A .--Q' ...aa wwf PRIDE is what it's all about Pride - we showed it constantly as we cheered our teams in victory and defeat, gave our award-winning band standing ovations following per- formances, and strained our voices trying to help lead our class to victory in a class competition yell. With pride we honored past Home- coming queens as we contemplated playing our last football season on the I-till. National Honor Society members received quiet admiration, sopho- mores proudly wore new class rings, and yearbooks were distributed by a staff proud of its accomplishment. Boosters, groups showed their pride in our efforts and accomplish- ments by honoring us with banquets, trophies and plaques. Members of the community supported us through their faithful purchases of raffle tick- ets, Wildcat shirts, cheese and every- thing else sold by groups to raise money. This was a year in which we showed our pride - and pride is what it's all about.

Mirror shades, or sunglasses, were also popular. Basketball players contin- ued the somewhat strange custom of wearing trunks over longer box- er shorts. Michael Castaneda liked the look because it was com- fortable and looks sloppy. Rolling into style were roller skates and low-rider bicycles while skateboards continued to be popu- lar. Along with bicycling jogging for both exercise and recreation was a health craze among the stu- dents and faculty. 'af'---16 .-.wif -v W.,-.:A QV- ..

Although driving was the easiest and most popular method of trans- portation not everyone owned a car or could afford to drive one Many students found the econom ics of owning a car very rough to handle with the soaring price of gasoline and materials for the car s upkeep High insurance costs also hampered many students who drove to school For those students not fortunate enough to own their own car there were some occasions on which they were allowed to bring the fam ily car. This was much cheaper for the student since the parents paid for the gas and upkeep. On the other hand, some students pre- ferred leaving the driving in the hands of a friend. For the people who lived in the nearby Stargo Area there was an other alternative to driving walk mg Except for the days when the weather was bad many students could be seen hoofnng their way to and from school Last and usually the least popu lar was riding the school bus As Vincent Martinez stated It isnt cool to ride the bus However for many students it was the only choice LOWRIDER VEHICLES are a current p-iv.-Q-....n.--.-.iota-..., mode of transportation Although cars are usually connected with low riding Paul Sierra lowered his truck and added a chain steering wheel and curb finders '- . 7: mm, OLD VEHICLES, such as Coach Chavez's truck, are also popular.

The juniors several hun- dred dollars short of the amount needed to put on the prom planned many last-minute fund- raising events. A spring break early in March gave students and teachers a much needed escape from each other.

Thatcher had wast- ed no time getting on the scoreboard as the Eagles' John Alva ran back the opening kickoff 88 yards for a quick TD. In the third quarter, Thatcher scored from the Morenci three-yard line increasing their lead to 12-O. Defense gave the Cats their first touchdown as Marty Hetrick picked up a Thatcher fumble in the fourth quarter and scampered 57 yards for the Wildcats first TD of the season. Robbie Windsor's PAT was good and Putting fear into the hearts of Wild- cat fans, the Bulldogs scored a quick six in their opening drive. When the Cats first possession failed to produce any yardage, Morenci was forced into a punting situation. Continuing to dominate the game, the Bulldogs blocked the punt and fell on the ball in the end zone for still another quick touchdown. Getting on track offensively, the Cats struck back in the second quar- ter with Fred Rodela's eight-yard run for a dirt, closing the a to 14-7 I3 V Q P - Safford scored once more in the sec- ond quarter giving the Bulldogs a 21- 7 lead going into the locker room at half time. Morenci trailed by only five. With 1:56 left in the game, the Cats drove 74 yards in six plays and scored the winning touchdown on Fred Rodela's three-yard plunge. Rob Windsor theo- rized: The team's intensity level was so high, we couldn't do anything but win in the end. Renewing the Clifton rivalry, the Wildcats then trounced the Trojans, 28-O. The always tough AA Safford Bulldogs were next on the schedule. Following a scoreless third quarter, Morenci cut the deficit to only 7 when Fred Rodela scored on a 15-yard run late in the fourth quarter. The Cats successfully attempted an onside kick and recovered the ball at midfield with one second showing on the clock. A desperation pass by Mike Gojkovich fell incomplete and the Wildcats suffered their first loss of the season. 41 af xiii .Fl 3 A . . ,J -u- 'fu me 5, Q ' .

