree of success earned by the completion of many years of educa- tion. The progression from childhood to young adulthood was also marked by this event. The spirit of San Gorgonio will remain with us forever. Mow that we face the doors of the future, the promises of tomorrow stand before us. Leonard Frank Serrano Tracy Marie Shaw Andrew C.

When I grow up Among the most common subjects in senior discussions were plans for the future. Aspirations ranged from decisions about college to those about entering the work force. Consider ing that the senior year was the last for the class of ' 83, many of these students felt the need to prepare for obtaining their goals. Seniors were usually anxious to express their ambitions for life after high school. After an exhausting four years of high school, I plan to face another exhausing four years in college. Being able to graduate from college will be my dream. I also hope to find a good pay- ing job, stated Evelyn Woo. Larry Richards explained, I plan to attend Cal Poly, Pomona and major in electrical engineering. My biggest hope is that there will be many good looking women in my life. After high school I plan to continue my education in a state college or university to major in the field of computer information systems. I also hope to be able to work with youngsters in the community, commented Beckon Wrysinski. Cindy Perez stated, I hope to further my experiences in music and the biological sciences. My ultimate ambition is to become a medical doctor and to lead a fulfilling and hap py life. With enthusiasm and many hopes, seniors looked for- ward to the future.

In the meantime, I was busily cramming books, folders, a ruler and everything but the kitchen sink into my tattered backpack. But I have senioritis, I managed to gasp out while dashing down the stairs, late for school as usual . . . Senioritis. Senioritis, noun. 1. An acute infectious psychotic disorder, characterized by apathy, exhaustion, depression, the in- ability to attend class, and later, hysteria. 2. Having or displaying the symptoms of senioritis. (See mental illness) I can ' t figure it out. Last quarter I was doing great. As soon as I ' d get home from school, I ' d finish my homework, clean my room, go to work, and be in bed no later than 9:00. But now ... I can ' t seem to get anything done. What ' s wrong with me? I wonder — no — it couldn ' t be — oh, I don ' t believe this — I think, I think I ' ve got senioritis! It all fit. Those long hours I ' d wasted sitting with glazed eyes, in front of the television, taking an MTV break at 3 am , , . could only be this dreaded disease. Although it strikes only during the third and fourth quarters in high school, its short duration is quite lethal. Senioritis affects approximately 83% of all seniors at San Gorgonio, reports say. The students suffering from this illness are easily identified. Probably most noticeable is his or her lack of energy. Bad posture, dull expression, and intense moodiness are involved. The senior is commonly observed wearing bizarre, unmatching clothes, because he doesn ' t care what others think Symptoms disappear periodically, such as when the bell for lunch rings. Ditching class is the most common ailment of the student who has con- tracted senioritis When rain the night before whispers snow in the suf- ferer ' s head all night long, he possibly has the disease. Taking off to go ski ing the next morning satisfies this craving momentarily. When the weather becomes warmer, and visions of warm, white sand, cool blue-green waves, suntan oil, and beach towels invade the senior ' s mind, he controls those urges by tearing off to the beach. He may experience some embarrassment when he tries to pass off a sunburn as scarlet fever. The final weeks of senioritis are the worst, while the sufferer experiences withdrawal symptoms from the disease. Sadness, or the tendency to burst into tears from frustration, are common occurrences, according to Mr. Emery, teacher of English 4AP. Full-fledged hysteria is inevitable when the student with the illness finally realizes he may fail. Suicidal tendencies are high, with the senior moaning, I can ' t handle it anymore — I just can ' t cope. Spring break marks the end of the senioritis duration and allows for recup eration. Though he may believe he will never be the same, the senior ally recovers and survives.

Sometimes they were announced through the newspaper, and gave the students the deserved credit, but in other cases the recognition was not adequate. Jeff Quiggle was nominated for appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point by Senator Alan Cranston. Selected from 1,000 ap- plicants, based on outstanding academic records, contributions to school and community, Jeff is ranked eleventh in the class with a 3.75 G.P.A. He lettered in football, and track and is a member of the California Scholarship Federation. Frank Havemann was the first student to receive the student of the month award sponsored by the Exchange Club of San Bernardino. Based on school activities, academic record and social service, the recipient was chosen by Mr. Haley and Mr. Bianchi. Frank was ASB President, a member of the waterpolo and swim teams, and filled his most popular role — leading the basket- ball cheer. After taking the PSAT NMSQT test in 1981, Darrel Dorsey became one of fifteen hundred semifinalists competing for the national achieve- ment scholarship program for outstanding Negro students. He then became a finalist, and received a $1,000 scholarship sponsored by the Interna- tional Business Machines. San Gorgonio ' s speech and debate team con- sisting of seniors Nadine Anderson, Mike Gfeller, and Curtis Kubitza participated in numerous tour- naments throughout California. Nadine was awarded various positions in girls Extem- poraneous and Lincoln-Douglas debate and a finalist in Extemporaneous speaking. Mike re- ceived first place American Legion, third place Rotary, and second place Lions club. As one member of the team, he went to the octo-finals at the Patrick Henry Debate Tournament. After debating in the senior scholarship meetings, delegates were screened before representing the school for the Bank of America awards. Darrel Dorsey competed in industrial arts fine arts, Curtis Kubitza in mathematics science, and Jeff Quiggle in social studies. First place received $2,000, second and third received $1,000 and $750, respectively. Other finalists were awarded $500. Karen Whitsell Julie Whittaker David Williams Michael Williams Similar to the B of A awards were the Gemco awards which required debating Darrel Dorsey and Curtis Kubitza were chosen to compete in this contest. Darrel became one of the Finalist, but results were not made public before graduation. Seniors who earned a 4.0 grade point average first semester were Eve Chap- man, Catrina Coelho, Darrel Dorsey, Linda Hanlon, Annette Herzberg, Janet Hobbs, John Kocher, Curtis Kubitza, JoEva Peabody. Cynthia Perez, Larry Ricardo. Heather Schulte, Debra Stein, Robert Vaughan, Julia Lermeno, and Pair, Zumbro. Their photographs were placed In the academic honor role showcase in the A building. Mike Harnden was selected to be a member of the State Honor Choir He was one of two hundred students to be chosen from the state of California After be ing a choir member, he was to go to San Jose and be tested on sight reading, solo singing, and vocal theory which gave him experience in performing. From Phi Delta Kappa, Mike Sylvester was honored for his academic record with a certificate. Joyce Jackson and Jeff Quiggle were nominated for California In- terscholastic Federation Athletes of the year. To earn their standings, they were involved with several sports and had a 3.70 grade point average or better.

It seems truly a ' may ' zing that we, the class of 1983. have reached one of our goals Really though, it wasn ' t all that bad. In fact, it was kind of fun. However, through these four years of fun or misery, (whichever you prefer), I think all of us have learned a lot Not just in our studies — we ' ve also learned a great deal about one another and growing up Friends are what makes high school what it is, right? I bet if each and every one of you were asked what you remember most about San G, it sure wouldn ' t be some test you studied for It would be friendships and the crazy times you had And just because I managed to do okay in the classroom doesn ' t mean I didn ' t have fun. too! So to my bestest friends. Kim. Linda, Janet, Lana. Kelly, Gina. and Frank . . . thanks, it was real fun. Studying is important though Some of my best times were in class. And cer- tainly some of rny worst. Ill never forget when Kim Green and I had detention in Spanish I for talking We could either sit for 1 5 minutes or pick up trash for five. I think I picked up trash. Of course, my sophomore year was fun when everyone looked at me like I had some kind of disease on my hand, because 1 took chemistry then, instead of the traditional junior year (I never was very careful with that silver nitrate.) In the eleventh grade. I managed to get my finger stuck in my car steering wheel and wore it for two hours Talk about dumb! And this year, I ' ve experienced a very severe case of e mbarrassment when 1 was sent to OCS with two friends during third period Like everybody else. I contracted senioritis. from which I may never recover. Through my four years. I think I ' ve perfected the way to appear fascinated when my teacher is rambling on about subordinate clauses, and actually my mind is three miles away. I ' m not sure what all this is leading to. but I now realize that in order to succeed, you don ' t just crack the books every night Priorities have to be set, and so do limits! Procrastination, one of my major flaws, is something everyone should definitely try to overcome. Even though you may believe you ' ll never finish typ ing that term paper, never understand what a torque is, never be able to write 50 vocabulary words by Monday, never be able to write an essay on Madame Bovary or The Red Sadge of Courage without Cliff notes . relax ' Kick back for a while, you ' ve deserved it. I guess the point I ' m trying to make is that high school should be fun. so make sure you enjoy it while you still can. Cheryl Provence class of ' 83 ■ ; .- ' -ittiKl IK?) m vSA 4 ' - i ywfe Robert F. Vaughan Valedictorian Cheryl Provence Salutatorian In these past four years at San Gorgonio, I have been extremely lucky. Mot only have some very fine teachers impart on me a bit of their knowledge, but I have also gained the friendship and respect of many students and teachers. I will greatly value the friendships that I have made at San G for the rest of my life, and I am proud to have this chance to thank some of my friends giving me such good times and fond memories. I would like to thank some of my special friends, Dan, Tim, Doug, Mario, Brad, and others, for the fun that we had in school and out of school. These people gave me times that I will remember forever. Even when we got into trouble because we just couldn ' t seem to get back to school on time, we had fun because we were all in trouble together. I would also like to thank some of the people whom I wasn ' t always able to get together with after school, but with whom I had many terrific experiences during school, such as Robert, Kim, Patty, Darrell, Pam, Beth and David, and others. Many teachers are also dear to me for many different reasons, and I would like to thank some of them also for the friendship, support, and guidance that they have given me over the past four years. I would like to thank Mr. (Jhl and Mrs. Ellison for their understanding, and Mr. Dyer, who always had a friendly word and an open ear, for his friendship and respect. I would also like to thank Mr. Palmgren for striking up a conversation with me about anything and everything when he could see that I did not want to start my homework in class. There are others, such as Mr. Lees, Ms. Zanders, and Mr. Roberts, to whom I am thankful because they always respected me and regarded me as a friend. % k i Although there are other friends whom I have failed to men- tion, they know that they are just as dear to me as those whose names I have listed here. I would like to remind all of my friends that although we may be separated by great distances, they will always be close in my heart, and I would like to dedicate this poem to them: Life is sweet because of the friends we have made And the things which in common we share We want to live on, not because of ourselves But because of the ones who would care It ' s living and doing for somebody else On that all of life ' s splendor depends. And the joy of it all, when we count it all up Is found in the making of friends. Robert Vaughan, class of ' 83 Top left: Intently listening to Mr Lowe ' s English lecture is April Abreau.

Even though many changes occurred: such as a new principal, the OCS (On Campus Suspension) Program, and the nonusage of street lockers to mention a few, Spartans still maintained their high spirits. Difficult as it may have been at times, especially at the end of each quarter and whenever bad weather hovered above, the loyalty of the Spar- tans shined through. Supporting their clubs, their sports, and themselves through academic achievement was something for each individual to be proud of. Basically a student ' s life consisted of eating, sleeping, and going to school. Getting involved was the answer to boredom. There were so many activities to get involved in too. There were plen- ty of activities going on throughout the year: assemblies were held to promote football and basketball games, in- troduce team members, and a variety of other things ranging from class com- petition to a presentation of formal evening wear; Homecoming week, which consisted of unusual ideas such as Rock-a-Billy day, stuffed animal day, and tie day; float building, which was one of the most competitive activities of the entire year; Halloween came around and everybody had a chance to dress up and show their true per- sonalities; then the carnival came to town; ICC day involved everyone who wanted to be involved. If one didn ' t find themselves in the middle of those ac- tivities, there was always Friday nights and a radical crowd cheering on the var- sity football and basketball teams. There was also the Powderpuff game. Senior and Junior girls had a chance to put on the jerseys and tackle an oppo- nent. The guys, the really bold ones, had a chance to put on the skirts, and like any other cheerleader, stand in front of an enormous crowd and get it roaring. Roaring with laughter in this case. If students didn ' t enjoy, or couldn ' t bring themselves to be totally radical, there were always activities which involved self-achievement and group participation. The marching, con- cert, and jazz bands, for instance, had individual musicians who worked as a group. Their involvement showed loyal- ty to the school as well as providing self satisfaction. For those who enjoyed Mexican dance, there was Folklorico. Drill team, tall flags, and color guard were groups that supported home foot- ball games by performing as groups. On the formal side of school activities was the newspaper and annual staffs. Their main job was to establish memories on paper, through pictures and writing, so that they would not be forgotten. Lastly, there was the junior- senior prom. This was the major activi- ty of the year, next to graduation, of course. The Spartans involvement, class and individual participation, loyalty to their school, high hopes for the future, and scholastic achievement, made it an ex- citing year, one which erupted with spirit.

Editor: Gina Cooper Mudent life •Si Student council officers gain responsibility First semester student council members had a busy term. They planned such activities as ICC Day, dress-up week for Homecoming, the Homecoming Carnival, a movie, and plenty of pep assemblies. Student Council members were elected se cond quarter of the school year to serve the re- mainder of that school year and first semester of the next. They put up posters, handed out stickers, and made speeches hoping to be elected. If they were elected, they took over their new office second semester. ASB Secretary Mia Vaughnes said. Being on student council is very time consuming, but it gives you a sense of responsibility. Over the summer, members of the council met three times so they could plan a smooth freshman orientation. This event was held in the gym before registration and members of the council were introduced and later escorted freshmen on a tour of the campus. During registration, they assisted those students needing help with their schedules and also ran errands. The football Homecoming preparations were time consuming A carnival held in the student parking lot took time to arrange and publicize. Although not financially successful, the car- nival provided club members with a chance to work together over a weekend. Other activities such as ICC Day, a Christmas food drive and weekly pep assemblies made an office on council a hectic one. But the most important ASB decision was the upcoming transition of Pacific High School students. Council members met once at California State College, San Bernardino with other representative students from high schools in the district. They discussed ways to make the fall school opening smooth and successful. District Student Congress members met regularly at the school district office to update other councils and plan the transition Student Council members met fourth period daily and with the help of adviser Coach Doug Stockham, planned the activities that gave San G students spirit.

The Summit ' s where it ' s at Over the past summer, the annual staff chose to attend an exciting camp which helped them learn how to put together a better yearbook. They learned how the photographers could improve their pictures and how the editors could improve the book. The camp was in Santa Barbara. The food at camp was terrible, commented one student But overall it was a beneficial camp Besides learning many new ideas for layouts, the Summit staff studied fund raising techniques at camp. Among these new ideas was the idea of a sales assembly. Their assembly was held on Friday, November 5, to promote the yearbook. They had a slide pro- gram on the football players ' Hell Week, which charged the crowd with excitement. Many students said it was one of the best assemblies of the year. The staff hoped that it would en courage students to purchase their annuals before the November 30 deadline. To raise additional funds for the book, the staff had ad campaigns, sold See ' s suckers, and had candy sales. This was another way for the annual staff to rake in extra dollars. They sold different kinds of candy bars, but their favorite bars to sell were Summit bars They hoped to make money to attend summer camp in 1983. Every student who bought a Summit candy bar was reminded of the 1983 Summit yearbook due out in June. Every stu- dent who bought a Summit yearbook, receiv ed a Summit candy bar when books were distributed. The staff had a pleasant surprise in November when they found out that the 1982 Summit had won two awards from the American Scholastic Press Association One award was for first place with special merit and the other was for outstanding theme development. The staff used the announce- ment of these awards to help boost sales. Jeff Robinson, class of ' 84 msust:?. Above right: Advertising manager, Debbi Clark, prepares bills for Summit patrons.

Attendance at assemblies rises Did you ever stop to think what assemblies really were? Most students took the assemblies for granted. It wasn ' t just a place where one gathered with friends, it was a place where messages were conveyed. In San G ' s gymnasium assemblies were held to promote such things as annual sales and carnival participa- tion; also to introduce athletes and to encourage all teams on to victory and increase Spartan spirit. During the assemblies, a variety of events occurred, beginning with the Pledge of Allegiance and then on to the speaker who would tell of the upcoming events. Often the crowd participated in class competitions ranging from tricycle races to pie eating contests. Other assemblies in- cluded watching students perform songs, skits, and dances. Most assemblies were held before lunch. With the principal ' s approval, periods one through four were short- ened in order to have enough time for both the assembly and lunch. Many students enjoyed assembly day because they had the option of attend- ing or going off campus for an extra long lunch. Many missed the excitement of the pep assemblies and the spirit they generated. Doreen Amador, Director of Pep, stated that at the assemblies, spirit was very high. Our spirit this year was great. Our attendance was a little bit bigger this year. I hope next year we can keep our spirit going.

Three tries for a dollar! Like to try your luck, sir? That ' s carney talk. These, and so many more expres sions could be heard on San Gorgonio ' s student parking lot during the third weekend of October. That ' s when the carnival came to town. Student Council planned the car- nival to raise money for school clubs. It ended as a big school activity that lifted spirit because most every club on campus participated. Club members were encouraged to run games and food booths that would in turn raise money for their particular club. Mecha, Showgroup, Alive, Faculty club and CSF ran the food and drink booths. They sold combo cups, pop- corn balls, candy and caramel apples, corndogs, and soda to wash it all down with. Diamond, AFS, freshmen class and German club, just to name a few, ran a variety of game booths. Nearly everyone, old and young, had a good time. I had a blast the two days I went, com mented junior, Bethie Brubaker. Of course, with a carnival comes rides. Nearly all went up and down and round and round. There were also rides for the little ones. There was the scrambler, a giant yellow slide, and a ferris wheel. I got sick on the yellow bathtub ride, said Kimale Sue Hud- son, a junior at San G. Even after money was spent, car- nival food was eaten, and stomachs were settled after radical rides, children, students, parents and grand- parents alike could come home from San G ' s first carnival and honestly say that they had a good time.

Every Friday, football players and cheerleaders dressed in school colors for that night ' s football game. Homecoming week came and people wore three foot spotted ties. Dad ' s old neckties, and big bow ties. They wore baggy shirts and plaid pants on Rock a- Billy day, and black, blue and white on school Halloween was the most unusual day of all for dressing up. Clowns, ghosts, witches, vam- pires, and cats invaded the grounds. Some of the unigue costumes, such as the favorable cartoon character Smurf, a pair of dice, and many more were noticed throughout the day. They got peculiar looks and comments from all who passed. Individuality, character, and overall school spirit was shown through a costume that one chose. For instance, trying to choose a dif- ferent . more unusual costume showed uniqueness. One ' s character could be brought out by a costume. A clown costume could per suade a person to become more outgoing, more laughable. Whereas an angel costume could make a person more timid Dressing up and getting involved in school activities promoted school spirit It helped remove the pressures of everyday school life and by doing so. made a happier student body. After all. you are what you wear. 76 student life Above left: Tie Day. during Homecoming week, is thoroughly enjoyed by all par ticipants Jeff Solis and Mr Satterfield enjoy the view of the carnival midway Above: Mike Gardner and Don Bradley model the fashions of up town on Hallo- ween.

Above right: Grand Marshals, Ms. Lawrence and Mr. Bianchi lead the Homecoming parade Right: The water polo float shows high achievement in sports. This float takes second place in the competition. Everybody loves a parade, especial ly San Gorgonio ' s Homecoming parade, which was held October 22, 1982. The participants stepped off from the Highland Congregational Church at the corner of Palm and Atlantic at 3:30 pm. Judges, Grand Marshalls, Homecoming candidates, floats, and lots of students prepared for their route to their Alma Mater. To the disappointment of many, on- ly three floats entered — Aqua Athletics, the sophomores, and the freshmen. The reason for the absence of the senior and junior floats was because of an old tradition. Seniors destroyed the junior float and the juniors sought revenge. After the hard work of many, these two floats were demolished beyond repair. It didn ' t matter though, because both were dis- qualified after the catastrophe was heard about on campus. Float awards were given. The sophomores received first place, Aqua Athletics took second honors and the freshmen float came in third. All the preparations for the Our Future Fantasy ' ' Homecoming parade were under the direction of Student Council members and headed by Jan- et Hobbs, treasurer of Student Council. The parade went really well this year. The participants were en- thusiastic and cooperative. People in the community even got involved by watching from their porches along the parade route and responding with applause. Coach Stockham felt it was one of the most organized and successful parades in many years. 78 student life Fireworks proclaim Raylene Urena new queen Votes for Homecoming Queen were cast after a large list of nominees, sponsored by various clubs was narrowed down to ten can- didates. An assembly was held and candidates were escorted around the gym floor so the student body could get a look at their favorites. For those who wished to elect a queen, they went to the student council room where voting booths were set up. The winner was kept secret from the student body until halftime of the football game. The atmosphere was high because no one was definite about who the winner might be. Candidates and their fathers appeared before the crowd dressed appropriately for the oc- ca sion. Second runner up was an- nounced — Heather Shulte; first runner up — Felecia Dodson . . . and the winner of San Gorgonio High School ' s 1982 Homecoming Queen honors went to Raylene Urena. Everything was so confused. Everybody hugged me. They were telling me, ' Raylene, look at your name, look up, ' I didn ' t know what was going on. Her honor was celebrated by fireworks and her name lit up on the sidelines. This event was one that will be treasured by the candidates. Each will remember how exciting and how frightening it was to walk down the red carpeted isle, on the fifty-yard line, all dressed up, in front of a large crowd. 80 student life Left: Surprise is apparent on Raylene (Jrena ' s face as she exclaims, Daddy.

