Contents 1 Glvmpic boycott, Eighties make dramatic entrance National election After the dramatic entrance of 1980 into the lives of Americans, we all shared the same vision of important new directions to be taken in all phases of our lives. No sooner had Americans adjusted to life in the eighties when events oc- curred which would set the year distinctly apart. The Soviet invasion of Afghani- stan, in January, shocked and an- gered Americans and resulted in the United States boycott of the Summer Olympic Games, held in Moscow. The boycott was re- ceived with mixed reactions by Americans. Many felt that it was unfair to deny American athletes a chance at competing in the Olym- pics. The question, Do politics have a place in athletics? was raised by the people, the media, and by international government officials. With the absence of American athletes in the Olympics, the na- tion began to speculate on presi- dential hopefuls. The Republican Convention, held in July in De- troit, Michigan, proved no sur- prise, as ex-California governor Ronald Reagan easily gained his partie's nomination. The Demo- cratic Convention, held in New York's Madison Square Garden in August, was a complete contrast. At the end of the tumultuous convention, Carter received the Principal W.T.

Reagan won the election with a landslide number of electoral votes. In the minds of most Americans, the decision of electing a president was not a matter of voting for the most qualified candidate, but choosing between the lesser of three evils. The American Auto Industry found itself facing evils of a differ- ent sort. Sales of American-made cars plummetted from 9.3 million in 1978 to 7 million in September 1980. An figures recorded in the last week of August 1980 showed that America's Big Three auto makers, Chrysler, Ford, and Gen- eral Motors, sold the fewest cars for any mid-August period since 1967. Because the Auto Industry was the single largest industry in the United States, the economy Indian mascot, Arturo Gonzalez, clothed in the traditional Indian headdress, issues an Indian war cry to the opposing team on a Friday morning pep-rally. Tury was elected mascot for the sec- ond year in a row. Opening 4 i Solutions sought for crisis' I and job force of the entire nation was affected. In all, 650,000 jobs in related business were sacrificed. I Ford Chairman Philip Caldwell said, lt,s not really just the auto business. I think we're talking about the industrial capability of the nation. To counteract the 1 downward trend, auto-makers went back to the drawing board to produce a fashionable, comfort- able, affordable, and fuel-efficient car.

On September 19, school history was made when a pep-rally was dismissed because of poor conduct on the part of a few. In the true spirit of unity and love for school, each Indian contributed in some way, be it with petitions, pleas, and promises of no more misbehavior, to resurrect the pep-rallies, and to dis- pel the myth that Ysleta and its proud traditions were slowly dying. A new feeling of pride began to pulsate through the school, reviving old traditions and begin- ning a new era of Indian Pride. Students were not the only ones affected by the 'changing winds' pervading the school, teachers throughout the district united to seek a 16.8 pay increase, a fully-paid health insurance program, and a maximum class limit. Growing discontent over these and fifteen other teacher demands nearly resulted in a teacher strike in September. As of November, none of the teacher demands had been met, but school board and teachers' associations meetings continued in the hopes of finding a compromise acceptable to both administrators and educators. School board members and school officials became the target of students who were displeased with the switch from quarters to semesters, and from letter to numerical grades, thus making it more difficult to earn and maintain passing grades. To cut down on chronic absences, a ten-day absence policy was put in effect. Under this rule, a student who was absent more than ten days of a semester lost all credit for that semester. In addition to the changes that were occurring on the school and national level, all Lower Valley resi- dents watched as the familiar cottonfields were re- placed by stores and shopping areas. Once known as a fertile farming valley, the Lower Valley was trans- formed into a busy 'City within a City' which grew rapidly to accomodate the influx of people. Perhaps the single thing that remained constant in the lives of most Ysleta students was the family. This stemmed, in large part, from the Mexican culture which was still deeply rooted in the minds and cus- toms of Lower Valley residents. The emphasis placed on a close family relationship by the Mexican culture continued to be practiced by Lower Valley residents. This closeness was clearly Band Major Melody Hutchins leads The Pride of the Lower Valley through the streets of El Paso during a parade. Under the direction of Mr. Richard Burton, the marching Indians were awarded a rating of superior at the November 6 band contest. Opening 8 l Fuel, and the lack or high price of it, broke the extravagant driving habits of many drivers. As gas prices reached 51.10 a gallon in late November, weekly excursions to Juarez became a must if the luxury of owning and maintaining a car was to be feasible. Although oil and its scarcity continued to be a world problem, it seemed that the only oil that Americans began to think about was the fictitious Ewing oil.

Most seniors found themselves graduating with the same group of friends with which they had en- tered elementary school. Perhaps because of this solid base, we found that events which would have easily divided a less unified school only served to strengthen us, and reaffirm the bonds which held us fast. Predictions for the nation of a decline in the quality of life in the eighties, the occurence of natural disasters, particularly the eruption of Mount St. Helens in Washington, and a steadily worsening fuel crisis, were all tak- en with a positive attitude by the stoic Indians. We realized that there was no direction to take but the one which led forward. As we marched, and some times trudged, along our path, it became clear that we were not stagnating, but we were STILL GOING STRONG. Opening 10 iw .

Through wins or losses, successes or failures, good days or bad days, we remained Indians - proud and loyal. We looked upon the eighties as a challenge to be conquered and a time for individual growth. With a proud history in our past, and a positive outlook for the future, we were Still Going Strong. f?

Friday may lead to a football game. After the game, most fans could be found at any one of the many local fast food restaurants. V A Football season also enjoyed a fa- vorite pastime for many students, bonfires. Students enjoyed listening to the music that sometimes accom- panied bonfires while others simply enjoyed sitting back and watching the fire slowly burn. At the end of football season, only the imagination was the boundary to the many things students did on weekends. There were numerous skating par- ties sponsored by various clubs which were thoroughly enjoyed by many despite their soreness. The more adventurous people could be found hunting, four-wheeling on the outskirts of the city, or mountain climbing. Saturdays, for most girls, were usually spent shopping. Although shopping centers offered much more than a chance to get a new pair of jeans. There were many theatres which were flocked with viewers. Pinball arcades were also equally filled. Concerts, of course, were some- thing almost everyone attended whether it be Van Halen or Willie Nelson, Ysleta students could be found jamming to their favorite sounds. Weekends were two days that seemed to be put aside to help us keep from going crazy. Yet there were a few unfortunate souls who could not seem to tear themselves away from their books. They were either brains or they were people who remembered Sunday night that they had a ten-page report due in class on Monday. Regardless of how the weekend was spent, you could be certain that almost no one was ready for school on Monday. Weekends 13 Student Life 14 k'. r Q 'lf' . N. ,1 ff I i X ab , if gy, I W, l'l 1i 1 .

With a new surge of pride, it was clear to see that Indian Pride Lives 77 On. Homecoming week began with many students anxiously waiting for that Friday night which was indeed the highlight of the festivi- ties. Homecoming '8O marked the 53rd anniversary celebration for the Reservation. Activities were held throughout the week during both lunch shifts. Included in the week of events were the hall and car decorating contests. First place in the hall decorating contest went to the ju- nior class, with the senior and sophomore classes receiving sec- ond and third places. Hector Hol- guin, won the car decorating con- test with his yellow Chevy Che- vette. His car uniquely decorated with a miniature Indian pinata mounted on the hood and stream- ers all around was indeed a win- ner. Second place went to George Arvizu. The prize for the best decorated car was a pair of tickets to the homecoming dance. ,--,.L ....-. --.Ho nent. student body at the football game, Homecoming Queen Lydia Villalva es- corted by Javier Villalva procedes to receive her crown and roses.

Lydia was active in Orchesis where she served as president, yearbook co- editor, National Honor Society, Quill and Scroll, the Student Advi- sory Committee, Student Council secretary and a representative of the Popular Teen Board. ln addition to Homecoming Queen, there were four other girls who took their place as a part of the homecoming court. Princesses Jill Egger and Vivian Lopez, Varsi- ty Duchess Missy Ramos and B- team duchess Linda Archuleta. The fun began soon after the Indians massacred the Rangers 30- 12, with the annual Homecoming Dance held at the Airport Hilton Inn. Sabor provided music to suit the taste of everyone who at- tended the dance. With a long week behind them, students from time to time remi- nisced about that special event called Homecoming.

They threatened to end a tradition which most Indians enjoyed. The immature acts of a few almost put an V end to pep rallies on the Reservation. Many Indians began to wonder, Whatever happened to that Indian Pride? Those of us who cared, and we were many, showed them that Indian Pride was better than ever. There was a new surge of unity among the tribe as we hopefully tried to repeal Mr. Denham's decision to cancel pep rallies for the remainder of the year. Q Only the week of September 26 did we have to endure the silence which hovered in the air, for Ysletans were already undertaking plans to show Mr. Denham that we would not go through football season without pep rallies because of a few childish students. Student council intensified their campaign to promote spirit during the following week. Maroon and white colored the school once again. Cheerleaders led us in class yells as the three classifications competed for the spirit flag. Our mascot, Tury Gonzalez, danced the traditional dances as drumbeats I echoed across the field of Hutchins stadium. As they grew louder and louder, the Horserider rode across the field and hurled the spear into the ground as a sign of conquest and strength. The mighty Indian band played our Alma Mater and fight song. Our braves touched the mighty shoulder of Kawliga hoping his strength would aid them in Friday night's battle. We were the Indians, the Pride of the Lower Valley, and our unsurpassed spirit was prevalent ' long after the morning pep rally as we carried it with us to the game. Regardless of whether our team won or lost, we cheered them on and took home with us the pride with which we had gone into battle. They were the people who made it happen: Above left: The football players gather around the spear at the end of a pep rally.

However, 1980 brought fash- ion styles which are as old as, well, as old as the Cowboys and Indians. Western dressing and music enjoyed unrivaled popularity with the release of the film Urban Cowboy. The movie itself brought a sudden change to society's way of dress. Dancing Disco no longer ruled the lives of young teens, but instead country western became their favorite. Night clubs featuring the country western style became popular. They, like many others, resembled Gilley's night club of Urban Cowboy fame. Short greased hair, baggy pants, far out colors, and matching shoes were all characteristics of a Punk Rocker. Punk rock also brought a new way of dancing. They danced to Villalva, Board Manager, and Maria Barriga pose in their preppy-looking uniforms. the many new songs introduced as a different style of music, and indeed it was. One of the most popular songs was Whip lt by Devo. Punk Rockers even developed a new kind of dancing. Furthermore, a style that was once used in the 50,5 is once again fashion- able. Elegant dressing of pumps, pearls, and nighttime black made big news in the fashion scene. The school-time look was also reminiscent of the 50's. Commonly referred to as preppy dressing, stu- dents came back to school wearing string ties, ponytails tied with gros- grain ribbon, button-down collars, and oxford shoes. Whether a cowboy or Punk Rocker, it was surely evident that many Indians were riding high in fashion. Qu Above Left: Modeling the elegant look of the 50's is senior Patricia Arias.

Once the cold winds of winter turned to the breeze of spring, a flur- ry of activities began on the Reserva- tion. Some of the long awaited events came to being, such as the modern dance recital on March 13 and 14, where students staged L'Come Feel the Beat , a performance displaying both skill and ability. Three individuals received recog- nition for their great ability to dance. Honored were Lydia Villava, Best Dancer , Sylvia Hidalgo, Best Sen- ior Dancern, and Gina Rivera S'Most Promising Dancer . Following the spring recital, both French and Spanish classes present- ed an assembly on March 25. It con- sisted of dances and songs from all over the world. The assembly was organized by Mrs. Rosa Maria DeCa- sas. Rounding off the year was the arri- val of the yearbook in May. The 1980 yearbook was presented to the anxious crowd after a year-long wait. Looking to the 8O,s', was the theme. For the first time in history, the title of Indian Maiden was award- ed to two girls, Norma Sierra and Lori Rubio. Kevin Pope was awarded the honor of Brave. Each were given a free yearbook. Student Life 28 lll N f , 12 2 . D 1111 l I ,-.-.,-. -- .

School-wide fame was won by Lillian Tellez, Linda Archuleta, Ar- turo Gonzales, and Diane Medlin for prominent positions they held during the 1980-81 school year. These positions were Band and Drum Corps Drum Majors, the Mascot, and the Horserider, re- spectively. Linda Archuleta was selected by four judges to be Assistant Drum Corps Drum Major.

A traditional part of Ysleta High School pep rallies was the Horser- ider. Riding ability, the horses' ability to be controlled, and his tameness in a crowd was the basis of judgement for Horserider. Diane Medlin, who has enjoyed riding for years, tried out against Mike Archuleta for the title of Hor- serider. The mascot has always been a spirit-raising part of Ysleta. He performs dancing routines at the pep rallies and football games to rouse the crowd's enthusiasm. To gain this honor, spirit, enthusiasm, and skill at Indian-type dancing had to be demonstrated. Contes- tants were Javier James, Arturo Gonzales, Jaime Quintana, and Joe Salas. They tried out in front of Student Council, who judged them on costume, spirit, and per- formance. Arturo Gonzales was chosen mascot for the second con- secutive year with Jaime Quintana as alternate.

Dur- ing this heatwave, temperatures climbed to over 100 degrees. Ysleta students, who wanted to advance in their schoolwork at- tended classes at Riverside or Bel Air High School. Some of them attended the classes in order to graduate early, while others were doing some catching up. Rosa Moreno, an Ysleta summer school graduate, remarked, i'My family was very proud of me. I I I As usual, the Indians hung out at local swimming pools, recrea- tional centers, and parks. Some of the popular places used by the stu- dents to cool off were Pavo Real Recreational Center, Pasodale Park, and Ascarate Lake. Those who were financially able and slightly more adventurous enjoyed a more exotic means of entertain- ment. For example, they went mountain climbing, water skiing, camping, fishing, four-wheeling, or hunting. Some were lucky enough to travel with their family to differ- ent parts of the nation. These va- cations provided relief from the sweltering heat. an MT' i 2 515 if .

Michiko Oike, Japanese Foreign Exchange Student. 1 Worlds away from home Students had an excellent op- portunity to learn about other countries and their cultures from the three foreign exchange stu- dents who visited Ysleta this year. Hannele Juvonen, Michiko Oike, and Heidi Nussbaumer came here through the Youth for Under- standing program coordinated for the school through Mrs. Carol Pope. Hannele Juvonen came to us from Jaunkoski, Finland. Her home town is a small community mainly consisting of farmers and factory workers. She stayed the year with the Joe l-lanawalt family. Hannale enjoys playing the piano, listening to music, and playing vol- leyball. Michiko Oike adjusted tremen- dously from a family of four at home, to the family of ten at the home of Gene Akers. Michiko came from Kurohone, Japan. In Kurohone, she attended an apart- ment-style school where the stu- dents stay in class and the teachers change rooms. Michiko found life extremely strange here, as com- pared to Japan, but she enjoyed it here. Heidi Nussbaumer, exchange student from Luterback, Switzer- land, stayed with Maria Barriga. She enjoyed her stay in the United States immensely. She enjoyed volleyball, baseball, and other sports. Heidi commented that everything is different, but it's great.