After running back the second-half kickoff, the Cowboys then added a two-point conversion. The Wildcats scored their only TD of the game in the third quar- ter on a long screen pass from Mike Gojkovich to Bryan Boling. Trying for the two-point conversion, the attempt fell short and the Cats lost their first conference game of the season. Will- cox was the hardest loss to take, said senior lineman Danny Daniels, because we really outplayed them. After losing another hard-fought conference game against San Manuel, the Cats then took on the Miami Van- dals in a must win situation. Mor- enci drew first blood when Bryan Bol- ing scored on an 18-yard touchdown scamper. Miami wasted no time com- ing back, however, scoring on their next possession to tie the game at seven all. The Wildcats were unable to score again whereas Miami added two more touchdowns. The loss elimi- nated any hopes the Cats had of go- ing to the state tournament playoffs. Paced by Fred Rodela's two-yard plunge and Mike Gojkovich's 53-yard breakaway touchdown, the Wildcats led 14-0 after the first quarter of the Sahuarita game. The Cats scored once more in the game when Nathan Wright made a 15-yard reception in the end zone. Leading the game by a comfortable margin, the Wildcats ran the gadget play. At the first signal from the quarterback, the entire line shifted to the sides. One look at the confused faces of the Sahuarita play- ers and the Cats bursts into laughter which prevented them from gaining any yardage on the play. ln Morenci's 27-0 drubbing of the Bisbee Pumas, the Wildcats ran the gadget play again. When the entire line moved, Bisbee jumped offsides and the Cats picked up five yards which was good for the first down. The shut-out against Bisbee was the team's fourth of the season and set a new school record. Senior running back, Bryan Boling, was named to the A South all-confer- ence first team on offense. Boling was also named to the first team defensive unit along with defensive end Robbie Windsor. Adding even further to his honors, Boling was chosen to play in the annual North-South All Star game to be held in August.

Down 14-6 with 9 seconds left on the clock, Marty Martinez caught a 55-yard pass thrown by Angel Rodriguez for the score. Going for the two-point con- version and the tie, the gamble failed and the Cats lost 14-12. Following two more losses at the hands of Douglas and Safford, the Cats appeared to be heading for a dismal season. Getting on track with a win over Bisbee, however, the Wild- cats finished the season with five vic- tories in a row. We felt pretty low after losing our first three games, but Coach Padilla got us all fired up for the rest said defensive guard Clay- ton Flowers. Highlights of the season included Thomas Renteria's 19 carries for 95 yards in the Thatcher game and a total of 201 yards passing by quarter- back Angel Rodriguez in the game against Willcox. Marty Martinez also caught 4 passes in the Willcox game for a total of 170 yards. Martinez end- ed the season with a record-setting 15 receptions for 538 yards. Manny Go- mez was named MVP for the squad. Debuting on the Hill, the fresh- men played Duncan to a tough 6-6 tie. The scoring for both teams came in the first quarter with the rest of the game a tough defensive battle. The squad's first loss of the season, 21-7, came against the tough Safforld Bulldogs. The Cats only score in the game came when Steve Mendoza and Steve Gamblin sacked the quarter- back and Mendoza picked up the fum- ble and ran for a touchdown. Against the Thatcher J .V.'s, Ernie Barquin caught a 40-yard pass thrown by Tomas Borjon and then ran 50 yards for the touchdown. Leonard Morales scored two of the team's.four touchdowns in the Dun- can game. His first touchdown came on an interception return, the second was scored when he picked up a blocked punt by Steve Mendoza and scampered into the end zone. Asked his reaction to playing on the old field, Tony Tedla responded, It felt good because we were the last freshman class to play on the 'Hill. ' Vincent Chavez was chosen MVP.