Led by Head Kim Hayes and Co-Head Cindy Hammond, they not only cheered at the games, but they were also involved in competitions. The squad placed first in the annual Inland Center competition against San Bernardino and Cajon High Schools. They were also in- volved in competitions sponsored by Hubbard and the United Spirit Association. They attended the Pepperdine USA camp of champs over the summer. The other members of the squad included Kelly Aquino, Cindy Sanders, Kim Miller, Rhonda Sims, and Valerie Sainz. The closure of Pacific will add new members to the squad. Next year there is going to be much competition, said Kelly Aquino, but it will be fun. Eight highly talented girls made up the Varsity Poms squad. They were headed by junior Kathi Wood and junior Amy Thayer was co-head. Varsity had a very exciting year. Aside from cheering at the Spartan athletic activities, they also went to camp. They attended the USA Camp of Champs at Pepperdine University in Malibu. They learned dance routines, chants, and game action cheers. They placed first in camp competitions. Co-head cheerleader Amy Thayer commented, Camp is very demanding, but provides lots of good ideas and experience for the upcoming year. The girls on varsity poms participated in competitions as well as camps. They competed in Arroyo State Com- petitions and placed first. They won the sweepstakes trophy and they won the honored spirit stick twice. Crystal Silas, Class of ' 85 Si M t Top: Cheering from the stands are the varsity cheerleaders.

First, the cheerleaders attended a camp at Pepperdine University in Malibu. Freshmen cheers received a ribbon for a home cheer, a cheer that was made up at San G and performed at Pepperdine, and JV cheers received two outstandings and one excellent ribbon for their home cheer. JV cheerleader Debi Mitchell said, It was a good experience, but a lot of work and responsibility. They also competed and cheered at the Huntington Beach Festival on January 21, where the freshman cheers received a trophy for second place out of 17, and the JV cheers received a trophy for fifth place out of 23. Head freshman cheerleader Kel- ly Cooper commented, It was fun. We got to go to different places and it was fun to meet all the cheerleaders, football and basketball players. Freshman cheerleader Michelle Vas- quez said, It was a successful year thanks to Ms. Carman who was very helpful in organizing us at the beginning of the year. The 1982-83 San Gorgonio varsity flags were busy competing in competitions throughout Southern California. Just to name a few, the varsity flags went to Hun- tington Beach High School in January, where they placed first out of fourteen in flag competition, and to Hubbard ' s Cheerleading Camp where they won a trophy for first place in spirit. When it came to practicing for competi- tions, the girls practiced four or five days a week for two hours each day. When not in competition, the girls maintained their skills by practicing at least two to three days a week. Most of the girls said they had a suc- cessful and exciting year. Member Lori Rynn said, This year has been the best year so far. We really worked hard and earned a good reputation not only in San Bernardino, but at other high schools as well. Ms. Carman was the varsity flags ad- viser. The captain of the flags was Margie Robles. The co-captain was Lori Rynn.

This was a special day for San Gorgonio students because it gave the many clubs on campus a chance to earn some highly needed funds. Some of the clubs that participated in ICC Day were: VICA, FFA, Alive Club, Jokers, and the freshmen class. Although this past year wasn ' t a great success for the clubs, the students and teachers really enjoyed themselves. There were many booths that were set up for business. The Alive Club had a wet sponge toss, which drench- ed almost everyone around the booth. The Jokers dressed up in at- tractive costumes and set up a bake sale. They sold cookies, cupcakes, and other sweet tasting snacks. The French Club sold whipped cream pies, while FFA had a plant sale. The wild and crazy Freshmen Class had a scale squeezing contest in which the contestant had a chance to test his or hers strength. Last but not least, the VICA Club had a car bash which gave contestants a chance to demolish a red car with a sledge hammer. Incidentally, Bill Cezeski broke a sledge hammer in half. All the activities and the sunny blue skies made this day fun and spirited for all. Many students expressed their opi- nions on how successful ICC Day was. Susik Lee said, It was suc- cessful, but not as successful as the previous year. Cathy Regal commented, ICC Day was successful for all who par- ticipated, but it would have been more fun if more clubs had set up booths. Jeff Robinson, class of ' 84 86 student life Left: Boom!

The marching band was a performance group which provided entertaining music dur- ing football and basketball games. During the football season, the band participated in home games by performing in a pre-game perfor- mance of The Star Spangled Banner and a half-time show in which the band marched to the music Conquest, Los Diablos, The Win- ners Circle. You ' ll Never Walk Alone, and the percussion interlude of Old MacDonald Had a Drumline. In November the band was invited to perform at one of San Bernardino Valley College ' s football games. The band also participated in parades — in the Homecoming parade, and San Bernardino High School ' s Centennial parade. In December, the band was invited to march throughout Magic Mountain and afterwards took advantage of the park ' s facilities. Directed by Mr. Doug Emerson, the band practiced their marching in the morning dur ing first period while new music was sightread during fourth period in the bandroom. The marching was practiced on the football field and on Arden Avenue, close to the tennis courts. Although the band members worked hard to reach their potential of marching abilities, most of them agreed that being in the band was a fun and a worthwhile experience. Band gave them the opportunity to facilitate their musical ability and be exposed to other musi- cians from whom they could learn more skills. Most of all, being in band offered the oppor tunities of traveling and meeting many in teresting people.

The jazz and concert bands were no exception to this tradition of ex- cellence. Led by their director and conduc tor, Mr. Emerson, they both had a very good year. The jazz band consisted of approximately 20 skilled members. They practiced zero period and after school. The band played swing, Latin, rock, and blues. Besides prac- ticing on campus, the band traveled to other performances. The jazz band enjoyed the clinic at Mt. San Antonio college on January. It is always a good experience to attend these clinics, said David Verkest, trumpet player. The concert band had also been an exam- ple of excellence for San G. It had approx- imately 50 musicians. The concert band did a good job in the Southern California District Festival on April 1. Mr. Emerson, band director, taught music for 33 years, and was looking forward to his retirement in June. I ' m going to get in- volved in music. I ' m going to play more, and do some judging in the music field, com- mented Mr. Emerson.

OdY Cl OWQ We party hardy at San G High! Come on all you Spartan fans, get on your feet and clap your hands! These were a few cheers that could be heard at San Gorgonio ' s football and basketball games. Participating in the excitement was near ly San G ' s entire student body, moms, dads, brothers, and sisters of the players, and loyal Spartan fans. All came from miles around to route San G ' s team to V V l-V-1-CT-O-R-Y! Along with the cheerleaders, there was also the Pep band, and the not to be forgotten, Frank Havernann and his famous basketball cheer, all of whom attended games to promote spirit in the crowd. Yeah! Rah! Expressions such as these could be heard spontaneously at either a football game when a first-down or a spectacular catch was made; also during a basketball game when there was a foul called on the other team or when the Spartans scored. Contrary to yeahs and rahs were Boos and Hisses. These usually oc- curred when the referees made unfair calls. There were also occasional times when the crowd rebelled against the opponent ' s crowd, or their team members, or even their coaches ' actions.

Students who enrolled in Mrs. Marilyn Sabens ' sixth period journalism class were given the op portunity to work on The Oracle, also Members of this class learned new styles of writing, how to interview, and how to lay out the paper. Both old and new Oracle staff reporters worked on newspaper layouts. Each month, they went to Hogar Publishing Company to lay out the paper. Stories were typed, waxed and arranged, headlines made, and ads designed. Although there was no actual editor in-chief for The Oracle, Cheryl Provence and Debbie Stein ; the editors of the four types of pages, feature, sports, and editorial. Returning members included Diana Manzano, Marie Randolph, and Ef fie Vassiliou. Those who were new to The Oracle and wrote regularly for it were Linda Hanlon, Pat ty Muga, and Kathi Quiroz. James Curran, a freshman, supplied a great deal of sports articles He earned the title of sports contributor for his efforts. Regular features of the newspaper included Haley ' s Comments, teacher spotlights, and senior an nouncements regarding special achievements, scholar- ship and testing information, and graduation plans. Often, a sports player was highlighted in the monthly issue of The Oracle. Probably some of the most in- teresting stories appeared on the editorial or opinions page. Students were urged to write in their viewpoints on any subject they felt strongly towards.

Miss Wyss was the adviser for the 1983 Ballet Folklorico group. This organization consisted of both female and male students at San Gorgonio with a Spanish heritage. Only those who were able to maintain their grade point averages and learn the dances were permitted to perform. Dressed in brightly colored outfits, the Ballet Folklorico per- formed at assemblies and the annual Spring Fling. Accompanied by music, the dancers impressed their audiences with numbers such as La Negra, Nopalitos, and La Revolcada. The Spring Fling was a show put on by the drill team, tall flags, and color guard. Members of the Folklorico group joined in this festivity by performing between acts by the drill team. Their dances added a new aspect to the Spring Fling. Cheryl Provence, class of 83 student life 99 Top: First runner-up, Valerie Sainz, is escorted by her father during the Homecoming exercises.

Michelle Allen was crowned Sophomore Duchess. She was escorted by her father Mr. Robert Allen. She com- mented, I was very honored and sur- prised to be chosen Sophomore Duchess. Michelle was a member of both the Fashion Club and BSCI. It was a great surprise to her to have been picked Sophomore Duchess, since she had on- ly been attending San Gorgonio for about one quarter. Before this she was attending Eisenhower. From the Basketball Homecoming nomination preliminaries, three freshmen girls were chosen as can- didates for Freshman Sweetheart: Audra Dodson, Renee Johnson, and Renee Martinez. On the night of the Homecoming game, Audra Dodson was crowned the 1983 Basketball Homecoming Sweetheart. Upon the an- nouncement of the winner, Audra com- mented, I was very happy, excited, shocked, and real surprised to hear my name. Audra was especially happy since it was all in the family; her older sister, senior Felecia Dodson, was crowned Queen, and like many of the other can- didates, Audra ' s brother Terrell escorted Audra at the assembly and also at the halftime ceremony. Audra was an active student at San G, playing the flute in the marching and concert bands, and being a member of the Sophisticated Ladies fashion club.

There was a large amount of homework and studying to do before that final diploma was issued. The majority of students found the time both to enjoy their high school years and yet ensured themselves a secure future by going to class and learning. The students who came to high school with the attitude that they were going to have a good time and not be bothered with home work and going to classes were truly the unfor tunate ones When it came time to graduate, there was the bitter shock that they were be ing left behind. There was so much more to school then just seeing how many friends one made. There was the late nights of studying for the big test, the hours and hours of homework that never seemed would be finished, and all those days when one went hungry in order to finish a forgotten assignment at lunchtime. Yes, indeed, it was certainly not all fun and games But there was no greater feeling in the world than that moment when the graduate ' s name was called and that diploma was finally in his hands. At the moment, the student knew that all the sleepless nights and all the missed lunches were worth it. The whole future lies ahead and everyone takes some great memories with them. But most important is the secure feeling that the knowledge they have obtained will help them reach their future goals.

The 1982 Powderpuff foot- ball game, held on December 15 at 7:00 p.m was just like any game played by the pros. The annual gome played between the senior and junior girls finished at 8:20 p.m., cut to an hour by officials, with a score of 8-6, seniors. The chance to put on the game shirts and get tough on the field came only after two weeks of strenuous practice. The teams were coached by varsity football players. The coaches for the seniors were Mike Sylvester, Perry Amador. Mark Miyashiro, Jeff Qu Chris DeFonce, and Robert Prince. J coaches included Paul Jefferson. Dennis Allen, Jeff Lewis, Donald Ward, and Jeff Nishkian. It was fun working with the girls, and I hope they enjoyed it as much as I did. Next year they ' ll do more running, ' ' stated Coach Jefferson. Trying to teach girls simple plays was not as simple as it seemed. Mass confusion hit the huddle — Do 1 go left? What ' s a forty nine flip? By game night everyone was raring to go. Enthusiasm was high and the rivalry was intense. Junior Cathy Haubner said, The bruises will be well remembered. It was worth it though. Above right: Junior coach, Paul Jefferson, goes over a play Some of the moves are reviewed even during the game, due to a short, two-week practice period.

Up Where We Belong was the theme of the 1983 juniorsenior prom. The song by Joe Cocker and theme song of the movie An Officer and a Gentleman The junior class worked hard throughout the year to raise funds to sponsor the gala event. They held car washes, soid Christmas ornaments, had candy sales, organized the powderpuff game, and sold prom tickets The prom committee was headed by Richard Althouse. along with the help of Amy Thayer. Lisa Ross, and Linda Whiteside. The advisers were Mrs. DeWalle, Mr. Hedrick. ana Mr. Kaletka The hard work of the junior class paid off. for the night was spectacular. Most of the arrangements were handled by the Red i San G ' s colors. After the the inn in Ont th,y entered and heard the group, Rollercoaster, playing songs from the top forty chart. The band was chosen in September at a band seminar held at (l.S.C. Hors d ' oeuvre were served and beverages could be pur chased. Throughout the evening, couples had their pic tures taken by Delmar Studio. Mugs and brandy snifters inscribed with the theme, were given to remind couples of this special event Also stick pens with the number 83 were given to the seniors as their rememberance.

Even before school itarted. the junior class officers prepared for the vi M candy sale which began on the first day of ichool. Soon after the sale, on the 25th of September, the juniors put forth extra effort by laving a car wash. Everyone cooperated, did jood work, and we raised a lot of money for the :lass, ' said Jeff Lewis, who helped with the car vash along with Laura Powers, Scott Maddi, and iecky Carranza. Spirit was evident as the juniors participated in he Homecoming Carnival by renting a Las Vegas tame booth. The juniors put in many hours man- ling the booth in which players pitched a baseball i diamond shaped hole. It was fun working at he booth because different people came up to ■lay, thought Joe Wilshire. Although there were plenty of fundraisers for he prom it was not enough. A representative rom the Ornament Sales Company introduced he sale procedures at a special junior class neeting in the cafeteria during period three hose who wanted to sell ornaments had one ' eek to do so. Their efforts helped to add two undred dollars to the junior account. Probably the most fun money raiser was the jniorsenior Powderpuff game which was on lecember 15. Money from the ticket sales at the ate went towards the juniors. Some junior girls ' ho participated in the game. Yolie Aleman, eslie Nickerson, Chris Pannage, Stephanie Nash, nd Cindy Hammond, all agreed that the game rovided many memories. Aside from making a profit, the junior class repared academically by taking the PSAT in Oc )ber. It took approximately three hours to com- lete the test and many juniors felt it was difficult. - he PSAT involved testing of two areas: English id math. English category was broken down into subdivisions: grammar, comprehension, and imposition. Julie Hunter commented, The SAT was good practice for taking the SAT in Besides being outstanding in academics, many juniors held positions of leadership. Some were elected to class officers, some to student council, and others to club presidencies. The junior class officers were: Richie Althouse, junior president: Amy Thayer, junior vice president: Lisa Ross, junior secretary: Linda Whiteside, junior treasurer. A large percentage of student council was made up of juniors. Some juniors in student coun- cil were Doreen Amador, Karin Head, Stephanie Nord, Kathy Wood, Dawn Kruger, Cheryl Opper man, Laura Dierking, Julie Hunter, Cindy Ham mond, Lisa Hysong, Laura Powers, Richie Althouse, Amy Thayer, and Kelly McCollum. Stu dent council met every school day during fourth period to discuss problems and plan activities for the student body. Clubs were an important part of student ac- tivities, and most were led by juniors. Laura Dierk- ing, was president of KD ' s, Natasha Sherwood led the German Club, Martha Flores was president of the French Club and Yolanda Ledezma was presi- dent of CSF. Many students had the chance to play a varsity sport in their junior year. Juniors made a major contribution to various athletic teams on campus. Wade Vickery, James De Bow, and Paul Jefferson were outstanding in football, while Jim Burritt, and Brian Reinert helped San G ' s basketball team to many victories. Juniors involved in soccer were Bobby Beeman, Scott Howes, Chuck Campbell, Brian Tully, Mitch Gunn, Mike Apodoca, Barry Molton. Bruce Holman, David Asuna, and Phillip Najar, excelled in baseball. Joe Cole and Keith Adams were a strong part of water polo and boys swimming. Junior girls were also a big part of varsity sports.

Junior class advisers: Mr After a hard fought campaign, the junior class of- ficers for the year 1982-83 were announced on the day of the voting assembly in June, but not before all the campaign posters and stickers were taken down from the school walls. Who did the unpredictable juniors choose as their president? Richie Althouse. The other officers were: Amy Thayer — Vice Presi- dent; Lisa Ross — Secretary; and Linda Whiteside — Treasurer. The four officers had been hard at work ever since to make the junior class a success. My plans are to put on the best prom at San G. and help the class of ' 84 become more spirited, said Richie Althouse. Being the president was hard work but Ritchie was glad to have his position because the junior class is most spirited and is most respon sive to our need for help. Why would anyone want to be a class treasurer, the job requiring the most responsibility from a stu- dent? Treasurer Linda Whiteside ran for the office simply because, I enjoyed my job as sophomore treasurer and I thought I could handle it well. Linda was especially happy that most of the money making projects had turned out so well for the juniors. The junior class had three advisers: Mrs. DeWalle, Mr. Hedrick, and Mr. Kaletka. Each supported the junior class by sitting in on meetings and helping with fundraisers. As for the junior student body, they had mixed feel- ings about how well the class officers were doing their jobs. I think the junior officers have a lot of potential to be a great leadership, but I haven ' t seen any revenue that would benefit us as a whole. Just think what we ' ll accomplish as seniors if we could get it together and use this year as a learning tool, agreed Jubel O ' Bien, Paul Fuller, and Laura Dierking. Julie Feistner and Eva Acuna both commented, We never hear what they ' re doing. On the other hand, Colleen Morris and Mitch Gunn both agreed the of- ficers were doing a fairly good job. oat ©A olanda Aceman Leticia Adame Lydia Alexander Doreen Amador Mike Apodaca ristine Acreman Keith Adams Richard Althouse Tommy Anderson Kelly Aquino Elise Acuna Hala Ajalet Manuel Alvarado Cipriano Andrada Terri Arriola Eva Acuna Yolanda Aleman Leticia Alvarez Brenda Annear Craig Asbury 112 juniors Stacy Ashford Elaine Baltierra Theresa Barmettler Gina Becerril Gloria Augustine Danny Banes Douglas Barno Denise Bedard Mark Baird Lisa Barajas Pamela Bartlett Robert Beeman Above: Michelle Kiger and Michelle LeVine listen attentively while future plans are discussed at a junior class meeting Below left: During a pep assembly, president Richie Althouse participates in a class competition in which the first person down the ladder gets a pie in the face. Southpaws have their rights, too §ft Backwards? No! Unique? Yes! That ' s the word that described the not so many left-handed students at San Gorgonio. Southpaws on cam- pus could be noticed by the constant ink smears on the pinky of their left hands. This occurred when rubbing the hand over fresh ink. They could also be noticed by the limpness of their left arms. The reason for this was because all of the classroom desks were made for right-handed people. The students looked as though they had no control because their arms hung on the left side flopp- ing all over. Other inconveniences included can openers, ice cream scoops, scissors, spiral and looseleaf notebooks, sports gloves, watches, stringed instruments, and don ' t forget right handed teachers to teach you right? Wrong, because you ' re left handed. Friday the 13th was recently declared a holiday for left handers. This was because left had always been associated with evil, witchcraft, and superstition. Theories, however, associated lefthandedness with the dominance of the right side of the brain, which was believed to govern an in- dividual ' s creative, intuitive func- tions, as opposed to those of a more logical, rational nature. Famous peo- ple such as Robert Redford, Paul Mc- Cartney, Marilyn Monroe, Peter Fon- da, Leonardo de Vinci, Michelangelo, Joan of Arc, Ben Franklin, and the acclaimed new star, E.T., the Extra Terrestrial, were all left handed. Some of San G ' s junior southpaws included Manuel Alvarado, Becky Carranza, Luis Carrillo, Kathy Lockley, Brian Tully, and Allyson Woolcott. They all agreed on equal lefts. ?sdrawkcab erew swaphtuos dias reve ohw Gina Cooper, class of ' 84 Robert Brooks Beth Brubaker Jim Burritt Cindy Brown Wilson Brue MikeBuskirk Elpidio Brown Jerry Bryant Stephanie Cabral Denise Brownen Brent Burley Chuck Cambell Valerie Campero Christina Carranza Lucille Campo Rebecca Carranza Denise Carey Lori Carrillo Luis Carrillo Valerie Carrillo Richard Carriou Above: Lefthander Kathy Lockley works on annual layouts while conversing with visiting stu- dent Sumika Teriyama, who is from Japan. 114 juniors Suzi Chapin Maria Chiprez F.lodie Clark Carolyn Kerry Cooke Robin Chapman David Clark Dawnie Cleveland Cofrancesco Joe Cole Qina Cooper A -- ■ Greg Cooper Jennifer Craig Saul Correa Elizabeth Cravens Ernest Cox Alvin Crismundo w es a James Cronan Russel Daniels Edward Crosby Valencia Dawson William Culbertson James DeBow Ronnie DeCarmo Julie Diaz Roy Ditto Willie Dee Val Diaz Terrell Dodson Richard DeGraw Laura Dierking Jennifer Downs Sean Dennis Cindy Dieterich Lisa Ducca Top: Kris Fry performs a routine to Working for the Weekend at the Homecoming assembly.

Music is her life Showcase After practicing with the San Gorgonio Showgroup, one could find junior Terri Beeman at the house of Ann Moore, a Bulgarian voice teacher. Terri took two, two- hour lessons per week to enhance her singing ability. Terri had been singing in choirs since elementary school. It wasn ' t until her sophomore year in high school that she and her parents decided that she should start taking private lessons. Ann Moore helped Terri to nuture her voice slowly, and to allow Terri to develop her own style. Miss Moore was very adamant about not allowing Terri to tryout for local musicals. She felt that this would be damaging to a pupil ' s voice since most of these musicals didn ' t care about the individual ' s needs. Terri felt that it was very important to move slowly and build her voice gradually. With the help of her singing teacher, Terri was properly learning the art of singing. Sandra Dumas Kerrie Dyer Atrina Ellerbe Rochana Mike Eaton Nickie Elson Dunmeyer Shelley Eaion Juan Espinoza Troy Durham There was much more to Terri ' s lessons than just singing. Ann Moore required Terri and her other pupils to write music theories. This was so Terri could understand and appreciate the composer of the music she sang. The long hours of practicing really paid off for Terri in the spring of her sophomore year. She competed and won the Bach Festival. Terri was the youngest contestant in her group, so she really felt this quite an accomplishment. The winning of the Bach Festival put Terri into the regionals, which were a bitter disap- pointment for her. She didn ' t place in this competition. She said she had fun and that it was a great learning experience. Terri ' s plans for the future have not been entirely planned. She would like to attend Redlands University and attain a minor degree in music. Her greatest goal is to become an opera singer, but would be quite content if someday she could teach voice.

