4' U ' I' S 'Busy hands lead to happy hearts filled with class work and class activities. you saw 326 Freshmen students hurdling to Liberty Union High School? Remember the knee socks and straight will travel through the halls of Liberty and tomorrow the class of 74 will be seen no more. and catch a few fragments of yesterday. The Class of '74 was first led by a woman president, Teresa Graves. Her rookie of- who can still remember the hardships of their first year. Richard Navarro, vice president, Louise Pachaco, secretary, 'and jeff Wheeler, representative were led by first time advisers. Mrs. janette Evans and Mr. Dennis Buckley. They learned 'cake sales, sale of corsages and other money making events by trial-and-error. They found out how to put a float together with an occasional egg or tomato. Their theme, Mats Can't Dig was seen Homecoming night among the other floats. cheers and voices always are in the minds of any freshman who attends his first rally. And always, Homecoming Rally is the loud- jugs are given to the most spirited boy and girl from each class. That year enthusiastic KK Harrison and spirited Burt Broussard most spirited freshmen. f-:Weare sure it is known to all that history is easy to write because the facts are recorded but the facts are only part of yesterday. To cover the excited twinge, the chance of a new beginning and a different atmosphere is only seen in the glow of freshmen. Time flies when new and ex- .citing happenings spring up and now the class of freshmen are budding sophomores. ,V .Homecoming soon was a great experience once the Class of 74 got it together . From raising the most money in the penny drive contest to juggling an egg on a spoon, the sophomore class led the school. They received the most points during Homecoming day which entitled them to the spirit trophy. Later the same, night, the sophs went on to win the float competition with the theme Burn the lndians , breaking the Senior Class record of earning first place. Who can say who should receive credit for the hard work? The new advisers, Mrs. janette Evans and Mr. john Meyer? Or officers Robbie Knight, president, Kyle Ferrill, vice president, Diana Galletti, secretary, Laura Serna, treasurer, or jeff Wheeler, representative? Or a group of hard working enthusiastic students working together, striving for a goal? Many nights were spent at Lynn Wolfe's barn constructing the float. This year no eggs or tomatoes were thrown, only traditional paper flowers along with loyal classmates. Most spirited sophomores in 1971-72 were Rosemary Sciortino and Ed Laremore. . Selling key chains, sponsoring dances and the annual Sophomore Hop were ways the sophomores worked toward their senior year. On May 6, excitement and suspense arose as the climax of the evening arrived when Matt jacobs and Linda McLendon relinquished their crowns to Burt Broussard, king and Diana Galletti, queen. Precious and Few Moments proved to be the appropriate theme for both the couples attending and the king and queen. The four prince runner-ups were Marty Bacigalupi, Mike DePiazza, Kyle Ferrill, and Mike Sanchez. The four princess runner-ups were Lizzie Dominguez, Laura Kaplan, Roseann Sciortino, and Laura Serna, Two years down and two more to go was the count down for the Class of 74 in 1972. Under their new title, they carried out the slogan, Big Bad juniors . For the second consecutive year they managed to capture the over-all spirit trophy of Homecoming. They received first places in the bike race, jello-eating contest, and penny raising contest. Along with this announcement came the spirit jugs, going to juniors Peggy Kelly and Mike DePiazza. Later on that night, it was announced that their float received second place in float competition with the theme, Mug t e Mats . 9 Leading the way for the juniors were Richard Navarro, president, Susan Giannini, vice president, Laura Serna, secretary, Robin Lopez, treas- urer, and Billy Graves, representative. Adding to their success were advisers Mrs. jeanne Glenn and Mr. john Meyer. 'From the spirit-qf'Homecomlng to the softness of a junior Prom,lthe class set Hteltheme, 'Dancingli'n the Moonlight . On April 14 wonderful sounds were heard from the band, Early Morning . Girls looking pretty in their formals and guyso looking istiff and handsomein suits were seen at this special occasion. Beautiful plants borrowed from Norman's Brentwood Nursery decorated the cafeteria. Finishing touches were added to make it a night to remember for ever more. 1973-74 is the year in which this class ventures into the start of new experiences and adventures. Decision making and soul searching were the seniors first task. Deadlines had to be met for colleges and universities in November. How fast the years have gone could