Foreign Exchange Playing up to spirit The daily routine of hour long classes was broken Friday mornings at 9:10 when everyone was dismissed out to Hutchins stadium to participate in more than an hour of fun. It was the only time when the administration actually encouraged the student body, not only to yell, but to yell as loud as possible. Just to add to the fun of pep rallies, many school organizations performed various skits during different rallies. Skits differed from the ingenious to the indescribable. One such indescribable skit was performed by the varsity cheerleaders. The cheerleaders acted out the scene of the horrible creature from Andress. Everyone who cast his eyes on the creature died. It seemed as if no one could bear the sight of the creature. Dead Indians lay on the field apparently from having seen the creature in all its glory. At the sight of Al Carr the creature died, and so ended the plight of the Andress Eagle. Often such skits were enacted by the Senior Steering Committee and student council officers. The senior steering committee portrayed Eastwood's homecoming court. These Hactorsf' poked fun at the court in a way that made everyone laugh at their craziness. Ingenious was the only word to describe the skit characterized by student council. The Godfather theme was used in the ongoing rivalry with the Belerie family from Bel Air high school. The excitement of pep rallies was summed up by one student's statement: It wasn't so much that the skits were great shows, they just made pep rallies more fun! . 925' Student Life 38 i '1f'2i.., g-wyuqvsv Top: Clinging to each other for help, Varsity cheerleaders Margie Bejarano and Dana Reinhardt try to overcome the Andress creature,'.

Student Lite Christmas Starting out with new outlooks and fresh ideas, Student Council kept away from tradition and made their own step- ping stones which led to a successful year. Student council is the leading force, thats what we're here for, but it's up to the students to carry it out, said Presi- dent Mike Bosoco. Student involve- ment was the key word stressed during summer meetings in which President Mike Bosoco, Vice-President Amanda Bowman, Council-person at-large Julie Alvarado, Secretary Lydia Villalva, and Assembly Managers Vivian Lopez and Kyle Pope met to plan the upcoming year. Registration also kept the officers busy as they sold I.D. cards and decals, or just lent a helping hand. Student Council set out to prove that the myth of Ysleta losing their pride was not true. Their goal was to unite the student body as Indians, not just as seniors, juniors, and sophmores. The student body was encouraged to learn the Alma Mater and to try to wear maroon and white every Friday. An increase in membership gave Stu- Jgif- will ..E ' '-5' by candlelight dent Council a chance to fulfill goals that had once been out of reach. The annual luminaria display received a blue ribbon amidst many financial prob- lems and lack of participation. The El Paso Herald-Post sponsored the con- test. Learning to get along and work as a group was not hard for the officers, Mike Bosoco said, Everyone seemed to be doing their job which is necessary in all activities. One of the most hard- working officers was Julie Alvarado. As council-person at-large, Julie along with Mike and sponsor Mr. Enrique Rodri- guez devised a new system of voting which was similar to national and local elections. A registration card was need- ed to vote. Ending the year was sad, but wel- comed because all that had been set out to do was completed.

Starting out with a budget of 2,976 dollars the staff published 10 issues before having to rely on money from advertisment and candy sales. With 17 beginning staffers and eight returning people from last year, changes were bound to hap- pen. As of the third issue the POW WOW was printed on newsprint not so much for the money savings but for a 'newspaper look'. Production started off slowly as the first issue was printed three weeks after the start of school, but the pace quickly amplified as experience and matur- ity grew. Proving that excellance does not go unnoticed, the POW WOW re- ceived a first place certificate from the Columbia Scholastic Press As- sociation for 1980 and was ranked third in the city from the Southwest Scholastic Press Association. In March accompanied by dual year- book and newspaper adviser Josie Kinard, journalists from both staffs traveled to Austin, Texas to partici- pate in various workshops including U.l.L. contests. With weekly deadlines, responsi- bility was the major key in continu- ing publication of the newspaper. Editors had the extra burden of pasting up their individual pages as corners were being cut to keep up with printing costs of 349.00 a page. Overall the POW WOW brought valuable experience to those who would someday venture into the world of Mass media and for those staying on it was a brief glimpse of what to expect in the odyssey of journalism. 1.1 -Qi .H I EF Q !

Such a gathering, called an otyokwa, brought the whole clan together, regardleess of whether it was a joyous or sad- dened occasion. ln much the same manner, the twenty member yearbook staff met to plan a book which would contain most of the events, battles, accomplishments, and victories of the Ysleta Indians. Despite the loss of beloved ad- viser Pearl Crouch, the Otyokwa staff continued their effort to pro- duce a book deserving of the title Otyokwa. Although the task of managing both yearbook and newspaper staffs was extremely difficult, even athering the tribe at times when she seemed to be more of a mother to 20 overgrown brats than a teacher, adviser Josie Kinard somehow survived. Teach- er's aide, Mrs. Alicia Perez, did much to help the staff in anyway she could and although her efforts seemed to be taken for granted, there were times when things would not have been done were it not for her. Striving to lighten the financial burden carried on through the years, the staff sold M 8a M's, and dressed up on Halloween in an ef- fort to promote the sale of S. A. cards and yearbooks. Inexperience played a major role in many of the difficulties suf- fered by the staff as only one- fourth of the students had actual experience in yearbook produc- tion. Yet, with a little luck and help from fellow POW WOW staffers, deadlines were met. Giving up weekends and holi- days was not unusual for the staff for, regardless of anything else, this twenty member crew had to meet deadlines. Through numer- ous frustration, unwritten copy, conflicting opinions, and continu- ous hours of hard work, the year- book staff strived to finish what they had been so anxious to begin, the 1981 Otyokwa. 1980-81 Otyokwa staff: Front row: Jim Coulter, Julie Casillas, Lydia Villalva, Mrs. Josie Kinard fAdviserl, Mrs. Alicia Perez fAidel, Lourdes Rodriguez, Brenda Barton, Cindy Duran, Frank Ordonez.

This program benefited 50 Ysleta students this year and has won some honors for the school. Besides studying animal science, FFA students learned leadership skills, plant science, and soil science. They also learned agriculture mechanics which in- cluded welding and woodworking. Gut- side of class, these students participated in livestock shows and judging contests. Other extracurricular activities were lead- ership contests and FFA conventions. The future farmers competed in five livestock shows this year. These shows included the Texas State Fair, the El Paso County Fair, and the Southwest International Livestock Show. At the Southern New Mexico State Fair, Mary Ivey was awarded a second place ribbon for her lamb and Kathy Blan- co's lamb recieved a fourth place ribbon.

F.F.A. 47 Future Homemakers Ysleta High School began 53 years ago. However, it wasn't until 40 years later and that boys were eligible to join homemaking classes. None made a big deal of boys finally being able to join this class, what did make news then was the offering of a new class to Ysleta students. It seems people gave importance to girls entering activities which are usually for boys, but it was not quite the same thing the other way around. The 61 member club no longer selects an FHA beau since it is not only for girls anymore. However, all the officers in FHA are girls. Through the years there has been more than one change in the ho- memaking department. There no longer is a District Wool Contest as there was in the late 60,5 and Homemaking IV isnit offered any- more. 312 students make up the total enrollment in Home and Family Living, Child Develop- ment, HECE fHome Economics Cooperative Educationl, Home- making I, II and III as well as Home of America FHA, not just for girls Economics. In 1973 there were 431 stu- dents in homemaking and in 1979 there were 425. Mrs. Kathy James gave some reasons for this de- crease in students. She said that students have more electives from which to choose from, there are many required classes, and Ysleta has less students now, however, percentage wise there aren7t less students in homamaking classes. This year the Homemaking De- partment is working on a new pro- ject with the March of Dimes. Eastwood High School and Ysleta are the only schools involved in this. The program is called HEALTH BABIES CHANCE OR CHOICE in which students teach other students on how to keep a baby healthy. Basically Homemak- ing teaches six thing, flower ar- ranging, nutrition food prepara- tion, child care, nursing, clothing and parliamentary procedure. The FHA officers are as follows, President- Blanca Gonzalez, Vice Presidents- Cinthia Black, Linda Herrera, Secretary- Patsy Munoz, Historian- Alfa Lopez, Treasurer- Elvia Montellano, Student Council Representative- Rosie Lopez.

Band A five year old dream comes true .X K ,Q , 'F 1 ,liliii , A l - 5, N, i , si A 5. will I ii it J 'Q Keeping busy throughout the year, the Ysleta High School band worked productively together. As the year progressed from half-time shows to symphonic concerts, the band members aimed for a high stan- dard of excellence. Hours of dedi- cated practice developed the talents of band members to an unexpected height. An important part of every band's year is marching contest in the fall. This year the band recieved a first division rating. This was the first such rating Ysleta has recieved for band since 1976. Long hours of marching and playing practice were the major contributing factors for a first divi- sion rating. This ratings makes a band eligible to be a sweepstakes winner, which involves recieving a first division in both marching and symphonic contest. Contests were not the only activi- ties of the band. Late in the summer, the band began marching practice. The Lulac parade, which was held the weekend before school started, was marched by the band. They also performed at the weekly football games during the fall, marching at half-time and playing during the game. The band also performed at the pep-rallies. Fund raising projects, including the Enchiladas supper, were organized by the booster club. This helped the students earn their own money for the band trip. The band was planning to travel to Dur- ango, Colorado in April for a sym- phonic contest. Besides the work of the 130 band members, a lot of time and effort was put forth by the band directors and many other supporters. The band di- rector was Mr. Richard Burton, who was assisted by Mr. David Marcum. The drum-majors were Melody Hutchins, head, and Lillian Tellez, as- sistant, who led the band on the field. The band officers included President- Carlos Archuleta, Mike Ochoa, vice- president, Secretary Joy Nicholou- pous, Treasurers Gracie Chaves and Rocio Velencia, Boy Representative Luis De La Rosa, and Lillian Tellez, girl representative. The band sweet- heart was Laura Saenz and the beau was Toby Lozano. Above: Drum Major Melody Hutchins dis- cusses directing style with an Eastwood drum major.

Concerned about others, the Tri- bal Scream and area schools joined together at a second annual benefit concert, held November 25. Up to 3600.00 was raised. The perfor- mance helped an Ysleta District band director pay for some of his cancer treatments. The 23 member stage band kept busy performing at the annual beau- ty pageant and traveling around feeder Junior High schools. The per- formances they gave for the junior high schools, helped the band's re- cruitment program.

The performance was so well accepted that they were invit- ed back in late October to perform for Mr. Walter Mondale outgoing Vice-President of the United States. The 12 member band, under the direction of Mr. rating at contest held Thursday November 6, at the El Paso Sun Bowl. David Marcum also attended conventions and nursing homes throughout the year and gave performances during and after school. It's a neato-kadido group, weire all like a second family to each other, because we spend so much time together, said Patsy Almeida. Being in the band takes up a lot of time, the girls have to compose, memorize, and practice all of their songs.

Tribal Scream-Marimba Band 53 Choir Singing at the top of their lungs! During the springtime of 1980, the Choir competed in two con- tests and recieved excellent rat- ings in both of them. The contests were the Solo Ensemble and the Choral Festival. ln the Solo Ensemble, groups of more than one were allowed to compete, but no more than 26 persons per group. The Solo En- semble contest enabled the Men's Quintet, Men's Ensemble, and the Women's Quintet to recieve 1's, Madrigals recieved a 2. Bart Plum- bly recieved Superior ratings in the Solo contest. The Excellent ratings went to Gloria Rosales, Vivian Lopez, Veronica Alonzo, Patricia Aguirre, Eric Mildon, and Peter Mena.

Drum Corps has received eight first division ratings out of the last ten years. Leading the organization suc- cessfully was Head Drum Major- ette Terri Hopkins who was assist- ed by Linda Archuleta. Under the direction of Mr. David Marcum and Assistant Mr. Richard Burton, Drum Corps performed at half- time shows during friday night games, Honored Ex-Assembly and during November marched in the Thanksgiving Parade. They also attended the Annual Marching Indians Banquet held to honor both the Band and Drum Corps members. lt was held at the Horizon City Country Club. Hawaii was the goal set for Drum Corps' yearly trip. Each girl was required to earn 700 dollars to be able to go. In order to raise this amount of money the girls sold Christmas corsages, candy bars, luminarias, and individual fund- raising projects.

The relatively small size of the string ensemble has much to do with its unknown existence, as it includes a total of eight dedicated members. These eight students have gone through at least six years of unending devotion to their stringed instruments.

Last year, orchestra re- ceived an excellent II rating in All- District competition. Violins and violas do not only play classical music from Beetho- ven and Brahms. Besides the fa- vorite classical, students enjoy playing anything from movie theme songs to country.

Masque and Gavel S The world's a stage Being spooks at a haunted house sponsored by a local radio station, initiating new members with a punk rock party and going through an entire school day with painted and speechless mime faces were some of the distinctive ways which made Masque and Gavel unique. Together they practiced during school and on Fridays until almost midnight to prepare for forthcom- ing tournaments. The team trav- eled to local high schools compet- ing in various speech and theater events. With 20 members, an increase in membership, Masque and Gavel set out to bring recognition to Ys- leta High. ln do so, Laija and Co. got together and produced a Christmas program for the chil- drens ward at Eastwood Hospital and brought happiness and cheer to the children. Masque and Gavel 59 R.O.T.C. marches at a stronger pace R.O.T.C. Department did not es- cape the force of change. Eight years ago, the department underwent one important change, allowing girls to enroll in R.O.T.C. as members, not just sponsors. However, once they enrolled in this class, boys and girls were required to tryout for special units offered in the Reserve Officers Training Corps department. Stu- dents in R.O.T.C. were active in the color guard, rifle, or the drill team. The color guard raised the flag at all the home football games and at the pep rallies. They also presented the colors at the U.T. ElPaso football games and did a presentation for Saint Anthony's Church in Anthony, New Mexico. CSM Carlos Martinez was the leader of this unit. Two other specialty units were the girls and boys drill team of 26 mem- bers. The varsity boys team was commanded by Gabriel Enriquez, and the B-Team boys were led by Jose Guadian. The girls varsity drill team was directed by Tariba Rodri- guez. All of the drill teams participated in the 400th anniversary of Mt. Car- mel Mission. They also participated in a drill meet competition at Eastwood High School and a drill meet at Riverside High School. The rifle team, which consisted of seven members was led by Hector Garcia. They participated in rifle tournaments with schools from both the Ysleta and El Paso School Dis- tricts. The winners at these tourna- ments were the people with the top shooting scores. The R.O.T.C. program was head- ed by Colonel William Reidy, W-3 William Warfield, and Sgt. Richard Jensen. Colonel Reidy was the Sen- ior Army Instructor and is in charge of all R.O.T.C. at Ysleta. He was Assisted by W-3 Warfield who was in charge of Military IV's. Sargeant Richard Jensen was the instructor of the Military llls and Illis.

Realizing that ,practice makes perfecti, Grchesis members at- tended summer practices to devel- op technique and stamina, which would fully unfold their talents as dancers. Meetings were held bi-weekly during the summer to establish rules and to unify club members. To raise money for club t-shirts, a carwash was held, The club also returned to their traditional colors of blue and gold and the constitue tion was slightly revised. At an early October meeting, Jim Akers was elected beau, which entitled him to be master of ceremonies at their spring recital, planned for the latter part of March. ln December, Orchesis per- formed at the Preliminary Beauty Pageant.

The Loretto Dance Festival, to which Ysleta was invited to attend and compete was set for February 4. The com- petition was to include dancers from all over the city. With so many activities in which to participate, producing an out- standing recital became a chal- lenge to members, who could look back on a successful year and for- ward to an even better club. Athletes get it together Lettermens' Association, a time- honored tradition at Ysleta, saw an increase in membership in 1980- 1981. President Jim Akers ex- plained, 'tEveryone's more enthusi- astic, weire doing different things. We've gotten together a lot. Perhaps more than anything else, the club stressed bringing back the image of the Ysleta High School ath- lete , according to Akers. Their short-range goal during the year was helping to buy bleachers for the base- ball field. To raise the capital needed, skat- ing parties were held, To do their part for the community, Lettermen helped to sell mistletoe for the handi- capped prior to Christmas. The pen- ny-a-vote system used to elect sweet- heart and beau also added to the club treasury. Francis Harmon and Al- phonso Carr, respectively, were elected to these titles.

Orchesis-Lettermen 63 Hello Demon-goodbye Mickey Mouse Like a small band of wayfaring gypsies, approxi- mately 80 seniors and two class sponsors, Mrs. Susan Telehany and Mr. Enrique Rodriguez, gathered their baggage, pillows blankets and other such necessities at 4 oiclock Friday morning on May 8 as they boarded buses on their way to Dallas-Ft. Worth. After many years of traveling to Anaheim, Califor- nia and spending an entire day with Mickey Mouse and other Disney cartoon characters, the annual senior trip to Disneyland was changed to Six Flags in Dallas-Ft. Worth. Because Disneyland has been visited by so many families, it was said to have lost its appeal to the average teenager. To some it was a welcomed change, while others seemed totally indifferent, but the total response was good. Many seniors looked forward to the trip as it was in their own backyard and it gave seniors a chance to get away from the hectic days nearing graduation, There were mixed feelings about the change from Disneyland to Six Flags as some students felt it was not quite worth the cost or the exhausting trip. The price of the trip was considerabley less than last year at only 70 dollars total cost which also included tickets to the rides in the amusement park and it took approximate- ly 12 hours to get from El Paso to the Dallas-Ft. Worth area, about six hours less than a bus ride to Disney- land. Senior Nite was the featured attraction which lured many to join the multitude who signed up for the trip. High school seniors from all over Texas would be at the park from about five o'clock in the afternoon to four oiclock Saturday morning. lt was not so much the change of the trip to Six Flags which attracted so many to go, but a last chance to spend some time with close friends that would be parting all too soon through graduation. interested. f -1 I ,fr-'-S . 4 . .

Each year during February students are inducted with a ceremony and dinner. The students are award- ed with a certificate of membership. Dr. Haskell Mon- roe was the guest speaker for the ceremony held at Monringsige Mall. On Graduation Day, National Honor Society stu- dents could be distinguished by wearing gold lapels instead of last years gold sashes.

These get togethers allowed mem- bers to plan projects such as hall decorating for Homecoming. Juliols Mexican Restaurant hosted a formal induction dinner for four new members on De- cember 13. Qualifications for the honorary Spanish club were quite steep. Students were required to have at least a B average in their overall grades along with having taken one year of Spanish and been en- rolled in their second year of Spanish. Their motto All Together served as a reminder that their main objective was to someday master the Spanish language in or- der to bring people of different cultures closer together.

Working towards professionalism Their ability to do their job well and contribute more than their share to publications gave this small group of journalists an honored place in the national organization of Quill and Scroll. Although in past years the Ysleta chapter has been relatively inactive, this year was a hectic one for the club. Induction for eight new members from both news- paper and yearbook staffs was held in early Octo- ber. After induction all fifteen members began prep- arations for the annual beauty pageant. It was up to the members to organize the entire pageant by ad- mitting contestants, getting judges, providing music and decorating the stage. The money from the pag- eant was used to help the publications department with any financial necessities. In an effort to organize projects and try to help publications financially, Quill and Scroll set aside a weekend in Spring to pass out flyers announcing the sale of past yearbooks accumulated throughout the years. Quill and Scroll also organized the annual journal- ism banquet at the end of the school year.

As she stared, stunned, at her blank answer sheet , she realized that the test questions didn't even look remotely familiar. Her brain began to swim in panic. Her hands became clammy, and she felt her stomach begin to turn to a tightened fist As a tear slipped down her trembling cheek, she tried to calm down. Ever felt that way? During adolescence, stress be- comes common because of grow- ing responsibilities placed on a young adult and feelings of inade- quacy and not measuring up to standards set by peers. Although stress is not a disease, if it is combined with other factors, such as poor eating habits, it may create conditions in which a dis- ease can take hold. According to Newsweek fApril 21, 19801, an in- crease in illness is sometimes caused, not by stress, but by the attitude of a student toward his work and surroundings. Psychology Today flVlarch 198Ol names the brain and its re- markable and dangerous capabi- lity of self-deception as one of the underlying causes of a wide range of stress-related disorders, includ- ing ulcers, asthma, heart disease, Curriculum and essential hypertension thigh blood pressure with no apparent physical causel. This self-decep- tion may interfere with the normal feedback that permits the brain to regulate the body's functions. ln the long run, we may be better off trying to modify the causes of stress rather than tuning out the body's danger signals. ln handling stress, some researchers claim that the key is a strong network of so- cial and family ties. However, not all stress is bad for the body. Sometimes, it can even be helpful. Stressful exper- iences are an inevitable part of liv- ing. If childern grew up deprived of them, they would not have a chance to develop serviceable ways of dealing with life, says Richard S. Lazarus of Berkely. At Ysleta, brief interviews with students and faculty members re- vealed that there are varying rea- sons and degrees of stress. One type of stress among stu- dents stems from the competition that takes place outside the class- room. Popularity, owning nice clothes, and belonging are goals that are sometimes set, unrealisti- cally, by many high shoolers. In a sense, these goals are status sym- bols , indicative of a person's suc- cess thus far. Competitiveness is more clearly seen among seniors because of the many honors which can be at- tained, such as Top Ten, Home- coming Queen, Mr. and Miss YI-IS, and Brave and Maiden. Because of the prestige accorded to these honors, competition becomes sharp, and friendships often be- come casualties under the strain of an election. Vivian Lopez, a veter- an of several elections, remarked There is a lot of competition, mostly between girls in clubs. They try to be above one another, clothes-wise and money-wise. Just because they might be better off, they try to be different. l definitely feel it's bad among students to be this wayf' The stress caused by striving for popularity is also matched by the strain that grade-conscious stu- dents feel in trying to maintain high grades. Because of our highly competitive society this aspect of stress may in fact be a good way to measure oneself against others. Advanced placement classes pro- vide this opportunity. Senior Lourdes Dominguez ex- pressed these sentiments, Com- petition is something that we as students, are exposed to constant- ly. lt's a healthy process because we live in a very competetive world, and once we are out of high ,-If-Z-,1 ff.,-,.

She continued, For ex- ample, when students compete on a scholastic level here in high school, it may not be as strenuous as it will be in college, but the students will be getting prepared. According to Counselor Mrs. Mar- garet Traylor, when a student be- gins to complain about being in an accelerated class, he f she is actual- ly saying that the class is too diffi- cult for himfher. The largest amount of stress, however, generates from a stu- dent's home life. Mrs. Traylor commented that she has noticed that students, especially Mexican- Americans, are very involved with their families, and are affected by a change in their home life. Often- times, a bad economic situation at home creates feelings of anger and resentment. The strain put on par- ents to provide for a family can cause them to become short-tem- pered, or preoccupied with finan- cial matters. Another rift in a teen- ager-parent relationship can be brought on by the growing inde- pendence that many teenagers feel. Caught between childhood and full-fledged adulthood, most young people begin to resent the rules and curfews imposed on them by parents. Lack of commu- nication results, further straining relations. ln any case, the end re- sult is poor performance at school. Drugs, although not the rage they once were, continue to be a means of stress. Deciding whether or not to take drugs, or experi- ment with them caused tension among some teens, along with the persistent feeling of being left out or considered different. Among girls, relationships with National Hospital Statisics released in 1978 approximate that .3f7o of deaths are stress-related. their boy friends are often a cause of stress. Because of the openness of todayis relationships, pressure has been reversed. ln the past, there was pressure on couples to maintain a reserved, discreet rela- tionship, but there is now pressure on a couple to become very inti- mate, both emotionally and phys- ically. In the case that a pregnancy should result, embarrassment is added to the feelings of tension that both the young woman and young man may already be exper- iencing. Stress takes many forms, and can be harmful or helpful, accord- ing to the situation and how well a person is able to handle the pres- sure. The key is in being able to control feelings of pressure and anxiety, and seeking professional help when one feels the situation getting out of control. Stress 73 Attention focused on the best is. A After striving for three years to graduate early, Bobby Bigler was honored as the 1980 valedictorian. Outstanding students were rec- ognized May 6, 1980 in the J.M. Hanks auditorium. During the Awards Assembly students also received awards for UIL competition, drafting, and perfect attendance. Students who went to Lubbock for UIL were Do- lores Gross, for Editorial Writing, Norma Sierra, Headline Writing, Lydia Villalva, News Writing, Lourdes Rodriguez, Ready Writ- ing, Ted Karber, Ready Writing, Erin Flowers, Poetry Reading. For shorthand were Mary Alvarado, and Brigette Solis, who also went to state competition in May. Lori Rubio and Robert Zapata were honored with a Youth Ap- preciation Award.

However, the English Depart- ment also had something else go- ing for them and the student body this year. That was their video re- corder and a color television. The money to buy the recorder was raised when they had the comedy Taming of the Shrewi' starring Elizabeth Taylor. The television was purchased by the school in the fall of 1980. Both the video re- corder and the T.V. set were used for the student body to enjoy the programs that were taped. Some of the movies that were shown were The Scarlet Letter, and Ro- meo and Juliet. 'li Creative writers had the oppor- tunity to learn from professional writers. In early October, Mr. Phil- ip Dow, a renowned poet, visited the Creative Writing class. He spoke to them about poems being a way of expressing their emotion- al feelings. A poet writes what he is thinking at the time and later goes back and expands his thoughts. He also spoke of stu- dents' injecting their individual style of writing and not trying to imitate famous poets like Robert Frost. The following poems are ex- amples of students work in cre- ative Writing He was Mine He was mine, in the spring. He promised we would last forever. We walked as the sun set. We cared, and loved, and I held on for all I could. But as seasons change, so did he. Then she came in. Her eyes were as blue as the sky, Her lips as soft as rose petals, Her hair as gold as the sunshine. His look was mine no more. His lips, his heart were hers.

English-Creative Writing 81 Students look ahead to higher scores Improved attitudes towards Math and Science classes have be- come noticeable in the last three years. Doubling on math courses be- came a common thing among sophomores. Among these stu- dents who took two math courses during their sophomore year was Robert Garcia, who was a junior during the 1980-81 school year. Robert explains, By taking Alge- bra II and Geometry my sopho- more year, 1 was able to take Trigonometry my junior year and Pre-calculus my senior year. I feel that I need as much math courses offered to prepare for college. Along with taking two math courses, sophomores also took a science class, either Biology or Chemistry that same year. While math and science classes were required for sophomores, seniors could get through their fi- nal year without such courses. Seniors who were planning to take the ACT or SAT college ex- ams continued to enroll in math courses in preparation for the ex- ams. As a result, these students' scores did not suffer as much as those who did not take these classes. Students had no regrets about taking extra courses.

Curriculum 84 American History teacher, Mr. Calvin Cowden, like Mr. Arellano, has traveled to many different parts of the world and countries in which he compares our system of government to theirs. Also, he shares experiences he has had in those places. Mr. Cowden often shows films to his students. He exhibits souve- nirs he has brought from countries that he has visited and explains something about them and the country from which it comes. In if teaching American History, it is also important to teach something about other nations in order to un- derstand and appreciate ours more. Mr. John I-larris gives his students different leaflets pertain- ing to the subject discussed. Each teacher may have a par- ticular thing they focus on in their teaching, but all teachers usually give research to make students get involved and learn from each oth- er. Whether it be history or any other course offered. Due to the change to the semes- ter system many students, fsen- iorsl were required to take Gov- ernment a whole year instead of two quarters, that were manda- tory in previous years. With 1980 being an election year students in both Government and American History classes took part in class debates and simula- tive voting.

Hard-working and talented girls worked daily during class to im- prove their ability in jazz, ballet, modern, and spanish dancing. The primary concern of dance students was to produce an entertaining dance recital. Beginning modern dancers could be distinguished by their ma- roon color of leotard. As first year students, they concentrated on de- veloping their flexibility and co- ordination. The intermediate class consist- ed of forty members. Their rou- tines contained more complex moves as they graduated to a more advanced level of dancing. After three years, or four in the case of many seniors who began dancing as freshmen, a student was placed in the advanced class. Leaps, turns, and stamina were only a part of the required regi- men. As an assignment, they were required to attend any dance per- formance, and turn in reports on different aspects of dance as group projects. As recital neared, practices were scheduled to allow time for final preparations. Below: Advanced dance students review a number from the musical West Side Story for their recital.

Luckily for Ysleta students, classes were of- fered to prepare them for the problems they may encounter. The classes were Modern Prob- lems, People and Work, and Home and Family Living. Mr. Mike Sherman encouraged students to take the Asvab Test, and Interest Test, which aided stu- dents understanding themselves and making more knowledgeable decisions for the future. Economics was taught in Mr. Sherman's class, People and Work. Students learned the value of money and how to use it in a sensible way. Guest speakers helped students understand the workings of economics. The stu- dents appreciated all that was done for them, which helped them in the future. Rape, an important subject, was given priority by Mr. Jerome Mi- lam. Students were instructed on how to prevent a rape and how to oc- ap- re- ac- cope if a rape had already curred. In the past five years, proximately forty rapes were ported to Mr. Milam. But cording to Mr. Milam, local police, and rape authorities, for every rape that was reported, ten went unreported. Mrs. Nancy McLain prepared students for life in a family by training them for skills to adjust with the different types of rela- tions involved in homemaking. One method Mrs. McLain used to make pupils aware of the re- sponsibilities of homemaking was an egg project . The students carried an egg for a week, and were not allowed to leave it in their locker, nor were they to put in their pockets or purses. They were supposed to treat this egg as if it were a live baby, which meant that the students had to find a baby-sitter if they were to go out. This project was supposed to teach students the responsibilities and caution of early parenthood. fx Hifi 15553 ., ge Q ,awgj iiiiiilllf HM Above: Home and Family instructor, Mrs. Jean Jordan grades papers after a hard day s work Industrial arts overcomes obstacles Summer proved to be a bad omen last year for every student joining the Art Department.

Dealing with criminal justice, it helps students planning on jobs as policemen, attorneys, social workers, or even FBI agents. Mr. James McChesney, teacher of Police Technology, says that guest speakers contributed greatly to the suc- cess of the class. Students are more interested in hearing from an expert employed in a certain field than someone trying to explain it, or the students reading about it in a book.

A step which will one day lead to a position on the newspaper or yearbook staff, or if the student wished to persue his ca- reer in journalism or advertising. Students in Journalism I classes set forth to reach this goal. Learning to write editorials, straight news and short news stories was only half the job. Creating layouts and doing pas- teups along with selling ads or taking pictures was expected from almost every staffer in Room 106. Basic skills can only be taught, but a true journalist learns from himself and others. Journalism I students, under the supervision of newspaper, yearbook adviser, Mrs. Josie Kinard, sold S.A. Cards, candy and calenders through- out the year.

From UII.. competitions in oratory speeches to one act plays, the stu- dents proved themselves experts in their own ways. Tournaments every other week kept them busy throughout the year. Early in the school year, Saul Fuentes placed first in Spanish Reading. Participating in a Halloween Haunted House for the benefit of the March of Dimes was most ex- citing. Portraying ill-tempered dev- ils and ill-fated hospital patients was to be remembered by all. An old abandoned house on the cor- ner of Schuster and Mesa was used for the event. Initiation was also a very impor- tant activity this past year. The Drama Club members had a Punk Rock Partyn in which the members and initiates alike were expected to dress like Punk Rockers. l I 5,7 ferent facial expressions.

Slowly I began to pace down a suburban obstacle course. I crossed the street so as to avoid Mrs. Mendi- vil's Doberman Pincher. As I contin- ue through my journey, I begin to feel less and less dainty as I slowly run out of breath, my legs begin to ache, and sweat rolls down my back. Nearing my house, where I could end this mad search for a perfect phy- sique, I stopped and wondered, Just why am I doing this? Getting into shape seemed to be what everyone was trying to do: if it was not jogging daily it was swim- ming tif one had access to a pool, of coursel, biking, working out at a local gymnasium, or doing sit ups on onels living room rug. Virtually anything was tried when trying to get rid of those extra inches. Going from fat and fluffy to phys- ically fit took lots of determination. While trying to stay away from tempting sweets and junk food was not always easy. Commercials which showed all the gooey sweet confections in living col- or did not help in the fight against fat. It just seems automatic, comment- ed a 16 year-old girl that when I sit down to watch t.v. I have to have something to eat! Karmen Byers, an instructor-coun- selor at International I-Iealth Spa commented that, as far as eating went, it was not how much one ate but what a person ate that caused an increase in weight. In other words, if a person were to pass up a large orange for a small piece of apple pie a la mode he would inevitably gain weight. Some people become so infatuat- ed with losing weight through dieting that they may resort to fasting. Miss Byers stated that fasting was never recommended for the sole reason that it makes people weak because the body does not receive its neces- sary nutrients. Mademoiselle IJuly 1978i was quoted as saying that if diets really worked, 'Lsixty to seventy million Feature 104 I CJQIO zsgiptsyf Q if .1F7f 1:. -I-:.Lai4!a fa .3 . iff at-. ir - ' '-sv . s , A ' YU I i ff I TTT : LL N 0.

The truth is that dieting on the whole has an extremely high failure rate festimated around 9OC7o which may be one reason why weight loss is big business. New diets and books that extol them will remain on the best seller list as long as people continue to seek some magic formula of ef- fortless way to shed extra pounds. Dieting alone is not the answer, not the complete answer, recondi- tioning the body through exercise plus a well-balanced diet is the right answer. Teenagers, along with almost ev- eryone else, have become more aware of their bodies. They want to look their best but they also want to remain as healthy as possible. Exer- cising regularly helps a body sleep better because the heart is pumping better and more than enough oxygen is being sent to all parts of the body. Rachel Martinez, who attended a health spa, said, I donlt need to lose weight but I still have fun exercising. I sleep better and I feel good about myself. One ingredient that no one who is serious about getting into shape can do without is will power. Anyone can lose weight-if they really want to, stated a health counselor. When it comes right down to it, it's really up to you. No one will follow you through life to tell you what to eat and when to exercise. Encour- agement also helps as no encourage- ment leads to no exercising. So, when a mildy plump person stares back at you from a full length mirror or you have not seen your feet for several months, more than likely it is time to put down the twin- kies and speak to your doctor about weight loss and weight control. xt ,Tl f ,jf 1 W IL . .- fl If X N V tgir- eQQQbQQGQWwQwwb lQZ6kmMUQV 0966s f17e61p1'pr6c1'1k-fipg 61?9l'SC6OOf 'S602 6fe6A-s fbro DGPUIUUQVEL7OQffCk69S6C69749660 bQfZgZUbc6 1's12,66s64p 600' cfose 1?1e6OQ-6429s H476 our GO esfs 6roQ96f 6060r fo Jig-X913 6906 Sc600Z Oefe 6fLg2Q?6Afbefibberoeafhzze Z6e46Qsq6oQbe wk-IOQ 601' 146-ep 6!w6ys sfooo' by as every w6eo w6s 601' oors We were oo! 0040 63:-6f1bg to new 1'66t w661' we 66o'g6f?peQ'1b 661'1'!e fzpere scores l27Qft'61'9Of I-S' Our 6617 SJZIUJS 6 --. les were f06961' 00 1'6- .

The Foxes romped over the Tribe 22-0. The Indians and Foxes played to a sea-saw game with nei- ther of the teams being able to score before halftime. The Foxes broke the ice in the early minutes of the third quarter, when they scored with an 80uyard burst up the middle. Later in the game the Foxes recovered a punt for a 60 yard touchdown, Ysleta's only thrist came in the first quarter when the Tribewas on the move but its drive was stalled on Jeffer- sons' 17 yard line. Whatever the Indians did wrong the first game, they did right the second game. The Tribe massed over 300 yards and crushed the Austin Panthers 20-7. The Indian -defense continually threw the pan- thers for key losses and recovered two interceptions. Vic Abreo scored the first two touchdowns and threw for 133 yards in the air. The Indians returned to the res- ervation the following week to bat- tle the Andress Eagles. But the In- dians dominated the first half, but the Tribe could -not capitalize on the Eagles mistakes.

Ysleta made one last des- perate try to overcome the Eagles by means of a 40 yard field goal attempt which was short and in- sured the Eagles the victory. Ysletas' last game before the districts competition was against the Mayfield Trojans. Bad luck seemed to follow the Indians from previous games as the Tribe was tripped by the Trojans 14-13. The score was tied at halftime 7-7 and stayed' that way until the waning moments of the third quarter when Jerome Gardner of Mayfield scored on a 55 yard touchdown dash. Ysleta batterd back in the fourth quarter and scored on a 34 yard touchdown stride to Ken Slawson. The Indians then decided to go for the win instead of the tie and went for a two point conver- sion. The undefeated Parkland Mata- dors opened the district portion of the season, but faced stiff competi- tion as the Indians sneaked by the Matadors with 14-11 score.

The highest score attained this season by the lndiansiwas against the Riverside Rangers, when the Tribe raked up 30.points com- pared to Riverside 12. With this win, the lndians took sole posses- sion of the first place in the district 2-5A race. The victory gave the lndians 2-0 in 2-5A, a half game lead on Eastwood. I The half-game lead and first place bidding quickly disintegrated the following week when the Tribe ventured north of I-10 to battle the Eastwood Troopers. The Indians were plaqued with mistakes and the Troopers shutout the Tribe 19-0 all of which were scored in the first half. Rosswell Goddard was the next team the Tribe had to battle and the headlines the next morning would read Goddard 20 Ysleta 19. The name Soccoro Bulldogs quickly brings to mind their 0-5 district record and the Tribe kept their winless season intact as the Indians used their long plays to enroute to a 20-6 win. The whole season relied on the outcome of the next game and if the Indians were to beat the unde- feated Bel Air Highlanders they would have to play their best game of the season. Unfortunately the lndians committed two fatal turnovers, both which resulted in scores for the Highlanders as Bel Air romped over the Indians 39-7. Before halftime, a Bel Air touch- down with a fumble by the lndians on the ensuing kickoff gave the Highlanders two quick scores with- in 20 seconds of each other and a 25-7 halftime lead.

El. Paso's Don Haskin disci- ple, the Varsity Cagers had high hopes of being on top, but found their expectations hard to meet during pre-season games. For the season opener the Indi- ans hosted the Austin Panthers. The Tribe had a comfortable lead of 29-11 at half-time, but the Pan- thers stole the show during the -third and fourth quarter, which re- sulted in a 46-44 win. It was the same story for the next four games. The top ranked Irvin Rockets was the closest the Tribe came to beating. The Rock- ets escaped with a 46-44 win. In the first game of the Andress Toumament the Indians went into double overtime with the Jeffer- son Foxes. The Indian round- ballers were in the game only until the final buzzer with the scores of 69-68 in favor of the Foxes. From then on it was downhill for the Tribe as they lost to both Irvin and Mayfield. Getting accustomed to new coaching techniques and excessive fouling were some of the reasons some of the games were lost. Ac- cording to senior Thomas Pe- droza, We started off on the wrong foot. We could have beaten every team we lost to, but we couldn't get our act together. Getting their act together, with a strong man to man defense, and offensively working inside out passingthe ball till they got a lay- up or at clear shot, the Tribe whipped the Fabens Wildcats 66- 39. 9 'Sports 1 10 'W , Mwst T w. .L L is 33 3 F 1 Top Left: Clayton Wells and Agustin Ortega struggle for a rebound against the Eastwood Troopers.

Starting practice in early August, the girls Varsity Volleyball team pre- pared for a long hectic season. De- termined to win the district title, the girls found their goal hard to reach. Opening the season with a victory against Austin with a score of 15-12 and a second score of 15-11 got the team to a good start. In the El Paso Tournament the team looked quite sluggish against Soccoro, our team is very good but could have played much better, said Coach Tony Oro- peza. The second game was lost by the Andress eagles by Scores of 15- 11 and 15-12. This helped the team to bring home a second place trophy. Over at the Denver City Tourna- ment, Ysleta placed fourth out of twenty-four who competed. Graduat- ing seniors include Francis Banda, Gloria Corona, Carol Arellano and Dora Mesa. Gloria Corona, who was chosen All-District player said, It came to me as a surprise because as individuals everybody played equal, though it's up to the coaches who gets picked for All-District, for they know who played more consistent.

The clock finally struck twelve ion February 24 when the Girls Varsity Basketball team fell to the Irvin Rockets 74-50 in the first bi- district game for both teams. The Indians breezed thru the district portion of their schedule boasting an 8-0 record until the Riverside Rangers tripped up the tribe. The Indians lost two more games in succession preceding that, but none were district oppo- nents. The girls won the regular-sea- son title and therefore all the Indi- ans had to do was win the post season tournament playedgat Ys- leta to get bi-district champions. But the Bel Air Highlanders thought it time to gain revenge and edged the Indians 43-49. Be- ing that the Highlanders won, an additional playoff game was forced. The teams battled it out in overtime before Ysleta triumphed 41-38. The win gave Ysleta its first ever district championship in girls basketball. The win also set up what would be the fourth game in six days for the Tribe, that being the bi-district encounter with 1-5A Irvin Rock- ets. The Rockets totally dominat- ed the game leading 23-6 after the first period.

Led by six returning lettermen, Boys' Varsity Cross Country team finished fourth in district competi- tion. During spring training the Indi- ans ran an average of 31 miles a week to prepare for up coming meets. The Bel Air Invitational hosted the first meet where the team's expectations were shattered as they placed nineth. Senior letter- man, Luis Montes placed 18th and Alex Garcia placed 30th among 160-165 runners. The most anticipated meet was the Ysleta Invitational. Having the advantage of being at home was just not enough for the Indians as they took eleventh place. After the disappointing eleventh place the Tribes didn't give up and their motivation started to build up. At the Bowie Invitational the Indians stoled an outstanding sec- ond place. Ysletas' runner-up showing was anchored by Luis Montes, Crispin Salais, and Alex Garcia. It was most pleasing to Luis Montes who placed eighth with a time of 11.12 after running thee miles. The reason why we did so well at Bowie is because we were psychied out because district was pretty close. said Salais. District competion came sooner than expected for the Tribe. Ex- pectations of coming in first place fell apart. In the last 80 yards I just lost concentration and could not make it. said Crispin Salais. Lost of concentration seemed to be the main problem as the Indians placed fourth. As for the B-teamers, they placed fifth in district competition. Among the better runners were Bert McCellon, Junior Velenzuela, and Harvey Moreland. The only girl who oran in all Cross Country meets was sopho- more Terry Sierra.

According to Mr. Antonio Oropeza, Ysleta had a good team, the problem was it lacked depth and people . The same girls had to enter one event after another. Other schools, having a larger team could get each girl to concentrate on one event. Making it to the regionals were: Celia Israel, Rosie Contreras, and the 800 meter relay team consisting of Loretta Flores, Benita Felder, Irma Lara, and Lina Sotelo.

As is customary the Gymnastics Federation changes the complu- sories for all high school gymnas- tics team every four years. In or- der for the teams to compete it was expected that they have the capacity as well as ability to learn the new routines that were set down. , Routines included, girls working with four pieces of equipment which were beam, uneven bars, vaulting and the floor routine. The boys used the pommel horse, high bar, parallel bars, vaulting, still rings, and the floor routine. It was also required that two boys and two girls worked with each piece of equipment in order, to compete in the meets. ln a meet held February 6, at U.T.

Coach Ruiz explained that Ysleta previously went unknown, but this year teams looked Ysleta more seriously as district contend- ers. Senior girls were Lisa Cooper- backstroker, Blanca Delgado-but- terfly and Jill Egger backstroker. As well as the boys, the girls had a strong season.

Swimming 127 Sports 128 Varsity edges district After hours of hard practice, the varsity baseball team came close to winning the district title. Last year, there was a balance of four good teams, which made competition tough. These teams included Eastwood, Riverside, Bel Air, and Ysleta. Baseball season opened up with a game against Burges which Ys- leta won 7 to 6. Andress beat the diamondmen in a close game 3-2. The final score showed the Indians had put up quite a fight. The dia- mondmen played ten district games, they won 5 and lost 4 plac- ing them third in district. Probably the most important games was against Riverside. The Varsity played a strong game which, in the end, showed Ysleta 4, Riverside 2. After beating Riv- erside, the team came close to winning the district crown. A con- quest over Eastwood would have secured the 2-AA championship for the Indians. All hope of attaining the district championship was lost when the final outcome of the game re- vealed a disappointing 7-0 loss for the Indians. Coach Smith thought there were some players who tried a lit- tle harder to help the team. They were David Jurado: pitcher, Ser- gio Hernandez: left field, Jimmy Dindinger: first base, Danny Gon- zalez: catcher, and Hector Fe- math: shortstop. The- effort and the enthusiasm displayed by the team and the coach paid off by placing Ysleta third.

Kennedy, a changing social structure, and the music of the Beatles. On that date, singer-songwriter John Lennon was gunned down in New York City. The assailant was identified as 25 year old Mark Da- vid Chapman, and no apparent motivegwas cited. It an- ironic ending, indeed, for a -manf who had dedicated much of life and songwriting talent to spread his hope for a bet- ter world. . . Lennon's impact was first felt with the arrival of the Liverpool- based Beatles musical group, of which Lennon was often consid- ered to be the leader. Oftentimes collaborating with fellow Beatle Paul McCartney, Lennon pro- duced lyrics which sent the pulse of an American generation racing. The style of music, dress, be- Nobody really knows how much the Beatles and John Lennon did for us.

From their first album in 1964 to their last in 1970, the Beatles were the top pop music group in the world. To this day, the Beatles remain unri- valed as one of- the most popular and influential tiands to appear on the musical scene. Throughout this turbulent peri- od in American history, Lennon was regarded as a hero, and as the hope for a better tomorrow. With Lennon as their ideal, young peo- ple protested various causes by sit- ins, and peaceful demonstrations. news today This baffled the previously sedate older generation, who were un- used to protests of any kind to- ward the American way of flife. When the Beatles split up in 1970, John Lennon did not fade into obscurity. With his wife, Japa- nese-born Yoko Ono, albums were produced that were sharp and cynical. He continued sto protest violence and the Vietnam war. Then, as rapidly as he had become a part of the world-wide scene, he dropped from sight. In 1975, he With the passing on of John Lennon, we have the traumat- ic, standstill, the destruction of a timeless and genious mind, that of a poet of the six- ties, seventies, and eighties. Though Lennon is gone, we will always be enhanced with the priceless legacy of record- ed music he left behind. Gen- erations of the future will ac- knowledge, revere, and even worship Lennon: of this we can all be sure -- liberal- mlnded or not liberal-mind- ed! , Instructor Mr. Fernie I Orrantia began a self-imposed exile, dedi- cating himself entirely to the up- bringing of his son, Sean. It was in 1980 that Lennon was once again returning to the public eye. With Miss Ono, he released his last album, Double Fantasy lt was an album, according to Len- non, designed to convince people to produce your own dream. Unfortunately for Lennon, and for us, his dream for a better world will remain simply that, a vision. His death brought the entire world into a long, sad period of mourn- ing. More than 100,000 people gathered in New York's Central Park to pay their final respects, and at least two suicides occurring immediately after his murder were -- oh, boy directly attributed to his death. For the millions that grew up with Lennon's music, he became a part -of their past - and present. But lwhyQ has Lennon's death so affected the 70's and 80's genera- tion? Why is it that almost sixteen years after the Beatles were first seengon the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, do they continue to ba a rock? powerhouse, in terms of musical validity?

Beatles impact, we watched in awe as our' elder siblings became engulfed in Beatle- mania and meandered through the house, unceasingly humming the latest Beatle tune. It represented a happy and prosperous time. Throughout the 70's, the hope persisted that the 'Fab Four' would reunite, not only for the mu- sic they would produce, but for the era and mood that they would recapture. Now, that hope is stilled. If any good has come from the shattered dreams of an American generation, it is a renewed cam- paign for gun control. Amid the worldwide mourning for Lennon, America was dubbed the eternal land of meaningless crime by an irate British editorialist.

Besides the expenses that just about every school-supporting student faces, such as football, basketball, and volleyball tickets, Homecoming garters and corsages, and other high school luxuries, the Senior has other financial burdens just be- cause itfs the Senior Yearf, First come senior pictures. Be- cause most seniors want a memo- rable cap and gown picture for themselves and their relatives, they've already spent at least S5100 before the first day of school, when they are officially seniors. Next comes the traditional class ring. A decent ring runs about S70- and that's if you're not ex- pecting gold- maybe gold-filled. Just about the time the pictures and ring are paid for, Juan Acosta Leticia Acosta Manuel Acuna Maria Aguilar Virginia Aguilar Lorenzo Aguilera Ruben Aguilera Lourdes Aguirre Manuel Aguirre Mariana Aguirre David Akers James Akers Arcelia Alarcon Ernest Alarcon Luis Almanza Magdalena Almanza Patsy Almeida Eva Almeraz People 148 comes the yearly Junior-Senior Prom. For guys, this creates a bigger burden than for girls. The guy must pay eight to ten dollars for tickets, and about S25 to wear a hot, uncom- fortable tuxedo, not to mention the five to ten dollars he has to pay for his date's corsage. At the beginning of May, when you finally start saving your mon- ey again, you remember the senior trip that you've been waiting for since you first learned what a sen- ior was. The least you can expect to pay is S100- and that's without the fantastic souvenirsg such as sunglasses that are way too big for your face and T-shirts you'll prob- ably sleep in. When you get home without a penny to your name, another ex- pense is waiting for you . , . your announcements. The final remind- er to friends and relatives that graduation is approaching, and yes, a gift would be nice. An- nouncements cost about 525, and that's only if you send them to the people you think will give you the best gifts. About two weeks before school ends, and you're feeling great be- cause your senior year has been such a success, one final activity before graduation approaches- Senior Banquet. To find out if your classmates have voted you Most Conceitedf' or Most Un- likely to Succeedf, you pay from eight to ten dollars. After Senior Banquet and you've scrounged a few extra dol- lars for graduation night, SUR- PRISEQ- you get to pay 37.50 for a gown you'll get to wear once, and a cap you wouldn't want to wear more than once. Senior year does finally end and all the spent money will be forgot- ten, but the memories of that last year will live forever.

It was the direct result of actions taken in March of 1973, in which Mexican- American students contended that Ysleta High School did not offer classes or programs geared to- ward Mexican-Americans. ln addition to the Mexican- American Studies class, bilingual, bi-cultural books were added to the library, and more Mexican- American teachers were hired, in addition, more Mexican-American CUHIUFEI CIEISS CliSCOr1fiYILISCl classes were offered. Its first year of existence, the Mexican-American Studies class had an enrollment of approximate- ly 28 students, according to Mrs. Margaret Traylor, Counselor. Mrs. Traylor also commented that there have never been more than two classes of Mexican-American Studies. The purpose of the Mexican- American Studies class, according to instructor Mrs. Rosamaria de Casas, was not to make radicals or militants out of the Mexican- American students, but to help them assimilate and acculturate E , 'D if i ,ve , '- 75:2 ' T P it l into American society. This was to be achieved by teaching not only Mexican and Mexican-American history, but folklore and the role of the Mexican-American through- out history. Mrs. De Casa also stressed the contributions of food, architecture and art by Mexican- Americans to the magnificence of American society. The close to 60 students ex- pressed dismay that the class was disbanded. Toribia Rodriguez, a senior student who had been en- rolled in second period Mexican- American Studies, said, I liked it a lot, I wanted to stay in there so badly because of the teacher lMrs. de Casasl. l wanted to iearn. She lMrs. de Casas? really encouraged us. Asked about the cancellation of the class, Toribia remarked, 'il felt very bad. l'm very unhappy in the class l'm in right now. W ,na- iff JP f-vw Economics fam Whaddya mean?'?l No senior color?? After a three-year battle to con- tinue the ten-year tradition of sen- ior color portraits in the yearbook, the war was lost as the 1981 Otyo- kwa went into production. The en- emy: lack of fundsL To understand how important a role money plays in the produc- tion of a yearbook, background in- formation is necessary. The core of theproblem lies in the dismal sales of Student Activity Cards. For eighteen dollars, a Student Ac- tivity Card entitles its holder to 16 issues of the Pow Wow, to the Tepee Finder fpublished as a sup- plement in alternate yearsl. and to the Otyokwa. However, most stu- dents do not take advantage of the bargain offered in this packet. As of January, 726 S.A. Cards had been bought by the student body and faculty. Total population at Ysleta tfaculty and staffl includ- ed approximately 2400. Now begins the complicated task of figures and sums. The goal of 1980-81 was to reach an S.A. Card sales of 1,000. At S18 each card, this would yield fl518,000. This sounds like more than enough for a yearbook, but don't be de- ceived. 1 Of this money, 394,000 goes for the Pow Wow. This leaves 514,000 for the Dtyokwag a low-budget yearbook, with no graphics, very little color, and a plain cover is priced at 315,000 - minimum. Photography equip- ment must also be supported by the remaining 314,000 Photo- graphic equipment, which includes paper, film, and chemicals runs up a bill which usually totals close to 'i p2,000.' This leaves approximate- ly S12,000, which is not enough to produce a yearbook. This is also known as a deficit, and is what the Publications Department has ex- perienced since 1977. Another supplement to the Pub- lications income is advertising. lt provides between 352,000 and 33,000 to boost funds. The task of staging both the Preliminary and Final Beauty Pageant usually yields a combined total of S600 - if every ticket is sold. How did this all begin in the first place, you might ask yourself. In 1976-1977, Ysleta began its Fifti- eth Anniversary celebration. Ac- cordingly, the yearbook that year was a special and expensive .- undertaking. When the bill arrived for the yearbook, it was close to 55,000 more than sales allowed. To make matters worse, the year- book arrived in early June, and sales were not as good as they might have been, had the book ar- rived on time. To compound the situation, when school re-opened in September of 1977, there was no longer any freshmen class. As any economist or store owner may verify, the power of the purse , which the consumer possesses, is not to be underestimated. In 1977- 1978, four hundred sales were lostg and so it has been that the deficit begun in 1977 has not yet been overcome. For the last three years, the bur- den of upkeeping senior color has fallen on the shoulders of the sen- ior class. They must provideat least 374 of the money needed lS1,500ll . Understandably, this has caused a question of priority: Should we maintain color in the senior section?,'l or Should we makean outstanding class gift?.ln- dividual donations are usually tak- en at registration, but even these have waned, and during registra- tion for the 1979-1980 school year, donations were virtually non- existent. According to Mrs. Josie Kinard, Otyokwa and Pow Wow adviser, she informed Mr, Cruz Rios, then senior-class sponsor, that the deadline for receiving cash or check worth 31,500 was late Au- gust or early September. This is because McBryde's Studio, who is contracted to take and print the senior portraits must be informed whether pictures will be printed in color or black and white by Sep- tember 15. Color sections in the yearbook must be submitted to the company by December 1. Need- less to say, neither cash nor check was received, and plans were made for a yearbook with no sen- ior color. However, the blame should not be handed to the senior class offi- cers or sponsors, nor to the Publi- cations Department. A steadily worsening situation plus lack of concern funtil it was too latel on the part of 1981 seniors is at fault. Perhaps some good did come out of this situation. Hopefully, fu- ture seniors will begin working now toward reviving this ten-year tradition. Seniors 153 N011 l2ll'QGSt OI' Sm8ll6St Cl3SS,l3Ut... Every graduating class searches for something that will distinguish itself from all other classes, wheth- er it be the smallest, iargest, or most spirited class to graduate, But the Class of '81 will hold one unique trait that no other class will ever be able to claim. It is the first class of Ysleta High School to graduate in only three years. The reason for this is because of the openings of Valley View and Ysleta Junior High. Since both schools were built to contain fresh- men, the class was dissolved at Ys- leta High. For the most part, students were disappointed about the de- layed first year of high schooif' Sam Johnson, one of many stu- dents affected by the change, said, I'd rather have been here four years. Therels more continuity in sports if you begin your freshmen year at a high school rather than a junior high. Betsy Murillo, another member of the graduating class, said, Three years at Ysieta hasn't been enough. You need that extra year to get accustomed to the change. l feel if we had been here four years we'd be more ready to graduate. On the other hand, most of the faculty were pleased with the change and felt it was an improve- ment. Mr. Abe Ramirez, Vice Prin- cipal, said, I like it better without the freshmen. We eliminate 8 of the problems, problems caused by immaturityf' Counselor Danny Blanco said, I think it's better when students start as sopho- mores. They're more mature intel- lectually and socially and can ad- just better. Though the Class of '81 had only three years of high school memories and Ysleta tradition, they left with the same pride that all graduates from Ysleta High leave with . . . the pride of being an Indian!

The Optimist International, which has clubs worldwide, decided to set up a program to commemorate out- standing students who break this stereotype. November 10-14 was the date set for Youth Appreciation Week, the purpose of which was to demonstrate to citizens within the community the positive contribu- tions youth are making toward the betterment of mankind. Chosen to represent Ysleta this year were seniors Lydia Villalva and Carlos Rodriguez, juniors Edna Diaz and Bart Plumbley, and sophomores Martha Guerra an Eddie Castillo. As Mr. John Harris, American history teacher and Lower Valley Optimist Club mem- ber, commented on the winners, These aren't the best students in our school but only a representa' tive of them. These well-deserving represen- tatives were chosenon a basis of most nominations turned in by teachers. The Lower Valley Opti- mists held a breakfast for the win- ners from various schools and the Ei Paso clubs held a banquet for ali the winners in the city. The seniors of the group received trophies and ail received the satisfaction of be- ing recognized by their elders as outstanding students and citizens.

Senior Class President Lupe Chairez, along with Vice-President Betsy Murillo, Boy Representative David Akers and Girl Representa- tive Loretta Lynn Gutierrez worked hard to make this past year a special one for hundreds of seniors. This year's senior sponsors were Mrs. Susan Telehany, and Mr. Enrique Rodriguez. They con- tributed a great deal of time and effort to make all of the commit- tee's projects a success. Fund rais- ing proiects involving car washes and candy sales took up most of the members' time. The profits from these projects were used to pay for the traditional senior gift to the school. Promoting spirit during pep ral- lies included passing out maroon and white ribbons and displaying the class flag. This year, unlike past years the senior trip was to Six Flags and not to Disneyland. There were mixed opinions on this issue but the ma- jority of the students liked the idea of Senior Nitel' at the park and the cost was less expensive. Organizing the senior banquet, preparing for graduation and ar- ranging for the Senior gift signified the end of another year, but it would be the last for the class of 1981. At the end of the year, the Sen- ior Steering Committee had ac- complished what they had set out to do- make this year a memorable one for all Seniors. Progressing Making it to a higher ranking Ysleta was not eligible for the 2-4A district crown in any sport, including footbail and basket- ball. The reason was because Ysieta Independent School Dis- trict was no longer in District 2' 4A. They became a part of Dis- trict 2-5a. The University of interscho- lastic League in Austin, Texas decided to raise both the Ysleta and El Paso school districts to a higher class. According the J .D. Partridge, Supervisor of Athletics, Health, and P.E. for the Y.I.S.D., the U.I.L. changed the classification of the districts because they wanted to drop class B. There- fore, they moved all the other districts up one. If the district was a B, it became an A. If the district was an A, it became a 2- 4A, and so on. Partridge added that the cias- sifications are figured out by the enrollment of each school. If a school is to qualify for 5-A, it has to have an enrollment of at least 1310 students. Varsity football coach John Ladner said the change to 5-A had no effect on either the rules or the schedule of theteams that Ysleta athletes would play. The change was done through- out the state of Texas, but has been in use in the surrounding states for some time.

And what are you going to do? You are a young person with the whole world in front of you, and no will let you forget it. Good old Dad has been saving a special place for you in the family busi. ness since you were just a babe. Mom thinks it's a good idea and although she would never dare to push you into anything you would not want, it would make her very unhappy if you did not join your father. Uncle Ben says you should look into the armed forces where boys llike youl become men. Aunt Maria would prefer you to get a steady job, find a nice girl, and settle down. Cousin Fred talks about all the good opportunities training school has given him. Maybe it could do the same for i l i E 1 Salas Salas you. Some ofoyour friends are talk- ing about going to college and how it's the only way to go, if you want to make something of your life. The more free spirited of your peers suggested you take a year off and just burn around. You certainly have been given plenty of choices. Suggestions, ideas, and opportunities are so nu- merous that by the time you get to the last member of your family and go through all ot your helpful friends your head will probably be spinning off your shoulders. They do not mean to be nosey or overly inquistive. The question seems to be a fairly natural one to ask some- one who is going to graduate. What nobody realizes is that not all seniors have their lives planned, few even decide what to do as far as college until a few months be- fore graduating. By the time a per- son does graduate, it is reasonable to assume that he is so tired of hearing that one question that he just stops caring. It is not always seniors who are asked this question. Even .the un- derclassmen are asked the .same question when they enter high school. About the only advise that can be given is to stay calm when someone turns to ask you about your plans after graduation. And what are you going to do after you graduate? army ' WM im, ' -W .W f.