After three months of vacation, students finally got to see all of their friends. Yet there was a sort of blank face on the students. Perhaps they were in awe because they couldn ' t believe they only had two years of high school left; or even a better excuse, for some weren ' t used to getting up before 1 1 :00. Following tradition, registration was held in the cafeteria and went smoothly compared to previous years. Lines weren ' t too long, so it didn ' t take much time for people to get in and out of line and back home to bed. After a summer of swimming, baseball, going to the beach, holding part-time jobs, and let us not forget sleeping in late, students looked forward to getting back, even though it meant not as much rest and relaxation, as Allyson Woolcott commented, I had a great summer and I ' m excited about school, but it ' s hard getting back into the hassle. If not the prospect of daily homework, students looked for- ward also to the many extracurricular activities at school and seeing their friends every day. Karen Penny, an active student at San G. said, I ' m glad to see all my friends and get back into clubs and activities. Brenda Snodgrass, who was hardly ever seen without her other half, Jane Singer, said, Without each other we would be completely lost in Chemistry. However, the most anticipated aspect of returning to good ole San G for the class of ' 84 was probably that they would be returning as juniors. Before we became juniors we thought being a member of that class would be a privilige because we ' d be con- sidered upperclassmen. Now that we ' re juniors, we realize we have always been the best because we ' re the class of ' 84! observed junior Kelly Aquino.

Besides cheerleading, Kathy Wood ap plied her dancing talent to teaching other young dancers at the Looking Glass Studio. Students from ages four to eighteen re ceived lessons from Kathy, who had had seven years of dance lessons. After school time on Mondays, Thursdays, and Satur- days was dedicated to teaching. Prior to receiving the job of teaching, Kathy had demonstrated and substituted for about one year at the studio. I like teaching a lot, stated Kathy, who has been teaching for more than a year now. Kathy was enrolled in dance classes by her mother, at age six to develop poise and posture, but quit soon after. At age nine, she resumed dancing and has continued to do so. With hard work and lessons, Kathy has become a talented jazz, ballet, and tap dancer. Because of her experience as a dancer, Kathy has been in many musical shows con- nected with Junior University and the Civic Light Opera. She has played a wide range of characters in J.U., from a lost boy in Huck Finn to Linda in the Sleeping Beauty. For CLO, Kathy played one of the three town girls in Showboat. Perhaps one of Kathy ' s most memorable roles was that of Clara in the nutcracker at the Inland Empire in 1976. Her role was the start of a series of roles in the Nutcracker for the next six years. Peter Rabbit followed the Nutcracker, and for two years Kathy played Tom Thumb. In addition to the many musicals Kathy participated in, she has done three dance concerts of jazz, ballet, at the Inland Empire, and two fashion shows for Harris ' . After graduating from high school, Kathy plans to audition for more professional shows in Los Angeles. She has no dreams of becoming a star and if she does make it, I will succeed with my own potential. ' ' Despite her tremendous dancing skills, Kathy hopes to form a career in journalism. Any type of work in the field of Oral Com munication interests her. She will continue to perform if she has the time. Being very busy outside of school ex tracurricular activities, Kathy still found time to show school spirit as a varsity poms cheerleader. She is also a memberat large for student council. 1 20 juniors : $t$0 9 Top right: Bob Beeman ' s one complaint is that lunchtime is too Michelle Kinsella Genette Kragness Linda Kwon Tracy Lanier Stephanie Layne short to socialize, and review homework Above: A common Dorothy Kirby Dawn Kruger Elizabeth Lamb Fletcher Laukka Huy Le sight is picnic tables strewn with backpacks, purses, and books, Guy Knight Kathy Kubitza Shonna Lambirth Donna Lawrence Thien Le Showcase Many students who attend San Gorgonio have come from foreign coun- tries to live In the United States. One such student is Susik Lee. a junior, wno moved with his family to the United States from Seoul, the capital of Korea. Susik and his family came to the United States because they wanted to live a better life and get a better education. Susik said, The students of Korea attend school six days a week I think this is hard on peo pie because you only have a one-day weekend. But you learn much more than you do in the United States. When Susik came to the United States, he attended Cole Elementary School and Serrano Junior High School. He received good grades but he thought he could have done better. One major problem he encountered was learning the English language. It was a difficult task for him and his family to learn fvnglish, but they all did well. Today, Susik is striving to get some sort of scholarship to continue his education. Susik received the most valuable player award during the 1981-82 tennis season What an accomplishment! He said, Tennis is by far my favorite sport. I love to play the game and I also enjoy watching professionals play His dedication to the sport is evident in the finances involved. You can spend one-hundred dollars on a well-made racket. I paid forty dollars for mine. Susik also has a great desire to become an engineer some day. So, in preparation for this, he is taking his third year of drafting which is very essential in becoming an engineer He plans to attend Massachusetts In- stitute of Technology (MIT.) or California School of Technology (Cal. Tech.). He hopes to graduate from one of these schools with a B.A. degree in engineering. Jeff Robinson, class of 84 Student leads better life at San G.

Andrea Mathis Kelly McCollom Melanie Meracos Ornament sale adds to junior budget af Christmas came early to San G. as the juniors began sell- ing Christmas ornaments in early November. Many en- thusiastic juniors diligently sold ornaments to raise money for their class. The profits were to help defray the cost of the prom and other junior class projects. The Christmas ornaments were offered in an assortment of four different styles. They ranged in price from $3.75 to $6.95. The orders for the ornaments were taken from Mon- day, November 8, through Monday, November 22. The or- naments were delivered approximately two weeks later. Many juniors telephoned friends or asked around their neighborhood in hopes of making a sale. Prizes were offered as an incentive to sell. A cash prize of $50.00 was awarded to the student who sold the greatest number of ornaments. Anyone who sold thirty units received a $5.00 bonus; for 40 units sold, $10.00; for 50 units sold, $15.00; and for 100 units sold, $50.00 in bonus money. The ornament sale was something new, different, and was fairly successful, said junior president Richie Althouse.

Junior Laura Powers, for example, enjoys acting. She had been acting for ten years. Her first production was at age seven. She was the mother flower in the play, Thumbalina In Twain. I got interested in acting, said Laura, because I like to sing and dance. Laura took dance lessons at Judy Noerr School of Dance for five years. She is taking singing lessons at the present time from E.E. Seidham. During junior high, Laura was in show group, a chorus in which she sang and danced. Laura has performed in many productions. She was in: Thumbalina; Aladdin, A Christmas Carol; The Nutcracker for four years; Sleeping Beauty; The Blue Bird; Peter Rabbit; The Wizard of Oz; Huck Finn; and Pinocchio. Laura has per- formed for many theaters and schools such as Junior University, California Schools, and The California Theater. Laura was also involved in school activities. She was on varsity poms and a member at large in student council. Laura enjoys acting, singing, and dancing very much, but she doesn ' t want to make it a steady job. Acting is fun, but it is too unstable. One month you could have six jobs and the next month you might not get any, replied Laura.

Get rowdy! Get tough . . .! That ' s what the class of ' 84 did when they finally had their chance to participate in the annual Powderpuff game. The big night for the Junior Senior Powderpuff game was December 15. Many preparations went toward getting ready for the game: prac- ticing, fundraising, and buying the shirts. The junior girls who played went through much exercise and coaching to be in top shape for the game. Even though I didn ' t like the exercises too much, it really helped us tone up for the game, commented junior Effie Vassiliou. Besides practicing daily for three weeks, the junior players and officers spent two days holding a car wash at Wendy ' s on Highland Avenue to raise money for the shirts and pregame dinner at Lampost Pizza. Part of the money raised from the car wash went towards the purchase of the powderpuff t-shirts. The shirts were Spartan blue with black let- tering and design. The junior powderpuff cheerleaders were not to be brush- ed aside. Their enthusiasm and crazy antics all led up to a fun time cheering at the game. Cheerleaders Mitch Gunn and Chairat Pungaew both agreed it was an experience they won ' t easily forget, but would just as easily participate in again in their senior year. Said Chairat, We needed more time for practice, but it was fun. Joe Wilshire, another cheerleader, commented, It was great! It was very embarrassing, but I still had fun. The outcome of the game? The juniors did their best to break the seniors ' traditional victories, but lost 8-6. Stated one of the two quarterback ' s, Becky Carranza, It was a pretty rowdy game. Next year we ' ll win for sure, fairly.

Steve has played the clarinet since fourth grade. I first started playing the clarinet just to get out of class, but it wasn ' t long before I really started get- ting into the music. After having already played the clarinet for four years, Steve decided to try the sax. The saxophone has been Steve ' s main instrument since he was thir- teen. Once I started playing sax, I really liked the sound. During his high school music career, Steve has perfor med in the Mt. Sac, Chaffey College, and Corona music tournaments with the jazz band. Last year, Steve was among those honored at the league regionals with the first place prize. Many other musicians have been instrumental in Steve ' s style of music (jazz). The big band sounds of Rob McConnell and Louie Belson were very in- fluential to Steve. I enjoy the tight ensemble sounds of the big band era. Matt Gatingube ' s bebop style has been Steve ' s biggest influence along with Charlie Parker. Besides playing the clarinet and saxophone, Steve ' s hobbies include bicy- cle riding, collecting comics, continuing teaching himself the piano, and of course listening to KKGO FM, a popular Los Angeles jazz station. I also listen to new wave and punk rock, groups like the Stray Cats and the Go Go ' s. After completing high school, Steve plans to major in music in college. He hopes to attend North Texas State University, Cal-State Northridge o r San Antonio University. I would like to someday form my own quartet or big band as a career.

The radio kept most students com- pany a great deal of their time — while doing homework, driving, working, reading, or just loafing in the student parking lot The juniors were no excep- tion to this syndrome. The kinds of music a radio station played determin- ed whether it would be liked by teens or not. Most sta- tions such as FM KBON, located in Arrowhead, were not familiar to many students. Teens had a variety of stations to listen to. On the FM band Redlands KCAL. 99.9 KOLA, and KROQ were some of the most popular stations among students. AM also had a few stations popular with teens: Los Angeles ' KFI, San Bernardino ' s own KFXM. and KMEN, located right behind San G ' s cam- pus. Reasons for station preference ranged from, I like the type of music they play, to The DJ ' s voice sounds really cute. Brenda Snodgrass. Shonna Lambirth, Barry Molton, and Jane Singer were some juniors who gave KOLA their vote. Some of their favorite songs being Rock This Town by the Stray Cats, Vacation by the GoGo ' s, and Saga ' s On the Loose . Station KUOR was the favorite of junior A. C. Rodgers because it plays the music I like, namely If this World were Mine by Cheryl Lynn and Luther Van Drosn.

Friends of Dwayne ' s were even more shocked to hear the news of their close friend. Steve Spratt, who had known Dwayne since junior high school, stated, I didn ' t believe it; I was really shocked. We were good friends; about the best of friends. He was a good person; he would have gone far. Dwayne Edward Hickman was born in Fort Walton Beach, Florida on Oc- tober 30, 1965. When Dwayne and his family moved to Highland, he attend- ed Cole Elementary School. Serrano Junior High was the next step closer to San G. As a junior, Dwayne had been taking the usual requirement classes along with Auto Shop and Family and Society. Mr. Bianchi, his counselor, evaluated Dwayne as An average student who was interested in getting his diploma. He was a nice guy with a likeable personality — always smiled. Dwayne ' s daily life was typical of that of most teenagers. He had an after-school job as a bagger at the Norton Air Force Base Commissary, and when not working, he could sometimes be seen at a local arcade, working up skill on the deluxe model of Asteroids. Dwayne had also been interested in sports, being a one-time whiz in Little League Baseball, and often played in his spare time. Attending concerts in the San Bernardino and Los Angeles areas was another pastime; Judas Priest and the Scorpians being some of the favorite groups he and his friends had gone to see. For those who knew Dwayne personally, he will always be remembered for the good person that he was. In the words of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Hickman, He fought to survive in his own little way. Although his death brings pain, it was not in vain. We who loved him hope and pray we ' ll be with him again someday. Loved by all, missed by many.

The Spartan teams started picking up the pace during the summer and ear- ly school year with the beginning of practices. They practiced after school for three to four long and hard hours, trying out various positions, learning new and old plays, planning the strategy to be used on their opponents, and getting ready for the upcoming season. It was a lot of hard work, but it was worth it after placing second in CBL, commented Cynthia Perez, a varsity volleyball player. When the season began, most of San G ' s teams got off to a good start. They ranked high in CBL standings and did well in CIF playoffs. Football went to the playoffs for the first time in ten years. During the seasons, players would rush to read the newspaper to see who had won Prep of the Week, and similar awards presented by the county. As the seasons came to an end, the players found out who made the re- quirements for a varsity letter. The ban- quets were planned at different local restaurants, some more formal than others. At the banquets, the coaches named the players who received awards such as M.V.P. (most valuable player) the captain for the following year, the coach ' s award and most improved award. The spirit at San Gorgonio was at a high pace during the 1982 83 year. Students would travel to distant games just to watch their school play. The crowds were enthusiastic and ready to cheer their teams on to victory. Cheerleaders were at every football, basketball, and water polo game cheer ing and standing behind their team one hundred percent. Many people didn ' t get formal credit for the many victories of the teams. Coaches, stat people, and managers spent many hours getting the teams ready on and off the field or court, and helping the teams during the games. All combined to put San G sports on a fast pace to the winner ' s circle. editor: Debt Mitchell section assistants: Debbie Dowell Danny Quiggle Sports make media headlines From the forming of a new football league to rumors of football scandals, from Wayne Gretzky ' s popularity to the World Cup ' s hatred by America, it has been anything but dull in professional sports in 1982-83. March 1982 — After a strike filled year, baseball got down to business with spring training. The defending world champion Los Angeles Dodgers were without Fernan- do Valenzuela, a holdout, but he soon came and everything was back to normal again. April — As baseball ' s regular season staited, on came the NHL playoffs, and in stead of the Dodgers Southern California turned to the Kings as they met Edmonton and Wayne Gretzky. To the shock of everyone, the Kings halted the Oilers mighty scoring machine in five games. However, at the end it was the New York Islanders skating off with the Stanley Cup. ,,A 1 ,1 4- May — It was now time for the Los Angeles Lakers to shine, going undefeated in the NBA playoffs until losing 2 of 6 in the finals to win another world championship. August — After a poor start, the Dodgers finally got on track, however, still behind streaking Atlanta by 10 ' 2. Entering Atlanta in a must sweep situa- tion, they fell behind 10-5 in the sixth. Something snapped. The Dodgers blew up, sweeping Atlanta both there and at home to take over first place in 12 days. September — After a summer filled with drug confessions, unions, a Raider lawsuit, and a new league ((JSFL), the NFL went only two games into its season before being stopped by a strike. Ed Garvey was instantly turned into Sunday ' s villain. October — As basketball, hockey, and indoor soccer began, preparations began for the summer Olympiad in Los Angeles in 1984. With smog as a major factor, officials sweated over every possible solution. In St. Louis, Bruce Sutter locked up the Cardinals ' victory in the World Series. December — This was the biggest month yet, as the NFL returned, Bear Bryant retired, and baseball trading began. January 1983 — With the NFL ' s ridiculous playoff setup and the death of Alabama ' s Bear Bryant, January ' s only bright spot was Washington Redskins ' FB John Riggins, powering his way to a Super Bowl crown. February — Rams hire John Robin- son, the headlines blared, Hershel Walker said yes, no, and yes again to the CJSFL ' s New Jersey Generals 16 million dollar con- tract and after 1 1 long years, the Kings defeated the Philadelphia Flyers 5-4. Sporting events on many occasions dominated the news and many of the headlines were the subject of discussion by San G athletes.

When school started, everyone thought that it was time for sports to start . not true. Football, tennis, water polo, and volleyball had started practicing early in the summer. All the long and hard practices paid off for the fall sports teams. Three out of four teams made it to CIF this fall, that ' s not too bad, remarked Mr. Betty, athletic department director. The sport that shocked everyone was football. They had a 4-7 record after losing to Servite in the CIF playoffs. It was the first time that San G football got to go to the playoffs in ten years. Two teams that always seemed to do well during their season were tennis and volleyball. The girls tennis team, along with the volleyball team, placed second in CBL with a record of 11-4 for tennis and 14-6 record for volleyball. Both tennis and volleyball went to CIF. Tennis lost their first match, which knocked them out of the running Volleyball went on to the third game where they lost to Troy. After six of the seven starting varsity players graduated last year, water polo had a slow season. Their team was young and needed to be developed. Next year we are going to do a lot better, said Chad Durham, a future varsity player. Mr. Betty remarked The fall season was very successful. Tennis, football, and volleyball all had an outstanding year. Water polo had a hard name to live up to after last year. They did well but not as as well as wished.

Coaches had it even worse, without the luxury of an exhibition season They had no way of telling how their team would do. Some pleasant surprises came about for the Spartan varsity volleyball squad, which saw themselves keep a strong pace the first half of the season within striking distance of Colton, a long time nemesis and regarded by many as the best in San Bernardino County in volleyball. The best of the best were Tracy Webber and Ruth Ellison, two extremely talented athletes who paired up for many points and were regarded by many to be the deadliest combination in local var sity play by volleyball observers. Well, we ' ve been good friends for a long time, commented Tracy Webber, team captain. Ruth and I have played volleyball together ever since we started at San G. It has become a sort of unity where we know what each other is doing on the court. Of course, as well as these two, the Spartans had other great players. Tina Franklin, another senior, had been known as an excellent stopper on spikes. The girls didn ' t spend all their time on volleyball. Tracy Webber, for instance, enjoyed Softball. She was good enough in fact, to make the varsity Softball team as a freshman. Comments weren ' t long when talking about the JV squad. Mo comment, joked Michelle Niday. But seriously, it takes time before they can be The players agreed that the best two were Michelle and Tracy. However, if one looked close ly at a game they played, it was hard to distinguish one from the other It was a total team effort. On the court, the girls were tough. In CBL play, the Spartan girls lost to Redlands twice, but went on to beat them the third time, which pitted them against Eisenhower and Pacific. After beating both teams, they earned a second place in CBL. CIF playoffs were tougher. Led by Coach Leann Glmer, they successfully beat Troy, then LaHabra. but lost to Magnolia to end their season 14-6. Individual recognition was earned by Joyce Jackson, Ruth Ellison, and Tracy Webber, who made the first team CBL. Michelle Niday joined the second team. Volleyball at San G was strong and a team sport. In football, all the spotlight was on the quarterback and the running back or wide receiver In basketball, it was on the one with the fanciest slam dunk or lay up. One didn ' t have special positions in volleyball and that was what made the sport so different. James Curran, class of 86 OIATCI IT THE CI SS OF 1371 q! J . — is. i ■ H — a L ■ i 20 1 ; 12.

With a school enrollment of over two thousand students, those who par- ticipated in sports were not all on teams. Many students wanted the exer- cise that came from playing a sport but didn ' t want to be held down to practice every day. Racquetball and bowling were two sports which were offered at San Gorgonio that were not as a P.E. class. Racquetball held its class fifth and sixth period, on the racquetball court at San Gorgonio. Bowling was during sixth on Mon days and Wednesdays at Del Rosa Bowl. Sophomore, Richard Collette par- ticipated in bowling. He stated that he bowls because he likes it and no other sport interested him as much. The bowling team was divided up in- to many smaller teams. During the semester, the teams played each other. The last two weeks of each semester they played teams from Pacific High School. Racquetball was just a class. They played other people in their classes and learned the correct rules of the game. Paul Brubaker explained, I play rac- quetball because it ' s an awesome sport, and I ' m not good at many other sports.

The starting seven players were Keith Adams, Charles Sean, Frank Havemann, Kevin Leibrum, Steve Little, Joe Cole, and Andy Sheats. The outstanding player for the varsity water polo was Frank Havemann, who received the MVP award and white letter at the banquet held at the Mediterranean. He was said to be one of the best players in the history of San G. water polo. Frank played polo for all four years and played three years as varsity. He made approximately eighty goals, just this season. The most exciting game was against Pacific. After losing to them 10-12 the first game, it was very important to win the se- cond time. The score was close and the players were pressured but they came through to win, 1 1-10. The overall season record was 8-10, but the team looks for- ward to a strong season next year, as many players are returning.

The tennis team boasted a superb year by ending the season with a record of eleven wins and four losses Before regular season play. San Qorgonio had four practice games against Aquinas, Victor Valley, Chaffey. and Cajon The outcome was two wins and two losses, which helped the team prepare for a tough but victorious season. The season commenced with a 2 1 win over Colton San Gorgonio shut out Pacific in three games and played against Eisenhower and Fontana where they also added to the list of shut outs.

During Hell Week we ran, exercised, ran, lifted weights, ran, and ran some more, remarked John Flores, one of the starting linemen on the JV team. Practices started at 8:00 and lasted until 10:00. At 500, when it was a bit cooler, they went back and prac- ticed until 7:00. The Spartans got the season off to a good start with a victory over Palm Springs 14 7. The next three games didn ' t go as well, losing all three against Victor Valley, Apple Valley, and Cajon. The San Bernardino game wasn ' t even a game, commented Flores. The Spartans defeated the Cardinals 30 7. The Eisenhower game was said to be the best played game of the season Zack Flores blocked a punt and ran for thirty yards for the first defensive touchdown. The Spartans, not letting the Eagles score, won 180. The most exciting game was against Redlands, said Brian Wiss, the starting quarterback. After being down 21-0 at the end of the third quarter, the Spartans came back 19-21. We didn ' t win but at least we didn ' t get skunked, remarked Wiss. The game against tiie Spartans ' rivals, the Pirates, chalked up another victory for San Gorgonio. After the forfeit of Fontana, the San Gorgonio record was 5-5, 2-3 inCBL. We didn ' t do as well as we expected. I feel we could have done better if we were more serious at practice and more of a united team, commented Larry Thomas. Our coaching is good, all we have to work on is our attitudes. Top: Mark Ally attempts the extra point kick against the Redland ' s Terriers.

