Throughout the history of Bonita Vista High School, the Juniors and Sophomores have been rivals, this year of 1974-75 was no exception. Competition was fierce, enthusiasm was at its peakg their dignity was at stake. The tumult of these emotions was present at the annual sophomore-junior basketball game, where representatives of each class played to the finish. The juniors were victorious in this battle, but the war continued. Peopl Another shortage hit the nation in October, 1974. Thousands more juniors than had been expected wanted to take the PSATXNMSQT test, a preliminary SAT which also qualified high scoring students for scholarships. In Bonita Vista alone, almost 130 students wanted to take the test, and 30 tests had always been sufficient previously. Fortunately, extra tests were available from a private school, so all the B.V. students had the opportunity to take the PSAT. Among the students who took the test, several had outstanding scores, and the class of '76 appeared to be another one of Bonita Vista's promoting classes. Officers Chosen New this year was the election of junior class officers. Judy Hart was selected as president, Lorna Camaisa as vice- president and Nancy Litton as secretary. Throughout the year representing the junior class, these three did their best in organizing class activities and in promoting junior spirit and enthusiasm. Their accomplishments proved that class officers was more than just a title and that junior pride was indeed sky high. Sophomores Jump Into Sportsg Bring Victory To B.V Underclassmen Speak Easy. Many sophomores became involved in the art of speaking at tournaments and festivals this year. Those participating were Paul Backes, Tom Graves, Nina Lococo, Tama Mingo, Alex Myers, Sue Nelson, jim Patten and Tracy Steinwand. They captured many top awards at tournaments such as Holtville and San Diego State. Much time was spent preparing for these events and they did an exceptional job of representing Bonita Vista this year. Sophomores Involved in ASB Eight hard-working sophomores put their ambition to work each semester by being congressmen for the tenth-grade class. These eight congress seats were filled the first semester by Paul Backes, Greg Cameron, Ann Colegrove, Chris Dillon, Alex Myers, Laurie Ostendorf, David Pierangelo and jan Williams. The sophomores were represented by Tom Alexander, Paul Backes, Greg Cameron, Ann Colegrove, Chris Dillon, Alex Myers, Laurie Ostendorf and Bill Schafer during the second semester. All sophomores were encouraged to petition for the vacated congress seats but few did. Those who filled the seats made changes and adjustments for B.V. to make it a better school.