J.V. 8: FRESHMAN VOLLEYBALL 33 cats revenge black tuesday After losing to the Clifton Trojans last year for the first time in ten years, Morenci sought revenge for what had become known as Black Tuesday. After a close first quarter, the Wild- cats pulled away in the second and went on to win, 82-57. It was good getting revenge after being humiliated down there last year, said a happy Michael Castaneda following the Wildcats convincing victory. Downing the rival Safford Bulldogs in their first game of the year, the young, inexperienced Wildcat squad got off to a promising start under new varsity coach, Mr. Steve Chavez. Up by 12 at half time, the Cats almost let the game slip away by allowing Saf- ford to outscore them, 32-22, in the second half. Keeping their poise, Morenci held on for a two-point victo- ry at the buzzer. Michael Navarrete led the Cats with 11 points. Following an easy win over Dun- can, the Wildcats lost back-to-back home games to Douglas and Thatch- er. The game with the AA Douglas Bulldogs went down to the wire with the Cats finally losing by four. Navar- rete again led the Wildcat's scoring with 14.

Facing the powerful Thatcher Eagles in the final game, the Cats were never close, losing by 27 points at the end. Chosen as members of the all-tourney team were Moren- ci's Michael Navarrete, Steve Sego- via, and Scott Ross. Opening conference play following the holidays, the Wildcats lost to new conference member San Manuel. A third quarter slump in which the Cats were outscored, 25-11, was the de- termining factor. Returning to the Hill, the Cats pulled out a victory in an exciting nip-and-tuck game with the Miami Vandals. Coming off the bench in the fourth quarter, Robert Quiroz sparked the Cats with a criti- cal field goal, two steals, and an im- portant rebound. Scott Ross led the Cat's scoring with 21. One week later Morenci pulled out another big win in a double-overtime contest with the Sahuarita Mustangs. With the score tied 71-71 at the end of regulation time, both teams played a very cautious brand of ball in the first overtime, failing to score any points. Down by one with four sec- onds left in the second overtime, sen- ior Bryan Boling sank a short jumper, giving the Cats a one-point, 78-77, victory. Boling led all scorers with 24 points.

Held in Willcox, the game was necessary to determine which of the two teams would go on to the state tournament as the 42 seed from A-South. After falling behind in the first quarter, the Cats were forced to play catch-up ball the rest of the game. Despite a rally in the third quarter, Morenci was unable to overcome a 21-point deficit and saw its hopes dashed for a trip to the state tourna- ment. Junior guard, Robert Quiroz, was given credit for engineering the Cat's attempted comeback. Robert made two quick steals which he immediate- ly converted into baskets, explained Coach Steve Chavez. He also sparked the team with his assists and was all over the court.

With Felicia Macias, Jo Ann Merino, and Kristy Boling all scoring in double fig- ures, the Cats rolled to a 71-36 victo- ry over Sahuarita. The games with Clifton proved to be the squad's most exciting during the season. Meeting Clifton on the Hill first, the Lady Cats came away with a double-overtime, two-point vic- tory. Felicia Macias was high point girl with 25. A week later, the two teams faced each other again in the EAC Holiday Tournament. This time Clif- ton hung on for a one-point edge. The largest margin of victory went to the Cats when the two teams met in Clif- ton later in the season. Morenci won by nine with Fish Macias pumping in 30 points.

Bounc- ing back, the team then defeated con- ference opponent Sahuarita, 8-3, and once again humiliated the Trojans of Clifton, 10-O. The Cats were unable to defeat either Ray, a conference opponent, or Safford, bringing their record to 8-8 entering the Morenci Lions Invitational Tournament. Rising to the occasion, the Wildcats won the second annual event by de- feating the Thatcher Eagles, 15-1, and the eventual state champion Mi- ami Vandals, 4-2, in the finals. The Cats ended the season on a disappointing note dropping their fi- nal three games of the year. One loss came at the hands of the Safford Bull- dogs.

