Todd Broberg Steve L. Brockmeyer Susan Browing After endless rough drafts, sleepless nights, battling the sticky R on the typewriter, Writer ' s Block, and many untold horrors, the writing skills of these three finally paid off. Doug, Margaret, and Lisa and their essays The Lighthouses ' Warning, Under the Ice, and The Center of the Maze, represented LCHS in an essay contest sponsored by The National Council of Teachers of English. Their essays were chosen from a selection written by the students of Junior Honors English, 1982. Essays are sent in from over 18,400 high schools in the United States, Canada, and from American schools abroad. The essays are judged on the depth and quality of the writers ' ideas, the clarity of their essay, and most importantly their power to inform and move their audience. In addition to their essay, Doug, Margaret, and Lisa were re- quired to write on an impromptu theme concerning the import- ance of English in school. On the merit of her two selections, Lisa ' s essay was chosen out of thousands and received one of 876 certificates awarded. La Canada High School was proud to be represented by these three talented writers. Linda J. Buck Jack Burke Steve Burke Matt Burrows Phil Castiglia Janine Marie Cavoto Doug Chapman Michael A.

Deerwester 22 Scott Delcamp Tracy Deliberto Due to the ever present lack of sctiool related acti- vities, this group of students sought refuge in the form of a hacky-sac. Stu King Hacky Kendall originally began playing the game because, as he puts it, I was disappointed that the beautiful island of green- ery in front of our school was going to waste. I origi- nally began doing gymnas- tic routines on the lush turf, but was discouraged by the ever present grass stains on my trousers. I was then turned on to hacky by a friend. Thanks to Stu, the sport has gained a great deal of popularity.
