Last season, volunteer soc-cer coach and Hollywood High alumnus Jose Lopez allegedly stole more than $1,000 from students under the pretense of buying uniforms for the girls and boys junior varsity soccer team. Lopez, who has since disap-peared, had been involved with the Hollywood soccer program for more than 10 years. “He’s al-ways been around when I have,” said Head Soccer Coach Jorge Maldonado. During the last season, the teams expressed that they wanted to purchase warm-up sweats and Lopez reassured them that he would take care of it before the team left for winter break. “He came to us and offered to help us out,” said Stephanie Mo-rales, JV Girls captain. According to the players, four of the girls each paid $60 and 16 others contributed $30 each. The boys contributed $495 to-tal. Lopez continued to change the expected date of arrival for the clothing every time he was

approached by members of the team. “He would keep having us up and down,” said Stephanie, a sophomore. The last time Lopez was seen by the team was during a game over the winter break. When the girls returned from break, the coach had disappeared with all of their money. “I was really mad, I couldn’t believe that he would really do this to us,” said Stephanie. According to the students, their parents came to the ad-ministration to complain about the theft, but Principal Jaime Morales and Marco Tolj, assis-tant principal in charge of ath-letics, said they were unaware of the situation. “I haven’t heard anything about this,” said Morales. The administration never re-imbursed the families, but Mal-donado eventually paid for the warm-up sweats out of his own pocket. In the current budget cri-sis, the school district cannot always afford to hire sports coaches. Because of this, many

The Small Learning Communi-ty reconfiguration committee has agreed on a proposition to resolve the issue with the affected SLCs. Mar. 1 was the deadline for a re-port update on what is to be the basic structure of the plan. The proposed idea is to make two new SLCs out of the three-that do not meet District Four’s student population requirement.

The original purpose of having SLCs is so that students can lean towards his/her career choice. SLCs were designed to educate and provide resources to students who were to be veered into one direction so they gain experience in that particular area and employ that knowledge in college. AVID, which is currently a part of MET, will join Teaching Ca-reer and Social Justice Academy. “TCA is going to stay. In fact,

it’s going to grow,” said Principal Jaime Morales. Teachers came up with a plan while keeping the needs of stu-dents in mind. Health, Nutrition Arts and Science will be com-bined with Media and Technol-ogy while Teaching Career Acad-emy, AVID, and Social Justice will be united. “As of now it is a skeleton idea,” said Tadeo Climaco. The SLC arrangement was decided due to the similarity in content and electives. This will help solve the issue with students’ choice of electives and class size. Several new opportunities will be presented to the students. “I think we are adjusting to new times,” said Morales. Several issues have to be re-solved in order for this plan to work. Additional meetings with the committee must be held to ad-dress every detail. Parent letters have not yet been sent out. Parent committees are the only ones that are aware of the SLC reconfigura-tion. Letters are to be sent once all the details have been addressed. The idea has to be finalized as soon as possible for it to be implemented in the upcoming school year.

coaches are volunteers. Accord-ing to Athletic Director Raul Grijalva, volunteer coaches are hired to supplement the paid ones. In LAUSD, all volunteer coaches must be fingerprinted and have an application on file, according to the California Interscholastic Federation guidelines. Lopez was never finger printed, ac-cording to Maldonado. “I told him to get his finger-prints done. He kept saying next week, next week, next week,” said Maldonado. “It was my fault too for not putting enough pressure on him, but it was someone I knew for 20 years.” As far as finding and appre-hending him, having the fin-gerprints “would have made it easier for the school to track [him],” said Maldonado, who went to Lopez’s house and his mother’s business in search of him, but he wasn’t found. No police reports have been filed because, according to Tolj, no student or parent ever came to report the incident. The cam-pus police were never notified, and as of now, no one is actively looking for Lopez.

“I think it is a continued at-tack on public education,” said Michael Ulmer, UTLA Chapter Chair. “Public education is the only opportunity young people have to better themselves and

when the government fires 5,000 teachers, they’re under-mining the future of hundreds of thousands of students.”