Another freshman, Manny Gomez, pitched for the J.V.'s all season. Joey Feinstein and Manuel Morales led the young Cats in hits. Four forfeits by oppo- nents shortened the schedule to a mere seven games. Joey Feinstein was named MVP at the annual Spring Sports Banquet. Opening the season against the al- ways tough AA Douglas Bulldogs, the J.V.'s were on top briefly after scor- ing one run in the top of the first. Pitcher Mando Tellez led the defense in the Ray game by striking out 13 Bearcats. The game at Bisbee ended in a tie due to the game being called because of darkness. The game against Sahuarita was our best offen- sive output, said Coach Kinneberg. Mando Tellez went 3 for 4 at bat and stole 5 bases. Altogether, the team had 14 base hits and 13 stolen bases.

The first, held just before the Christmas holidays, featured selections including Shad- ows in the Moonlight, All By My- self, and A Christmas Song. Per- forming in front of an audience was a nerve-racking experience for some members. As Bea Gordon stated, The concerts are spooky, but after awhile you get used to it. Choir members also participated in a music festival and the District Hon- or Choir, both of which were held at Eastern Arizona College. Jazz band members met on their own to prepare for concerts. They also participated in a music festival at NMSU in the spring. Students in con- cert band were challenged by difficult music as they prepared for spring competition. Mona Rodriguez pre- ferred her involvement in jazz band. Explaining why, she said, Jazz band is fun and it's more interesting than concert or marching band because it has less people and better music.

Arriving early for the get- together, the Kirbys found the Syca- more's household in chaos. Before the Kirby family could escape the mass hysteria, three FBI agents en- tered the house and arrested both families on suspicion of trying to blow up the Capitol and Supreme Court buildings. After being released from jail, the two families discovered Alice had broken off her engagement with Tony and was planning to leave town. Mr. Kirby and Tony rushed over to stop Alice and to apologize. All the problems between the two families were finally solved and Alice and Tony reestablished their relationship and planned their marriage. I . 'Q I.

The guests attended afternoon classes with their host stu- dents on November 14. A potluck was held at the Morenci Club that evening after which each student gave a brief talk describing his coun- try. Visiting and host students went on a tour of the mine, concentrator and smelter the next day.

M 3-.Nw A -- ET A.F.S.-67 Boys' State Lives Up to Its Outstanding Reputation Many new ideas and projects were the result of an enthusiastic Student Council. A Miss Merry Christmas queen contest was originated with one candidate chosen from each class. Crowning of the queen, Arlene Vallejo, took place at the Christmas dance sponsored by Student Council in the gym. A costume parade at the football game held Halloween night was also sponsored by the Council. Members of the community, all ages included, were invited to participate. With the prospect of the 1980 Homecoming being the last one to be held on the Hill, Student Council invited all former Homecoming queens to attend the game and to participate in a pre-game ceremony. A dance was held in the gym follow- ing the football game. l lt was advertised as 'the week that lasts a lifetime' and it lived up to its promise. This was Doug Marsh's evaluation of Boys' State which he, Robbie Windsor, and Renato Dayao all attended at NAU in Flagstaff. Ren- ato was selected to be in the House of Representatives, while Doug won the primary election in his campaign for Superior Court judge but lost in the general election. Robbie's city was named an All-American city. Attending Girls' State, held on the campus of the University of Arizona, Sandra Rodriguez was a sanitation en- gineer in her city, while Cindy Lizar- raga held the office of magistrate. Cindy's city was named the outstand- ing city for Girls' State. Anytown was a week-long camp held near Prescott. Students attend- ing participated in daily discussions, workshops, and sing-alongs. Topics discussed included prejudices, alco- hol and drug abuse, friendships, and male-female relationships. Daily reli- gious sessions were also held with the Catholic, Buddist, Mormon and Sikh religions being represented. Anytown concluded with a candlelight ceremo- ny during which all delegates shared their feelings of brotherhood. By the end of the week, everyone had grown really close, said Phillip Merino.

