Model United Nations The General Assembly of the United Na- tions declared 1986 as the 'llnternational Year of Peace , on October 24, 1985. While the United Nations performed valuable ser- vices in several fields, anyone who kept up with the news had to admit that it was in the area of peace and security. The Model U.N., a club run by students and faculty at the U of A had about 1,000 students according to Mr. Browning, the club's advisor. The students in the club came from Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah. The special occasion of the year was the two days spent at the U of A. A conference was held and all different committees met to discuss and debate what international problems had been working on. To join the group would be a real learn- ing experience and students get the chance to use their verbal and writing skills in argu- ing the points of view of nations they have just begun to learn about. Mock Trial Case Mock Trial worked on the case of a dis- puted will. lt had two witnesses for the de- fense and two for the plaintiff. They tried the case repeatedly against other teams. ln the Tucson Tournament, Cholla came in third. On the weekend of March 7-8th they contin- ued on to state competitions. The 1986 Mock Trial team consisted of five students which were Tyrone Vincent, La- mont Nesbitt, Chris McBride, J.B. McElfresh, and Kim Apel. The lawyers who helped the team were Edward Nesbitt and Fernando Faiiardo, and the advisor was Towne Bishop. Mock Trial was sponsored by the young law- yers section of the ArizonafAmerican Bar Association. - By Vicky Pillarelli Photo by Ray Manley Studios 8.

This makes the students realize that weddings, large or small, take hard work and lots of preparation. This year's man and wife were Joseph Ortiz and Lupita Alvarez in Mrs. Kirkpatrick's 3rd period and in her 4th period Bill Lopez and Michelle Barbosa. Even though this class is not required, Mrs. Kirkpatrick and most students feel that it should be. f ' l v A lflrfkixxl , , ff, ' ' .xml iitxiv tl',t,y'tf' X 5-?1f.,!',y,Ai 4-it I, 1' wlvfffyy . .

Areas for improv- ment were in curriculum and communications. A board appointed committee for the Office of Civil Rights was established in May 1983 after parents from Tucson and Pueblo filed complaints of inferior education. Cholla is the third minority high school the committee is observing for improving educa- tional offerings for minority students. The committee found that three schools did not have enough electives and advanced classes, and needed support programs to combat high absentee and dropout rates, and recommended the addition of one more assistant principal. - By Tommy Leon and we gave them we can't go anywhere except up in success.