UTLA members and students ral-lied outside of Hollywood High School the morn-ing of Tuesday, March 15 in protest against the layoff warn-ing notices that 14 teachers and counselors at the school recieved. A particular source of controversy stemmed from the new superin-tendent’s $80,000 raise upon being hired. Protests will be held every Tuesday morning indefinitely.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORDear Editor, I would like to thank the Chronicle for allowing me the oppor-tunity to show my appreciation for all those who took part in the flash mob in the quad during lunch on Tuesday, Feb. 22. I have been trying to organize a flash mob for the past four years. Imagine my surprise when I was asked to be in the quad for lunch, one by one by twos, by threes students took the floor and started dancing by the time was over it was elbow room only. The time, effort and talent that went into this shows what Hollywood High School is all about. When I learned that “we did it for you,” I was walking on air. Though I had nothing to do with it, and wasn’t told why they asked me to be there, I was totally blown away by the spirit and enthusi-asm of all the students who participated. Again, thank you all, and I look forward to future flash mobs.- Sincerely, Mr. BurciagaDear Editor, The articles in the Crimson Chronicle are very interesting. The newspaper article that I enjoyed reading was the “Clown Make-Up Trend”. I liked it because it talked about the truth that is another thing that I would want to read about. Don’t do horoscopes be-cause some people take them seriously.- Sincerely, Jamie Bautista, 11th Grade

Dear Editor, The school newspaper has many entertaining features such as sports as a well as what is going on in school. Us students can be well informed of our environment. Due to this, the Crimson Chronicle is doing a great job. One thing I would like to see differ-ent though is the relevance of the pictures to the subject. Some of the articles do not reach this. It would also be great to have fewer words and more pictures. Aside from this, the newspaper is a suc-cess.-Sincerely, Elliott Ramirez, 11th Grade

Dear Editor, The school newspaper is much improved this year. The layout is more organized, the feature writing and editing is more profes-sional, and the photographs are more interesting. Congratulations to Ms. Cusolito, the journalism instructor, and Breigh Montgom-ery, the editor, as well as to the journalism staff. - Sincerely, Mr. Schwich

The Hat Debate Perhaps one of the most controversial policies of Hol-lywood High is the hat pol-icy in the new dress code.Many people,

including Safety Coordinator Joe Mendizza and School of Ad-vanced Studies Counselor Raul Grijalva, believe that wearing hats in schools does not directly interfere with the educational endeavors of the school’s stu-dent body. In an attempt to find out more about this policy and its begin-nings, I went to talk to the most well known enforcer of the

policy: Mendizza, the man in charge of safety of the student body. Mendizza can often be seen around the campus with a red Hollywood High bag full of students’ “illegal” belongings – most of which are hats. The dress code policy calls

for an “unapproved hats” to be sent to the SLC and picked up at the end of the day. Mendizza said that the main reason for the hat policy is that “hats can be gang associated.” During the two years I have been at Hollywood, I haven’t personally witnessed any

gang related issues. However, Mendizza revealed that our last gang incident occurred just around two weeks ago, al-though the hat policy had no effect in identifying these gang members. It is understandable that the administration of Hollywood is trying their best to create a per-fect learning environment, and if not wearing hats helps create a better learning environment for the students, then so be it. Although many do not realize that hats may merely be a way of self-expression or to show a passion towards a major league or collegiate sport. Perhaps implementing some exceptions to the policy would be a healthy addition to the school’s rulebook.

Not only are teenagers get-ting a hold of alcohol and drugs outside of school, they are now able

to attain them at school and consume them at high rates. Acknowledging this will make staff and parents more aware of what the students are actu-ally doing at school. These “new ways” of getting high or drunk are cheap and may have serious consequences that teenagers are unable to even dream of.

From alcohol hidden in energy drink cans to the infamous pills otherwise known as ecstasy, the amount of drugs that are being offered to students is shocking. The fact that these items are so easily camouflaged makes it much easier to take them dur-ing class. Students bring vodka in their water bottles and walk

around with them without being noticed. They are con-suming these products with-out knowing what chemicals they are deal-ing with. Faculty mem-bers have been warned about these illegal ac-tions. However, it is impossible to check each student every day. This intake of drugs is seen more in young-er teens. These s u b s t a n c e s impact stu-dents’ behavior throughout the day. The infamous Four Loko has been known for causing many teenage deaths. Just last sum-mer, during the EDC rave, a 15-year-old girl died of an overdose on ecstasy. Administra-tors need to take a closer look at Hol-lywood’s drug problem.