Such a problem was faced by James DeBow The mainstay of San Gorgonio ' s offensive unit had been denied the honor twice. The most crushing blow, however, was after the San Bernardino victory 30-6, when he ran on a veer play down the left sideline for a 97 yard touchdown, a San Gorgonio record. It was an 18 veer, recalled DeBow. I was just thinking to get an opening in the backfield and get it (a big gain) quick. Despite being blackballed twice, the junior kept getting better, winding up the season as the fifth best in the county. Veer plays suited the running backs, especially DeBow with his speed, size, and the brains to know when to accelerate, pivot, etc. This gave him the respect of teammates, opponents, and coaches. James (DeBcw) has excellent moves. said Mike Syvester. He can turn a bad play into a good one. Yes. of course it hurt that he couldn ' t be prep of the week. It would have complemented his 1.000 yard plus year. But there ' s always basketball and next football season when hell be trying again.

The best noted about the Spartans was their awesome running game, highlighted by Junior James DeBow and Sophomore Durrell Jones Jones had moves that were rarely seen in sophomores, while DeBow had been con- sistently one of the county ' s best rushers. Coach Dave Duncanson combined this with a new of fensive line and a stingy run defense to hopefully pro duce a winner in the run-happy CBL. The Spartans started out with a 1-2 record before Dun canson pulled senior Mike Sylvester from quarterback. Sylvester didn ' t fit to a running offense as well as a pass- Wade Vickery was placed in his position and started against Cajon. It was a close game where Cajon put it out l fourth quarter touchdown, 2719. Their non-league record ended at 2-3. The Spar began the CBL against the defending CBL champs in Col- ton. As the first quarter ended in 14-14, it seemed they headed for a tight match. Unfortunately, Colton held San G to only those 14 points and they kept going. The Homecoming game was one to remember San G ' s defense clamped down on O ' Keese Wilcots while James DeBow went on fire. However, the biggest moment of the game 3rd and goal Eisenhower when WR DB John McPhei had his 6th and 7th vert ebrae crushed. were big. Both sides scored touchdowns but Ike ' s inability to convert cost them the After losing at home to Redlands, San G traveled to Pacific to face the Pirates in their last varsity home game. On their second possession, Pacific marched down for their only score of the game Both offenses were silent until the fourth quarter when San Gorgonio scored their first touchdown. San G was behind 7-6 with less than six minutes to go. San G had to hold the Pirates or lose their 3rd game in four The defense held, but there was only 3:56 left to go Surprisingly, the Pirates defense just melted as San G brought it down inside the 5. The Spartans were stopped cold until 3rd down, where DeBow went wide to the left and got San G ' s second touchdown with :38 seconds left. The conversion missed but it didn ' t matter. The season concluded at home against Fontana with the Spartans in a who cares, we ' re in the playoffs situation. This was because Colton was sure to beat Redlands. So San G kicked back and Fohi took it to the Spartans. 42-0, an extremely disappointing loss, but none the less, the Spartans made it to the playoffs for the first San Gorgonio ventured into Las Palmas for a meeting with the tenth ranked high school team in the nation, the Servite Friars. Truthfully, it wasn ' t much of a match. After an opening drive highlighted by a 47 yard touchdown run by QB Wade Vickery, Servite took com- mand and defeated the Spartans 37-7.

Most people thought boys ' basketball was the only sport played during the winter months. But they were wrong. There was also girls varsity and junior varsity basketball, varsity and junior varsity wrestling and varsity and junior varsity soccer. Starting out the winter months strongly was the boys ' varsity basketball team. They took first place at the Corona Tournament. Following that victory, they went on to take first place at the Kiwanis Tournament and third place at the Moreno Valley Tournament. Both varsity and junior varsity soccer teams had a very good season. Considering that the varsity team was trying to reconstruct themselves from loss of several seniors last year. The wrestling teams came on strong, but they also had a loss of players following the 1982 graduation. Girls sports also had a favorable season, especially the girls ' junior varsity basketball team. On the court, they took on opponents and beat them easily by twen- ty points. Varsity basketball had lost many girls and they were looking for the right team combination to regain past titles. So, the winter months were a good season for arts; they all did well. San G wrestling team young but tough Wrestling was a sport which took a total commitment and a sport that took 100% effort or nothing at all Even if only a few practices were missed a week, it could be the difference between winning and losing. The San Gorgonio Wrestling team had a tough season. I feel that we are doing quite well considering the youth of our team. We are mostly sophomores and freshmen and we are still doing better than average, commented Coach Jim Hall, head coach of the Spartan wrestling squad. The varsity and junior varsity tling teams practiced every day after school for two hours. They worked on new takedown and escape drills and prac- ticed wrestling against team members of their own weight. The hardest teams to beat this year had to be Fontana and Pacific, admitted Zack Flores. The team captains were Jack Negrete and Zack Flores. Both of them, along with Mike Houser, were said to be the top wrestlers. Mike made the CIF playoffs, and Reggi Turner, junior; Jack Flores, sophomore; Idrisa Sammah, sophomore; Travis Greene, senior; Chris Saucedo, senior; and William Pettis, senior were chosen as alternates. Coach Hall an- Right: After cradling the Redlands ' opponent, Tony Maust pins him for a victory.

They work hard and learn quickly. They never complain about the work load. San Gorgonio ' s wrestling stars were freshman David Whitaker at 105 pounds, Zack Flores at 121 pounds, senior Mike Houser at 155 pounds, and Idrisa Sammah at 167 pounds. The team had something not many other wrestling teams had. They had wrestleret- tes. These were a group of girls who cheered on the wrestlers, kept stats for the coaches, and just lent their support to the team. These girls could be found on the sidelines of every home and away match.

Below: Sophomore, Brian Keefer looks for a pass up field, as JV goes against Colton. The Varsity and Junior Varsity soccer squads had very good seasons. Both teams worked hard and strived for success. Soccer, which is a fast moving sport, required the athletes to be in ex- cellent condition and show good ball control. This sport was swiftly sweeping the nation and would soon become very popular. Three girls played on the JV squad. Since there was not an all girls squad, this was a great ac- complishment for Laura Brown, Janet German and Collette Chase. Janet was quoted as saying, It was a great challenge playing soccer this year. Both teams practiced everyday after school until 3:00 p.m., and most of the players were able to get in an extra workout during sixth period PE. The JV squad was coached by Mr. Homen, while the Varsity squad was under the instruction of Mr. Jerry Beeman. The team placed third in the Citrus Belt League and was able to go on to CIF where they were eliminated after the first round. Six players were named for CBL teams. First team was Gary Florin, James Vancura and Barry Molten. Se- cond team was Richard Althouse, Scott Howes and Tim Franklin. Soccer continued to become a major sport both at San Q and in this country ' s athletics.

You could tell when your best defensive player on the varsity team was a freshman. With a dismal linishing record of 3 7 in the CBL (6 1 overall) the Spartans started working on a way to solve the past season s pro- blem — lack of teamwork. ' We have great players, but we have to play together, like a faml- ly. replied starter Joyce Jackson, a senior. In a lackluster year, one diamond in the rough was freshman Laura Beeman. the only freshman on the varsity team She credited her parents for motivation during games. They come to most every game. added Beeman But then, the same goes for the other players ' families. It was a tough year for coach Leanne (Jlmer to swallow Especially after coaching varsity volleyball Into the CIF playoffs However, she remained confident of the starting five with Beeman. Bev Flowers. Denlse Gilette. Jackson, and Selene Trapp Junior varsity, however, looked extremely promising. JV coached by Stan Ailred, finished the year 1 5-3 (7 3 in the CBL) Our best game was against Fontana. said Ailred. We put together four solid quarters in that game. Everyone got to play. (San G sank the Steelers that day 4 1 26) The JV team was fortunate to have two juniors in thctr lineup Guard Becky Carranza and center Linda Raiskums consistently were among the top scorers in the team (Carranza was the team captain ) The rest in the starting lineup were all freshmen, guard. Michelle Her nandez, and forwards, Theandra and Erica Sams. They (Carranza and Raiskums) are very good added Ailred. But Erica Sams has been our leading scorer. However, there was more to this team than just starters. Theresa Miller and Diane Roberts were the top reserves on the team. The two freshmen had more than held their own against opponents These two teams had almost opposite records, but both had a team spirit and comradene that could not be beat. James P.

Right: Shooting a free throw, Shelly Williams helps the team take the lead over Colton. Some people get all the credit Sitting in the shadow of the varsity team, the junior varsity and freshman basketball teams each enjoyed successful seasons against other excellent teams. JV, coached by Ed Kearby, dominated the CBL just like the varsity squad, highlighted by blasting of 104 33 over hapless Colton, a San G JV basketball record. Both teams (varsity and JV) had equal records, and played the same way. So what was the difference? We both have a man toman defense and a fast break like the Lakers. I wish I knew the difference, said forward, Robbie Simpson. The starting lineup of Kenny Spears, center; Russ Daniels and Richard Roach, for- wards; and Brian Reinert and Willie Ellison, guards worked very well. With Simpson and Brian Wiss as reserves, the only difference seemed to be that they got no respect. Another similarity was that practice for all three levels was the same. There is loads of running, added Wiss. And no screwing around, like you see on ' The White Shadow. ' Hovering around the 500 mark all season long, the freshman team put out a solid effort game after game. However, not having the luxury of play- ing an organized league, like varsity and JV in the CBL, took its toll. Playing against other excellent freshman teams made it a rough year, but the team along with the star- ting five of Victor Wright, Joe Hill, Rod Molton, Willie Winsley, and Mark Ally remained confident. It ' s been a pretty tough year, agreed Billy Hamilton, a top reserve. We just don ' t play other CBL teams. I still think we got a lot of talent. We just ran into some tough times. Tough times or not, both squads were more than enough to carry on San Gorgonio ' s dominance in basketball.

It seems that every year there is a basketball player who receives scholarships. This year it was Dave Sieger. Sieger had a hard time deciding whether or not he wanted to play basketball. Before he was in high school, he played soccer. One day when he was a freshman, Sieger and some friends were playing around in the gym and Coach Stockham liked him. Coach kept bugging Sieger to play and decided he would. Sieger has played center, forward, off guard and hopes to play point guard in the future. Sieger received a scholarship to the University of Oklahoma, where he will be playing basketball. He likes (J of O because it has a good balance between academics and sports. Sieger ' s goals are to complete college with a degree in computer science and do his best to make it to the NBA. Sieger has now played four years and is still going strong.

Even Coach Doug Stockham predicted Eisenhower to win the CBL in stead of his own three time consecutive champion team Maybe San G used it as an incentive They started with easy opening wins against Banning and Pacific and went on to win their fourth straight Corona Tournament, capped with a remarkable victory over an excellent Moreno Valley team Finally, the Spartans arrived for their first home meeting against the Arlington Lions. San Gorgonio cap sized the lowly team without much trouble. Next came Moreno Valley. Dubbed The Rematch ' , it lived up to its name, until a fight errupted and Moreno Valley was given five technical foul shots. The controversial call gave the opponents a victory of sweet revenge and stopped San G ' s regular season winning streak at 45 The Spartans didn ' t let this slow them down. With the outstanding play of center Dave Sieger and Marvin Cash, San Gorgonio won the San Bernardino Kiwanis Tourna ment for the second straight year The first team to ac complish such a feat since 1962 3 when Long Beach Po ly did it. For his efforts, Sieger was awarded the SB Kiwanis Tourney MVP award. With an unprecedented 25 consecutive Citrus Belt League victories, San Gorgonio began its bid to win its fourth consecutive CBL title Opening against Scott Kay ' s Pacific Pirates, the host Spartans had little trouble handing their crosstown rivals 0-1 record. After winning six more, one from a very tough Eisenhower team, to extend the streak to 32, San G had their easiest game against the Colton Yellowjackets, han- ding their eighth CBL loss in as many games, 108-56. Defeating Eisenhower and Fontana again to end the season (100) and to extend the streak (35), San G ranked fourth in CIF ' s 3A division, they began the playoffs against the Los Amigos Lobos.

After a successful fall and winter, San Gorgonio geared up in hopes of an equally successful spring, with baseball, Softball, swimming, diving, and boys ' tennis on schedule. Opening with a disappointing 5-5 tie against San Bernardino High School, Spartan varsity baseball used a scratch offense (one that uses stolen bases, bunts, hitandruns. and sacrifice flies) along with an excellent defense to hopefully produce a CBL championship. They came extremely close, baffling Pacific with their jackrabbit style. On the other side there was Softball. Relying on defensive work heavily, senior pitcher Tracy Webber took command but the Spartans also fell short of a CBL crown. Swimming and diving were disappointing. Very few highlights could be found as San G tried again to improve on one of their weaker sports. Following their opening matches being cancelled due to rain took its toll on boys ' tennis. A relatively young sport for San Gorgonio, the team was looking for an overall better team maturity. An overall success, San G did not shine as bright as in fall in winter, however. But in the near future the Spartans soon would dominate in spring sports as well. James Curran, class of ' 86 Tennis players display talent The 1982-83 Tennis team consisted of twenty-five members. Of these members, eleven were members of the San Gorgonio Varsity Tennis team. Although the rain caused some problems during the matches, the team played tough and to the best of their ability. When some of the players were asked what they dreaded most, a few said they hated riding the bus to away matches. The Tennis team met early in the year for a few important meetings to discuss plans for the upcoming season. These meetings gave the players and Coach Powell a chance to meet each other, since he was a new coach to the team. Practice, a long grueling running experience, was held every weekday. Practice started at 2:00 sharp. Every player on the team had to run three miles, which usually took thirty minutes. During practice, the team worked on volleying, getting down their strokes and getting their serve in the proper spot. There were many talented players on the team. In singles, Jeff Robinson, Paul Scholl, Susik Lee and Tim Toth did a superb job for the team. In doubles, Dave Coldren, Steve Schmidt, John Jure and Todd Stewart also teamed up for an excellent job. Coach Powell commented, All the boys endured and tried hard. I think we made some real improvement. Above right: Susik Lee warms up before a match by practicing his serve.

There were many different kinds of exercises for the different parts of the body. If one was underweight, he or she needed to do the basic squats, bench presses, etc. He may have needed to eat as much as possible. Drinking a powdered protein mix would help also. It one was overweight, he reversed the process by not eating so much and jogging or doing leg lifts, and sit ups. Some of the exercises were squats. The process was to put a bar with weights on the shoulders, then squat down and back up. This was good for the thighs. Bench- pressing was good to build up the chest. Sit ups were good for breath control before the lift. Junior, John Lucas benched 305 pounds and planned on entering the Iron Man contest. Coach Duncanson was in charge of the contest. Another serious lifter was sophomore, Idrisa Sammah; he could bench 250 pounds. He lifted for football and planned on lifting for a long time. Before one began lifting he had to warm up and stretch out. Weightlifting was to be taken seriously. Ron Glover, class of ' 84 Danny Quiggle, class of ' 86 Left: Building up the leg muscles.

Swim teams raise money to heat pools Had it not been for the efforts of the Aqua Athletics booster club, the boys ' swimming and diving teams may not have been possi- ble. With the combined efforts of the girls ' and boys ' teams, they raised enough in funds to heat the swimming pools for the en- tire spring. By selling Easter grams, working on weed abatement and sponsoring a very successful car washa-thon, they raised the money necessary to pay the bills given to them by the school district. With the combined efforts of co-coaches Mike Sisk and Mike Little, the team was able to complete a remarkably successful season. Practice was held from 6:30 am to the end of first period with Mike Sisk giving directions poolside. While Mike instructed diving after school from 3:30 until 5:30, Mike Little took charge of the swim prac- tice. The team averaged six thousand yards per day, and between laps the swimmers practiced starts and flip turns. Most were given the choice of strokes, but occasional- ly, the coach assigned a specific stroke for improvement of different muscles. Many of the athletes worked out at the local Nautilus in their spare time to keep in top shape. 1 ¥ tpi to.

They worked hard conditioning and working on their skills. The players did a good job keeping their field in excellent shape. Almost every day the team could be seen working hard and devoting their time and energy to build a better squad. In the beginning of the season, they started off very well by splitting a double header with San Bernardino High School. San G played quite well for an opening game. A lot of the players thought they would have a great team because of both their skill and enthusiasm that was demonstrated at the games. John Greswit, the head coach, and his assistants, Harold Southworth and Jerry Franklin, did a great job helping each player perform to the best of his capabilities. Jeff Solis said, It was a good season, thanks to the coaches and all of the people who came out to watch.

Player makes a difference in team ' s success San Gorgonio had an infinite number of extremely talented young athletes who made a difference in the way the athletic programs succeeded. One that stood out was captain of the Varsity Baseball team, senior Perry Amador. Perry had been playing baseball for ten seasons going on his eleventh When he was younger, he was too young to realize the interest of the game, except there was nothing else to do. Eventually he grew to love the game more each year. My mom started me in baseball when we lived in Colton. If you live in Colton, you have to play either baseball or football, or you have no friends. As far as his goals: His number one goal is to have his own World Series ring. His second goal is to be successful in everything dealing with baseball. His third goal is to try to teach others about baseball. As fa r as my career: I ' ll give it my most determined shot at the profes- sional leagues and go to school and work toward a teaching credential to become a coach. Memories he shared on San G ' s baseball team were the excite ment of hitting a grand slam, making diving cat- ches, winning games, and losing tough ones. But the most sincere memory he will always cherish is the brotherhood he shared with his teammates. The most devastating memory is the runn- ing Coach Arnold had designed for us but I ' ve never been disciplined so well in outfield and putting up batting cages to improve the program of baseball. The team was well coached by Coach Arnold and the coaching staff consisted of four new coaches. I felt our team this year played well together. The teammates I played with are just like brothers to me. Our team had a lot of talented players, like foot- ball and three year baseball letterman Roland Acevedo. Our other captain Mamie Jimenez, Steve Haight, Peter Reyes, Mike Gomez, Fernie Agundez, Larry Richards, John Nagy, John Pellow and Horace Bellamy were also very talented players on our squad this year. Perry Amador stressed his apprecia tion for Coach Arnold. The most talented player on our team was Coach Arnold. He ' s a great coach as well as a great person. As a student athlete, I ' d like to thank Coach Arnold and the whole San Gorgonio teaching staff for four memorable years at our school.

Long before the season even started, one found the varsity baseball team practicing hard to condition themselves for their upcoming season. The guys started practicing for tryouts on February 14. There was a rigorous two weeks of conditioning and a run over all of the fundamentals. At the end of this two-week period, the guys found out whether they made the team. Seventeen guys were selected for the varsity team. This included eight seniors, five juniors, and four sophomores. The coaches who led the team were Coach Larry Arnold, Jack Boyne, Craig Marioka, and Sam Humphries. The coaches pushed the team as hard as they could. As Coach Arnold commented, You always want them to excel, to perform at their max. You hope that they do, to reach their goals so we push them hard! The coaches all felt that the team did well. They went as far as their pitching would take them. They had a strong defense and solid hit ting but their weak point was their pitching which was about 75% of the game. They had a solid club and as the captain and three year let- terman Perry Amador summed it up, As a team we learned to excel in certain disciplinary responsibilities on the baseball field which not only abled us to be one of the top three teams in the Citrus Belt League, but also to be winners in our most important environment in the course of the future.

Spartan player Tracy Webber grew up with softball • - - - Girls ' softball opposition was forced to deal with an unex- pected problem, the sure and speedy hands of senior Tracy Webber. Tracy played starting pitcher as well as shortstop for the Spartans. She began playing softball when she was ten years old in Highland summer league and grew up with the game from there on. What does Tracy like most about playing for San G? I pitch and I ' m right in the middle of everything. Being in the center of things is not her lifetime goal, however. Although she plans to play ball at San Diego State University, she is hoping to ac- quire a B.A. in business administration. After this she would like to enter the field of word processing. In addition to playing softball, her hobbies include eating, dancing, partying, and playing volleyball. She played on varsi- ty volleyball for San Gorgonio as well. Just what does it take to be a good softball player? Among Tracy ' s list of necessities were having to hustle, not being afraid of getting dirty, working as a team member, and absorb- ing what the coach tells you. You have to learn and sharpen the basic fundamentals of softball and you have to be dedicated.

These accomplished athletes have lettered three or four years in a single sport, and have earned the right to wear a white letter after the third year of that sport. Many of the athletes may even earn white letters in more than one sport. Four year lettermen receive a specia certificate for their accomplishments. In fall sports, football was the most popular, boasting lettermen Perry Amador and Robert Prince. The girls tennis ran held overall record of 11-4 with the efforts of three year letter holders, Janet Hobbs and Annette Herzberg. On the court, throughout the season, the pair were doubles partners. Another fall sport, water polo, named Frank Havermann as a letterman and as most valuable player. Michelle Niday earned a white letter for her participation on the volleyball team. During the winter months, basketball both boys ' and girls ' , attracted the most attention. The determination of letterman Marvin Cash helped the team reach the quarter finals in CIF. Senior Joyce Jackson received a white letter for the girls ' basketball team. Soccer, another winter sport that faired well, had lettermen Gary Florin and Rex Hollifield as team members. They took third in the Citrus Belt League and also went CIF. In the pools, swimmers Annette Herzberg, Theresa Senn, Jennifer Craig, and Frank Havemann were awarded three and four year letters. Diver Keith Adams was another athlete who sported a white letter. Mike Houser aided the wrestling team during their season as he too earned the position. Spring sports experienced a cut with the omission of badminton and $ golf. The baseball team listed I members Roland Acevedo and Perry Amador as their lettermen. Key players on the girls ' Softball team who earned letters were Tracy Webber, Denise Gillette, and Lorrie Chaney A year-round activity, leadership also gave students the right to white letters. Seniors Margie Robles, for flags, and Heather Shulte, for cheerleading, were awarded for their spirit. Football letterman Robert Prince commented, It is really exciting when your coach hands you that letter. Above right: After receiving a letter, most lettermen purchase jackets Jackets range from just a name on the back to elaborate artwork as that worn by Brian Webb.

