Yearbook This year’s yearbook staff tried very hard to get ads and raise money for the 1984 edition. The class consisted of 13 people, all who feel that this book is one of the best books Tech Yearbook has ever produced. As the reader can see, there is a color senior section. The advisors, Mrs. Metzidakis and Mr. Pieciak, hope to continue producing a color senior section while Tech is still in existence. The last color senior section was in the 1979 yearbook. Hope you like the book! YEARBOOK STAFF SENIOR MEMBERS: Corinthian Dennard, Lynn Collins, John Wages, Rick Sotiropoulos, Alessandra Mor- iarty, Francisco Duncan and Gerald Smith. YEARBOOK STAFF JUNIOR MEMBERS: Theresa Barker, Scott Thompson, Stephen Wyman, Sigfredo Chiclana, Richard Switzer and Idalia Cintron.

Thespians At the time of the interview, the Drama Club had several plans. This year the Drama Club will be putting on a Talent Show. It will be in December. The club will also be putting on some plays and some musical productions, including dance interpretations. The Drama Club consists of 20 people who are working hard to make the year successful. It hopes that this year’s activities will make the school aware that the Drama Club is alive and is on the move. Mrs. Robertson is the advisor of the Drama Club. This is her first year as the Drama Club advisor at Technical High School. She replaced Miss Hallen who had to drop the advisorship because of a busy schedule. The Drama Club members and Mrs. Robertson hope more people come out and join the club. It wants people who are willing to work hard and stay with the club to the end. Remember that acting is not the only qualification for joining. There are many other different opportunities in the cub. At the time of this writing, The Drama Club was planning a Variety Show. Students who wanted to participate had to audition on February 8th. Some of the talents were: a live band, a singing duet, break dancers, a person doing a little skit, girls and guys modeling clothes, rappers, 4 fellows who were singing solos, and some girls who were dancing. Unfortunately, the show was postponed because Advisor and Assistant Advisor, Mrs. Robertson and Miss Hallen, felt that there wasn’t enough “variety.”’ Some of the people who auditioned were John Wages, Eric Collins, Greg Dyson, Roger Coombes, Jerome Hill, June Johnson, Melonie Brown, James Thomas, Kareem Shariff, Michael Bruce, and Corinthian Dennard. Corinthian Dennard Row One: Karen Williams, Theresa Harris, Angel Valle, Corinthian Dennard, Mrs. Robertson, Advisor. Row Two: Yvette Dil- lon, Walleska Quinonez, Cassandra Ster- ling. Row Three: Miriam Monet, Eleanor Burris, Theresa Hardrick.

OUTO3 (4103) 797-4306 WHO AM |? Who am |? Do you wonder when you tend to look in the mirror who am 1? When someone is calling your name Who am |? When you're alone. Sometimes we wonder about our- selves, where we come from What we are, and why we are here. Are we not subjects on someone else's domain or are we subjects of an invisible force? We are God's creatures whom he sent forth to fulfill this planet and we are humans that we live with one another and share the hurt, the pain, and the living. Perhaps there is more to ‘Who am I’ But everyone will still wonder... Who am I?
