Th ut ide Angle june 1983 Volume I, umber 1 Performing downtown for the judges, Marc Bryman, Krista Gresoro, and Leah Prewitt sing their hearts out for the Voter Turn-on Campaign. Drama and Band was awarded S2000 for their efforts. oters Turn d 0 Off To most students, elections Tieant ads, ads, and more ads. This election was no exception. More money was spent on the riidterm election than ever be- fore. Issues ranged from school textbook loans to nuclear war. But money wasn't spent only on ads. Several prominent San Diego businessmen organized a citywide high school contest to :lrum up voters for the Novem- oer election. The contest in- volved all 15 high schools in the San Diego Unified School District tn competing for cash awards to- taling S85,000. Activities includ- ed registering voters. making posters. distributing voter re- minders, calling voters, and an all-school voter rally. The political issues that per- vaded all of this were plentiful and diverse. On the California ballot, voters made many deci- sions. The issue of gun control created a heated argument. Vot- ers turned down gun control along with a referendum impos- ing a 5c returnable deposit on beverage containers. Voters did pass a measure requiring Gover- nor Brown to send a letter to President Reagan encouraging the freeze on nuclear weapons. With regard to offices, several changes occurred. In the U.S. Senate race San Diego Mayor Pete Wilson defeated Governor Brown in a close race. Filling the Governor's seat was George Deukmajian, who defeated Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley. All of these campaigns were fierce battles waged mainly in the press. Many students were an- noyed by the flood of television and newspaper ads that infiltrat- ed their lives. The Voter-turn-on campaign also interested many students who strived to raise money for various student organizations. The Rose Parade-bound March- ing Band put in a fair share of work along with Drama, C.C.T.V., Media Club, Patriot Press and others. The money's out there. We just have to work to get it, said organizer Mrs. Joan Stewart. Extensive efforts brought Channel 10 newscaster Susan Farrell to the Homecom- ing Parade which also empha- sized turning on the vote. All the work paid off with a 310,000 award. What's The strike Yes, There Is A World Out There The Who Concert. Reagan. The football strike. Elections. Un- employment. Burger wars. E.T. Punk rock. All were events that affected students in some way. While school was a major part of students' lives, the outside world was not to go unnoticed. An in- teresting year of sports started with a new young Padre team. The football strike dampened some students' Sunday after- noons but the Chargers did hit the field before it was too late. The Who Concert was the high- light of the entertainment scene, while E.T. was everywhere. New musicians emerged on the scene: the Stray Cats, Men at Work, and more. But overriding these fun events were national issues that affected students. Unem- ployment was high among teen- agers, as jobs were hard to come by. A new school superintendent meant changes in policy, and budget cuts affected all. Stu- dents would be faced with sever- al problems artd solutions outside of school. lt became necessary for them to see the world from the outside angle.

Th Out ide Angle Keeping Every- thing Going Students began to pay close attention to the signs on street corners, the ones at gas stations that displayed their prices. In the past year students were pleased with the dramatic fall from about 51.60 per gallon to as low as 936 The five cent per gallon tax put on gas by President Reagan did not seem to affect the much needed drop. Besides relieving students trapped for money but eager to drive, the fall in prices helped the economy and indus- try nationwide. Other forms of energy did not follow the same pattern though, especially in San Diego where San Diego Gas and Electric con- tinued to raise utility prices. This rise in costs put a great strain on the school district. Before school started the district announced a utility conservation program aimed at saving S1 million. The program included plans to shorten student's shower time, banning the use of portable fans, unplugging staff refrigerators and serving more cold lunches. Vice Principal Frank Gamboa was in charge of studying utility use on campus. An energy com- mittee was set up to determine what measures should be taken to cut utility consumption by 10070. . 9 j Les would noflonger be wearing bandaidslin conspicuous 'i places.

Many automobile accidents were caused by drivers who were enjoying when they should have been listening to traffic, and teachers felt blocked out and infuriated when students insisted on wearing mini-head- phones in class. Many new fads bothered peo- ple, the worst probably being bumper stickers that expressed people's favorite things or places. One student said, I HATE HEARTS! They were everywhere.