This sentiment was expressed by Lou Brock, former St. Louis Cardinal superstar. At an assembly held on February 3, Mr. Brock arrived to en- courage students to become involved in the Youth Leadership Program sponsored by Group W Cable. This program awards $1,000 to a selected student in the area. Serving as a national spokesman for the scholarship, Mr. Brock answered ques- tions about both the program and his ex- periences as a baseball player. Already, seven students from San G were chosen to represent the school. Don Bradley, Linda Hanlon, Janet Hobbs, Joyce Jackson, John Kocher, Cheryl Pro- vence, and David Verkest were among those selected from the San Bernardino area. From the four high schools, Cajon, Pacific, San Bernardino and San Gorgonio, a total of 27 students will com- pete for the award. The number of can- didates per school is in relation to the enrollment of the senior class. These students will compete on the basis of four areas — scholastic integrity, Physical fitness, cultural awareness, and community service. The Youth Leader- ship Program emphasizes the importance of becoming involved in a variety of activities. A well rounded person can hold his own in all conditions. If he specializes in only one or two areas he is vulnerable in others, Lou Brock stressed. Possibly the need to recognize a student who is well rounded stems from the fact that Lou Brock himself is considered a well rounded ballplayer. He has been acknowledged as the only player to steal over 900 bases and have more than 3,000 hits in a career. Another accomplishment Mr. Brock holds is his batting average of .391, the highest in World Series history.

Above: Mr Shephard and Mr. Southworth ask questions of Mr. Brock during the press conference. It ' s helped me to grow, to under- stand the youth of America, ' ' he stated thoughtfully, Becoming involved in the Youth Leadership Program demands a great deal of time, but he fully enjoys it. Meeting and talking to the contestants is the part he enjoys most. Mr. Brock believes that students these days are more aware of their career options, especially within the past two years. They have a lot of tough decisions to make. Since it began two years ago, this pro- gram has expanded. First in five cities, it has grown now to 14. Lou Brock ex- presses the hope that other per- sonalities will become spokespersons for it. One of the requirements of the con- test, following the completion of the ap- plication is to participate in an inter- view. This interview will be video-taped and shown before a panel of judges. Community leaders will compose the judging panels this spring. Mayor Bob Holcombe; Arthur Jensen, President of Valley College; and Sun editor, Wayne Sargeant will be three members on the board. Others will be Municipal Court Judge Marvann Iscatt; Ester Estrada, Director of Casa de Ramona; and Joan Johnson, former president of the Chamber of Commerce and owner of Kola Shanah Restaurant. These judges will decide the location of the reception banquet. All of the 27 students who participate in the event, plus their parents will be honored at that time. sports 193 tackle Students academics editors: Karen Clemens Cheryl Provence Academics Seeing and It is nearly impossible to imagine what a class would be like without visual aids. Those maps, filmstrips, textbooks, pictures, and so many more are a proven element to help with a student ' s education. Since a person absorbs about two-thirds of his knowledge through his eyes, it ' s little wonder that visual aids can help a student remember class material better. Science classes were the best example. Films were common, but the best way of remembering was by performing experiments. In biology and physio lab classes, students dissected anything from a worm to a sheep ' s brain. Combining chemicals, weighing, and measuring were just a few of the activities performed in the chemistry and intro-chem labs. Sometimes the nose knows, too, with those horrible odors creep- ing all over the A wing from Mr. Siperstein ' s and Mr. Vizard ' s classes. One day in physics, students used Slinkies to demonstrate waves. The math department also used many visual aids. Mr. Plimley, taught Algebra I, II, and trig, preferred the overhead projector to the chalkboard. In his geometry and Algebra II classes, Mr. Amstutz used brightly colored plastic shapes to catch and hold his students ' attentions. And of course, Mr. Southworth ' s geometry classes were assigned a project, such as building a miniature house, perfectly to scale. Maps and globes were familiar devices used in the geography classes. Students were able to gain a better perspective of the world through these. In other social studies courses, like POD, comparison shopping at three grocery stores, plus calling up to rent out an apartment or house were just a couple of things assigned by Mrs. Poindexter and Mr. Waddell, when planning a budget. The psychology students viewed slides, diagrams and film strips for visual learning. They also went to either a seminar at Loma Linda University, or played with elementary school children during the winter, to learn about behavior. There were many ways to learn, but the use of visual aids was the most important. Left: During Mr. Satterfield ' s English 2C class, Kim Miller learns about dangling participles.

Library has new hours Libraries have always helped, especially if someone wants to broaden their knowledge in whatever fields are necessary. San Gorgonio ' s library had a great example of selections beyond one ' s imagination. If you were a bookworm, this was the place to spend time. Books ranged from magazines, how-to books of all kinds, en- cyclopedias, to love stories. The important change in the library was its new hours. Philip Ma- jar, a junior noted, I wasn ' t aware of new hours. Usually, when I went to the library, it was because I had to. I find it a boring place to be. The library was open during lunch and before school. This gave students the chance to catch up on homework for the latter half of the day or to study for last minute quizzes. Some even used it to keep warm on extra cold days. Mrs. Corrigan and student aids helped by assisting students who needed help to find and check out materials. Janet Johnson, junior, had library as a class fourth period. She commented on the work they had to do, We wrote out overdue books and sent charge slips to the financial secretary. We also checked in and out books, and put shelves in order. The library is a great place to study because there are lots of references and information. It ' s great for students who want to be there. The work is pretty easy! Knowing the library would always be there was a big relief, to students as well as teachers. Along with new hours and great help, San Gorgonio ' s library was a great place to visit.

In school, typing improves the neatness of reports and essays. Most teachers are more favorably impressed with a typewritten paper than a handwritten paper. For students plan- ning on college, all research papers must be typed. If a student cannot type, they will have to pay to have someone who can type to type their paper. This can become quite expensive. For students who can type, this is a good way to earn extra money. Most every entry level job in the clerical- secretarial aspect of employment has a prere- quisite of the ability to type. In this computer age, keyboarding is the basic, fundamental skill needed to operate the computer efficiently and skillfully. In order to be able to get the most out of the computer time available, the operator should be skilled in keyboarding — speed and accuracy are both important. Typing might be considered a step- ping stone to bigger and better things in the business world. The first semester of typing, students learned the keyboard, developed speed, accuracy, and were shown the fundamentals of typing business letters and memorandums. The sec- ond semester of typing was a refinement of the skills learned during the first semester and gave the student a feeling of confidence in his her skill. To see a person advance from a novice to an accomplished typist is a thrill. Mrs. Chovick felt It ' s a joy to help someone acquire a skill that will be beneficial to him either personally or vocationally.

Sometimes the pieces match up but if they don ' t we try again in a different place, to see if it fits and when the puzzle is fit together it is a piece of an even larger puzzle a round puzzle, harder to solve than Rubik ' s cube because no one has the solution. The piece that makes this round puzzle complete is missing perhaps it will never be found the chances are decreasing. And to make the puzzle complete, all the pieces would have to fit then we would have no need to take it apart cause like a puzzle, you may lose a piece and may never find it again, making the puzzle incomplete. And when the puzzle is done, the pieces stare at the puzzle and their work and are impressed and you never want to take it apart again. Cause the pieces would be together where the manufacturer intended. Yes, the pieces would be together where they were put in the box to be and hopefully, the class of ' 83 will be this piece ' 83 — the class with class.

It was elected by the students as a compliment to their academic program. Mr. James Fotia, ceramics teacher felt, If all we learned was math, pretty soon we ' d be like a bunch of robots running around rattling off numbers. In ceramics, students learned methods of sculpture, hand-built pottery, wheel-thrown pottery, moldmaking, casting, decorating and glazing methods, kiln firing and maintenance in a studio situation. Students can ' t always relate to math, science or other academic classes, but they may be able to relate to ceramics. Ceramics was a relaxing class and let students express themselves in the projects they created. It let them get away from just an ordinary academic day. It also let them look forward to a class where they could make what they wanted to, and learn so much in the process. The strong demand for ceramics and the other arts at registration is but one indication that enrichment courses indeed do have an important part to play in a totally educated person, declared Mr. Fotia.

In all academic classes, a major portion of the student ' s grade was comprised from test scores Whether tests counted for more than half of a grade, or were averaged in along with assignments, they were all important So obviously, tests were something to worry about and ■ were often even dreaded. Teachers used many different forms of tests. Probably the most common were the multiple choice tests, (sometimes called multiple guess,) generally taken on scan tron cards. A student cannot forget that dreaded voice saying use a number two pencil and mark the cor responding bubble of the answer which best completes the state ment, Stacks of green scantron cards were the basis of many nightmares of students who dreaded these types of tests. Another form of test taking was the good old true-orfalse quizzes. These were sometimes preferred, since students had a 50% chance of getting an answer correct that they do not know. True and false tests were an opportunity for teachers to slip in a lot of tricky questions though. These quizzes really could make a person think, since just one little word could cause the entire meaning of the statement to change. The third, and most often dreaded form of tests was the fill in the blank type. Either students had to supply their own answers from memory, or choose from a long list of possible solutions. The chances of getting a problem correct that a student did not know were limited ' this way. Unlike the multiple choice, when a 25% chance was possi ■ ble, or the true and false, with a 50% chance, the fill in the blank made things considerably more difficult for the student who forgot to study. There were several other forms of tests that teachers sometimes ( gave, such as an open book or surprise quiz. In the open book exam, a student was permitted to use the text book, from which the questions were extracted. The surprise test was quite uncommon, and most students bombed them, because they had no opportunity to study the night before. Though test taking was a relatively unpleasant experience, a stu- ; dent felt a bit more confident when he found out what kind of test he would be taking, and studied from these clues.

Sophomores section organizer: Shana Paulsen The sophomore class was finally moving up on the scale of respect. They were no longer the freshmen at the bot torn of the scale. They felt they had the ability and enthusiasm to reach their highest goal no matter what that was. We ' re really proud of the sophomore class because everybody works together and gets along real good, explained sophomore Maria Krug. This was proved true when the sophomores took first place with their Homecoming float. The float showed mountains and a hot air balloon rising, which gave their reaction to their future fantasy. Another example of sophomores working together was their booth at the first San Gorgonio Homecoming car- nival. They worked around the clock at their booth, which was a game, but was ignored because people would buy and inhale the helium balloons. Many squeaking voiced sophomores and car- nival goers strolled the midway. Jeff Solis added, The carnival was a lot of fun, even though many of the clubs didn ' t make much profit. But, I think the most important thing was it gave the sophomore class another chance to get together and have a rowdy time. The class of ' 85 was well spirited, energetic and full of ideas. They came a long way during the year. Scaling the plateau stressed that sophomores were still just coming into the limelight. They worked for the status they felt they should have. They worked together as a group, being persistent and flexible with all ideas. scale to the plateau Above: During PE Carol Cofrancisco practices to improve her tennis skills.

Sophomores win tough election as class officers At the close of the school year of 1982, some important decisions had to be made. One of those included selecting the sophomore officers for the upcoming year. The elections turned out to be the most outstanding in the seventeen year existence of San Gorgonio. Posters and stickers were visible throughout the entire campus. It was a hard-fought battle for everyone of the candidates. Representing the sophomore class were Jeff Solis — President, Maria Krug — Vice President, Michele Castellano — Secretary, and Laurie Davies — Treasurer. One of the major projects of the sophomore class was the building of the float. The float was constructed at Paula Hannigar ' s house. The determination of the sophomores became evident when the the float was virtually destroyed by members of the other classes. We couldn ' t have done it without the help of all the sophomores, said Jeff Solis. The sophomores kept High Hopes of 85! (which was the theme of their float), and struggled to complete it before judging. We had to work twice as hard, replied Michele Castellano, and fast to complete the damage that had been done, commented Laurie Davies. •Partaw Above: Sophomore class officers: Maria Krug, Vice President; Jeff Solis, President; Laurie Davies, Treasurer; Michelle Castellano, Secretary.

Their work paid off by their first place award in the competition. There were only the floats of the aqua athletics club and the freshmen class, but the announcement of this award was quite an honor The senior and junior floats were disqualified from the judging because they had wrecked each other ' s floats that morning. The sophomores were pretty excited and thought it was great that the judges took into consideration that their float had been wrecked twice before, therefore it wasn ' t ready for placing. The start of building the float began with donations of napkins and later came the ideas of what their Future Fantasy would actually be Soon everything fell into place and the building was the last straw The hard work paid off with the award. I ' m really proud of the sophomore class because everybody worked together and got along really well. said Maria Klug. Michelle Castellano added, The sophomore class is so great cause we worked together and we are all great friends and that ' s important when you ' re destined to complete a project. The sophomore class was working really hard, even the last day and look what they achieved. Working on the float wasn ' t all work. The fun and games were part of it too and will always be with the sophomore class. It was a very spirited group as long as they kept up their togetherness.

However, Valerie also has a more serious side. Valerie volunteers at Norton Air Force Base as a Law Enforcement Ex- plorer Her job entails secretarial receptionist work, working at the gates and patroling the base Valerie was informed about the Explorers by a friend. Working with this youth volunteer group has shown Valerie many exciting experiences, such as working at the three day US Festival as a security guard and patroling the Open House days on base The Explorers met at Security Police Headquarters every Monday to discuss different cases of crime, laws, violations, and traffic mishaps and how they could have been prevented. They also discussed upcoming events on and around the base. Once a week, the Explorers underwent a routine uniform inspection. Demerits were issued to those wearing sloppy uniforms. If a badge was forgotten, the nametag was out of place, a barret was on crooked or the uniform was not ironed, that person was penalized. When a person talked while their Commanding Officer was speaking, that individual was warned, then punished. As to the strictness of the Explorers, Valerie feels, Being in the Explorers is a fun and worthwhile experience that I will never ever forget.

The sophomores walked into registration with a fair idea of what to do. They tried to take the responsibility of being a step above the freshmen and acted a little more mature than last year. Of course, they still giggled and ran around, but that was expected after be ing away from friends over the whole summer. The sophomores were the last class to register and so they encountered more problems than the rest of the classes. Being the last class, many of the classes they wanted to take were already taken, so this meant changing their schedules and sometimes having to take leftovers. It was just like being at the bottom of the totem pole again. Sometimes it was very exasperating, but with the help of the counselors and teachers everyone was able to get a full class schedule. Overall everything went rather smoothly. The sophomores just accepted the fact that they still had a way to go to being at the top, but at least they weren ' t at the bot- tom anymore.

We work with girls our age so we have a lot of fun, said Donna Makaguma. We make a lot of new friends. added Donna Eshelman. The candy stripers also arrange fund raisers in which the donations are given to the hospital. So far we have assisted in the opening of a new wing and at the present time we are working on purchasing life saving equipment, both of them said. Donna E shelman commented, We get to know how the hospital really is and how it operates.

The Summit, San G ' s showgroup, per formed a dance and song routine to the song It ' s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas. Among some of the other highlights of the program were returning Spartan Ben Vessup ' s solo performance of Ring the Bells, Jubel Obien ' s solo of IVe Are the Reason, and of course the choir and orchestra ' s collaboration of various Christmas numbers. Many community members and parents also made the pro- duction possible. Of course the program would have never gotten off the ground without the direction of Mrs. Noakes, choir director, and Mr. Emmerson, orchestra conductor. Many preparations were also made prior to the production. Dedicated students and parents constructed the Living Christmas Tree with scaffolding and tree cuttings. Many long hours were committed towards the show, but in the end it all paid off in a successful program expressing the talent of San Gorgonio ' s music department to the community and other members of the stu- dent body.

This seemed very degrading because the only other class that was stuck at school was the freshmen class. So, many of the sophomores found friends who were older and had cars to transport them out to lunch. San Gorgonio students were very lucky since there were so many fast food restaurants to go to so close to school. For some, at the end of the year, their dreams came through and they were finally able to drive out to lunch. Those who remained on campus complained about the food served at lunch. Tracey Wallen said, I really don ' t like staying at school for lunch because the food isn ' t that good. For Andy Bryant lunch was the low in his day, Lunch is kind of a waste because it ' s only a half hour and if you can ' t leave, you just stand around because you don ' t want to eat the cafeteria food.

Students at San Gorgonio had many different preferences in the music they listened to. These choices ranged from rock to soul and everything in between. Many students also favored newer types of music such as New Wave and Rock-a-Billy. Many new movies also provided hit songs and albums such as Pink Floyd ' s The Wall and Fasf Times At Ridgemont High, which had music from well known groups such as Sammy Hagar, Billy Squier, The Go-Go ' s and many others. A favorite past time of many students was going to concerts. This way they could hear and see their favorite groups live. This was easi- ly accomplished since one could attend the concerts right here in San Bernardino at the Orange Pavillion. A few of the groups who came here were Eddie Money and Missing Persons.

Krista Joetta Mays who was merely fifteen years of age and a sophomore at San Gorgonio started modeling since her mother first enrolled her at the Rose Marie Bailey Agency. Modeling is lots of fun and I also teach people of all ages at the agency. One of the things I enjoy most about teaching is becoming acquainted with many interesting people, said Krista. Working in such a competitive field, Krista had more than just the look , she was extremely outgoing, relax- ed, and self-assured around people of all ages. Her profes- sional attitude qualified her for the teaching position and would assist her as she sought to work behind the scenes as a fashion merchandiser sometime in the future. With the little spare time I have, one can find me reading books of all sorts, except science-fiction or maybe waterskiing, which I love, Kirsta stated. During weekends, she did fashion shows mainly in malls and taught four days a week leaving little time for extra activities. Her pay varied, but she earned $75.00 for the shows and $5.00 an hour for teaching. My favorite fashions are crazy Vogue style and new wave. Things that are original and different interest me, Krista explained. She still liked clothes after all the changes she had to make and suggested that if one was interested to enroll in classes first with an agency. Krista said with much conviction, All guy models are not gay. The people working for the agency are special and we are one big happy family. We often go out together after a show. Not only were her co-workers supportive, but her parents had been terrific in helping her. She admired Rose Marie Bailey and one day hoped to follow in her footsteps. Linda Hanlon, class of 83 ' .

This assembly was mainly to in- troduce the Powderpuff candidates, but a class competition was held since it was the Christmas season. This competition was between the sophomore and freshmen class officers to see who could decorate their Christmas tree with the most originality and style. The juniors and seniors didn ' t compete because they had not bought a tree. The competitors were given two minutes to decorate their trees. The sophomores were very original with their decorations. They used stringed pop- corn, stuffed animals, stockings, and they even had Curtis Williams and Michelle Bradac dress up as babies to sit under the tree. They also had lights, but with elec- trical problems they couldn ' t be used. Sophomore secretary M ichelle Castellano said, We spent so much time on our tree mainly stringing popcorn that we felt we should have won. But unfortunately, the sophomores were defeated by the freshmen. Above: Before the tree race, sophomore Michelle Bradac gets the strings of popcorn ready.

Sophomores knew the answer to that question. To be preppy, was Theresa Arriola ' s definition of school spirit. Sophomore Regina Gonzales thought it involved, Getting up and saying yeah San G and going crazy. Most of the sophomores polled did attend assemblies but thought more people were needed to arouse school spirit. Sophomore Brian Wiss thought students should have stayed for assemblies more often. Don ' t give students the right to leave, because if they do, they don ' t show spirit. Sophomore Mike Sheppard said, Having pride and show- ing more participation would improve the assemblies. Some assemblies were more successful than others. Among the most attended assemblies were ones dealing with football and basketball. Sophomore were also involved in soccer, baseball, and tennis. What kind of person qualified for the most spirited sophomore: Many sophomores looked for the person ' s con- sideration of others and his involvement in school activities.

INewhart , The A Team , and Knight Rider were among the most popular. I really like Knight Rider said Thomas Hannemen. These shows ranged from comedies to drama stories. Sophomore, John Voce commented, I really enjoy watching Filthy Rich, on Tuesday nights. Besides these TV. shows many students, mostly girls, enjoyed watching soap operas, some of which were on at about the time school got out. The most popular of t hese was General Hospital . A new type of television that became very popular was M.T.V. (Music Television). This was on a special cable channel for 24 hours a day. They played music videos mostly of rock and new wave groups performing. They had D.J. ' s and special concerts and inter- views with the most popular groups. Overall, this was probably the most watched by the students of San Gorgonio. Above: After a tiring tennis match. Missy Stewart takes a break before tak- ing on the next opponent.

For instance, Mr. Satterfield ' s English class students were required to read the Invisible Man, Hound of the Baskervilles, Great Expectations, and Frankenstein The students were to take notes on these books, and then they were tested. Nancy Griffin, one of Mr. Satterfield ' s students, commented, I real- ly have fun in the class and the books are ' ways pretty good. Another project which Mr. Kenley ' s English class students were to do was have a speaker come and talk for a period of their class. This was the only way of achieving an A in the class. There were many steps in obtaining a speaker. The first of these was to phone around and get in contact with someone who would be willing to speak. Next, the student had to write them letters so the ap- pointments would not be forgotten, even though there ended up to be a few no shows. After this, the students made posters and placed them around the school so that other students, not in Mr. Kenley ' s class, could also attend. Over the years, the projects in Mr. Kenley ' s class hadn ' t changed. Mr. Salter- field was teaching at San G. for the first time, but felt his projects wouldn ' t change much.

There are reasons why those corners of the mouth go up and unmask the real feelings of a person. A smile can be revealed by just having a happy thought or seeing something that was touching. Smiling is followed by laughter. People cannot laugh without putting the big- gest smiles on their faces. Doctors have long proved that laughing is good for the heart muscles. Everywhere you turn, you can always find a different smile. The sly smile is a deceitful way of showing someone that you have something up your sleeve. Another smile is caused by love which has a special meaning to each who ob- tain it. Boys and girls who are in love, give each other smiles from across a classroom or even when they ' re just talking about something two feet from each other. A smile which is not well-liked by people who receive it, is a sneer. People who give this smile to someone who do not feel the whole world of that person. Regularly seen on many people is the friendly smile. This smile is shown by everybody, friends, strangers, etc. ... As a result of this smile, it has become a universal way of saying hi . Smiling and laughing is a part of a person ' s basic human nature. As sophomore Colette Chase said, It gives your face something to do. Kathy Lockley, class of ' 84 Top: Don Benegas ' reason for smiling, he says, is It makes people wonder what I ' ve been up to. Above: When asked why she is smiling.

