ry girVs pi Girls League celebrates National Women ' s Week. In a time when men and women are getting harder to differentiate between, what are the lasting advantages that any girl still pos- sesses? 1) The ability to bear a child, 2) possessing a woman ' s touch , and 3) the right to cry at sad movies without pretending to have something in your eye. And, of course, the supreme advantage is the right to be involved in Girls League. Club activities were contructed to help to- day ' s teenaged girl with friends, family, fashion and future. In the fall, the club had a Big Sister Little Sister luncheon. It was an opportunity for the little sister to get acquainted with her big sister, said Angela Ji- menez. Every Girls League member was assigned to a freshman member to help her with any problems she might have. The Senior Mother and Daughter Tea was scheduled in June. It ' s a great way to spend time with my mom since I ' m gradu- ating so soon, said senior Margarita Azu- cena. In the spring, the Mother-Daughter Prom Fashion Show and Career Day were scheduled. A modeling agency was contacted to show off some of the newest prom dresses. And for Ca- reer Day, Linda Alvarez of Channel 4 Six O ' clock N ews agreed to speak to the girls about her profession. Even though there are certain disadvan- tages to being a girl, said sophomore Lisa Hanich, I wouldn ' t cop out and be a boy! story by Mary Ann Ca- barlo: layout by Alicia Ridri- guez; pictures by Brad Lin- denburg.

The result of their work may seem like play, but many of the Pepsters could have told you it was not. It ' s a lot of work and demands total dedica- tion, said mascot An- gle Flores. You have to sacrifice a lot of things. The squad had to give much of their t ime dur- ing the summer to practice for cheer camp and the coming year. We had to be at the football field by 7:30, said songleader Shern Brown. Once there, we would practice chants and learn some routines to prepare for camp. With a little practice under their belts, the Pepsters were then shipped off to cheer camp. We learned stuff there that we would be able to use at school. said songleader Karen Del Rosario. When the school year started. Pep not only cheered on the Varsity football team, they also went to other sports to give teams a little spiritual uplift. We raised approxi- mately $1250 altogeth- er from the football rib- bon sales, a summer car wash, and the ticket sales for the Diamond Bar Walnut Pancake Breakfast, said Pep treasurer Jennifer Per- ry. The end results of the squad ' s dedication did not go unnoticed by the students. Many felt that the Pepsters brought people together. People paid atten- tion to them and they got involved more when the pepsters did an activity, said soph- omore Bijal Vakio.
