By comparing and contrasting these in- dividual qualities we develop a personal character. There are many aspects involved in the creation of our unique high school community. Guided by the spiritual influence of our principal Rev. Richard Loomis, weekly prayer services brought students together in the eyes and heart of God. The class of ' 85 made their presence felt, cluttering the hallways with endless shrieks of complete confusion. Keeping with tradition, the Senior class imposed its privileges throughout the school year. School rallies presented by the pep squads aroused school spirit which led the Mary Star athletic teams to victory. Beginning its fourth decade as an educational institution, Mary Star of the Sea will continue to enlighten and achieve — elements it will continue to stand for. Hoping that I will always remember all the crazy times we shared.

Joining together in unity and spirit, the Friends of ' 82 begin their senior year. It has been a long journey filled with memorable experiences and lifelong friendships. We have learned to accept each other not only as friends but as individuals. Looking back, we will remember that first year. As Freshmen, we paved the way for our futures. We picked Friends as our name represented by the colors of baby blue and white. As Sophomores, we continued in our studies, strengthening our bonds of love and wisdom. In our Junior year, we sealed this love with the ac- ceptance of a ring, a circle symbolic of lasting unity. With graduation on our minds, the Class of ' 82 looks anticipatingly forward to the events of their Senior year. Homecoming, Senior Color Week, and the Winter Formal have been long awaited and will be long remembered. It is with mixed emotions that we take our leave, but it is time to move on; time to change, for with change, great things will happen.

With the help of our class moderators. Mr. Cottone and Mr. O ' Keefe. we have managed to plow our way through required classes such as Algebra, Biology, Spanish, and the dreaded P.E. We have now advanced into more extensive fields of study: Algebra II. American Literature, and U.S. History. Encouraged by our school counselor, Ms. Rosemary Perry, individuals have developed a high school program to correspond with their future fields of study. Specializ- ed courses other than the stable requirements include clothing, drafting, art, and yearbook. For the more inten- sified student. Math Analysis, Physics, and Chemistry were offered. Engaging in spirit filled activities. Juniors have managed to budget their time, studies, and pressure to get a high grade point average. Mary Star is considered a college preparatory school and for upperclassmen, the em- phasis is on higher education and expansion into diver- sified fields of career opportunities.

The Class of ' 84 had the opportunity to grow and respond to the message of the Gospel in the San Pedro community. The Sophomores strived to create a caring and understanding environment in which each individual could make wise choices for his her life. With the help of Sister Joan O.S.F., Sophomores received the educational background in areas of academics, college choices, and spiritual guidance. Courses in English and Literature, taught by Mr. DiMassa, were available to Sophomores. These courses have specific areas of study, and con- tributed to the broadening of a students ' knowledge and appreciation towards education. Biology and General Science were requirements for all Sophomores. Taught by Mrs. Munoz and Mr. Hallock, these courses provide students with knowledge of all types of living creatures ranging from minute, single celled organisms to homosapiens. The religion curriculum, for this year ' s Sophomores, was one which ex- plored and delved into every aspect of God. Courses such as Church History and Sacraments helped in rounding out their religious training. The Fine and Practical Arts courses, taught by Ms. Elaine Bersano, helped the Sophomores gain fine skills, develop artistic talents and habits which they can use in everyday life. In giving guidance and spiritual aided to the Class of ' 84, Mrs. Tavernier helped Sophomores grow increasingly aware of all phases of life around them, through books and library materials. 1.

A stu- dent in the first year of high school or college. 2. A begin- ner. But according to some freshmen students a freshman means: Just starting out and wanting some of the action. People who range from the age of 14 and 15; a ninth-grader who is always getting picked on by the upperclassmen. The upperclassmen seem to have a dif- ferent view. Some thought of them as being very im- mature, squirelly and a bit naive. Here are a few more up- perclassmen ' s views: A step lower than being a sophomore, two steps less than a junior and terribly far from being a senior. At times, people too. Always picked on for being the youngest. A lost soul in a new world of pep rallies, games, dances and a great deal of homework. In keeping with tradition, FRESHMEN PICK UP CHAIRS. 1-3. Freshmen occupy their leisure time during break and lunch by making new ac- quaintances. Old time elementary school rivals often become the best of friends. 4.

Football, cheerleading, and volleyball practice is underway and summer memories fall into place Veterans of Mary Star are ready to return to familiar cor- ridors, the faces of friends and teachers, new classes but the same lockers, lunches, and laughs. Yet, a new group arrives with a touch more anxiety — the Freshmen are here — rookies, brand new and subject to the tightest scruting; The Freshmen class members engage in exten- sive core-curriculum studies. All ninth graders are re- quired to complete a year of English, Religion, Mathematics, Physical Science, Spanish, French or Latin and a semester of Physical Education and Health or Geography. 1 .