Right: Shelley Howard explains the object of the game at the freshmen class booth while Gidget Pittman looks on. editor: Stella Ruiz section assistant Crystal Silas The active Spartan was always the guy whose mug turned up in every club picture. As with many high schools, present and past, assembling together and forming an organization to repre- sent a certain group was the best way to get your picture on every page. Making yourself part of a club was a great way to show just how active you were and how important you felt your school was. Maybe your goal was just to get out and meet people in school or let ' everybody know who you were. The purpose of clubs was to bring together students who were interested in getting together and sharing their thoughts and ideas. Raising money was many clubs ' primary thought, and they filled their needs by selling candy, ornaments or holding car washes. Then they reward- ed themselves with a trip to a famous Californian amusement park or a dinner at an exotic restaurant. One of the largest examples of clubs hiking ' ' together was the Homecoming carnival held in the student parking lot. Clubs compiled their ideas and chose which activity they wanted to represent at their booths. The booths ranged from selling food to the playing of a game where the winners were given a prize. That was the first San Gorgonian car- nival and maybe the last. The reason was because most of these clubs did not make much of a profit. Another tradition of club organization was ICC day. Again clubs assembled and sold food or represented a game. This was always successful because it was during school and of course profits were made. ICC was always a big help to many of the clubs. It consisted of all the club presidents and together they decided what activities they would par- ticipate in. Clubs were of extreme importance to school. They made an ordinary day much more interesting. They gave students the chance to add variety to school life away from the books and pencil pushing. Just like hiking together, students helped each other reach peaks they could only reach together. April Abreau a senior added, Clubs are important because they let students get involved in activities aside from schoolwork. Senior Krista Brown concluded, Assembling with other people and sharing the high school times of great fun, should be experienced. That ' s why clubs are very essential. hike 1 it fit J : 1 Above: Opening day of the displays, like Pam Stoker coaxes Robbie Simpson into carnival brings excitement as all clubs prepare their n the choir booth.

When meetings were over, these representatives gave reports to their classes on what was discussed at the meetings and what was to be planned.

It ' s Bonnie Franklin and Nell Carter! True, you wouldn ' t ordinarily see these people on the San Gorgonio cam- pus, but you would see some San Gorgonio students in the NBC, CBS, and ABC taping studios. How? Through a club call ed the Daytrippers. The Daytrippers was a club that provided students with the opportunity to visit parts of Southern California one wouldn ' t be able to visit ordinarily. The Daytrippers were the most active club on campus. They visited such show tapings as The Jeffersons, Silver Spoons, One Day at a Time, Gimme a Break, and Three ' s Company. On these trips into Los Angeles, the members were allowed to walk and see the sights and eat dinner after the shows were taped. Each trip cost only one dollar. Other activities included participation in the October Car- nival sponsored by San Gorgonio where they sold nachos and other Mexican foods. They also planned a talent show for March. The first prize was $50.00 and a trophy, second and third would receive trophies. The officers of the 1982-1983 Daytrippers were as follows: Sonya Granillo, President; Duane Turner, Vice-President; Tifani Trapp, Secretary; and Beckon Wrysinski, Treasurer. Sonya Granillo commented, The members are really terrific. We have everything from freshmen to seniors and we ' re all like one big happy family.

Founded several years ago by Mr. Tim Burroughs, the Alive club has been going strong ever since. The adviser of the Alive club, Mr. Amstutz, credited the popularity of the club to the neat kids in it and the fact that they like the Christian Fellowship. Every Thursday, lunch time was set aside for meetings in the chorus room. Songs, prayer, and sharing were often on the agenda. Speakers were invited to speak at the meetings. Bob Campbell, a familiar face at most of the meetings, commented, The Alive club has made me feel alive. We have a lot of fun together. Besides the weekly meetings, school club members participated in many school activities and had activities of their own. For ICC day, a sponge throw booth was set up to raise money for donations to charities. An excursion to Mex- ico to visit an orphanage was one of many things planned for the year.

Throughout the year, America had a steady stream of visitors from countries around the world However, there was one in particular who visited San Gorgonio through AFS Her name was Catarina Coelho. Catarina was a foreign exchange student from Lisbon, Portugal. While Catarina visited California, she lived with her American ' fami ly, the Sherwoods. Their daughter Natasha also attended San Gorgonio. AFS or American Field Service, is an international intercultural ex- change system for students wishing to travel across the world, during the summer or during the school year, to meet new people and go to different schools in different countries Catarina did not have a choice of where in the United States she would be sent, however, she was sent to where she wanted to be — California I wanted to come here (California) because of all the wonderful stories I have heard. Of course the stories were of sun- shine, blue skies, blue oceans and snow capped mountains. Catarina visited many scenic places during her stay, among them were Disneyland, Magic Mountain. Lake Arrowhead, and Big Bear. She especially enjoyed Big Bear I ' ve never seen snow before. Catarina loved the beach and enjoyed aquatic sports such as water- skiing, sailing, and swimming. She also sketched, rollerskated and played tennis. Like any other American student Catarina enjoyed a variety of music, however, her favorite was Mew Wave. Her favorite groups were the Police. Genesis, Yes, and the Tubes. She even went to see a Van Halen concert Being in her senior year, her voyage to America was even more ex- citing. At San G.. Catarina was a very active student. She was a member of Student Council. German Club. Drama Club and AFS. As to the lifestyles of Americans and Portuguese she said, The girls paint ' their faces at a much earlier age. She also noted that the students here are much more dressy when they go to school. Catarina ' s favorite foods were, guess what? Doughnuts and pizza.

Western Civilization Clubs bring cultures to San G A class which was also a club was offered fifth period. Western Civilization, the class taught by Mrs. Ellison, studied the Western civilization cultures and customs of Europe, Ancient Greece and Egypt. At the start of the year, they began with a dinner at a Greek restaurant to get an idea of the Greek cultures they were to study. Every Monday night, they held seminars at different students ' homes. They reviewed in depth, subjects in class and gave reports. During Christmas vacation, an alumni seminar was held in which returning students attended. Anna Hinkle, a new member in the club, com- mented, It ' s a great learning experience, especially if you ' re interested in the different cultures and customs of the Western Civilization! Like Spanish, the French Club focused on those who were most interested in the many ways of life and customs of another country as well as the languages used. Students who were a part of the French club were usually just those who were taking French at that time. They helped decide what the club was going to be active in, on cam- pus, and off. To raise money they sold candy bars, and calendars. Further money making activities were those at the Homecoming car- nival, in which they rented a booth that had dip bowling as its game. Darrell Dorsey com- mented on the carnival booth and club meetings, The Homecoming carnival didn ' t bring us much profit. The meetings are very nice for the people that attend them. f Top: Western Civilization talks about ancient Greece ' s location and customs during fifth period Above: Mrs. Ellison, adviser of Western civilization wants you to join her club.

Catanna Coelho Spanish promotes interest in Hispanic Studies The Spanish Honor Society, a club which recognized students taking Spanish II, III or IV, with high achievement, pro- moted the continuity of interest in the hispanic studies. In order to be a member of the society, one had to maintain a B average and be in their second year of Spanish. A $2.00 in- itiation fee was required. The Spanish Honor Society also provided its members with the opportunity to take the National Spanish Test. The high achieving juniors received a trip to Spain and the high achiev- ing seniors received a $ 1 ,000 scholarship. The officers of the 1982-1983 school year were: President, Sheila Brookes; Vice-President, Maria Parks; and Secretary- Treasurer, Andrea Lanas. The club adviser was Mr. Eastwood, a teacher of second and third year Spanish. The club sponsored many activities. They took a trip in January to the Ballet Folklorico Nacional at the Ambassador Auditorium in Pasadena. They funded this trip by having can- dy sales and Mexican food sales. Connie Garcia commented, The club looks great, everyone gets along super. Mr. Eastwood added, It ' s an HONORARY club.

National Honor Society is a club that deals with scholarships Each year the club gives one scholarship, to a student in the club, worth approximately one-hundred and seventy five dollars. The club held meetings every other Wednesday in Mr. Emery ' s room. He was the club adviser. The officers of the 1982 1983 National Honor Society were: President, Linda Hanlon; Vice President, Laura Powers; Secretary, Janet Hobbs; and Treasurer. Kelly Aquino. It was their job to preside and motivate the club Dues were not really a problem for students Dues were only one dollar per semester Considering inflation, one dollar wasn ' t bad at all, said one member. The money from dues, as well as other fund raising money, was used to provide a student with a scholarship of adequate value. Some of the fund raising projects included selling shakers and candy bars. The shakers sold for one dollar and the candy bars sold for thirty-five cents. The California Scholarship Federation was a club that concentrated on giving away scholarships to qualified students. Students of this club had to be of high academic standing This club was a state-sponsored honor society which promoted statewide scholarships in all schools. Meetings were held on a monthly basis to discuss impor tant information on scholarships that were available to students. The CSF meetings were held in the C building under the direction of club adviser Mrs. Day. The officers of the 1982 1983 California Scholarship Federation were; President, Yolanda Ledezma; Vice President, Janet Hobbs; Secretary, Lawra Dierking, and Treasurer. Laura Powers. These officers and all of the members of CSF helped make the California Scholarship Federation a successful club. Some of the fundraising projects included selling corndogs at the carnival and sell ing candy in school It was a success. Drama English What ' s in a name If there was ever a special award given to the strangest club name on campus, the Dangling Participles would win with fly- ing colors. This club was made up of Mr. Satterfield ' s English classes and they held meetings once a month. What was the purpose? Basically it is made up of English students that would like fund raisers for English supplies. Beef jerky, candy, and selling gift check books were the main fund raisers the club had taken on. Mr. Satterfield and his students raised money to buy books. Club president, Carol Cofrancesco, joined the club because I wanted to take part in school activities and it just seemed like a good thing to do. The club officers also had peculiar names. The president or noun was Carol Cofrancesco, vice president or verb — Candy Spurgeon, secretary or adjective — Suzanne Quiggle and there were also several sergeant at arms who helped other officers. They were called modifiers. What did the students think of their English teacher-club spon- sor? Vice president Candy Spurgeon summed it up. Mr. Satter- field is nice. He ' s kind of strange, but I like him.

Speech Chess ■H Sobobans Sobobans hold Faculty luncheon Consisting of only senior girls, Sobobans was a service club which allowed girls with a 3.3 grade point average and above to join. Applicants had to have received three recommendations by teachers and filled out an application, which included an essay. Students were picked on how active they were in school and com- munity activities. The sponsor of this exclusive club was Ms. Hagerman. Meetings were held on Tuesdays and members of the club were to wear dresses on that day. Services that Sobobans did were holding a St. Patrick ' s luncheon for the faculty and staff and Christmas caroling at convalescent homes. Treasurer, Lana Tanaka said, We got a lot closer because we were a small group. We also associate out of the club. Sobobans President Cheryl Provence said, Our Sobobans in- duction was the nicest part of our year together. It really helped us learn about each other.

Clubs raise money to go places Black Students Union, commonly called BSU, was a club that was organized for black students. The purpose of BSU was to get black students at San Gorgonio to unite and to raise money. •The Black Students Union of 1982 1983 is called the All New BSU because we ' re doing more this year than we did last year and the members are much more cooperative, said Liz Thomas, BSU secretary. The officers of BSU for the 1982- 1983 school year were Kristy Myricks, President; Tina Meeks, Vice-President; Liz Thomas, Secretary; Peggy Sims, Treasurer; and Marvin Cash, Sergeant of Arms. The club ' s adviser was Coach Hall BSU was an extremely active club. They did several exciting things, such as a trip to the USC vs. UCLA basketball game, a trip to Magic Mountain and trips to show tapings like Gimme a Break and Silver Spoons. They also sponsored several lunchtime dances. Kristy Myricks commented, I think this club is a lot bet- ter than it was last year, and if we can keep it going, it will get bet- ter as the years pass. Future Farmers of America was a club on campus that dealt with agriculture and farming. FFA members met once a month or when the adviser felt the need to. At their meetings, the members were informed of coming attractions such as rodeos, live-stock judging, and fund raisers. The clubs adviser was Mr. Miller. He and all the club members met in the agriculture building located on the east side of the campus, across Arden. Dues were only five dollars for a year. The money collected from dues was used to purchase animals, fertilizers, and other necessary farming materials. There were approximately thirty-five farmers in the club. Many members commented on how much fun the club was. Member Annette Brooks said, FFA gives me a chance to improve my farming skills . During ICC Day, FFA sold a variety of plants to students. Members of FFA also held a potluck on Open House nights. They served 500 hamburgers and nearly 1000 hotdogs. No one was to go away hungry.

Aqua Athletics Wrestlerettes keep score Did you wonder what a wrestlerette was? Well, some peo- ple thought wrestlerettes wrestled like the guys, but that was wrong. A wrestlerette was a girl representing San Gorgonio, who kept score for the referees and tabulated the scores on the final score sheets, for each wrestling match. To be a wrestlerette is real easy, commented Michelle Sida, one of the two head wrestlerettes. All you have to do is be interested in the work and get along with people. Usually the team had four wrestlerettes, but they had 14 girls come out for the squad for the season. Sometimes when there was a match out of town only half the girls show- ed up though. The most important thing that the wrestlerettes did was keeping score. There were usually two wrestlerettes who kept score for one match, then the others usually cheered the wrestlers on to victory. The way the wrestlerettes knew the score was by the scoreboard, but another way was by the referee ' s wrists. The referee wore a green wrist band on his right wrist and on the left, he wore a red wrist band. When one of the wrestlers scored for his team or his period, the referee raised the wrestler ' s color and would have two or more fingers up and that would tell the scorekeepers how many points he gave that wrestlers team. The wrestlerettes worked hard concentrating on keeping points for the wrestler ' s and were a nice and refreshing feminine addition to a very masculine sport.

Softball Soccer Sports clubs raise money for equipment Mr. Maddox of Highland, was really surprised when he won two tickets to the Rose Bowl. The tickets were the grand prize of a raffle held by the soccer club to see the New Year ' s Day game where UCLA beat Michigan State. The money raised from the raffle went towards new sweats for the soccer team. Besides raising money for new equipment, the soccer club also promoted the sport. It ' s a good club. It keeps the team together, president Gary Florin said. To help keep the team a team , the club held meetings before games at McDonald ' s. This got the team fired up and ready to win their games. Sponsor of the club was Mr. Beeman. Officers were President — Gary Florin; Vice President — Jamo Vancura; Treasurer — Rex Hollifield. Karen Clemens, class of ' 83 Making sure baseball began with a strong start, was the Diamond club. Members were behind them one-hundred percent! The Dia- mond club consisted of all those playing on the team. They organiz- ed and raised money for needed equipment and uniforms. Fund rais- ing activities included a car wash and a six ball roll at the Homecom- ing carnival. Perry Amador commented, We use the left over money for a major party at the close of the season. To sum up the whole club Phil Nayor added, We ' re just a bunch of clean-cut, well-shaven, crazy guys! The club would also like to express their thanks to Coach Arnold for all his support and help this season.

Diamond club panaBunw Girls Basketball Basketball clubs take part in ICC day. The Hoopsters was a basketball club that helped raise money for the boys ' basketball team. The Hoopsters con- sisted of freshmen, junior varsity, and varsity basketball members. Sophomore member Chad Marshall said, This is a great club. We have done more this year than we ever did. The Hoopsters contributed to ICC day and attended the carnival. Willie Ellison, sophomore starter added, I think varsi- ty can take CBL no problems and we ' ll be in good competition during CIF playoffs. The club adviser was Coach Stockham. San Gorgonio ' s junior varsity and varsity girls ' teams are great, said a Spartan fan. The girls basketball teams supported themselves by having people sponsor them in a free throw-a-thon, for so much money per basket from a possible of one hundred baskets thrown. Freshman starter, Diane Roberts, commented about the junior varsity team, We ' re good but some players think the team is theirs. That gets on my nerves. Diane Roberts was the second tallest JV girl. She was 5 ' 10 center-forward. The tallest JV girl was Teresa Miller who measured at an even 6 ' 0 . All girls who played basketball were members of the active club.

Freshmen 268 freshmen The freshmen class was a rowdy spirited group making up the graduating class of 1986. They came from the six junior highs, Arrowview, Richardson PREP HI, Del Vallejo, Golden Valley, with the majority coming from Serrano and Curtis, The freshmen became involved in clubs, sports, and other extra curricular activities. The first event that the freshmen at- tended was an orientation. The orienta- tion was held in order to introduce the new spartans to San Gorgonio ' s cam- pus. At the orientation, faculty members and ninth grade cheerleaders were introduced; afterwards, members of student council gave the new students a tour of their new school. On September 9, the first day of registration was held. The freshmen were the first group to register. Choos- ing their schedule and the teachers they wanted was new to them. At first, the students were confused, but by the end of the day the freshmen were ready to face the first day of school. Student council members helped a lot by pro- viding answers and directions, com- mented Ann Nicklin. The first major event for the class of 1986 was the elections of class officers, which was held two weeks after school started. After elections the freshmen class was able to organize. The freshmen did many activities throughout the school year. The first activity the freshmen did together was being involved in Homecoming. The freshmen par- ticipated in their first homecoming by building a float. The float, a future space ship, was constructed at John Hitchcock ' s house. It was fun working with everybody, commented Terry Murphy, one of the builders of the float. The freshmen also participated in San G ' s first carnival. The class ran the 7-(Jp booth. The best part about work- ing at the booth was trying to persuade the crowd to try our booth, said Cheri Evans, a worker. Being in their first year, freshmen hesitated in trying out for sports, but many did and there were many outstanding athletes. Most freshmen played on JV teams with the exceptions of basketball and football, which had freshmen teams. The freshmen teams were supported by the freshmen cheerleading squad, which consisted of seven girls. The freshmen cheerleaders also traveled with the water polo teams. Although there were some clubs that did not allow freshmen to join, the ninth graders were not discouraged. They found many organizations where they were qualified and quickly paid their dues and added their names to the membership rosters. Most freshmen could not go off cam- pus for lunch because transportation was a problem, so they decided to spend their time wisely. They became involved by participating in their new club ' s meetings. The class of 1986 expressed their school spirit through active involve- ment. Considering it was the first year of high school for freshmen, it was very successful. start from the bottom Above: Jimmy Navarro and David Samaro find time during lunch to socialize with a friend. Right: Riding on the Aqua Athletics float during the Homecoming parade are Jason Young and Danny Quiggle. two freshmen members of the water polo team. Frosh hold campaign The first major event for the freshmen class was the election of class officers. Ninth graders who wanted to run had to complete a petition. The petition included the name of the position the candidate was runn- ing for, and fifty signatures of students. On September 27 the campaign started. Many vote for me posters were seen throughout the campus. Students put up posters before and after school. The final election was held on September 29. There really wasn ' t enough time to campaign, commented Scott Lawrence. There were no election speeches. Elections were held during lunch and each freshman went to the student council room if they wanted to cast their vote. The result of the elections were: Ann Nicklin, President; Scott Lawrence, Vice President; Lynn Howard, Secretary; and Michelle Vas- quez, Treasurer. The adviser for the group was Mr. Taylor. Even though they didn ' t have any major responsibilities, the officers did a good job, commented Mr. Taylor, the freshmen adviser.

Actually, this surprisingly quiet crowd of students was San G.s incoming freshmen at registration. Held on Thursday, September 9. in the cafeteria, registering for the fall semester ' s classes offered many a first impression of the school. Probably the most noticeable was the size of the campus. High school is much bigger and different than junior high, ' declared Paul Smith. Others echoed this sentiment while looking around, a little awed. Maps, for those who worried about becoming lost were supplied in each registration packet, and in the school ' s newspaper. The Oracle. The freshmen were relatively easy to spot. Some were seen tightly clutching their entire registration packet, or mommy ' s hand. More confident ones grouped with friends, trying very hard to seem sophisticated and calm. It wasn ' t really any big deal, Renea Martinez explained with a shrug Possibly due to the uneasiness of the group, they were very quiet and well behaved This was especially noticeable after seeing the seniors practically kill themselves to get in first. While waiting for their number to be called, the freshmen patiently sat at the picnic tables, making last minute schedule revisions. Once inside the cafeteria, many panic-stricken students stood rooted to the floor, unable to move. Fortunately, student council members, dressed in blue and white striped baseball jerseys came to the rescue and helped them out. Overall, freshmen registration is something preferably forgotten by most. It is generally laughed about in later years, but can be racked up as a learning ex perience.

In late April, girls that were eighth graders came to San G for practices. During practices, cheerleaders at San G instructed the girls on movement and cheers. Finally on May 20 the final tryouts were held. Seven girls were picked to represent the squad. The seven girls were Michelle Beard; Kelly Cooper, head cheerleader; Cheri Evans, co head; Renea Martinez; Ann Micklin; Michelle Vasquez; and Laura West. All of the girls who were picked had attended Serrano Junior High. The cheerleaders worked hard throughout the year. They practiced during the summer and went to camp. At camp they were evaluated and were given advice on how to im- prove their performance. The freshmen also went to com- petition. The members of the cheerleading squad agreed that the best part of being on the squad was the competitions. The freshmen team supported the water polo teams by cheering at games and giving them treats. The squad also cheered for the freshmen basketball team. The squad was very active and enthusiastic, adding more spirit to San G ' s campus.

The favorites were Burger King and Del Taco. There were many students who stayed on campus to face the long lunch lines. The majority of these students were freshmen. Freshmen did not drive and had no transportation to go out and en- joy the luxury of eating off campus. Those who stayed on campus found numerous activities to keep them busy. There were live bands, class competitions, and other forms of entertainment. Also several clubs held their meetings week- ly during lunch. If students chose not to be involved, there were other alternatives. The library was open throughout the lunch period. In the library one could study or relax by reading a book or magazine. Also, socializing with friends helped lunch go by quickly. During my lunch period, I sit with my friends in the cafeteria and discuss how our morning has gone, commented Anne Lorentzen. With all these different things to do, lunch from 1 1:30-12:05 didn ' t seem long enough.

