Kick-Back Time For Top Students California Scholarship Feder- ation, made up of those students with a dollar and a high grade point average in academic classes, was one of the busiest and most popu- lated clubs on campus. Its in- school activities were limited due to members ' heavy workloads, but it did have many activities that other clubs envied. Most members said they joined for the fun things like the club ' s Disneyland trip. Gary Baldwin re- cruited new members by saying, It ' s a kickback club! All you do is sell candy bars and go on trips! Elaine Burn took a more serious view, however, saying she joined CSF to be active in a club promot- ing scholarly efforts and to be a Gold Seal Bearer when she graduat- ed. Other CSF activities included go- ing to the state spring conference and on the June educational trip, ushering at plays, and sponsoring College Day and innumerable fun- draisers. In this club, unlike many others, most of the members did get involved: they sold candy, went to meetings, and (of course) went on all the field trips. To join CSF, students had to have at least three A ' s and a B on the last semester ' s report card. While these are fairly rigorous standards, the club had a large membership-over five percent of the school population. Adviser Mrs. Wiese said the best thing about the club was seeing students outside of the classroom. She was bothered by the lack of involvement in some years, but all in all she thought it was rewarding to be able to work with students of this caliber.

The Buck Stops Here The game got underway and it was once again the un- derclass against the seniors. Mike Suchanek tipped the ball giving the seniors a chance to take a lead. Kevin Kelley took advantage of that opportunity, making four baskets without any interfer- ence by the underclass. Rob- ert Gonzalez, however, came in taking control for the un- derclass. The ball went back and forth continually until the score was 22-18, seniors, at the end of the first half. David Price and Mike Su- chanek started the second half on the running don- keys. The donkeys seemed to be losing their patience, growing more stubborn as players on both teams started taking flying dives and flips over the donkeys. It appeared to take more time to sweet talk the donkeys into going after the ball. Vivian Miller tried again and again, just to stay on her donkey. Once she succeeded she made two bas- kets. However, the under- class could not hold on. The seniors won the game 46-34, through the efforts of high scorers Mike Suchanek who made 20 points, and Kevin Kelley who made 18 points. 1.

GAA Opens Girls ' Sports To All Girls Athletic Association was the girls ' sports club. It was orga- nized much like the Lettermen ' s Club, right down to the fun- draisers, but its membership policy was different: Any girl was eligible for membership. Although members were usually active in sports, physical prowess wasn ' t necessary to be a GAA member. The club was trying to ex- pand its membership to include all types of girls, both those in and out of sports. Maybe that way they ' ll go out for sports, said president Liz Swyter. GAA is a fundraising club, like many others on campus. It goes for the profitable activities, the cream of the crop — fundraisers, ban- quets, etc. — and then it uses the money earned to buy athletic equipment the school can ' t.

Time Out For Sports Lettermen, Front: Scott Miller, Duane Koverly, Darin Merry, Steve Caffrey, Ed Torres, Robert Gonzales, Sam Gonzales, Tony Knight, Walter Andreatta, Mike Shoemaker.

Back: Ed Walker, Paul Miller, Tim Lilley, Al Gore, Carl Giles, Mark Glasgow, Glenn Morris, Eric Leavitt, Pat Bates, Roger Iwig, Howard Dreschler, Cary Cerbasi. Carl Giles called the Lettermen ' s Club a representation of athletic excellence. Mr. Warhurst called it a legal arm to raise money for sports, and then went on to add that it had nothing to make its members give their time to it. Any guy with a letter or who was in varsity sports was automatically a member of the Lettermen ' s Club — volunteered, as Carl put it. As one might expect, it was loosely or- ganized. Its members met about once each quarter to plan their various fun- draisers: the Donkey Basketball game, the Lift-a-Thon, and candy sales. Then they decided how to spend the money they ' d raised, usually buying athletic equipment and other things to improve the gym. Clubs 25