After the resignaton of Mubarak, Egypt’s fate has been handed to those who are willig to step up

and defend the country. But how will the people know who to trust? And how will inter-national powers with business interests in Egypt handle this uprising? Hosni Mubarak has been in power since the death of Egypt’s last “real” president, Anwar el-Sadat. Mubarak was Sadat’s vice president and fol-lowing the former president’s death, declared what is called an Emergency Law on Oct. 16, 1981, claiming it necessary for the nation’s fight against ter-rorism and domestic security. The Emergency law allowed the police to arbitrarily arrest citizens, confine prisoners in-definitely, and curb freedom of expression and assembly. Thirty years later, citizens of Egypt became hyperaware of Mubarak’s totalitarian regime and the forcibly executed unjust regulations under the Emer-gency law that Mubarak had cleverly maintained for so long. They demanded his resignation on the basis of suspected cor-

ruption. The citizens also feared that Mubarak would pass on the rule to his son, Gamal Mubarak, after he retired. Protests began and then inten-sified when Mubarak started taking extraneous measures and arresting individuals with-out an indictment. Through the use of social networking site Facebook, the youth of Egypt started publi-cizing the protests, attracting a great deal of international me-dia attention. The country’s largest anti-government force, the Muslim Brotherhood, government critic and Nobel Laureate Mohamed El Baradei, as well as other non-religious and international par-ties, cast their support toward the protesters. On Feb.1, thousands of Egyp-tians, overflowing with zeal and confidence, gathered at Tahrir Square to ensure their voices were heard by the government. Governments all over the world, including the United States, recognized the Egyp-tians’ right to a democratic na-tion and the inequitable ways Mubarak was regulating and enforcing the politics of the country. On Feb. 10, protesters and audiences all over the world watched with agony as Mubarak’s much-anticipated speech of resignation instead

qualified his determination to finish his term as president. The public was enraged and finally on Feb. 11, Mubarak, under much international and domestic pressure, acquiesced to renounce his presidency and left to his resort home in Sharm el-Sheik, Cairo. The country was then seized by the powerful and very secre-tive Egyptian military. The mili-tary has promised to expedite the process of a fair election and in the mean time get the country’s political and econom-ic situation in control. The political upheaval hurt

Egypt’s economy by turn-ing away investors. The labor strikes and protests affected national services, like the post offices, and many factories. The political instability proved Egypt insecure for business transactions. Entrepreneurs were scared off by the protests and concerned about financial security and physical safety. Recently, after the former ruler’s resignation, the youth of Egypt continued their protests demanding increased employ-

ment opportunities. But, until the country has elected a new president and government body, its future hangs suspended in midair. The majority of Egyptians are trying to steer clear of further totalitarian rulers and regimes, but for a country that has known nothing but oppression for the last 30 years, achieving democracy will not be easy. The fate of Egypt can easily turn south, but it may also be sal-vaged by the sweeping action of the right leader. The country is sure to come about many aspiring and prom-ising political leaders and in-ternational advice. The people of Egypt must face the difficult task of distinguishing who has the country’s best interest at heart to avoid further corrup-tion and duplicity. In the case of foreign rela-tions, Egyptians must see past each country’s personal agen-da, especially when it comes to forming allies. Despite having known of Mubarak’s regiment, consist-ing of a feeble Parliament, and the unjust treatment of the Egyptian citizenry, the U.S. did not hesitate to form an alliance with Egypt. Due to Egypt’s position as a powerful political and geo-graphical force in the Arab world, President Obama and his predecessors maintained a

steady alliance, providing for-eign aid that is claimed to have gone straight into Mubarak’s own pocket. Obama waited until the last moment to withdraw American support for its long time ally. Even when it had become clear to the rest of the world, the U.S. president and secretary of state issued vague addresses that never quite made clear their stance on the issue. This proves that no matter how much the U.S. claims to uphold democratic values, the demand for oil will always su-percede such ideals. The world watches with con-cern as Egypt makes these tre-mendously important decisions about its future government in a pace so hurried it almost seems like a student cramming right before the test. