8th GRADE RECOG ITIO Many are talented: but few are willing to develop their talents by many hours of practice and to share it gener- l ously with others. Consider the students you see on these pages as representatives of all those you know who set a goal. work towards it. share the fruits of their labor, and don't brag about it. The violin is not an easy' instru- ment to play. If you were lucky enough to have been a partici- pant in the German Weihna- chten celebration. you would have heard Jim Choo play' the Cantique Noel. Any one who has the courage to play' the unwieldy cello. has grace and cour- age. Elizabeth Tucker. a member of the C.C.Y.S.. seems to play it with the greatest of ease. N Jonathan Feng. recent soloist with the Diablo Symphony. plays his trumpet beautifully Even a two week layoff would cause the mus- celes in his lip to go slack and high notes impossible to reach. Those who play' a brass instrument know that daily' practice is the only vtay to stay on top. lf one were to throw any instri ment at Phil Miscovich. he woul probably catch it and play it. Fc the school band he plays pian- sax. and clarinet. Dana Hazzard. Kristen Conover and Maureen Bangs all swim ft A.A.U. clubs. Do you realize that they swim laps every morir before school . . . and then go and swim some more after schoo To get their A and AA times they often spend several wee? ends a month swimming in meets.

CES Mike Thompson. Keith Gwilliam and Chris Hansen show tremendous dedi- cation to the school and to the team Their feeling of obligation to their committment always comes before their personal desires. Their contrib- utions are appreciated. To have many skills and talents is exhausting. Not only is April Steuber an outstanding student. and enviable friend to have. she is also multi-talented in many areas. Look for her name in lights! Have you noticed that dancers have outstanding postures? Well. to achieve that and much more Lisa Paine. Joanne Lattuca. Kristen Nelson, Kristen Brown and Deana Holt spend hours every week at the barre doing their plies and developing bunyons en pointe. l Loren Barr. Kirby Freeman. Larry Moore. Terry Han. Mimi Helper - all pul in many hours of running with their A.A.U. clubs. Kent Johnson runs an outstanding race for Stanley. One does not become good at track over- night. it takes hours and often years of pain and sacrifice to become a winner. 103