Preparations were made dur- ing the year for the 1980-81 Junior- Senior Prom. During the busy and exciting week of Homecoming, the Junior class en- tered and placed first in the hall- decorating contest. Members of the steering committee decorated the west wing hall which consisted of In- dian arrows aiming at a Riverside Ranger. Each maroon arrow had a football players, name written with silver glitter. Meetings were held every Tues- day after school to discuss fund-rais- ing projects. These projects included selling Cracker Jacks, class t-shirts, and the tradition of sweeping the ln- dian stadium early every Saturday morning.

In D.E.C.A. there were nine Juniors among 24 students learning about and working in distribution of goods. There were 94 students working in food service through I-l.E.C.E.g 34 students, including six Juniors learned industrial skills through l.C.T. V.O.E. included 15 Juniors who learned office skills. These programs prepared students for the real business community after high school. Welders, cosmotologists, store clerks, cooks, and many other students involved in different occupations flowed from these programs into our community. V I I I .

As for Mr. Milam it was a ff W., 89+ 2:38327 . disappointment to see the change from letter grade to number grades occur. l-Ie says It hurts a lot of students especially the students in resource. I-le stated that as it was last year resource students had a hard time passing their classes, now with the change their grades were lower. The change from quarter system to semester had both an advantage and disadvantage. The advantage was if a student failed one six weeks a student had two more six weeks to bring up their grade.

It was a cloudy day as we left El Paso on our way to Alpine, Texas. My mom did not really want to go, but my father insisted. My mom is not a meteorologist, but she kept telling us that the weather was going to get bad and that we were not going to be able to make it back. My father was joking saying that it was going to snow and that we were going to get snowed in at Alpine, but he kept on going. The further we went the darker it got. The mountains were covered with fog. It started to sprin- kle, but very lightly. We got to Alpine at 4:00. Later that evening at about 6:00, it started to snow. Sunday in the morning, as we looked out the window, a thick white blanket averaging about 16 inches covered the land around us. The roads were icy and covered with snow. No one could get in or out of Alpine. Even though we had the opportunity to make snowmen, have a real snowball fight, or just enjoy a walk in the snow, it was hard for a person raised in dry, summery El Paso not to feel stag- nated around 16 inches of snow. The fact that we were immobile made all of us impatient, especially, you guessed it, my father!

Many teenagers turn to drugs or alcohol when looking for a solu- tion. Yet, at times when these so- lutions did not seem to work, many searched for an answer which would carry them far be- yond the after-effects of alcohol. Their search ended with Christ. Inspired by the Youth for Christ club at Riverside High School, sev- eral students decided to form a similar club here at Ysleta. Lupe Chairez suggested the idea and asked Mrs. Cecilia Flores to spon- sor the club. At first, it was to be an all-girl club, however they felt anyone should be allowed to join a Chris- tian club. Teachers as well as stu- dents were encouraged to join, for admission into the club required no initiation. Approximately 20 people be- came a part of the club. Mr. John Harris, as well as Mrs. Ruth Han- sen, contributed greatly to the club Surprisingly, many teenagers found the answer they were looking for not in a bottle but in their local church. People by helping students with any per- sonal problems they might have had. Meetings were held after school on Tuesdays in room C-6. Mem- bers attended these meetings only when they were able. During the course of these meetings, mem- bers sang praises to the Lord, studied the Bible, and prayed for anyone whom they felt to be in need of prayer. The club also had picnics and other activities in order for members to get to know each other and have a little fun. Many members spent Friday evenings at Jesus Chapel where they sang and tried to help people with problems such as drug abuse. When asked why such an orga- nization had not been formed earli- er, Mrs. Flores replied that it was not until now that students have become so aware of the need for Christ in their lives. The Christian club offered a place in which everyone was wel- comed, said Junior Angelica Acosta.

The main purpose of the fence was to separate rival schools, but somehow the rule only applied to a one-way crossing, not both. Football fans observed that peo- ple were allowed to cross from the south side to the north side of the stadium, but people coming from the north side were not allowed to cross to the south side. Secondly, the fence was to reduce or abolish fights among students, which in effect didn't, since some fights did occur. Thirdly, it was supposed to reduce crowded conditions into equal propor- tions, but since students could cross from the south side to the north side, this ulti- mately resulted in the north side being more crowded. Security guards enforced the rule the first three games but stopped after re- peated futile attempts. sin ' i ' i 1 ,, if ' v Q A '?fl'V AL, 5, g .wt 'v54fhv,'isfwu.elQY4yss i x Nifty -' ' ,f Q es Q 40 , X X 545 Y4XXBX kX he Illustration by Rachel Martinez.

With a license there is no more getting stuck in the back seat, where four people are already sitting.

The next big step will be getting your parents to buy you a car. Driver's Education is one of the best things that a 16 year old can take because it will lead you straight to a driver's li- cense.

Transportation was a big problem faced by sophomore students, since most had not acquired a drivers license. Obtaining a ride from a friend or catching the bus was the only solution in most cases. Walking was the last but most common way of getting to school. Sophomore students who rode the school bus could easily be spotted by their quiet- ness and their tendency to ride in the front of the bus. Juniors, knowing more of what was going on seemed to talk and joke around more. Also, with more than half the Juniors having a driver's license, most of them got together after school or borrowed the family car. Sen- iors, with the majority driving, were hardly ever seen riding the school bus or walking home. As the school year continued, Juniors and Seniors made sophomores realize how im- portant owning a car really was. Em -lf lap- With transportation being a setback, many sopho- mores found themselves waiting in line after the 3:30 bell rang to wait for the school bus.

Edna Diaz like many other teenagers turned to church to fulfill her social needs. She was involved in the puppet ministry sponsored by Centro Vida and attended Ysleta Baptist Church. She also had a job at Hotel Dieu Hospital that occupied most of her time. Bart Plumbley was interested in music and was a member of Ysleta High School Band and Choir. ln the past years, Bart received superior ratings in vocal solo contests and band solo contests.

For Lillian Tellez, fashion shows and modeling were exciting and interesting jobs for the school year. Lillian was a member of the Teen Board at Dillards, along with 37 other girls from local high schools. Lillian was required to go to fashion workshops and meetings during the sum- mer and early fall. She also participated in fashion shows held at Dillards. The teen board met once a month and had frequent service projects at the store. Although Lillian does not plan to enter the field of modeling, she enjoyed her job. She considered it a challenge and a pleas- ant change from school life.

Many will not be seen until their class reunion, some will never be heard from again, and still others will remain close to Ysleta, where their high school memories can be relived frequently, and will always be as clear to them as a sparkling gem. Taking a look around us now, it seems difficult to imagine that our diversified peers will someday be full-fledged members of the real worldf, But only time will tell. The qui- et, shy boy that sits three chairs behind you in English class may turn out to be a lawyer who is constantly in the public eye. And the plain-looking girl whose name you could never remember may one day be seen on the covers of world famous magazines. Life takes many twists and turns, and after graduation, many opportunities, hardships, obsta- cles, and challenges will present themselves. Continuing education on the university level is a path which more and more high school stu- dents are beginning to travel. A university diploma can open many doors for an ambitious per- son who hopes to earn a salary which will place himfher in a mid- dle or upper-class economy brack- et. For others, the nomadic, disci- plined life of the armed services will be an ideal way of life. Be- cause of the chance offerred to advance in rank, to earn a good salary complete with medical benefits, and to receive a good sized pension check, the military attracts some young men and women who are looking to serve the country and gain security at the same time. Some graduates will soon be- come husbands or wives, fathers or mothers. Through their spouse or children, they will find fulfill- ment and happiness. A career in the home is also being recognized Ten years from now- What of our high by economists as a profession which has a significant value. Do- mestic engineers,', as some home- makers prefer to be called, implies that mathematics ffor balancing a budgeti, economics fbuying goods for use by the familyi, social work funiting a family and keeping har- mony between membersi, and countless other talents fcooking, sewing, first aidl are required in this 24 hour a day job. Homemak- ers also receive an added benefit that many other jobs do not offer, love. Maybe this is why marriage and raising a family have contin- ued to be an important part in the lives of many men and women, century after century. Finally, there are always a rare few who go through life as dab- blers. Life for them will be a smor- gasbord of jobs, a nibble here and there until a better opportunity presents itself. Their prevailing motto seems to be variety is the spice of life. school dreams? These are but a three of the parting ways that graduates take, there are a million more. As we continue our progress into the twenty-first century, more and more jobs are becoming available in every area imaginable. The means for developing potential are available to almost anyone, the only prerequisite is desire. And al- though it seems that desire may be lacking in some of the classmates around you, donft be fooled. After all, you never know about that sophomore girl who wears knee socks to school, and eats her sack lunch alone every day in a particu- lar corner of the cafeteria.

Taking the test as Sophomores, students increased their chances to earn a 1000 dollar National Merit Scholarship. These scholarships are given to the stu- dents with the highest P.S.A.T. scores.

Barraza-Contreras 'And the beat goes on' Eighteen sophomore girls were highly honored at the end of their freshman year by being selected into the All-Girl Drum Corps. In order to be part of the organization girls from Ysleta Junior High and Valley View Junior High had tryouts which were held after-school in March of 1980. The girls were carefully judged on memorized music, sight-reading, rolls, their notebook, and Solo and ensemble ratings. Judges were Mr. Rich- ard Burton, Director of the Indian Marching Band, Mrs. Alma Hill, Director of both Ju- nior Drum Corps, and Mr. David Marcum, Head Director of Drum Corps. To be in Ysleta's All-Girl Drum Corps is an honorn said sophomore Carmen Gonza- lez. Carmen knew the hard hours she had to put in everyday after the relief of having made Drum Corps. She said that she en- joyed being in Ysleta's Junior Drum Corps but that it was not as challenging as Varsity Drum Corps has been. Getting up early in the morning was the hardest part of all. Carmen concluded by saying that she felt it was rewarding because she has met different people and had the opportunity to go on trips. lt was all worth it,', said Carmen.

You are ' ' In the past years, students were recom- mended by teachers in order to be in Hon- ors English class. With changes being made in the semester system, English teachers decided to administer tests to determine if a sophomore was qualified to take Honors English. One of the three tests taken was the Texas Assessments of Basic Skills lT.A.B.S.l, another test given out was the reading test, mainly to get an idea of where approximately students stood in their reading level. At the beginning of this year, teachers gave sophomores an essay test on different topics. After final scores of all three tests were calculated, students reaching above grade level scores were placed in Honors Class. The program was to encourage stu- dents planning to go to college, and to help stress individual work. Teachers teaching sophomore Honors English were Mrs. Pat Glancey and Mrs. Carol Logan.

Fierro-Gonzales 197 Policy brings courtesy drop Some members of the faculty felt that a student who is a courtesy benefits greatly. Being a courtesy teaches a student how to deal with other people, follow instruc- tions, and other skills. Skills acquired as a courtesy can be carried over to the busi- ness world. Due to lack of interest, and a new district policy, there has been a drop in the number of courtesies. An earlier policy on courtesies brought about the new district policy. The earlier policy limited teachers to one courtesy. Some teachers abused this by having from two to five courtesies. The principals then ruled that only department heads and school offices could have student office assistants. This change left many teachers with more paperwork to do and typing chores. Lack of student interest was another contributing factor to the decrease of courtesies. When given the choice be- tween having a home-study period or be- ing a courtesy, most students would choose home-study. Along with this, coun- selors were urging students to take as many solid courses as possible to accom- modate the recent 'back to basics' drive. Julie Alvarado sorts attendance slipsg one of her many duties as an Attendance Office courtesy. These duties helped prepare her for business deal- ings.

Most sophomores were financially able to get through their first year at Ysleta High School. They usually received an allowance of up to ten dollars for school expenses, such as lunches, and other ex- tras. Sophomore girls received their money by babysitting, and by doing chores around the house. The boys received their money by cleaning out house yards and by getting jobs at neighborhood stores sacking groceries. Most of their money was spent on var- ious fund-raising projects. Some of the items for sale were clothing, candy, and merchandise accessories. McDonald's also served as a drain for sophomore dollars. Whereas a cafeteria meal was 65c, lunch at McDonald's would cost between 31.60 and 33.50. During football season, money was spent on game tickets, and the food which inevitably followed. Finally, even loose change was donated to queen and sweetheart candidates who were elected on a penny-a-vote basis. i' 7: Financial situations found many sophomores look- ing for a job which usually was to no avail because of their age, but part time jobs were mostly had by students such as Ben Delgado who was enrolled in a school work program.

It seemed to be the classic example of supply and demand. As some times happens, the demand outweighed the supply. The Ysleta Teachers Association requested a 16.8 percent pay hike along with 15 other demands ranging from a fully paid health insurance program to regulated class size. It seemed that teachers from Ysleta High School who were polled were split between where the district should get the money to support the pay raises. Thirty- nine percent of the teachers polled said the district would need to get the money from raising taxes, while another thirty-nine percent said the district needed to reorganize its priorities. Three percent of the teachers said the district needed better management, 6 percent said it was the district's problem where they got the money, and 10 percent had no comment to the question. Eighty- four percent of the teachers polled belonged to one teacher organization or another, and seventy-one of the teachers agreed with the actions of the Y.T.A., and nineteen percent said they disagreed. Ten percent were undecided. Answering to the question Would you walk out if called upon? , 52 percent said they would not, while 35 percent said they would. Thirteen percent were undecided.

Some had to start moonlighting while some even had to resort to beginning a new ca- reer altogether. In January, Ms. Su- san Waters handed in her letter of resignation and ended a longtime teaching career. After twelve years of teaching with a bachelors degree in English and History and a masters in Public Administrations, Susan Waters be- gan a career as a paralegal at a local law firm. She is doing legal research for Grambling, Mounce, Sims, Galat- zan, and I-Iarris. Not only is she mak- ing more money but she considers it a professional advancement. Most teachers don't teach for the money. They teach for their own enjoyment, but with economy in the mess that it's in, enjoyment just isn't enough. Ms. Susan Waters commented, ln twelve years of teaching, I've not had a greater group of kids than this year's seniors. I've faith that they will ultimately confront life on their own terms. I thank them most sincerely for making my last teaching exper- ience an occasion to be treasured. Anyone who ever knew Ms. Wa- ters certainly agrees that she's a fine teacher and will be missed on the reservation. an -1 I il-trim ii.. . ik x -it-.tl Fernando Orrantia-English II Betty Parks-Typing I,Il Evans Pendergrass-I.C.T.

