Cloaked Individuality Unmasked V ... It crouches within the souls of each person; it is the element that marks individuality ■ isions of Hollywood big-wigs relax- ing in poolside splendor prompt many ' young creative geniuses to set their sights on film-making careers. An innovative organization, the Mo- tion Picture Club, presented its mem- bers With a headstart into the film-mak- ing world. At meetings, characters, plot, story line, and possible locations took shape; injecting life into their plans. Em- ploying vanous techniques end special effects, they engraved their dreams on celluloid. After editing their own film they enjoyed the satisfaction of watch- ing their ideas jump to vivid life on the silver screen. Co-president Chuck Kuhn concluded Our club is really fun, because it gives us a chance to live out our fantasies. Anything we want we can put on film; the sky ' s the limit! Down each alley in life, regardless of where you are, you will discover creativ- ity. It crouches within the souls of each person; it is the element that marks indi- viduality. As Ms. Hovsepian said, Ev- eryone has creativity in them because | everyone is a creation. At RHS, there is a point where each shaft of creativity converges: the Gal- lery. Published each year by the Cre- ative Wnting Club, its theme changes to suit each school year and its students. Publishing the Gallery was not restrict- ed to students in the Creative Writing Club, but any imaginative student with publishable matenals could contnbute. Poems, short stories, photos, and draw- ings were accepted. The end product was an aesthetic creation. Ms. Hovse- pian, advisor, concluded, We just like to show off our unique selves. 1.

Special Activities Fashion Year c f It was invisible, but I could feel it. As I entered the gym, I could sense the an- ticipation hovering over everyone at the Black Student Union ' s (BSU) Black Histo- ry Week assembly. First on the agenda, the Mission Jr. High Choir sang gospel songs. Next, the guest of honor, Craig Johnson, launched into a rendition of Martin Lu- ther King ' s I Have a Dream speech Then Valissa Ferebee was crowned BSU queen, and the assembly was conclud- ed as freak poppers performed. BSU members also held fundraisers and enjoyed field trips. The club re- volved around the members ' pride in their heritage and in those who made great advances for it. When the girl stepped up to home base, a question surfaced in my mind. Why, ondered, are they playing softball instead of having meetings? The students in Mexicanos Estu- diantes Chicano de Aztlan (MECHA) were practicing for games against other MECHA ' s. Besides these athletic contests, ME- CHA also held various fundraisers throughout the year. Proceeds were dedicated to scholarships they awarded to seniors. They also hosted the Cinco de Mayo dinner and dance. Mary Martinez stated, Our club is friendly, and I ' m proud to be president. Jf 1. The freak poppers perform their novelty dance. 2.