What is a freshman? The age old description is a short, immature person, who can t find his or her way to class; the so called bottom of the barrel. But why must all freshmen have to bear such a cross? Face it, not all freshmen act like jerks that have just come from junior high. Some do act dumb and they deserve to be put down. Freshmen are expected to act dumb because it is their first year of high school, commented Karen Miller, a member of the class of ' 86 However, it ' s those that aren ' t short or immature and who can find their way to class, that this article is defending. Look around you, can you pick out forty students, that you don ' t know and say they re in the ninth grade because they act like total fools? Warning: be careful one could get a few sophomores or juniors, maybe even a couple of seniors. Thinking that all ninth graders are immature, short, and are always silly is pretty narrow-minded. Suggestion: grow up and examine the situation before callinq a ninth grader an immature freshman.

Scrambling for classes was something new for the freshmen. The majority of freshmen found it challenging. Joey Navarro com- mented, I did not like scrambling because it was confusing. In the morning most freshmen wandered through the hallways wondering what classes they were to report to receive their registra tion cards. Finally, after asking a friend or a upperclassmen, they found the class and picked up their cards. They then went to their first period class, 15 minutes late. What classes should I take? What teacher and what period should 1 have for this subject? These were all common questions of freshmen. I was not sure what classes I wanted to take, said freshman Roeshella Rockmore. Many decided to handle the problem by continuing to take the same schedule from the first semester. The most common schedule for freshmen included English 1, geography, math, P.E., foreign language or an elective and science. This schedule was recommended for college bound students, said Miss Wallace. The one thing that the freshmen liked about scrambl- ing was being dismissed at 10:30 a.m. Above right: Hard at work in Mr. Allred ' s geography class is Dean Schimmelpfen- nig Above: Taking a break in Mr. Bernard ' s period 5 algebra class are freshmen Lora Lock and Charis Weather Right: Enjoying herself in Mrs. Cassleman ' s English 1C class is freshman Andrea Pollard.

The freshman class had their own definition. School spirit is having pride in your school, com- mented Ruben Carranza. Another freshman, Terry Murphy, commented, School spirit is going for your school all the way, even in a losing game. The freshmen were a rowdy and spirited group of Spar- tans and showed it in a number of ways. The majority of freshmen attended football games and basketball games. Mary Bice said, I show my spirit by going to games and cheering. David Samaro, showed his spirit in a radical way by jum- ping up and down and going crazy at games. I show my spirit by going to games and making a lot of noise, saying cheers and having fun, said Laura Beeman. Another way the freshmen expressed their spirit was sup- porting the teams by going to assemblies. Gina Amori com- mented, I attend most of the assemblies. Even though it was their first year, the majority of students in the class of ' 86 were spirited Spartans.

Laura played volleyball and basketball on the varsi- ty teams which is a unique accomplishment for a ninth grader It took a lot of determination and hard work but Laura was set on making the varsity teams. I really wanted to make the varsity teams, especially for basketball, which was her favorite sport. Laura practiced two hours after school and played in two games a week; she also spent a lot of time practicing on her own. I went to the courts and practiced on my own trying to improve a little more each time. At first, Laura received ridicule from her teammates. I used to hear plenty of freshman jokes. After a while, when her teammates realized her playing skills, they considered her just another member of the team. I never let my attitude get me down, I went out and showed them how I could play. Laura proved to be an excellent player and she looks forward to wearing the Spartan ' s uniform another three years.

They ' re astute and very alert, explained Mr. Jerold Siperstein, Algebra I teacher. Mr. Siperstein has taught freshmen for about ten years out of the 24 he ' s been teaching. This year he had two classes of Algebra I in which there were about 65 freshmen. He felt freshmen lacked a certain amount of commitment towards their academic classes, but still they were very normal. In the Algebra 1 classes, he taught how to solve problems with algebraic expressions. He also taught them the basic algebra fundamentals. I enjoy teaching freshmen because it gives me a break from the rigors of chemistry, said Mr. Siperstein. Though they were not as mature as juniors and seniors, Mr. Siperstein felt that they listened to him when he talked.

They were found involved in sports, music, drama, clubs, speech and debate, business education, and leadership. Take, for example, drama. There were three freshmen in- volved in acting, writing plays, making up commercials, doing mirror images, and improvising. All three agreed that they were treated as just a part of the gang, and were glad that they got involved in their first year of high school. Speech and debate was challenging for freshman Diane Bryant. Even though she had to work twice as hard to unders- tand the level of thinking for speech and debate, she enjoyed it and thought it was fun. She felt that more freshmen should be involved in speech and debate because speech and debate gives one no time to be shy, which helps in other classes. There were two freshmen on the girl ' s varsity basketball team this year. Besides Laura Beeman, there was Diane Roberts, who was very excited to make the team. After four years of playing basketball, Diane Roberts came to San Gorgonio and tried out for the basketball team. To her surprise she made the varsity team. She had fears of being treated dif- ferently because she was a freshman, but after meeting all the other team members everything fell into place. Diane is hoping to be a four-year-member of the girl ' s varsity team. Freshmen were involved in many activities throughout the year even though it was difficult for them to find time to do their studies. a OH ) 1 0$ II fjj Below: Involved Spartans are freshr Kendra Boyd.

Throughout the school day he taught three periods of English 1A and B, and two periods of English 1C, a college preparatory class. I ' ve always admired the way he has been able to work with freshmen, since they are the most difficult class to handle, commented Mr. McPeck head of the English department. In his English 1C class, Mr. Olyer focused mainly on teaching Mythology. Reading the Odyssey and a book on mythology was the class ' main assignments. In college, Mr. Olyer studied English, philosophy, and music. He graduated from Loyola University. Mr. Olyer continued studying music in Salzburg, Austria; he attended Mozarteurn School of Music where he received an honorary certificate in performance for playing the piano. During the summer, Mr. Olyer spent time studying aboard ship while touring the Greek Islands. Mr. Olyer enjoys music, playing the piano, and oil painting.

Ap- proximately 140 students were enrolled in her English 1C classes, which were college preparatory classes. The classes were a double block period joined with Mrs. Ellison ' s world geography class. If a student wished to enroll in either class, he had to take both classes. Mrs. Cassleman ' s English class focused mainly on literature. Many books were read such as The Good Earth, Tale of Two Cities, and Mysterious Island. A brief time was spent studying mythology. Reading short stories was another assignment, I enjoyed reading the short stories because they were interesting, commented freshman Charles Eastwood. The double block classes of Mrs. Cassleman and Mrs. Ellison were very popular and successful. I really like the double block system, ' ' commented Kristi Schafer, a freshman.

The label was little brother or sister because they had an older brother or sister attending San G. One example was Jeff Spurgeon, a ninth grader, whose older siste r, Candi Spurgeon, was a sophomore. Everbody knew me as Candi ' s little brother, was one of Jeff ' s complaints. Candi felt that having a younger brother attending the same school was a disadvantage. He knows about everything I do or don ' t do, commented Candi. Many people compared kids in the same family. Gabriel Her- nandez was no exception. However, freshman Gabriel didn ' t mind being compared to his sister Anna Hernandez. I feel good about being compared with my sister because it helps me set higher goals for myself, said Gabriel. When walking down the hallways, Spartans could always find freshman sisters Eric and Theandrea Sams together. At first glance one thought that they were seeing double but they realized that the two girls were identical twins. Theandrea was the oldest but only by 15 minutes. There were some advan- tages to being a twin. People think they are talking to my sister, Theandrea, when they are talking to me. That ' s how I learned about all her secrets, commented Erica. Overall being labeled younger didn ' t bother anybody. The main reason was that they realized that soon their older brother or sister would graduate and they wouldn ' t be labeled anymore.

Right: During lunch, Interact club advisers Mr. Bianchi and Mrs. Miller talk with Interact guest, Coach Stockham and adviser Mr. Willen at a pizza party thrown by the club to welcome visiting Japanese students. Section organizer: Kathy Lockley Each year the faculty and staff of- fered their encouragement and assistance in some way to the students of San Gorgonio. The principal, counselors, secretaries, and many others led the way for students who were going through what was called the best years of their lives. Many staff members got into the act at school and became involved with ac- tivities such as dressing up on Hallo- ween and participating in ICC day. Not only did teachers and others do their jobs, they also had extracurricular ac- tivities such as advising clubs, coaching sports or sponsoring classes to attend to. Mr. Willen, one of the club advisers for Interact, used ex-President Ken- nedy ' s words to describe the way he felt the students should view their clubs. Don ' t ask what the club can do for you, but what you can do for the club. ' ' Many teachers felt that students should participate in school activities. Such staff members as Mr. Shepherd, Mrs. Casselman, Mr. Satterfield, Mr. Betty, Mrs. Noakes, Miss DeWalle, and Mr. Taylor dressed up for Halloween to show their school spirit. Setting examples and giving advice were needed to help students succeed in life and at school. Each staff member had some way of playing a part in the education and involvement of the school. Mr. McNeal, teacher of science commented, One thing that is lacking in students is curiosity. I would like to set an example for them to be curious about the world. Being a curious person myself, I would like to see greater curiosity in my students. Mr. Bernardy, teacher of driver education said, As I teach driver train- ing, I always try to set a good example by using seatbelts in the car. I also try to be courteous to the students. Encouragement and knowing you can do the best was what Mr. Jones, Vice Principal, referred to when he said, Each student can obtain maximum achievement according to one ' s best ability, academically, athletically, and socially. To do that, students must ex- ert maximum efforts throughout all these areas. Leading the way in hope that students would endure and prevail, was what the staff was here for. leads the way Above: Onlookers at the Halloween assembly are reminded by Mr. Betty to attend the varsity football game that night against Redlands.

The reason for these changes was probably that there was a new principal, Mr. Philip Haley. Mr. Haley was not a newcomer to San G; he had been vice prin- cipal for five years here before being transferred to San Bernar- dino High, where he was vice principal and then to San Andreas to be principal. With surroundings so familiar to him, Mr. Haley felt that returning to San G is like returning home. Putting students as his number one priority, Mr. Haley had ideas to make the campus run smoothly; students would be in class and not running around or off campus truant, he would con- tinue to support and modify the curriculum so San G had the strongest instructional program in the city, he would provide a safe campus for all students, and instill a program of self pride among the student body so the campus would be attractive. Mr. Haley felt this would work because San G has an outstanding student body. He also commented that the staff was the finest in th e city and or county. Among his many achievements, Mr. Haley started a parent communication group to improve community relations between the parents and the school. He was also interested in working with other staff members in developing a plan for ninth and tenth grade students to improve their attendance. This would cut down on the number of transfers to Sierra High School. Mr. Haley commented that students were his number one priority, and this was evident by the many ways he set out to im- prove San G and the enthusiasm he displayed at his job.

Below Right: In his office, Mr Haley takes time to listen to questions and problems that students and parents Mr. Paul Haley Principal 300 faculty There was a new disciplinary program instated at San G. The program was called On Campus Suspension or OCS for short. The program was introduced by Vice Principal, Mrs. Brickley. The purpose of this new program was to eliminate truancies, tardiness, and the loitering on campus grounds during school hours. The program consisted of one teacher volunteering to remain in D -5 during his or her conference period. All students caught in the halls without a pass during class time were immediately taken to the suspension room. A first offense would usually only get the student there for a single period; a second offense two days, third of- fense a week; and so on. The OCS program was run with a firm hand. There was no room for explanations or leniency. The administrative branch was quite serious about this program. Students and teachers alike, soon found this out. The program was needed to replace the PASS program of last year. The PASS program was discontinued due to lack of funds and lack of effectiveness. The OCS program had been tried at other high schools in this area, such as San Bernardino High School. The program was no longer in effect at San Berdo High due to lack of effectiveness. Perhaps with the strict enforcement on the San G campus it might be a success. The program was expected to continue next year if the effectiveness was proven. Overall, the program was expected to be a suc- cess. Most teachers agreed that it was a necessary step for disciplinary problems. The administrative branch hoped that with the cooperation of students and teachers the program would continue with suc- cess and rid the school of its trouble makers.

I hate it, added another junior Cheryl Opperman. What these students were talking about was the ap- parently unnecessary disuse of the school ' s street lockers. Mr. Doug Stockham explained that the approx- imately 2500 lockers were shut due to lack of school funds. Many students have asked, How much money does it take to keep a few lockers opened?! According to ASB President Frank Havemann, it costs $32,000 annually to keep up the lockers. To fix one locker door, the cost is $38. Due to the lockers being closed, many students could be seen carrying backpacks and tote bags during school. Junior Jane Singer stated how many of the students felt when she said, It ' s too much trouble to carry your books from class to class and during lunch. For sophomore Stephanie Roehler, open- ing the lockers back up is the only way to end the pain of carrying heavy backpacks. Teachers issued fewer books because students no longer had lockers. Ms. Bar- bara Hagerman, English teacher, was one of many who kept textbooks in class to lighten the load.

Mr. Charles Brame Social Studies Ms Elaine Carman Physical Education Mr Ralph Carter Special Education Diverse teacher loves the classroom Showcase As well as teaching for the last twenty-five years, Mrs. Elka Ellison has had a very in- teresting background. Born in Wilno, Litthuania, Mrs. Ellison graduated from high school and then went to Rome, Italy where she studied fine arts and philosophy at the university. Upon graduation, she taught there for a few years. When the Allied Forces entered Italy, she went to work for the American Red Cross and then the International Refugee Organiza- tion. In Rome, her job was to help in their settlement of displaced persons to countries outside Europe away from the war memories. By being able to speak several languages, I could deal with many refugees from different countries. Mrs. Ellison decided to immigrate to the United States in 1950, I was very curious about the New World, She lived in the East for awhile and then soon came to California. She taught in Rialto Junior High and Pacific High School, which was a worthwhile ex- perience for her. At San G. Mrs. Ellison has worked with a sophomores four discipline Humanities pro- gram, and currently she has shared a two hour ninth grade college preparatory class with Mrs. Casselman in English and geography. Mrs. Ellison also has been teaching a Western Civilization, or European History Advanced Placement class for seniors. Her hobbies and interests consist of travel- ing, reading, theatre, and live classical music. Traveling in Meditteranean area has been a learning experience for her. I learn many things before the trip, during, and especially afterwards. Retiring is far from Mrs. Ellison ' s mind at this moment. She likes to teach and loves the classroom situation. I think San Gorgonio was fortunate to have very fine principals and a talented staff. Many San G. graduates are grateful they had a worth- while high school experience.

A number of students were familiar with Ms Lawrence, the teacher of earthguake science and ad- vanced psychology. But what makes her so interesting is what she does out of the classroom. She was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, and has lived in San Bernardino for 27 years. Ms. Lawrence said that she moved to San Bernardino because it was in the middle of everything. As well as teaching, Ms. Lawrence has been in the Air Force during the time of World War II, and also a ski patrol member Many of her pictures have been entered in the Orange Show International Photo Competition, where she has received many honorable mentions. Three Nikons, a Mamiya, and an Olympus are a few of the many cameras she owns. Another facinating hobby that Ms. Lawrence has is traveling. She has traveled around the world twice and has gone to China and Tibet. Her future plans include a trip all over Asia. Photography plays a big part in her trips. She takes at least 2,000 pictures during one trip. Ms. Lawrence is very interested in the culture, arts, and the people of each country. One of her favorite tries that she likes to visit is Nepal. Excitement is always part of her adventures. Once she was charged by an elephant, a rhino, and held by Arabs. Ms. Lawrence has many other hobbies, which include climbing the Rocky Mountains and the Sierra Nevadas. Sometimes if she is not on the go, she can be found at her home weaving, woodworking, or sewing, with her cat and dogs by her side.

You meet a lot of nice people. Mr. Fred Plimley likes to square dance in addition to teaching algebra and trigonometry at San G. He has been square dancing now for about four years, but first got started in high school. Mr. Plimley was born in Detroit, Michigan and received his teaching credential at the University of Redlands. He had always liked school and the learning atmosphere. I always liked learning and I kind of just thought I ' d continue. I like working with people. ' ' Working with people and square dancing are two of Mr. Plimley ' s main hobbies. The main places in town to square dance are Pro menade Hall and Squaredance Land. Many different dance clubs offer different oppor- tunities. Mr. Plimley belongs to the Highlander ' s club which meets on Saturdays at Squaredance Land. What kind of people square dance? Most people who square dance are either middle aged or older. Usually couples or singles dance on separate nights. People should wear western type clothing and know some of the different pattes calls ' ' or oing calls that the caller may choose to call. Mr. Plimley recommends that people in- terested in square dancing should start tak ing classes at a dance hall. Classes usually are 30 weeks long and differ according to skill levels. A person is usually not allowed to join a dance club until he has completed a certain amount of courses. After a person reaches club level he may join a club and the fun begins. These are usually more classes a square dancer can take if he wants to increase his skill even more. Square dancing has changed a lot since the years when Mr. Plimley was in high school. But it still remains a great way to mingle with people. Grab your cowboy hat and skip your troubles away.

A waste of valuable time and energy; orgy of frustra- tion. That was Mrs. Ruby Watson ' s definition of registration. Scheduling was held on September 9 and 10 in the cafeteria. Teachers, counselors, security guards, and vice principals spent four hours each day admitting students into the cafeteria to sign into their classes. Those undecided were assisted by counselors, teachers, and student council representatives. Other faculty members had their views of registration also. Some, like Mr. Ed Lowe, ex- pressed dissatisfaction with the classes offered. Running for classes is a good idea but we ' re try- ing to give students a choice of classes and there really isn ' t much choice. We offer English 1, 2, 3, 4. What choice is that? There aren ' t many elec- fives either. For some, registration brought about new classes to teach. Two teachers who formerly taught English, Mrs. Cathy Hatch and Mrs. Marilyn Sabens, were now teaching Spanish. Mrs. Hatch stated that it ' s something she wanted to do for a long time and she is really excited about it. Security guard Austin Pulliams played an im- portant role in registration. He checked students ' numbers making sure they registered at the right time. All in all most faculty members were looking forward to the new school year. It ' s great to be back.

The athletic department relied on their patience and perseverance. Coach Lees who coached swimming and water polo liked to coach because it gave him a chance to develop friendship between students. I especially enjoy coaching because it gives you a chance to know students better. Coach Edgett, San G. ' s girls tennis coach, liked coaching because she liked sports. You ' re dealing with advanced kids so it ' s a little more satisfying. Football coach Duncanson liked the enjoyment of it as well as the great feeling of winning. I just enjoy working with a sport that I played in school. It is important that you go after every game as if you ' re going to win. Winning was important but it wouldn ' t be nearly as much fun without the excellent coaching staff that San G. had. What was the key to winning? Coach Duncanson thought it was the part of the in- dividual that counted. I expected the individual on the team to play as a team member and to give it his best shot all the way.

Mr. Gene Bianchi Counselor 314 faculty Mrs Adelaide Mendez Counselor Mr Harry C Page Counselor Students came across many problems in high school, and with that came the job of the counselors. Counselors were found in every high school with the determination of helping students. They counseled with students concerning gradua- tion, career goals, making adjustments of classes and new teachers, preparations for college scholarships and many other things. There were six counselors at San Gorgonio who spoke to at least 120 students a day. They each had a department which helped students in every way. Mr. Denton, head counselor, took care of students with last names A-COO; Mrs. Mendez, community scholarships last names COP G; Mr. Bianchi, state and federal grants, names H-LEV; Mr. Truss, community resources, and those students with last names LEW-PAN; Miss Wallace, proficiency tests, names PAR-SIM; and Mr. Page, col- lege scholarships, and names SIN-Z. Besides scheduling with students, the counselors helped with personal problems. It was the counselor ' s duty to make sure the students got help and advice when they asked about future plans. A typical day for a counselor was making referrals, seeing new students, scheduling and advising for colleges and careers. On each Friday, counselors met in room A- 14 and planned the counseling schedule for the week and updated each other on things that were happening. Students saw their counselors three times a year. Many questions could be answered and problems solved by taking a few minutes to make a counselors appointment. The counselors wanted to see their students succeed.

When one goes into the office to see the school nurse, they end up seeing a secretary. Now. how much does a se cretary know about nurs- ing. She has been hired for her secretarial skills. Why did this always happen? Well, San G. ' s nurse was only here once a week to give eye tests, hearing tests and whatever else was needed to be done for students, here at San G. Sandie Lorentio was the school nurse for all the high schools in the district. She went to each high school once a day each week. If there was an emergency here, a secretary called San- die on a walkie-talkie. Sandie then came right over, and took care of who ever needed the medical attention. If the situation was real trouble, then the school called the paramedics. The students who received eye and hearing tests, were usually picked at random. Parents and teachers also recom- mended an eye or hearing test, if they felt the student needed it. The secretary also provided the assistance of helping students who had headaches or stomachaches. If this happen- ed, all that would be done was to lie on a cot in the backroom and miss a class. The school wasn ' t licensed to give an aspirin out. It was a state law that a student could not get any kind of medication from the school. If a student needed to take medication, he could leave it with the secretary, then return to take it. Most students usually take their medicine on their own, replied a secretary, who did this job.

The secretaries at San Qorgonio. Although not always noticed by students on campus, they played an important role in maintaining the high standards that San G. was noted for. Among the secretaries at school was Kate Lawrence, whose main job was to screen telephone calls and ar- range for substitutes. Why was she a secretary? Because it ' s what I know how to do. Linda Tomas was another such person at school who kept things in order. I enjoy working with the students. She sold annuals and ASB cards and attended school in her spare time. She hoped to acquire a Bachelor of Arts degree in accounting. In the health room, one could find Sarah Sayre who entered new students ' names into the computer and took care of sick or injured students. She also handled emergency phone calls to the paramedics and hospital. Denise Folgner took care of call slips, suspensions, ex- pulsions, and master schedules. In her spare time she lik- ed to garden, do needlepoint, cook, and play bridge. I went to work for the schools in 1947 and I haven ' t been out since. Among the other secretaries at San G. were Patricia Cotter who worked the switchboard and was the voice of the daily bulletins; Marlene Garot vice principal ' s secretary whose backward writing made the OCS list more interesting to read; Debbie McGarry, who took ap pointments for the counselors; and Becki Savage who was ready with transcripts and records for all students. All secretaries had to take a written test and have some prior work experience to be considered for employ ment at city schools. The clerical staff usually held a bir- thday party every quarter at someone ' s house to celebrate birthdays. The party included a potluck dinner, as well as, the entire clerical staff of San G. Parties were one way secretaries took time off from all the work they had to do to keep a complicated network running smoothly.

