The California Junior State seeks to involve and represent students in government. In the early fall, the BHS chapter set up a student interest lobby, Students For Political Action, with James Hawley as President. The chapter has been very active in state and school politics, attending various conven- tions in the Bay Area and sending members to Sacramento to talk with their senators and assembly- men. In the fall the Junior State also polled over 1300 students on political issues, as part of a statewide effort to involve students in politics. Two of the major activities of the year were the lobby ' s efforts to change the way the Junior State platform is drawn up, and its involvement in the Committee on Teacher Incompetence in BHS. The committee was organized by James Hawley and had Brett Waxdeck as president, Caroline Winnett as vice-president, and Kathy Gilbert as treasurer. 0 1

The Ski Club had another successful, fun-filled ski season with few injuries (one being that of Mark Wolfe, who hit a tree). Presidents Barbara Oldeeshaw and Mike Shirley organized a total of three weekend ski trips to Sierra Ski Ranch and Heavenly Valley. The first of the trips took place while the snow was not very deep, but on later trips it was excellent. In fact, it has been the best of recent years for skiing and the slopes were generally crowded. While off the slopes, the club engaged in such mennorable activities as snow fights, relaxing suanas, eating ravenously before the fire, and enjoying the Tahoe Night Life. Accompaning the students through thick and thin was Mr. Lee, its enthusiastic sponser. 1.
