OFF1CIALLY POSED ... (Sitting) Jon Tiner (President), (Sccond Row) Debbie Haines (Reporter). Pam Netherton (Vice President). (Back Row) Rob Morris (Secretary), Brian Bladc (Treasurer). Drawing The Line Magnet’s version of Youth Arts Council of America (YACA) has always proven itself to be one of the most active organizations on the campus. Mr. Edward Allcn, the YACA sponsor, works his fingers to the bone to lead YACA in bene- fiting the school. A special thing about YACA is that those students who have an in- terest in art, yet don ' t have enough room in their schedule to take art classes get a chance to become in- volved in various art istic activities. This organization ' s main interest is to make the appearance of the school a littlc better. The seniors, with the help of YACA, designed and painted a mural on the once blank cafeteria wall. The mural was designed to signify the individuality of the Class of 1988 as well as the unique qualities our school exhibits. “The white beam of light is our class as freshmen; plain, Basic peo- ple. We entered the pism, or the school, and expanded. We departed as colorful, well-rounded young adults, Jon Tiner, YACA presi¬ dent, explains. In addition to the mural, YACA has participated and aided in many various art showings, contests, and festivals. At the Revel and Art- break, YACA volunteers worked at miscellaneous booths in order to make the world run along smooth- iy- Another YACA activity was the State YACA Convcntion which took place in Alexandria. Art clubs from all over the state gathered to- gether to participate. Each club had to give a demonstration on a new projeci being offered at their school. There were also special din- ners and a dance. “Mr. Allen dressed up like Billy ldol and lip-synced ' Mony, Mony It was hilarious,“ says trip partici¬ pant Pam Britt, “We all had a real- iy good time and met a lot of new people.” So you see, YACA is not just a bunch of artsy people, sitting around painting pictures and mold- ing clay. No siree bob. YACA is much more than that. It ' s a group of people with a common interest who are worried about the appear¬ ance, well-being, and over-all repu- tation of our school. From the con¬ tests they enter, to the displays they host. From the painting of the walls, to the Service work. From the District YACA meetings to the State YACA Convention, Magnet stands out once again as one of the top schools in the state. 1T S NOT JUST A MURAL . Sen¬ ior art students and YACA members work on the mural they designed to leave something behind in their mem- ory. ITS AN ADVENTURE . Greg Jordan climbs to great lengths to add detail to the prism.

RUBBING ELBOWS WITH THE BIG BOVS. David Goldcn, president of the Magnct chapter of FCA, talks with Pat Tilley, FCA rcpresentativc of northem Louisiana, when he visited Magnefs campus in January. en To FCA Under the guidance of sponsor Ms. Monday and president David Gold- en, the FCA, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, had a successful year. As David Golden says, “This was only our second year at Magnet and it was extremely successful.” The other of- ficers of FCA, LeAnn Planchock, Vice-President, Carr Scott, Treasur- er, and Rob Lindsey, Secretary, join together with the other members for success and fun. Every month the club had a break- fast at Centenary and this year an- other one of the club ' s many activi- ties was the Independence Bowl breakfast held at Expo Hali. Mem¬ bers of Magnefs FCA and other schools dined with the players of the Independence Bowl. Another excit- ing event for this year’s FCA mem¬ bers was the chance to participate in the FCA Golf Classic, where football players such as Bryan Henson and Morton Anderson received the chance to test their skill at another game. But breakfasts and golf are not the only sources of motivation for FCA members. Jill Slokes was encouraged to join FCA by the club ' s sponsor Valerie Monday. “It showed me a whole new aspect of high school ath- letics, and gave me a chance to meet lots of others, too” Jill reflects. With the achievements of FCA this year, they have rightfully earned their position at Magnet and hope- fully in future years will continue to strive for many more achievements. FELLOWSHIP AND FUN. Sponsor Mrs. Monday joins in with club members Jill Stokes, Rob Lindsey, Robin Regan, John Hogue, Leanne Planchock, David Golden, and Shelly Shively to decide on their last get-together — a breakfast.
