DREAM OF CASTLES If castles epitomized the pinnacle of success in ancient kingdoms, dreams of castles by Lancers were also aimed at the top. The gamut of dreams ran from the realistic to the fanciful; some dreamt of merely surviv- ing the school year, while others yearned to make it a memorable time by participating in every school event from homecoming to the prom. No matter what the level of in- volvement, every Lancer had a dream. Sophomores pictured themselves as seniors, when they would no longer be the youngest ones on campus. Juniors dreamt of the fun times that lay ahead and took part in extra-curricular activities. Seniors concentrated on that special June day when the culminating event of their school years would occur. Dreams of castles were often dreamt; at LHS they were also often realized. 1, King Arthur ' s carousel provided many dreams of the past for Lancers as they whirled by on their fanciful animals. 2. Lakewood ' s mighty mascot, the famous Lancer, prepared to mount his mystical steed. 3. Disneyland and Sleeping Beauty ' s Castle were the perfect places for John Ridenour and Soo Kwon to begin their voyage through the Magic Kingdom. 4. Excallbur, the legendary sword of ancient times around which so many tales have evolved, was given a stupen- dous tug oy Paula Tokar in her effort to revive a dream from the past. 5. Picturesque castles along any route taken by Lancers were a sight to behold. 6. Varsity Yell was capable of much more than merely dreaming of castles; they could build a beautiful one as well. 7. The great Seal Beach sandcastle spectacular allowed everyone to tour replicas of the world ' s greatest architectural wonders, from Windsor Castle and the Doge ' s Palace, to the Sydney Opera House. 8. A trip to King Putt ' s Kingdom was full of surprises for Amy Harter, Nicki Naylor, Jennifer Foreman, Cathy Heiss and Soo Kwon. 9. Jodi Middleton emphatically expressed the anticipation felt by Paolo Lopez, Jeremy Berryman and Paul Mallari as they entered the small world. 10. A journey into a small world ' impressed upon its participants the variety and richness of the world ' s cultures in a colorful and musical tour.

ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE When it came to strength, endurance, perseverance and capability, Lancers were always in the spotlight. From baseball to weightlifting, from anatomy and physiology to computer mathematics, from orchestra and drama to participating on the LANCE or Citadel staff, Lakewood High School students maintained their eagerness to strive to be the best at whatever endeavor they encountered. Although not every workout, practice or rough draft proved to be exhilarating, long hours of honing skills and practicing each craft proved to be the necessary factor in mak- ing each performance count. One of the primary lessons taught at the school was to keep the desire to succeed going strong, even after graduation. Making the most of every situation was essentia 1. By exhorting each of his students to do his best, Mr. Arbogast hoped to coax Bill Miller into an all- time record bench press. 2. Sailing through the air with the greatest of ease, outstanding basketball star Angie Clark displayed perfect form as she did her lay-up. 3. When the apparatus was stored each day after sixth period workouts, Jenny Gilliland found some of the strangest places to practice her gymnastics skills. 4. High-jumping as both an athletic endeavor and an art form was epitomized by super-star Andre Lacoste. 5. Craig Carter, winner of the 1987 Achievement Award from The Na- tional Council of Teachers of English, freely gave of his time to tutor Lourdes Encinas, Suzy Artinian and Huberto Hernandez. 6. Microscopic organisms and their behavior patterns were no problem for Mike Newton and Jennifer Trierwieler witn the help of the big-wig of the biology department, Mr. Riley. 7. Coach Joe Burza and his faithful companion, Dino, wondered why the baseball team would ever send in a line-up like this one. 8.