Enrique Rodriguez-Student Activities Director Manny Ruiz-I-Iealthg Swimming Irma Sanchez-Counselor i Educators - in every sense Journalists, as educators, face primarily the task of gaining ac- ceptance for their medium. With scholastic journalism being an elec- tive course, support from educa- tional administrators is difficult to obtain, making adequate funds scarce, and existing money harder to utilize. When budget cuts have to be made in the system the elec- tive courses are the first to get the proverbial ax, and high school journalism has been no exception. Usually working with the sys- tem, fighting it when they had to, and changing it when necessary, two educators who continually sought recognition and improve- ment of scholastic journalism, Ys- leta's own Mrs. Pearl Crouch, and Mr. DeWitt Reddick, U.T. Austin professor both died this past year. With their deaths, the journalistic field lost two or its most dedicated professionals. Perhaps the significance in their deaths lies not in death itself, but in the solid accomplishments they achieved during their lifetimes. The lasting influence that they had on their students is immeasurable, but nevertheless, tangible. Their awards are almost too nu- merous to mention, but during the course of their careers, thier most treasured rewards must have been, at least to them, self-evi- dent. The pride of giving a cre- ative student the gift of words, self-expression and the ability to mold ideas into a form that can touch the lives of others must have been enough. Why else would two bright, talented, and extremely skillful people put love of career before larger monetary gain, more liesure hours, and less stress? As a teacher here for over 25 years, Mrs. Pearl Crouch should forever hold a dear spot in the hearts of the students at Ysleta High School. Under her leader- ship, and direction, a creditable publications department was built. For those who did not know Mrs. Crouch, it is sufficient to say that without her, the book that you are now reading from would not exist. Mrs. Crouch served as director of publications not only at Ysleta High School, but as District Co- ordinator for the Ysleta Indepen- dent School District. Her goals in this capacity was to reach as many students as possible through planned curriculum workshops, and conventions. She served as 1979-80 Vice President of the Co- lumbia Scholastic Press Associ- r fs- 4 ,gr fi? ,, Mrs. Pearl Crouch and Lorraine Estrada, 1976-77 Otyokwa managing editor go over advertising information. Educators 218 aff iv, ation, and as Regional Director of the Journalism Educators Associ- ation of America, supervising ac- tivities in five states. She was also one of the founders, as well as a charter member of the Southwest Scholastic Press Association, and as organization aimed at the im- provement of journalism in the Southwest area. Mrs. Crouch be- lieved in education as a tool to unlock talent, and because of this belief, she remained active in the Texas State Teachers Association, the Texas Association of Journal- ism Directors, and the local chap- ter of Delta Kappa Gamma, an ln- ternational Society of professional journalists. As a pioneer in his field Dr. Dewitt C. Reddick founded the In- terscholastic League Press Confer- ence, held annually in Austin, Tx. He served as the conference's un- paid director for over 22 years. Through his efforts, the ILPC be- came a major forum for young journalist's ideas as well as a show- case for young talent. Seminars and workshops were held at the convention, allowing those who sought knowledge ample opportu- nity to gain it. Dr. Reddick served many years on the faculty of the University of Texas at Austin, and a small sampling of his former stu- dents can attest to his success. The include: Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson, Walter Cronkite, Liz Carpenter- secretary for public affairs in the U.S. Dept. of Education, and Bill Moyers, a prominent television newsman. Goals are instrumental to suc- cess, and perhaps it was the goal of these two educators to create an atmosphere in which journalism was finally recognized as a legiti- mate literary form, a state that could be regarded as the printed voice of students. Mrs. Crouch and Dr. Reddick stress the ideal that a personfs spoken word is effective only on those within hearing dis- tance, but the printed word can move the masses. The famous poet Emily Dickin- son called her writing a letter to the world. Had it not been for educators such as Mrs. Crouch and Dr. Reddick, countless stu- dents, with vital things to say, and new perspectives to explain might have been denied the chance to write their own letters to the world .

Mr. Denham, who became prin- cipal in 1962, the year Mrs. McClean began working at Ysleta High, said of her, She's more un- usual and more efficient than any- body. She's always the same, all the time - she never gets mad. She gets along with everybody. i The only change that Mrs. McClean has seen in students in 19 years is their dress and hair styles.

The program di- rectors involve the students in activi- ties whereby they not only learn, but have fun while doing so. Some activi- ties included the children in singing songs, reciting nursery rhymes, and attending the Circus Vargas with a group from Riverside. The child development classes worked with the children enrolled in the program, where they helped them in learning the alphabet, num- bers, colors, foods, and dressing themselves. These children also learned about tools, family, and the job roles of different community workers.

Each of these guards has his own section on the Ysleta Campus to patrol. Their working day starts at 7:30 and ends at 4:00 in the afternoon. At night the Ysleta Campus is not left unguarded. The night shift patrol men go on duty from 3:00 to 1:00 and 11:30 to 7:30. Ysleta students depend on these men to secure their cars and keep the Ysleta campus safe. These patrol men were relied on to do their job well by their head coordinator Pat Molero. While on duty Cecil Smitty was entrained in conversation with students. They found students interesting to talk to, because students are a major part of their job.

The citizens of this country called desperately for a change. That change came' when Ronald Reagan, the man for- merly known as a 'fwashed up actor who was too old to be Presidentn reaped the title of President of the United States. Twelve years of unending attempts at the Oval Office finally awarded Reagan his long-awaited prize. ln a landslide victorygof 483 electoral votes to 49, Reagan whisked an unhappyf Carter out of office. Ad- dressing the nation in his concession speech, Carter stat- ed, I promised you four years agofthat I would never lie to you, so I can't stand here today and say it doesnit hurt. As the Southern gentleman quietly took his leave, Washington echoed with the victory of President-elect Reagan. ' Reagan's main objective during the campaign was the economy. Bank lending rates went up as high as 20 per cent while loans grew relatively scarce. By March of 1980 unemployment on local levels went up to 7.5 per cent. As she unbelievably stared at her utility bills, one wide- eyed local resident said, It's crazy the way everything is going up. We're considered middle class and we're bare- ly making it. Numerous Americans felt that an effefi 'e President could handle the problems of a failing econo- my. Reagan's conservative views led him straight to Capital Hill. . At one point during his first televised address to the nation, Reagan stated that the economy-.was the worst mess since the Great Depression . Like a knight in shin- ingiarmor he began complete revision of the budgetfias he implemented an instant freeze on all Federal hiring and introdu-d a 10 per cent tax cut for private individuals. Hef used a sharp blade as he jousted through every departrrient clependentpn government supplement. . No other nation hasever equalled America's vast industrial power.

Rising gasoline prices forced many people to ex- change their gas guzzlers for the more fuel-efficient Community . . - again ports such as Datsun and Toyota. The increase in Japa- nese imports caused a sharp decrease in the American automobile industry. By April of 1980, 28 per cent of U.S. autoworkers had been laid off. The Ford Motor Co. reported a 1980 loss of 1.5 billion while Chrysler's future was dependent on a 1.5 billion Federal loan guarantee. With such a significant slow down of the auto industry, steel mills and rubber plants also suffered considerable reduction in productivity. In order to compete with foreign imports, Chryslerl established a line of fuel efficient, sub-compacts such as the K-car. Ford also developed two similar cars, the Ford Escort and Mercury Lynx. General Motors, on the other hand, had tens of thousands of unsold Chevies and Cadillacs in stock. Japan secured more than 21 per cent of the American market with such brand names as Datsun and Toyota. The United States, however, found it difficult to do the same in Japan. Henry Ford Il was quoted as saying in the April 28, 1980 issue of Newsweek magazine that the Japanese were certainly doing their darndest to keep the U.S. out of Japan. Adding that the American import in Japan might cost about 320,150 after customs officials added commodity taxes, warrant charges, preparation fees, and even other duties when the American dealers suggested price was 36,350 Although the economy and the question of energy resources were two of the largest issues covered during the campaign, the hostage situation was all but resolved. Election day marked an anniversary which no Ameri- can wanted to celebrate, the first year anniversary of the American Embassy take-over in Tehran, Iran in which 52 Americans were taken hostage for the return of the Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi who fled his country when the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini took over as head of the Iranian government. It was the first time in modern histo- ry that such a thing had happened with the approval of the government. The 366th day of captivity for the hostages marked the beginning of the end as the two sides began to haggle over final terms for the hostages release.,.Iran demanded an approximate amount of-5B12 billion in frozen lranian assets plus a forgive-all forget-all policy. Qnce again the hostage families vrere put through the agony of waiting for a possible faint glimmer of hope. That once faintglirnmergturnecl into a full cascade of joy- when, on their 444th day of captivity, the hostages were released. In El Paso, on the eve, of .January 20,1980, the star on Mount Franklin was no longer lit. Yellow ribbons colored all areas of the city as well as the rest of the U.S. and nations such as Germany which had given aid in releasing the hostages. The dark lll rn ountain signified what all America had been waiting for, the homecoming of 52 fellow Americans who were hailed as heroes and hero- ines upon their return. January 20, 1981 was a day to be remembered as the former- hostages began the first leg on their long awaited trip home and Ronald Reagan was celebrating his inaugu- ration. 1980, though, was known as the year 52 people missed. lt was an uneasy time for the United States which included many disasters both natural and manmade. In protest to Russia's invasion of Afghanistan, many nations joined the U.S. in boycotting the 1980 Summer Olympics held in Moscow. Some, including many ath- letes who had lost all hope of competing in the Games stated that sports were no place to voice political opin- ions. ln evidence of the Olympicis past experiences, this statement was rather difficult to believe. Three times-in 1916, 1940, and 1944- the Games were cancelled be- cause of war. The deaths of 11 Israelis by Palestinian terrorists in Munich in 1972 was tragic proof that the Olympics could not be said to be without political convic- tions. Since 1896, when the Olympic Games first began, they have been a political showcase for every nation which competed. The National Broadcasting Company CNBCJ who brought exclusive rights to televise the Games, lost about 9 milffiin and according to the March issue of Newsweek Levi Strauss 8: Co. had 12 million tied up in uniforms for the Olympic teams. g TheUnited States Olympic Teams were not left with- out settle piece ai the gold as the 1980 Winter Olympics rendered outstanding skaters gold medals. if seater Eric-Heidein obtained five gold medals for his experienced .expertise and agility on the ice. By far the most surprisingigoldffiiimedalists were the 20 mem- bers of the U.S. hockey team who managed to overpow- er the Russians in an unimagined 4-3 victory. Amidst chants of U.S.A.! U.S.A.!,' the teammates wrapped themselves in the American flag while well deserved congratulatory hugs were exchanged. They were the underdogs whose chances were slim to none of ever achieving a gold medal but with the whole nationbehind them, and a little heart, they beat the unbeatable Soviets.

Boiling mud overflowed, riverbanks flooding a number of houses along the mountainside and totally buried others. The national disaster was a reminder of thefcruelty of mother nature. Despite national disasters and economic problems, the United States managed to lure thousands of refugees and immigrants to its land of plenty. Capital Hill debated the issue of the endless lines of refugees who came in con- ventional ways such as boats or by wading across natural boundaries as the Rio Grande River. Because the numerous refugees were taking jobs at less the pay of what Americans would work for, they too became a part of the problem of our steadily worsening problem of unemployment. But Americans could not push back the countless number of boats which docked daily on Florida's Key West.

National 227 'City within a City' Once upon a time, in the Lower Valley, cotton fields and green patches of land were the only thing to be seen for miles around. Before sunrise fully awoke the sparsely populated community, the hum of tractors and farm machinery could be heard in the distance. A while later, children emerged from their homes on their way to school. Passing cars along the road were rare, and at sunset, the wholesome smell of the land filled the air. Many years passed this way, for the land was fertile and the people were hard-working. The inhabitants of this area were proud of many things. Ancient establishments provided them with a feel- ing of security. Nearby, the Ysleta, San Elizario and Socorro Missions stood as landmarks. The Socorro Mis- ll S ni Above: The Sun City Area Transit, or SCAT buses, were a frequent sight as they daily brought Lower Valley residents to and from work. Right: Addressing visitors at Ysleta Mission in the fall of 1980, El Paso Bishop Raymunclo Pena begins ceremonies celebrating El Pa- so's 400th Anniversary C1581-1981l. Community 228 sion had been built in 1682, while many years ago, on October 20, 1598, the Spaniard explorer Juan Onate reached the spot where the San Elizario Mission stands. It was to these sanctuaries that many Lower Valley residents went to offer gratitude and ask for a fertile crop. Because of the historical importance of the missions, many tourists came to visit. The peacefulness of the valley attracted them. The trickle of Lstrangersf which began to settle in the quaint land turned into a stream, then to a river of people. The original families found themselves crowded, and, slowly but steadily, their small Lower Valley began to grow. Where once the farm children attended either Cadwal- lader, Ascarate, or Ysleta Elementary schools, more and more schools had to be built so that the top-notch reputa- tion of education could continue. The corridors of Ysleta High School, attended by generations of people of the valley, grew crowded, and new high schools sprang up. Eventually, two junior highs were established. Bewildered, the Lower Valley residents looked around. Where their fields had once stood, there now stood row upon row of houses. Businesses of all types lined the streets, and cars were no longer a rarity, but an accepted part of everyday life. But to all residents, old or new, one thing did remain the same. The Lower Valley was still an integral, yet unique, part of El Paso City. Residents pointed with pride to the fact that Ysleta was the second oldest town in the United States, and the oldest town in Texas, when the Tigua Indians, still found in Ysleta, established the first mission of the Southwest in 1687. Although the people of the valley missed the old Ysleta, their little island, it became to them a new source of happiness. It became a 'City within a City.' Below: A picture taken from atop Ysleta High School exemplifies the rapid growth of businesses in the Lower Valley. 5 . 3,44 . . , iCity Within A City' 229 Daily bump and grind of city officials 'Child's play', 'A Circus', and 'Nonsense' have all been used to describe the City Council Meetings under the Tom Westfall Administration. Hence, it was both with awe and terror that I attended the City Council Meeting of February 17, 1981. Mayor Tom Westfall was not present. David Escobar, Lower Valey Alderman, acted as Mayor Pro Tem. Jim Scherr, Polly Harris, Joe Divis, and Pat Haggerty, aldermen, were present. The first order of business was to introduce six out- standing Coronado High School students and have them take a place beside an alderman. Various proclamations followed, including one for National FFA Week, in which Ysleta High School FFA officers participated. Following the proclamations, however, the entire meeting became a jumble of ordinances. Ordinances of every type were hastily read to the Council, and either approved, disap- proved, or 'tabled' Present en masse were reporters from various televi- sion stations. Perhaps because of the regularity with which they attend the meetings, the reporters seemed bored, even sarcastic, in their comments to one another. The same follows for the council members, whose attitudes seemed to be one of uninterested lawmakers. In retrospect of the shaking knees and butterfly-laden stomach I experienced while I awaited the meeting, I cannot help but feel our form of city government did not entirely fulfill the role of an effective city council.