be heard down the halls by the seniors. Three years down and one to go was the score. The class set out to make it an unforgettable year. Homecoming was the target, their goal - three years of consecutive winning for the spirit trophy. Hard work and strong leaders accomplished this drive. An example of this loyalty could have been seen at 4:30 a.m., Homecoming Week, on campus. Either an early-bird or a class competitor could catch Rosy Stanton putting up posters for her class. She went on to receive the most spirited senior along with Steve Cruz. Homecoming arrived and worn-out, long-drawn faces of many seniors headed out to Ohmstede field for their last Homecoming of high school. Their spirit and enthusiasm was seen in the out come of the events. Once again they took first in the penny drive, egg race, poster contest, and clash day. These seniors set a new record, receiving the Homecoming trophy three consecutive years. Something new arose from the traditional senior events. A trip to Disneyland on May 31, 1974 was offered to seniors and their dates. Many hard and long hours were put into this new activity. Credit can be given to the senior class officers: Rosemary Sciortino, president, Ed Lare- more, vice president, Susan Giannini, secretary, julia Lasater, treasurer, Anna Loredo, representative, and advisers Mrs. jeanne Glenn and Mr. john Meyer, also the head of the Disneyland committee, Peggy Kelly. Three chartered buses full of excited seniors and their dates traveled to Disneyland on May 31. They left a 2 p.m. Friday and came back 5:30 p.m. Saturday. Grad night at Disneyland was something no one could for- get. 1 The Edgewater Hyatt House was the scene on May 11, 1974 for the Senior Ball. New York steak was the main course with music by Liberty. This was just another special night for the Class of '74 to remember. On june 7, 1974, we saw the seniors march down Ohmstede field for the last time to Band IlI's Pomp and Circumstances. One could catch glimpses of past memories in many senior's eyes. Fragments of yesterday pranced by fast and soon the graduates of the Class of '74 were no longer a part of Liberty. They could be seen being hugged by classmates, friends, and relatives. Following these ceremonies, a traditional grad- uation party was held by the Parents Club. One could not help but think that tonight they are together, but tomorrow this class would not be seen as a whole ever again. Each will venture into a new tomorrow, beginning act three of their lives. Let's catch a look at 73-74's happenings. Can you still see Tony Ball's face with whip cream diligently given to him by Rosemary Sciortino, sen- ior class president? I Homecoming proved what determined juniors they are. Every contest entered was with a strong will and fight. They placed second in float competition with the theme, Shoot 2 Victory . Their officers Tony Ball, president, Paula- Graves, vice president, Roxanne Sciortino, secretary, janet Smith, treasurer, Stella Rios, representative, and advisers Miss Nancy Doi and Mr. Herb Scott contributed much to the long hours spent to make it a successful year. HOn Aggl 6 the class sponsored Pieces of April for the junior Prom. This is just one activity added to the pieces of the puzzle of high school i e at Li rty. Out yelling every class except the team at one rally are the powerful sophomores. The spirit of 76 proved to be strong as they placed second in float competition. Advisers Miss Rita Pirtle and Mr. jerry Black, officers Kathy Serna, president, Lisa Mune, vice president, Terri Tipton, secretary, Lori Mod- rall, treasurer, and julie DeSair, representative decided upon an unusual theme, Grind the Liver-more . This effective theme showed loyal classmates and that the spirit of 76 is alive and well at Liberty. The Class of '77 started the year with many events- orientation, registration, Homecoming, and sports. Neither side swindled, they proved strong as they participated with spirit and enthusiasm in Homecoming. Sports proved strong as the Frosh football team were champions. Helping to make it a year to remember were Andy Hernandez, president, Robert Rameriz, vice president, Rosemarie Martinez, secretary, Stacye Smith, treasurer, and advisers Mrs. Pat Claywell and Mr. Gary Wilson. With such enthusiasm and spirit, Liberty will have loyal support from the Class of '77. Dances, homecoming, spirit, work, enthusiasm and school are all fragments of our memories. None of us will forget when the generator gave out during Homecoming, when our football team tied with the great San Ramon, going to school in the dark, assemblies to get out of class, and plays and concerts to listen and watch. All of these happenings are just a bit of our lives but they will long be in our hearts and memories.
