rite n! Aspiring Writers Put Pen To Paper Assign stories, get stories in, take them to the printer for type set, get copy back and proof read, and do lay-out. Those are the things went into getting the Rampage out to the student body each month. Rampage underwent many changes this past year. The first being a new advisor, Mr. Sandoval. The staff is the paper, said Mr. Sandoval, I am an advisor, they make the decisions. Mr. Sandoval encourages growth within a paper. The paper went to twelve pages and came out with ajanuary edition. More work is involved in going twelve pages and the staff did extra workf' said Theresa Frith, editor. Other changes came in the form of use of pictures and sports coverage. The paper at- tempted to use more big pictures. Thesports section expanded. We have tried to get away from writing just a paragraph on each sport - going for more depth in high inter- est sports, said Andy Clayton, sports writer. The Rampage is an important part of school culture. The feature page is popular, with such highlights as guest columns and Dear joe. My favorite thing is Dearjoe, it's quite humorous, said Tim Kelliher. All of the editors, with the exception of Margaret Underwood, were juniors. Next year's paper will benefit from their exper- iences, as well as from the addition of new staff members. Rampage Staff Front: Andy Dieball, jeff Thomas, Theresa Frith, jeff Courson.

The International Club, sponsored by Mrs. Brown did an assortment of interesting things during the year. One special event was sponsoring a child for Feed the World. They went to a variety of international restaurants such as Don Quixote. They had parties at school where every- one brought a different type of international food. One of the goals for the club was to learn about the different cultures and to discover what it is like to live in a different country. It is really interesting talking to an exchange student be- cause you find out how much you really are alike. said Meredith Hindley, The club is a lot of fun, and teaches people about different coun- tries. By doing different activities and going out to restaurants people really experience what it's like to be in another country. said Paul Baker president of the club, Being in the Science Club is very educational and fun. Some of the interesting things they do is take field trips twice a month, they go to the Botanic Gardens, a nature walk at Chatfield, and the Colorado School of Mines. The group meets every Thursday morning at 7:00 a.m. to learn what science is really about and to really appreciate and observe more of the natu - ral environment. The things that they accomplish for themselves and others are to have fun and to appreciate the science world. Mr. Reed and Mrs. Garwood are the sponsors of Science Club. They feel that having the love of nature, to be curious, and not easily frustrated is what the Science Club is made out of. The International Club enjoys a quick snack before a slide show.

This group, through- out the year not only studied good lit- erature but published the school literary magazine. The students read classics such as 'The Great Gatsby' and Slaughter House 5'. Quality literature and a dynamic per- sonality enable Mrs. Starkey to pull the diverse members of the class together. She added interest to the class with pro- jects like pumpkin Carvings and fable mobiles. All of this inspired the creativ- ity which was needed in publishing the magazine. Part of the CWO class centers around the publication of the literary magazine. The annual magazine is filled with the best work of the students in the class. Freelance authors from the student body are invited to submit their works. They are printed depending upon length, if they are in good taste and as space permits, said Mrs. Starkey. In edi- tion to the written stuff the magazine included artwork and activities. The or- ganization hopes for more parent and Mrs, Starkey attempts to provoke creative thoughts Hom her studetns. .img ar community support in future years. C WO class.