Community 230 David Escobar, attorney, was elected to the position of Lower Valley Alderman in the spring of 1979. According to Mr. Escobar, the Lower Valley District begins at the Phelps Dodge Refinery on North Loop, and continues east, ending at the El Paso City Limits and south at the American-Mexican border. The following is an inter- viewhe granted an Otyokwa staffer. Q: What kind of changes have taken place in the Lower Valley? Escobar: There have been two changes, a tremendous growth of neighborhoods and subdivisions, such as Capis- trano, and many new industries - Brittania, the Victor Plant, and Billy the Kid. More are coming. Q: Have the changes been to the advantage or disadvan- tage of the community? Escobar: Overall, it's been good. However, one of the disadvantages has been the loss of the green valley ffarm- Q . Above: A solitary farmer upkeeps the Lower Valley tradition of farming and cultivating the land. ing areal. Q: Seeing the new valley, do you plan to remain here, and would you want to educate your children in Lower Valley schools? Escobar: Yes - definitely. We've got two major high schools here, and I might say that from what I've seen, it's a very good education. Q: Do you feel the educational standards have declined? Escobar: It's not like the old days. Ysleta has grown so much, it's overcrowded. There were maybe 120 people in my graduating class. We've got the same quality of teachers, but the personal touch is missing. I'm not blam- ing it on the teachers, it's just overcrowded. Q: Do you like what you see? Escobar: I love it - it's the greatest place. I was born here, I was raised here, and I intend to die here. Above: Lower Valley Alderman David Escobar grins at the humor injected into a City Council Meeting by a fellow alderman. City Council 231 Hello, Texas! Texas, the land where bigger is better, where cowboys still herd cattle, and where money gushes as freely as the oil. lt is a land full of the myth, mystery, and romance that has long been associated with the Lone Star State. Throughout the world the Tex- an is known as a free-swinging, wide-ranging personality. His pride in his state and its achieve- ments is barred by nothing. This pride is well-founded. lt stems from the fact that Texas was a nation before it became a state, and upon receiving its statehood, was proclaimed the biggest state in the Union. This claim was held un- til 1959, when Alaska joined the Uniong it is a point that Texans still find debatable. Oil, and the abundance with which it is found in Texas, was first discovered in 1866 and the major production of black gold began in the Twentieth century. The fame and fortune to be won by hitting a vein of oil inspired the legend of the big-talking, big- spending Texas wildcatter. Strug- gling against any and all odds for a big payoff, the wildcatters were la- beled as the bet-a-million-makea billion type. Their faith in the stateis trea- sures paid off. Texas is tops in the nationls production of petroleum, livestock, natural gas, magnesium, graphite, and sulphur. Its principal industries are oil-refining, food- processing, the manufacture of chemicals, and the transportation of equipment and machinery. Texas, which stretches 267,338 square miles, boasts a population of more than 13 million people, making it the third most populous Community Texas is a state lf' 'E it I i of mind.

Figures revealed in late 1980 showed that Houston was ranked the third largest city in the country, while El Paso was third on the list of fastest-growing cities in the United States. The reasons for El Paso's growth rate, according to Cham- ber of Commerce Spokesperson Glenda Miles, are varied and com- plex. The sunny climate is a large draw for those who wish to escape the cold weather often found in other parts of the country. 'El O92 ff N .! XA i W .

Because El Paso borders on Mexican soil, it has become a pop- ular tourist attraction. national focal point, the centuries- old garb of faded blue jeans, yoked shirts, scuffed cowboy Khile Texas has always been a if 'JT boots, and the crowning glory of a Stetson hat worn by prairie-riding cowboys became the national fash- ion craze. Psychologists accredited the desire to wear this type of clothing to wget back to basicsfl especially in the face of an ailing economy. The explosion of westernwear coincided with the release of the film 'Urban Cowboy', which cen- tered around Houston, and which glamorized the hard-working, honky-tonk dancing cowboy caught between the past and pre- sent. The soundtrack of the film, featuring over sixteen artists be- came a best-seller. Texas' own Willie Nelson headed the long list of country-western artists who found their albums selling at the top of the charts. Nelson, who starred with Jane Fonda and Rob- ert Redford in 'The Electric Horse- man', received star-billing in his next film, 'Honeysuckle Rose'. Shortly afterward, a line of Willie Nelson jeans were released. Loret- ta Lynn, long considered .the Queen of Country Music, was the basis for an autobiographical film, 'Coal Miner's Daughter'. Dolly Parton was cast in Nine to Five , and Barbara Mandrell was signed to a television variety show con- tract. By far, however, 'Dallas', a nighttime soap opera, became a blockbuster production. Audi- ences tuned in each Friday night to boo and hiss the acts of J.R. Ew- ing, oil tycoon the man that Americans loved to hate. Musically, Mickey Gilley, Way- lon Jennings, Johnnie Lee, The Oak Ridge Boys, and Crystal Gayle all became household words as their voices became familiar on the airwaves. Texans, whether they spoke with a drawl, wore blue jeans, or listened to Willie Nelson's latest, continued to influence the nation, both politically and socially. Tex- as, one of the few wide open spaces left in the nation, kept alive the roaming, romantic, and pio- neering spirit. Texas 233 Free enterprise, the American way Free enterprise, as a way of busi- ness in America, has been a boost to the consumer as well as small and big businesses. It is the form of trade where the economy can regulate it- self in a free competitive market through the relationship between supply and demand. This type of business is profitable to the business- man, the consumer, business in gen- eral, and the community. By its ability to regulate the econo- my, free enterprise helps the small business survive in the midst of larger markets. By doing this, free enter- prise lets the consumer choose where he will buy. Through this, stores have to compete for consum- ers by keeping prices lower. Another reason free enterprise works so well is the lack of government interven- tion and red tape. The community also benefits from the practice of free enterprise. This system keeps the money supply within the neighborhood to be used again and encourage local business. A . , , W , .

Qecsv 6' 9 0 Q so Indians inspired by cultures With the inspiration of different cultures, Indians International strived to make the year a special one. Throughout the year, Indians In- ternational sponsored car washes and candy sales. The money raised was to pay for the annual initiation banquet which was held at the end of the year. Highlighting the year was the Christmas dance held Dec. 5, in which Norma Rubalcava was crowned the 1980-81 Christmas Queen. She represented ROTC. First princess was Grace Cruz who represented Orchesis dance club and Second Princess was Elizabeth Sierra representing FI-IS. The court was determined by the amount of money raised by each girl.

Just as the old West dominated the full measure of a man, the cowboy of the day required the finest quality and endurance from a boot. So H. J. Justin set his standards highg his dedication to craftsmanship produced a boot - of extraordinary quality and unequaled durability. And his workmanship established a standard that lived beyond his lifetime. To-day this dedication to quality is still the tradition at Justin. The workmanship that goes into a Justin Boot is measured by a high standard of excellance and value, And, with aqstyle variety that expands each yearg Justin maintains a balance of dress, cowboy, and work boots to give the dealer a wide selection for a profitable boot department. Through nearly a century of growth and expansion, Justin Boot Company has carefully preserved the fine workmanship that assures dependable quality and has made the Justin Boot The Standard of the West Since 1879. ,,, - . ig -v S YVWkkfV i l : a' af' Q .

In the growing farming community of Ys- leta, a brand new school was accre- dited in which a handful of students walked through gleaming new corri- dors. Today, we have reversed back to the days when cowboys were called heroes of the West and Uflappersn are rarely remembered. Texas is en- joying its chance in the lime light as the rest of the country joined in the Texas tradition of cowboy boots and stetsons. The farming community is still growing right along with the school which now boasts a popula- tion of approximately 3,000.

Closing 282 changes, and Ysleta High School has been no exception. Time has aged the educational landmark and brought about changes in the people as well. Practices be- gun decades ago have become tradi- tions which have been meticulously followed through the years. Honored traditions such as the horserider, the legend of Kawliga, the Pride of the Lower Valley, and the saying, Once an Indian, always an Indian! are still around today. Yet even these tradi- tions have seen changes in recent years. The domination of males as horse riders was lost when, in 1979, Mary Lou Carrillo became the first female horserider. She was followed by Diane Medlin who was the 1980-81 horserider. The school advanced and tradi- tions differred slightly as the institu- tion forged on into a new decadeg but the district itself underwent many changes in the year since Dr. J.M. Hanks, who was Ysleta's first princi- pal, retired as Superintendent of the Ysleta Independent School District and Dr. Charles Benson advanced to this distinguished position. Policy changes made discipline en- forcement stricter. The ten day ab- sence was a rigidly followed rule which rendered students who missed more than ten days of classes abso- lutely no credit. In order to receive one half of a credit, students were required to take a course for 18 weeks due to the change to the se- .w ' Wwr 'w The legend of mighty Kawliga still lives as Alphonso Carr, varsity football player, shows by placing his hand on Kawliga's right shoulder for strength at a Friday night game. mester system. ln spite of these changes the daily routine of a school life continued. On the fields of sports, the Indians won and lost. The teams which had no chance of ever being hard-to-beat competitors, the scrawny little teams of Ysleta High School who were al- ways too short or too few, showed neighboring high schools the true strength of the Indians. The crowning glory came when the girl's varsity basketball team conquered the 2-5A district for the 1980-81 district title. The mighty Indians did not always come in first place in sports, but alto- gether, the Indians were still staunch competitors and the Pride of the Lower Valley was, in the eyes of its patrons as well as to the opponents, confirmed as more than just a slogan. 1 1 gg..

Oorfilaf liffiife To be continued This antique looking building stands out from the crowd of starch looking modern schools. It has sur- vived 53 years of changes and en- compassed many people. Some Ysleta graduates have be- come outstanding members of the community such as El Paso county Judge Enrique Pena and State Sena- tor Tati Santiesteban. While others like Mrs. Dorothy Lantow, head of the English Department and Mr. Ra- mon Arellano, social studies instruc- tor, have returned to the Reservation as members of the faculty. Through the years the large num- bers of students who have entered Ysleta's portals have become a part of the Indian heritage by participat- ing in the minor trivia and major tri- umphs that made up daily life. The new decade made students more aware of the world outside their own which was contained within the limits of books, educators and peers. Suddenly, they were thrust into a nation wide crisis. Parents' monetary problems when having to cope with rising prices also affected students as they had to limit the amount of money they spend on their own necessities. Warmer days gave evidence that still another school year would soon come to a close. The class of 1981, Ysleta's first three year graduates looked back at their individual exper- iences while at the Reservation. Then they looked ahead at a whole new spectrum of people and places that awaited them outside of school. Ysleta's 50th anniversary was a The Franklin Mountains show the immensity of their size and strength in comparison to a few hikers. Closing 284 look at the past at every thing that had made Ysleta great. This 53rd anniversary is a look into the future. Ysleta's so called 'middle-age crisis' was nothing but a calm before the storm. The past few years have seen Ys- leta's reputation somewhat tar- nished. Many people look at Ysleta as a school that is no longer as pro- minant as it once was. Yet, the Indi- ans did not stand still for such hear- say. 1981 has seen Ysleta coming back stronger than ever, both athleti- cally and academically. As long as there are Indians willing lto carry on the Indian heritage, Ys- leta will continue to hold its own among its peers.

Chente Ordonez- patient and talent- ed, his best effort was the best. Freddy Rubalcava- perhaps the most enthusiastic of all, he liked to stay all night. Joe Dominguez- his taunts that year- books from neighboring schools were better, made him a beloved figure. Seriously, he was a lot of fun, and a lot of help. Cindy Duran- more valuable than a bottle of No-Doz, Cindy was the third editor. Cecy Hernandez- she proved that deadline dressing did not have to be sloppy, as she unfalteringly looked her best.

Lourdes Rodriguez One of my most vivid childhood memories is of leafing through the 1970 Otyokwa and saying to myself, When I get to Ysleta, I want to be yearbook editor. Since that time, the Otyokwa has been my ideal and my goal. More than a decade later, my goal has been met. I finish with a melancholic feeling, not only for headlines thought of too- late, or unused ideas, but because it means the end of a dream. The 1981 Otyokwa is now a reality, and it is with pride and love that it is present- ed to Ysleta. Heartfelt thank you's are in or- der for the following people, without whose aid the publication of this yearbook would have been doubly difficult. To my Mom and Dad and entire Villalva family - I love you. I can never attempt to repay the en- couragement and support. To Mrs. Josie Kinard, who at times appeared to be superhuman, thank you. You have been an educator in every fine sense of the word and a dear friend. To staff members, I hope this year has been as much a learning exper- ience for you as it was for me. Frank, Cindy, Chente, Joe, and Mrs. Alicia Perez - you have all provided help, advice, and laughter when it was sorely needed. To my co-editor, Lourdes, it's been an unforgettable year. Without your compromise and cooperation, we still might have been deciding on the cover! Finally, to Mrs. Rebecca Rankin and Mr. Robert Dahl, I find it difficult to adequately ay thank you to the two people Evho have indelibly inspired me. Lydia Villalva Co-editor 1980-81 P.S. Thank you, Lord. There's not one thing that can be pinpointed to be said to have been the best part of this past year. Even at times when my body ached for sleep and my head throbbed from all the noise it never felt as though what I and the other people in this room were doing was useless. The good times far out weighed the bad, but it was more than good times that kept me glued to the department. It was probably just plain crazy to stick with the illusion of completing the year- book when 50 pages had to be done two hours before deadline and Lydia and I were driving home at sunrise after a 27 hour session. Special thanks and love goes to my family for all their understanding and pa- tience during deadlines. The missmatched group called the staff became a second family and some of the closest friends I've ever had in high school. Mrs. Kinard was more of a friend than a teacher. Lyd- ia has been a great co-worker and I thank her for all her help. It's been great fun and all the hard work balanced it all out. Helping twenty people while trying to finish my own work was quite a feat. I don't know who said 'It's lonely at the top' but he certainly was never an editor for the Otyokwa. As I sat alone in the office, during our last deadline, it was hard to be- lieve that just a few months ago be- fore all the arguments and problems, we were so anxious to see this book finished. Now that it's all over, I don't know if I would want to do it all over again, we could do without the problems. I So, to every Indian, I give the 1981 Otyokwa to share and treasure as I did even before it was the 1981 Mrs. Josie Kinard Mrs. Alicia Perez I W3 fe Carmen Aguirre Wm Otyokwa. Lourdes Rodriguez Co-editor 1980-81 Lydia Villalva Armando Prado Freddy Rivera 33'-W Anna Pena The Last Word Colophon Ysleta's forty-fifth edition of the Otyokwa is a result of a twenty member staff who stived to complete a record of high school memories in a six month time span. Through all the headaches and stomachaches from nourishing junk food which sustained us long enough to work that one extra hour, we never lost sight of our ultimate goal, finishing the 1981 Otyokwa on time. Cover texture and colors, as well as design, were a collaboration of ideas between Adviser Josie Kinard and Co-editors Lourdes Rodriguez and Lydia Villalva. Artwork for endsheets was drawn by Lourdes Rodriguez with photograph sequence shot by Frank Ordonez and Vicente Ordonez. McBryde's Creative Photography took all class portrait shots and printed all color pictures. Type specifications consisted of 36 pt. Souvenir Style for standard head- lines with 18 and 24 pt. kickers also in Souvenir Style . Body and caption copy was made up of Souvenir Style in 12 and 10 pt. Kickers not in this type were hand set from Chartpak graphic lettering. Still Going Strong was the theme chosen to portray the mood of Ysleta High School which was significant of its steady and growing feeling of importance, both educationally and historically. It has been said of Ysleta that its pride and quality have diminished, we are saying, in effect, that we are actually moving ahead with great determination and pride into the future. .T f f U' um, 1 9l '2 fogngcg l E E XW5P4a0 f 9 1 Pnfss n muon i 1 3 f 72 K 'fi si 001si:c Q' Colophon 288 6 .2 1.af2ff2 4'
