Speech Club Voices Facts, Opinions While Two clubs on campus that gave the students an opportunity to communicate In different ways were Speech Club, advised by Mr. D ' Ambruoso, and NVTV, advised by Mr. De Rosa. The purpose of Speech Club was to give Northview students the chance to express themselves in a mature and intellectual manner. Also, it enabled teenagers to be better prepared for the real world by teaching them to have confidence m front of a large group. For the past 25 years. Speech Club has attended the annual Lion ' s Club Speech Contest in Irwmdale. North- view usually provides the majority of speakers. This past year, five attended who spoke on the subject of Space Exploration- what ' s the purpose? NVTV, although they never expressed their points of view in front of a crowd, helped teachers and coaches to see how their students or players handled themselves in certain situations. A teacher, for example, might have requested that someone from NVTV him a guest speaker who could only be on campus for one class period. Having a video tape enabled the teacher to have the other classes see the speaker. Most common, however, was the filming of sports events. About 10 teenagers found the time to become active in this club, which required all the shooting to be done in their spare time. Al Navarro was the president and Frank Amado was the vice-president. tigS ? ' Dave Goodman, preparing to film a guesi speaker, focuses on his subject.

I Girls ' Athletic Letter Society Recognizes The Girls ' Athletic Letter Society (G.A.L.S.) was a club for any girl who participated on a sports team during the school year. The purpose of G.A.L.S. was to recognize outstanding girl athletes. This year ' s G.A.L.S. officers were president Janet Ikehara, who was assisted by her officers, vice-president Ha Linh Le, treasurer Cecilia Saavedra, secretary Man Nakawatase, and historian Christine Tan. Meetings were held at brunch with Ms. Kildal as the club ' s advisor. The mam goal for G.A.L.S. this year was to raise enough money to fix and place a vending machine in the girls ' team room. They had successful fundraisers such as selling the World ' s Finest Chocolate Bars for which they made a profit of $739. Another successful fundraiser that G.A.L.S. had this year was the donkey basketball game which was held in April. Aside from having fundraisers, G.A.L.S. also had the responsi- bility of picking the Female Athlete of the Month for every month starting from October. The way they did this was by getting nominees from varsity girls ' coaches for the sport that was in season. The coaches presented their nominees with lists of accomplishments in their sports. G.A.L.S. members voted at meetings and the girl with the most votes won. Also, money raised for fun- draisers was used to buy the Lady Viking of the Year trophies for all girls ' sports. i While thinking about different Ideas for a fundraiser.
