Computers The second year Computer Club was ad- vised by Mr. Sam Westmoreland. Progress for the Computer Club began later in the year, with the members becoming actively involved in March due to the late delivery of uSoftware . The purpose of the club was to allow students who could not work a Com- puter class into their schedule the hands-on- experience they desired at a more conve- nient time. The Club met in E-l throughout the year. The only expenses were due to the club's purchase of the boxes of Computer paper. - By Kim Affolder G. Kornelle iiii 'i :Q illiii fi M. Lewis g C.

There were over 200 people in- volved, mainly Seniors and Freshmen, who were actively meeting twice ci quarter. This system was more like fun and less like work. The Buddy System has been in existence at Cholla on and off but never such a success as it was this year. It was started by Ms. Clay but Susan Hooper and Kenyon Moe were the one's in charge. It makes school more fun for the students involved because it causes all different types of people to become friends. Senior Buddy, Bianca Gonzales stated, 'xlt's a neat experience to be a Buddy and to help QI the new freshmen. - By Kim Affolder Ray Arrona Stacy Ballah Pamela Becwar David Borquez Donald Bustamante Tommy Leon Carlos Castellanos Ceci Castro Stephanie Codd Lisa Contreras Jennifer Cook Marisa Coronado Curtis Crigger Leslie Crum Sean Cvitkovich Nicole Daigle Jeff Dollar Sandra Dominquez Veronica Esquibel Jeff Fields Shannon Files Anna Flores Steve Flores Jessica Friend Diana Galavez Bianca Gonzalez Yvonne Green Donya Griffin Misty Hack Willie Hess Susan Hooper Sylvia Hoyos Michelle Jones Sue Logan Jay Lopez Kathy Lopez Jacki Luna Barbara Maiors Rene Martinez Debbie Matthews Chris McBride Kenyon Moe Cha-Cha Molina Julie Munoz Evelyn Navarro Lamont Nesbit Lisa Norzagaray Mark Nunez O Clubs Maribel Olivares Madrid Rand John Otten Letly Reyes Kelli Phillips Leila Rico Claudia Portillo

in heavy snow covered fields. l ul have a dream . . . On November 3, 1983 Congress signed into law the first Federal holiday honoring a man who stood for brotherhood, freedom, non-violence, social justice and building a better world through unconditional love. This God-centered citizen gained national prominence with his non-violent leadership during the Montgomery bus boycott and his stand in opposition to the Vietnam War for which black civil rights leaders criticized him. He faced police dogs, fire hoses, exculsion from restaurants, restrooms, hotels, motels, and churches in his march to change customs and deep preiudices. Other nations honored him with the Nobel Peace Prize fSweden, 19641, commemorative postage stamps, ington and Abraham Lincoln, this slain rights leader, who was killed by a sniper's bullet on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Mem- phis on April 4, 1968, has a Federal Holiday in the United States. Eulogies in speeches, services, parades and marches were held around the nation on the third Monday in January. lt took 24 years of lobbying by his widow, representative John Conyers Jr. and Dr. Ralph Abernathy, but church bells finally tolled, gospel music and ballads filled the air in Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadephia, Selma Montgomery and Atlanta. Denver spon- sored a dinner for the poor and homeless, while Wisconsinites helped farmers pick corn Over 1,000 Tusconians marched from the University of Arizona through the old court- naming schools, streets, and bridges after him for his struggle for equality in iobs, hous- ing, education, and iustice for all.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of it's creed, we hold these truths to be self- evident, that all men are created equal. - By Tina Cervantez Photo by John Verdugo R fl 4 Q 1 Martin Luther King ..,, Q 495.
