Involvement Imparts Knowledge ' It ' s beneficial not only in our studies, but in just round about knowl- edge ... w O. 108 rder in the court! the judge demands of the spectators and the first witness finishes his dramatic testimony. The final witness takes the stand and the testimonies are complete. The law- yers deliver their closing speeches and the trial is finished. This is an ordinary day in the Political Science Club. Members invest six hours weekly to ensure the success of their mock trial competition. Political Science is the study of the politics and governments not only of our country, but of others around the globe. The mam purpose of the club, as Clemente Diaz put it, is to teach, un- derstand, and inform students about governments and their roles in the world. I groaned when my counselor told me that I would have to take a science. As the year progressed, though, I realized that I enjoyed science. In fact, I liked it so well that I decided to join the Science Club. This surprised my mom, who was convinced that my scientific knowledge was limited to the chemical make-up of a candy bar. Once I joined the club, I enjoyed work- ing and meeting with other students who had a good appreciation of science and the joy of competition in science fairs. I really can ' t believe how much I ' ve gotten involved in the science field. Not only is it fun and challenging, but as Anna Maria Hagstrom put it, It ' s bene- ficial not only in our studies, but in just round about knowledge of science. 1.

Unity Initiates Clubs ' Success sG ossip flies about carelessly, and ru- mors spread with ease. The grapevine of a high school is complicated, and the most observant onlooker isn ' t always aware of everything happening. Because of this, Mr. Huckaby estab- lished the Principal ' s Advisory Council, While most students feel completely at ease with the administration, there are a few students who will not or cannot ap- proach the administration when a prob- lem arises. PAC members, selected by Mr. Huck- aby, noticed problems, discussed them with friends and finally approached oth- er PAC members. We talked about the locker problem and decided to cage them in. It has reduced the rate of lock- er break-ins, reported Michael Ander- son. With our ideas, we solved our problems, concluded Shelley Sanchez. Not that I ' m really into weather dances or anything, but |ust for one day, I ' m willing to pray for sun. It ' s 9:00 on a Saturday morning, and there ' s a Year- book Club Car Wash. I arrived at the Mobil Station to see fellow club members already at battle with each other. I intervened and soon peace was declared. During a break, I talked with Mary Roper the club president. Yearbook Club was formed so that yearbook members and friends can socialize and benefit the yearbook too, said Mary. We concluded that the car wash had been our most successful fundraiser. We decided to invest the money in awards to be presented at the yearbook banquet. 1.
