Bottom Row: Rick Lynn, Mitch Cavna, Ayad Kazazzi, Computer Club This year ' s computer club was under the su- pervision of Mr. Michael Price. Lacking a spe- cific club curriculum, the students worked in- dependently on self-initiated projects. The pro- grams they developed included utility manage- ment, games, color graphics, and conic section applications. In addition, the students also wrote computer programs to serve the school in the areas of budget, inventory control, sports statistics, and accounting. The club membership held steady at fifteen members, however, many more students showed an in- terest and participated in club meetings and outings. With a goal of computer literacy for the staff and students of U.C.H.S., the mem- bers of the computer club looked forward to expanding the roll of computers in the lives of the persons at U.C.H.S. Jeff Lucas and Andrew Micone discuss computer graphics. Rick Lynn awaits the computer ' s reply. Mike Bennett concentrates on a sophisticated program. 97

Amata Club The Amata Club did a superior job this year serving our school and our community. Lauri Cleveland, the club ' s president, explained about the club. We are a branch of the Z club, an internati onal service organization. We named ourselves the Amatas, which stands for friendship and service. The club was made up of approximately thirty girls from U.C.H.S. and they met the second and fourth Thurs- day of every month. During their meetings, they planned activities and fund raisers for the year. Some of the activities the Amata Club did was an- swer telephones during the Cerebral Palsey Tele- thon and ushered at the U.C.H.S. benefit concert at U.C.S.D. They raised money through bake sales, to pay for the carpet in the office. Advisor, Mrs. White, assisted in planning the Amata Club ' s activi- ties and helped to make a very successful organiza- tion. Kneeling: Kathy Tin. Margie Bastida, Cynthia Chaney. Joyce Padigos.

Yearbook A lot of thought, talent and imagination went into designing a style of our own, replied co- editor-in-chief. Rob Vance, we were a new school and just starting out, we could develop a trend for annuals in future years. During our first year as U.C.H.S. ' s Excelsus staff, we ex- perienced many obstacles. Minor mishaps arose because of an inexperienced but highly motivated staff who worked together as a unit during the school year, as well as devoting their own time on weekends and holidays for critically demanding deadlines that had to be met. With constant and unyielding support and guidance from staff advisor, Mr. Rob Coons, we recaptured memories that all could enjoy of an unforgetable first year. Although we worked hard, the real pay off came when the annual was finished. staffers listen to Mr. Coons ' suggestions. — Vm t ' 1 • Back row: Sheila Wenzel, Cathy Billy, Dana Harwood, Tern Vanderhoof.