What was not expected was the complete reversal of the up and coming generations. From the silent innocent family style to revolutionary, self-centered love children. Sprawled on this page are some of the people and items that helped to make the 60 ' s what they were! 47 The Seventies — a Return to Normalcy? From Pop Rocks to the music box, sparkling I SURVIVED MILEISUNO water to contaminated, to even green slime For within these ten years new faces and new places arriv- ed along with white collar crime. Well, the sixties closed on schedule and the somber seven ties were on their way. The first years were spent sluggishly straightening out the dings left by the preceeding years. It wasn ' t until the late seventies that sure fads and fashions, along with technology canne to label the seventies as the breakthrough into the new world. Quote of the decade: Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh, Stayin ' Alive Stayin ' Alive! Gee Bees k JERRY DB ' S 4-24-66 CO ' ■° The Eighties, the New Decg ' e 1980 started out with a new president, Ronald Reagan. The new decade is very refreshing compared to the somber seventies. Fashion in the ' 80 ' s changed very much from the ' 70 ' s. Girls were wearing, knickers , mini- skirts , metallic colors, and in ' 80 the western style was hip . Guys wore emblemed polo shirts, short hair, and got rid of their designer jeans. Levi ' s and concert jerseys are timeless. Fads that were mod were, the Rubik ' s cube , video games, jogging, and Sony walkmen. r In 80 ' 81 rock n ' roll proved that it was definitely here to stay. The Rolling Stones asserted themselves again as, The World ' s Greatest Rock n ' Roll Band , with a 40 million dollar tour of the U.S. The Police, Rick James, Go-Go ' s, Pat Benatar, and AC DC emerged as supergroups for the ' 80 ' s. Bruce Springsteen captured the publics imagination as no one had for years, this challenge: dare to be great. And in this new decade we can ex- pect many more trends, public events, fads, and changes in the music we listen to. Below are the results of a poll distributed throughout the Class of 82.

With the Rolling Hills game just hours away the 1981-82 Pep Squads assembl- ed the school together and performed stunts and routines. The long hours of hard work paid off as the squads per- formed magnificently. Competition for the school spirit stick was fierce as the classes tried to outdo one another.

The memb ers of the team were faced with much opposition. Paul Hobus, Craig Johnson, Danny Stevens, and a late surge by Steve Trainotti tried to outwit many competitors, but to no avail. They won two consolation championships in the St. Monica and Hawthrone Tournaments. They ended the entire season with a 8-14 record.

Varsity Regains Championship Form A prosperous preseason and some experienced veterans have the hopes of the Varsity baseball team sky high. A group of experienced seniors led by co-captains John Hussey and Robert Nunez, coupled with the mound skills of Mark Skorlich suggest a strong possibility of a league championship. A well-rounded infield of Joe Cortez, Bob Gonzalez, Jewgy Ponce de Leon, and Hussey will please the defense minded coach Des Walker. The aggressive outfield of Sam Galletti, Richard Castro and Vince Martinez won ' t allow many runners to advance on the basepaths. After a two year hiatus without a title the Stars appear ready to regain their championship form. 1 . Varsity Baseball Team, 2. Oh God. why did I choose this type of job. 116 1.

Sophomores Nick Uruburu, Bob Enciso, Paul Galletti, and Steve Bautista are all up from last years fine Freshmen team and must contribute immediately.

At Mary Star the free-lance Freshman Baseball team has con- stantly provided the JV ' s and Varsity with quality players. This year is no exception. Coaches Ed Nunez, John Bobich, and Joe Aguilera have done a fine job meshing the talents of Gil Marquez, Scott Parham, Anthony Mardesich, John Kielbasa, Jim Bobich, and Bobby Bell into an outstanding unit. 124 Freshman Scott Parham lends his outstanding athletic ability to the mound staff. 1982 Freshmen Team — Top Row: Gilbert Marquez, Jason Packman, Tim Braheem, Doug Cervantes, Jeff Mariani.

This year they broke the record by adding three cheerleaders to make it a ten-girl squad. During the summer months of hard practice, the Varsity squad attended the United Spirit Association CampI in Santa Barbara for four days. For their achievements they were awarded four ribbons of superiority plus a superior trophy. In addition to cheering, the cheerleaders spend many hours making locker decorations, toilet papering houses, and practicing for pep-rallies. For all the activities, the Varsity squad was guided by Varsity Captain Tricial Buzzetti. Moderator for all pep squads is Chris Gayles. 1.
