example of how music can cut across the ethnic and cultural barriers. This group consists ofthe vocal talents of such Eng- lish groups as Duran Duran. Culture Club, Spandau Ballet, Wham and Bananarama as well as other top artists from the British music scene, The sales of this recording have generat- ed over l0 million dollars to help relieve the famine in Ethio- pia. The record is called, Do They Know lt's Christmas? And is an important example of competing groups getting together for a good cause. Music is not just a form of enter- tainment, but is also a definite, positive factor of cooperation and a way to spread the message of peace throughout the world. - Freshman Justin Post gets into the beat ofthings wearing a traditional preppy style outlit. - Strutting her stuff on the dance floor is senior Diane Hornsby. .

One will find one thing that binds to g e t h e r t h e youth of today: Music, Music has a definite influ- ence on the adolescent society of the United States, England and Japan. One aspect of music is the major impact on fashion. Madonna, Michael Jackson. Cyndi Lauper and Prince have all participated in cre- ating new fashion trends. Large amounts of jewelry, colorful tank tops, gloves, neon and lace clothing have all been new styles for teens, influenced mainly by their favorite rock star. Not only is the music itselfan important part of our life, but the actual live performance of the artist can create a delirious effect on thou- sands. Whether it's going to see a four hour Bruce Springsteen concert, paying over forty dollars for a Jacksons and Prince ticket or wait- ing overnight at the ticketron outlet hoping to get a Depeche Mode ticket before there's an- other 13 minute sell out, we all seem to go to the extreme. If one wants to be Mommy's Little Mon- 46 OUTSIDE LIFE stef, Relaxed or a Head Banger, it's the message the particular group brings forth we enjoy. Punk Rock, Heavy Metal and Pop music present in their lyrics what they believe, and this in return influences our way of life and attitude. Unfortunately this brings forth a sense of rivalry and dis agreement among teens and often our world is more isolated and smaller.

N K, There are people who, during the 1984- 85 school year, orga- nized into small and large groups that marched forward to- ward a common goal that may or may not have been reached dur- ing the almost ten months of school that passed. Even more is the fact that some of the people gave their time, effort and re- sources to try and bet- ter themselves and the people within the orga- nization they belonged tO. Their groups set out to help others, maybe provide entertainment for others, or maybe just to have fun. The groups met at lunch time, after school, be- fore school and some- times even on week- ends. What different groups talked about during these meetings is basically unknown, but it is safe to say there was no malicious intent from any of them. The basic age of these people was be- tween I4 and 18, the group more commonly known as high school teenagers. Together they made up a unique combina- tion. It has been said that they performed their tasks at Katella High School in the city of Anaheim. This has been confirmed. An- other thing has been confirmed about these groups. They call themselves by one ba- sic name only. Clubs. ne THE MEMBERS