The number one news story that appeared daily in the news headlines was the American economy with its unemploy ment and high interest rates affecting Americans. Americans also felt the attempts of the tax program and the effects to reduce inflation by President Ronald Reagan. On January 6, 1983, President Reagan sign- ed into law a bill which would add a five cents tax per gallon on gasoline. This extra revenue was to be used to improve the nation ' s roads and mass transit systems. Gasoline prices ranged from $1.00- $ 1 .50 per gallon, depending on type of fuel and location of station. The second top news story was the ordeal of seven people who died in the Chicago area, when they took cyanide-laced Tylenol capsules. The most important and terrible occurrence was the attempt at copy- ing the cyanide-laced capsules. The manufacturers of Tylenol, Anacin and other over-the-counter drugs were forced to design safety seals for all their products. War and its problems concerning the countries was the next top story that many people read in the daily newspaper. The Middle East had a great deal to do with the news. They included the Israel PLO war in Lebanon and massacre of civilians in Beirut refugee camps. Many Americans also became aware of the war over control of the Falklands by Argentina and Great Britain. England ' s Prince Andrew was an individual who was watched by the media during his participa- tion as a soldier in the war. Stories leading to deaths and attempts made on lives made top coverage in the news. In the Soviet Union, people were shocked by the death of their President Leonid Brezhnev. The U.S. was luckier as President Reagan recovered from a gunshot wound when John Hinkley Jr. fired as the President left a Washington hotel. Acquitted by reason of insanity, Hinkley was sent to a mental hospital instead of prison. Another headline that received coverage was when Poland ' s Lech Walesa, solidarity leader, was freed by Poland ' s military. Riots started, and a military rule was imposed, with curfews and rationing becoming a way of life. Another story was the U.S. Congressional election which elected Republican George Dukemajein as Governor of California and former San Diego mayor Pete Wilson as California ' s new senator. Finally, the terrible crash of a jetliner in Washington shocked Americans as they watched survivors swim to safety in the icy, Potomac River. The uncertain future of the U.S. Social Security system worried many Americans and President Reagan organized a new department to look into the future of social security. To Americans and the people in the world, these were only a few stories that were covered. The year nineteen-eighty-two was a year for many news headlines.

The teachers thought of it and the San Gorgonio Staff Club was the end product. Club president Mr. Bohn thought the club was organized for a good cause. It was formed to serve the needs of the staff at San G both certificated and classified. In other words the club raised money for different needs that came up among the teaching and classified staffs at San Gorgonio. These needs included sending flowers to a staff member who had some type of accident or tragedy occur, rais- ing funds for scholarships, and gifts for retiring teachers. A special scholarship was given out by the staff club in remem- brance of Mr. Heggi. The Joe Heggi Scholarship went, during the June awards, to a student who had demonstrated ex- cellence in English. In order to raise enough money to meet all of its needs, the Staff club sponsored a booth at the San Gorgonio carnival, held a staff party and raffle, and a Christmas brunch at Ar- rowhead Country Club. The club emphasized fund raising for scholarship purposes. Staff club officers were Mr. Bohn — president, Mr. Schultz — vice president, Mrs. Donahue — secretary and treasurer, and Mrs. Miller — Social Chairman. These teachers were also on a staff Memorial Scholarship Board to dedicate scholar- ships to teachers who had passed away. Other teachers helped in the selection of the Joe Heggi Scholarship student.

Mr. Vizard, a teacher of biology and in- troductory chemistry classes was a close friend of his. Mr. Heggi demonstrated great concern for his pupil ' s education. Many hours were spent after school working with students on any particular problems they may have had, or just talking. Other than teaching, Mr. Heggi had several outside interests. He liked paintings and ceramics, as well as photography. A schnauzer named Jason occupied his life at home. Mr. Heggi ' s love of teaching was evi dent, for at night he taught English at Craf • ton Hill Junior College. Born and raised in Indiana, this popular teacher attended both Ball State in Muncie, Indiana, and Indiana University before travel- ing to California. Here in California, Mr. Heggi attended many colleges and univer- sities, including UCLA, UCR, Redlands University, and Cal State, San Bernardino. In the process he earned both his bachelor of arts degree and his master ' s. Although he was a fine English teacher, it is evident that his warm personality and ac tions made Mr. Heggi as popular as he was. He will be remembered not only for his teaching, but for the concern he expressed for his students. Cheryl Provence, class of ' 83 Mr. Joe Heggi Mrs. Luciana Johnson Mr. Heggi was not only a good teacher, but a good friend as well. This sentiment was expressed by junior Rhonda Walbaum, and echoed by the vast majority of San G ' s students. On September 1, Joe Heggi, a long-time English teacher, had a heart at- tack which took his life. Since the school ' s opening in 1965, Mr. Heggi had taught English, then later English 2C. John McPeck, English Department Chairman declared, Mr. Heggi was one of our best English teachers and he will be sorely missed. Probably accounting for this teacher ' s popularity was the fact that he cared so deeply about his students. As proof of his love for kids, dozens of baby pictures dotted the walls of his classroom. He liked his students and was well liked by them too, noted Larry Vizard. Everybody here should have known Mrs. Johnson. She was an intellectual person, said Mrs. E. Ellison, a social studies teacher at San Gorgonio. Mrs. Luciana Johnson, a U.S. history teacher at San G. passed away this summer after a long battle with cancer. Mrs. Johnson had taught U.S. history at San G. since 1965. She was remembered by all for her very high standards in the classroom. Former student, Ken Soto, who was now a teacher at Pacific High School com- mented, I liked her lectures. She knew her subject and really got involved in her classes. Mrs. Johnson was born in Italy, married an American gentleman, then moved to the United States. Together they had two sons and one daughter. She went to the University of Califor-.!i), Riverside, where she received her Bachelor of Arts degree. Then she went on to Clare- mont graduate school to complete her education. Mrs. Johnson will be remembered by students and the staff of San G. for her dedication and compassion in the field of education.

Before going on an expedition, one must check his gear to assure that everything needed is there and obtain the missing items. Having the right equipment consisting of comfortable boots, appropriate clothing, rope, hooks, goggles, and other necessities guarantees a successful climb without injuries. Sometimes the equipment is double checked and tested, making sure the gear is in top notch condition. The same must be done before com- mencing to labor on the yearbook. Staff members cannot neglect starting from the bottom in order to work their way upward and selling ads was step one. After they were congratulated on being chosen for the expedition team, they were given ad folders and instructions. This supplied the equipment consisting of: a map, receipts, a checklist, names of last year ' s supporters, a price sheet, and order forms. Everything would then be in top condition if everyone was able to meet their $200.00 quota and the climb could get on its way. This money was used as payment for color pages, spot color, cover pages, and other bonuses, once the journey started. Each member was restricted to cer- tain areas of San Bernardino Highland vicinity marked on their maps. Some worked with partners to accomplish the task. The climbers spent their summer vacation going to businesses in their boundaries, but it appeared they were stuck in the valley, and the climb would never begin. Since the economy was in slump, business was slow and a typical response was, Sorry, we can- not afford the ad this year, but come back next year. Your basic gear may not be designer names, brand new, or even the latest fad, but that is no reason to forfeit the plan. The dedicated crew kept striving to confront their schedule and most did before the last deadline on November 17 By calling to make arrangements and driving over to have the order forms filled with the collection of money, these members struggled and found their customers. The ads supported the yearbook and assisted its crew in earning a preferable grade for the class. Ads did their job by reaching the public to increase business sales which would assist the next ex- pedition team. This was similar to sizing up which side of the mountain to ap- proach instead of climbing without knowledge of the mountain. Advertisers were given a choice on the arrangement of the ad and any artwork they needed to include. Then the advertising editors conveyed the finishing touches such as letter type size, photos, and artwork. When everything was accomplished in- cluding the completion of repairs on the equipment, the initial step could be taken for the climb. Since the preparation was finished, the expedition team was hard at work on the upward bound journey. Their goal was to reach the peak without ac- cidents, injuries, or mistakes and rejoice when they tasted victory. supplies the gear Above: As a grade for Mr. Fotia ' s ceramic class, students must complete a clay sculpture of an animal.

Lord West and After Six In Stock i28 advertising What were the new shoe styles that carried us to the top? Styles of shoes varied widely from the basic tennis shoe to the far out punk styles. It was hard to say what style was in. Anything that fitted one ' s taste seemed to be in. A popular comeback from the fifties was the oxblood penny loafer. Many a student was seen walking about with the customary two pennies stuck in the bindings at the top of the shoe. There was a wide popularity for Vans, a deck shoe made by a corporation called Off the Wall. Many students brought about originality and custom made Vans. There were some wild designs, which ranged from psychedelic pastels to black and white checks. There was no one particular place to shop for shoes. It all depended upon the type of shoe and personal taste. There were countless shoe stores in town where students shopped. But some students who were particularly interested in the new wave styles ventured as far as Los Angeles to find the right shoes for themselves. The money spent on shoes also fluctuated greatly. Students were paying anywhere from $6.99 for the K-Mart specials to $80.00 for the same thing only with someone ' s designer label on them. Students were not only looking for shoe styles but also lace styles. There was an enormous amount of crazy shoe lace styles. One could find on laces the Izod alligator, ice cream cones, and balloons. These were just a few popular designs. But no matter what kind of design, there seemed to be no limit to what students bought to put a little style into walking.

Students came to school draped in the current garb, and the competition to possess the best clothes was fierce, especially among the girls. The freshmen and sophomores were among the best dressed because they tried to impress the guys. The more mature junior and senior women were rewarded with worse dressed, because they could care less about the boys ' opinions. Their main concern was keeping up their grades, their jobs, and fretting about college. To every rule there was an exception and each class had its rule breakers. What was the in look? The preppy, punk, and rockabilly were ex- tremely popular depending on who you were and where your interest lay. Bombarding the shops were narrow, tailored tuxedos complete with the blazer, ruffle shirt, belt sash, pumps, and bow tie of some sort. The length of skirts was short, long, and every distance in be- tween. Red, white, black, gray, and burgundy were the main colors to be dressed in. The craze for the sailor look and metallic items faded making them old news.

For the students there were the video games, the walk-man radio, and numerous electronic video gadgets. Mot only did they benefit from the video era. but so did the faculty There were many computers installed on campus for the use by the faculty such as the computer in the office which recorded all student data, the film projectors, and new audio visual equipment, which was under the supervi sion of the A.V director. A popular new program watched by many students was the audio visual rock station. MTV It could be seen twenty four hours a day on a cable channel. It featured mostly rock and new wave groups As Krista Brown commented, It has some good rock groups and it is great being able to watch them without having to go to their concerts. Another popular piece of audio equipment with the students was the walk man headphones. These were small portable radios with miniature head- phones that anybody could carry in a purse or backpack The quality that most students liked about these radios was the stereo sound effect that one of these little radios could produce The faculty and administration put a ban on these little radios. No one was allowed to listen to one during class time. Even after this order was handed down, one could still find an occasional student sit- ting in the back of a room rocking out to some song. As senior. Dave Sieger, said, You get really bored sometimes and you just want to tune a teacher off.

Although the movie industry faced immense barriers this year, they still managed to produce movies, some of which were successful and others which were total disasters. Since the inven- tion and demand for HBO, Showtime, On TV, and Select TV, movies shown in theaters had to be ex ceptional masterpieces in order to attract the money spending viewers. The biggest box office smash by Steven Spielberg, ET, captured the hearts of millions of movie-goers, young and old. Abandoned on earth, this creature from outer space touched the emo tions of the audience. Since then, fans have eaten up anything with ET on it to the delight of manufacturers. ET phone home and Ouch was heard on high school and elementary campuses. For older viewers, a money-maker was a com edy called Tootsie, starring Dustin Hoffman play ing a female actress Another film, Victor Victoria Andrews portraying starred Julii entertainer. To entertain the more serious population was a movie hit about Mahatma Gandhi, simply called Gandhi. Hollywood never ceased to produce films that claimed to be the scariest and grossest ever Poltergeist was a winner that gave nightmares Usually horror films were disasters and Creep- show and The Thing filled this category hands down. Both received little attention at the box office. After one successful film, why not a sequel ex claimed the film industry. And so came the arrival of Star Trek II, Wrath of Kahn. which sold more than its share of tickets. But sadness was felt over the possible death of Dr Spock. See Star Trek III for the obituary. Following the release of Rocky III, the fans went wild and argued as to whether or not it was better than Rocky I or II. Three sequels, like most se- quels, bombed at theaters and they were Friday the 13th in 3-D. Grease II and Airplane II. Other films attempted to reach a certain age group and were usually mediocre. For the com- puter orientated was Tron released by Walt Disney Productions A film about loose teenagers was the fast moving Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Summer Lovers was an attempt to be a fan- tasy love film, but it did manage to show some beautiful scenery. The Dark Crystal, whose stars were beastly puppets was rather intriguing if the plot was ignored. Those who enjoyed violence could have seen 48 Hours, The Beastmaster, and Frrst Blood. Whatever movie one choose to see. one ex- pected to pay approximately $4.00 and purchase food and drinks at outrageous prices.

Phil Haley, there were many new changes instated Some in which the students were directly affected were the OCS program, the locker closure, and the pool closure Some of these changes were en forced by the board of education in all of the San Bernardino high schools With the exception of the parking lot closure, most of the changes were due to the cut back in district spending At first, the closure of the lockers and pool area were disturbing, but the students adjusted quickly and found replacements for these conve niences. There was a pool sharing program where several schools shared one pool for aqua athletic practices and games The locker situation was easily solved by the modern but somewhat inconvenience of the backpack. Carrying backpacks from class to class was a somewhat humiliating experience but it was accepted as being a necessary step to take the place of the lockers As one student. Andrea Castellano, ex pressed, It ' s not fair not having a place for our books but we all adjusted . Some of the changes such as the parking lot closure and the locking up of the bicycles were instated for the safety of the property of the students Although students were not too happy about not being able to leave freely during the day, the parking lot was at least free from vandalism during class time. But the biggest change, which would affect the San G campus in the coming years, was the closure of Pacific High School. Students from Pacific would be sent to other district schools, with many coming to San G in the fall of 1983 This decision was made in November of 1982 by the school board San G is expecting a roll increase of approximately 600 students, boosting the enrollment to 2700 Mr Haley projected. It will provide more fine students and fine staff members and possibly more relocateable classrooms.

Two phones are located in the hallway of the A building, while the other two are in front of the office They should be used to make calls for a ride, to call your place of employment or other such urgencies. Using them to call your boyfriend, friend, or other persons for personal conversations is definitely not its purpose. It is apparent that some students are not aware of this fact yet. It is rather annoying when you are waiting your turn in line hoping to make a call before the tardy bell rings between classes or during lunch, and the person on the phone persists to gab. In most cases it is a girl flirting with a boy on the other end, or she may be discussing the latest tragedy on a soap opera with a friend As you hear her giggling, you ferment and your temperature slowly rises. The person on the phone is being selfish, ignorant, and to say the least, extremely rude. What can you do? It is impossible to use the other phones because one is out of order, another has several girls trying to talk to the same person, while the one next to you has more than enough people waiting in line. You politely tap the shoulder of the girl prattling and ask her how long she plans to continue her con- versation Of course, you calmly explain you must call for your ride home. She turns around with a sarcastic response and resumes her conversation. What next? Gettin g into a fist fight over a telephone call is absolutely useless and using vulgar language is not a suitable solution to the situation. By now the tardy bell has rung and you are late to class without making your call. That girl is still chattering, too. Where are the adults who pick up loitering students to in- troduce them to OCS? They have more important things to do, and it is not their duty to oversee the phones. There is nothing much you can do, but this is not a lost cause. These students should be aware of the trouble and anguish they bring to others. They can use public phones off campus or better yet they can use their own home phones for such calls. This should be sufficient notice of their rude conduct, and the rest of the rule abiders should not have to tolerate this nonsense SG, Phone Home Above: Using one of the public telephones, for students, freshman, Olivia Olivarez, talks during her lunch break.

Only one out of every fifty students had part-time, after school jobs. Although with the economic conditions being what they were, an increasing number of students found it necessary to find jobs. Most of the working class consisted of seniors and juniors, with only a small amount of sophomores employed. Most working students enjoyed the money they obtained from working, but all agreed that it was an extra strain to keep up with schoolwork. It was especially difficult for those students with the college bound curriculum. Working students also found that their jobs did not allow them much free time to do the things they wanted to do. As one student, Doug Mit- chell put it, Having a job takes a lot of your time and sometimes your homework never gets done. When you want to go out or do things, it ' s frustrating when you have to work instead. There were also many good aspects involv- ed with working. Most working students felt that having a job was the first step towards in- dependence. As senior Mia Vaughnes said, Sometimes it ' s really a bummer having to go to work after school, but I really feel good about having my own money and knowing I earned it.

The local fast food places were conducting a survey to see who had the best hamburgers. This survey turned into a fast food war. Among the participating stores were MacDonalds, Burger King, and Wendy ' s. Student from San G. seemed to prefer Burger King from all others. As James Curran ex- pressed, Their best ploy is to let you have your hamburger any way you want it. Not all students shared these feelings some students just like to go there because it was a local lunch hang out. Next in line for popularity was Wendy ' s Old Fashioned Ham- burgers. Although the hamburgers were rated as being very good, their downfall was the price. Many students could not afford their prices on Mom ' s Lunch money. As Jeff Davies commented, I like Wendy ' s hamburgers because they taste better than anyone elses but I can ' t afford to eat there every day. Last and seemingly the least favorite was MacDonalds. The only people who seemed to enjoy MacDonalds were freshmen and sophomores. But they don ' t know any better, anything tastes good after eating campus cafeteria food. On the other hand, the worldly upperclassmen, whose taste buds have experienced many ham- burgers, did not enjoy the atmosphere or food of MacDonalds. There was one exception of senior Larry Richards who commented, I like going to MacDonalds because all the wild women work there. Though no one knew what the official results would be, it seemed that in the students ' opinions, Burger King won hands down.

Love Always, DAD AND MOM Above: The unknown lunch goer chooses Burger King over the competition. advertising 347 It ' ll be all right While the world was concerned about unemploy- ment, nuclear energy, arms control, rising inflation, and Reaganomics students were worried about topics of a more pertinent nature With the daily problems the teenagers faced, it was amazing how cases of ulcers were not widespread. A main crisis was one ' s appearance and the methods they could employ to improve it. To look more sophisticated, some girls would pack on globs of eyeshadow, lipstick, rouge, and mascara. There were problems deciding which outfit to wear since the mini skirt had been worn once already. Everyone had gotten their hair cut in the latest punk styles and bilevel cut, but would it look fabulous on you? Wanting to be admired by their buddies and desired by the female population, a majority of guys attempted to improve their physique by becoming in volved with weight lifting. To be seen in a varsity football jersey or cheerleading uniform was just the ultimate for many. Such heavy decisions caused teens hours of worry and numerous anxiety attacks. Big decisions on who to hang around with or who to go out with boggled the minds of students. If they did not have a girlfriend or a boyfriend this week, some panicked and searched vigorously. Others chose to be seen exclusively with those who were popular hoping some of it might rub off on them. Who could be asked to attend Grad Nite, to go to the Prom, and to walk with for graduation were questions which produced excessive stress. For the more educated students, a grand disaster might be the upcoming exams, term paper deadlines, and report card time. A few took it to the extremes of crying, but most just fretted over how they would ac complish the massive homework tasks. Dear Beth Adams, CONGRATULATIONS! Thank-You for being all that you are.

Tne majority of decisions that directly affected the school, students, and facul- ty were made by the Board of Education. Seven members were first elected by the regular public ejections and then officers were elected by these winners. Those who were chosen for office were President; Mr. Howard Grossman and Vice-President; Mr. Lawrence E Neigel. Also on the board was Mrs. Elisa Diaz, Mr. W. Robert Fawke, Dr. John M. Hatton, Mrs. Shelby Obershaw. and Mrs. Jewell Shelton. The Superintendent of Schools was Mr. Meal Roberts. Being a member was only an extra community job; all the members had their own full time jobs. On the first and third Tuesday of every month, this governing board of the school district had business meetings. These meetings were held at the board room on S Street and began at 5:30 P.M. During the meetings, which were open to the public, they usually commenced with business concerning the schools which included San Gorgonio, Pacific, San Bernardino, and Cajon High Schools. Next on the agenda was the community re quests and complaints allowing the public to voice their opinions. The board was responsible for all the hiring and firing of employees. They had the ability to disapprove or approve requests, make policies, and care for expenditures. Private matters were discussed behind closed doors at another gathering with on- ly board members present. To Patty Muga: We love you and are so proud of you. Always think positive and have faith in yourself and God and you will succeed in all your goals.

Mountain Photo page 1 7 — Don Keep San Gorgonio ' s eighteenth graduating class had. after four years, reached the summit of their high school days. At times it seemed graduation would never come and yet at other times it seemed to be approaching too rapidly. During the last quarter of the year, it finally hit many seniors that they would soon be out on their own and senio ritis set in. For some this proved deadly. The thought of sit- ting in a stuffy classroom all day didn ' t sound half as good as heading for the beach or lake to get some sun. Grades began to suffer because of missed tests and assignments. But, the big day finally arrived and with the help of teachers, counselors, principals, and most important friends, they donned their robes and mortarboards to walk to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance. Now that the seniors have reached the summit, they are ready to climb higher mountains Mr. Philip Haley, principal, said, I would like to personally commend the entire class of eighty-three for their strong academic achievement and a special congratulations to those who participated in, what I term, an outstanding athletic year. Good luck in achieving your future goals. Colophon 0.11 .. Te«i 7522! R«pre«nt« lve: Mn. .