These words were spoken often by Mrs. Hudgens as she encouraged the annual staff to finish assigned pages. Keeping up with the demand for Wildcat athletic jerseys kept the staff busy at the beginning of the year. The sale of jerseys replaced the Copper Cat staff's traditional candy sales at varsity football games. In September, staff members went to Safford, Clifton, and Morenci to sell ads. A week later the freshmen were doing and redoing the ad pages to Mrs. Hudgens' satisfaction. Three freshmen began learning the basics of photography, and in a few weeks, they too were taking pictures.

An honorary mem- bership was granted to Kim Smith, lVlorenci's AFS student. A 1971 Morenci graduate and a former member of National Honor Society, Mr. Nick Armijo, was the guest speaker at the formal initiation ceremony held on Tuesday, February 10. Senior members of the society explained the colors and emblem of N.H.S., and Doug Marsh adminis- tered the oath to the initiates. A re- ception in honor of the new members was held in the home economics room following the ceremony. As the initiates discussed the evening's pro- ceedings, Ronda Campbell was over- heard saying, I never thought that N.H.S. was such a big deal until all the people at the ceremony came and congratulated me. Pinning took place on February 6, with the initiates and members ex- cused from morning classes. The scholars enjoyed a morning away from school with visits to the Dairy Queen, El Cortez and the bowling al- ley.

All five wins came as a result of forfeits by opponents. Club members adopted the theme song Looking for 'Check- mate' in All the Wrong Places along with the chant Trade Down. At the end of the school year, an inter-school tournament was held to determine the best player. Receiving a trophy for his accomplishment, Eric Yetman was the 1980 winner. When asked whether he considered chess a difficult activity, Doug Marsh replied, It,s only difficult because it taxes you mentally, especially in a long, hard match.

Club members also enjoyed the potluck dinner held on the football field the same evening. French Club members held bake sales and car washes to raise mon- ey for pen pals in French-speaking countries and to purchase foreign language T-shirts. A video tape of members doing a play in French was also scheduled for later in the year. Members of the Spanish Club held bake sales in addition to sell- ing Christmas wrapping paper be- fore the holidays. Money was used for scholarships to graduating Spanish Club members. SNHS inducted twelve members into the society at the initiation ceremony held at the Morenci Club in the spring of 1980. Among the initiates were seven seniors and five sophomores. Following the traditional potluck dinner, Melanie Fileman, Sandra Rodriguez, and Mr. Bruce Allen performed a trum- pet trio for the audience.

To encourage greater visibility at night, club mem- bers presented the children with re- flector kits for their bicycles. A bike rodeo was given for the older children at Fairbanks School. Its purpose was to help each participant realize his ability and to improve con- trol of his bike. Each child was scored individually on the condition of his bike and his ability to control the bike through the obstacle course. Encouraging the use of seatbelts, the club also distributed bumper stick- ers in the Plaza with the slogan Seat- belts - You Can Bet Your Life on Them. Attending the state sponsored con- vention for T.R.A.G.Y.C. members in November were Cindy Berry and Al- ice Moffett. Besides being a lot of fun, said Cindy Berry, the conven- tion made a person realize the traffic problems Arizona hasf' Funds for club projects were raised through several bake sales and the raffle of an afghan donated by Mrs. Louise Gordon. Science Club members were in- volved in an environmental program organized by the Forestry Depart- ment. Students participated in such conservation jobs as building retaining dams, chuck dams, and cleaning up recreational areas. A rock-hunting ex- pedition was also held to collect specimens for the lapidary lab.

Now that we have our own ma- chine, said senior JoAnn Merino, we can use it whenever we want. lt's just for the girls! Although not an official school club, eleven Morenci Powerlifters at- tended the annual Silver City Power- lifting meet in New Mexico.

Making locker cards for both the boys' and girls' teams became a weekly project once school started. Designs for the sometimes elaborate cards were traced using the opaque projector. Many hours were then spent coloring, glittering, and cutting out the final result.

Luckily, the weather dried out and the bicyclists did not regret their decision to camp out during their trip. They spent only two nights in motels all summer. Some parts of the journey were tough peddling, although, Colorado's passes weren't as formidable as the pair expected. They felt the Appala- chians were the toughest part of their trip because of the steep and winding roads.

It was probably a full four weeks before we were completely used to pedaling all day. Some parts of the body were continually sore - those bike seats were hard! Flat tires caused a hassle during the trip as Mr. 'D' had his eighth flat in three weeks while traveling through Montana. Things got better, however, and he incurred only one more flat the rest of the trip. After eleven weeks, Mr. 'D' finally rode into Virginia Beach alone, his friend having left for his own destina- tion. I had just enough time to stick my hand in the Atlantic Ocean and ride back into town to miss my bus, cried Mr. Dickerson. I caught a later one and had an unenlightening two- day ride home to Denver. Would he do it again? YesI answered Mr. 'D', It's the best way to travel that I've found. I'm already planning a trip from the state of Washington to Mon- tana this summer.

An argumentative Eric Hayes disagreed, however, as he summed up his experience in U.S. History with It's boring! An equally argumentative Mr. Senne replied I think the social studies classes are the most significant taken by high school students if our country is to survive our third century. What happened, when did it hap- pen, why did it happen, who did it, and where did it occur were the five W's studied in the World History class. By learning of the world's past, students were better able to under- stand the present. In American Problems we learn how the U.S. government performs its many duties and of the rights all U.S. citizens should have, was Nat- alie Cox's description of her senior social studies class. Current Events classes focused on expanding stu- dents' knowledge of national and world events and on understanding the changing environment. News- week magazines were studied along with daily newspaper articles. POINTING OUT the location for the years' profit, Mr. Bill Senne goes over directions for the Farming Game.

SOCIAL SCIENCES 97 zf padilla and hiorth join staff New teachers in the district, Mr. Gilbert Padilla and Mr. Alan Hjorth, taught the basics in metal and auto shop classes. Safety techniques were the first thing learned in all the indus- trial arts classes. According to Mr. Ken Scheier, By learning to operate the machines safely, students learn to use the machines correctly, thus eliminating the possibility of injuring themselves or damaging the ma- chinesf' Basic training in gas and electric welding, along with the steps of oper- ating the various machines, followed the learning of safety procedures in metal shop. Woodshop students learned to identify different types of wood before beginning individual pro- jects. In auto shop classes students first learned each part of an engine before beginning to tinker with au- tos. More experienced students worked on their families' cars as well as their own vehicles. Drafting stu- dents made blue prints and isometric drawings. Bookkeeping students got off to a slow start the first six weeks because of a shortage of textbooks. Dictation to increase speed was an everyday event for shorthand students. Accord- ing to Mr. Roy Faulkner, Mind and hand coordination is very important, so constant practice is necessary! Typing l students started with the usual memorization of the keyboard. Once the keyboard was mastered, production jobs were assigned. It really gets hectic when jobs are due, stated Sherry Trujillo as she rushed to finish her assignment. ' in si 98-INDUSTRIAL ARTS 8a BUSINESS ff qv ,f -Q 6 .x I j I I ' -fv, W.

Several boys in the Survival class were used to demonstrate the use of a facial mask when the class studied face and skin care. Fabric color swatches were used at the beginning of the semester to help home economics students learn the colors that went with certain skin tones. Students then selected a pat- tern and constructed their garment. Other than complaining about the long walk to the art building, students generally enjoyed the art classes. lt's fun! said Frances Andazola, we do a lot of interesting things. Art projects included redesigning record covers, print making with lino- leum cuts, and making throw pots on an electric wheel. Students also paint- ed the backdrop for the Homecoming float and made team mascot posters for the gym wall. Ribbon winners at the annual Greenlee County Fair included Carol Bonilla for her chalk poster, and Al- bert Aguinaga for his design of a re- cord album cover as well as a Chalk poster. Members of the art classes also served as judges for the elementary school's Smokeout poster contest which was sponsored by the Ameri- can Cancer Society.

An hour at the swimming pool meant escaping hot, stuffy classrooms for some cool, wet relief. Due to a lack of space for individ- ual activities, most sports taught in both girls'and boys' P.E. were team sports such as basketball, volleyball, speedball, and soccer.

Learning and memorizing rules and traffic laws were the first areas under- taken by driver education classes. Students also studied car mainten- ance and watched films on how to drive safely. During the behind-the-wheel por- tion of the class, students had exer- cises in parallel parking and backing up. A six-mile driving test, construct- ed by instructor Mr. Bruce Kinneberg, was also required. Driver Education teaches you to be alert and always on the defense, said sophomore Tammy Garrett. And, as Mr. Kinne- berg explained, Many parents like their kids to have driver's education before they get their license, because insurance rates are lower. .' I I 'Hz' 1 ..,--.. .v.

Cleaning the school daily were the custodians who also supervised delin- quent students with various assign- ments. The lunchroom staff repared hot meals for high school students.

Seniors Prefer Pursuing Further Education A survey of the senior class showed that a majority of the class of '81 plans to attend college next year. Thirty-four seniors indicated a desire to continue their education while an additional six want to combine mar- riage with a college education. A three-way tie of five each existed between the choice of getting mar- ried, working for Phelps Dodge, and going to a trade school. Four people indicated the desire to leave Morenci to try to find a good-paying job else- where. Only one person expressed an interest in going into the military. 1 14 SENIOR CLASS Colleges students preferred to at- tend were Northern Arizona Universi- ty and the University of Arizona.

With the responsi- bility of putting on a prom just a year away, many class members did not feel much progress was being made towards earning the large amount of money needed. Not enough meet- ings or money-making projects. was an often-heard statement. As Michelle Romero put it, Next year when we start working on the prom, we're gonna' be hurting for money. Asked how it felt not to be a fresh- man anymore, many sophomores ac- tually favored their ex-frosh status. The reason given by Kelly Baker was We don't get any attention any- more. BIG MOUTHED sophomores yell their class cheer at the first pep assembly of the year.

On Baby Day, Sherry Trujillo and Vic- tor Ruedas were chosen the cutest Y i' babies. Asked how it felt to be a freshman, Ginger Schroeder said lt feels low. Other comments included Melissa Verdugo's pretty bad and Chris Rodriguez's lt's funner than Fair- banks.

INDEX-159 PRIDE is what it's all about As another year comes to a close, we look back and reflect on what it has meant to each of us. We remember the athletic victories - along with the frustrating defeats. Getting hoarse because we've yelled so hard during class competition cheers at a pep assembly was a com- mon occurrence, Academic achievements are also recalled - aceing a test, completing a term paper, successfully working an experiment. With pride, we reflect on the stand- ing ovation given the band, the plea- sure felt when the yearbook received another top ranking, and the personal accomplishments achieved by each and every student. We remember the support given to us by the community - Lion's Club sponsoring a baseball tournament, boosters working so hard to support our organizations. We realize how much M.H.S. has meant to all of us. It is a place we all take pride ing and, after all, PRIDE is what it's all about! HOLDING the Class A State Championship tennis trophy are team members Robbie Windsor, Rey Aguinaga, and Steve Segovia. A SERIOUS Susie Denogean reflects on her days at M.H.S. during the 1980 Commence- ment Exercises, MARCHING in the Veteran's Day Parade are members of the American Legion Lloyd C. Hill Post 1128. ENTHUSIASTIC freshmen give their class yell at a pep assembly. 160 PRIDE my 0531?
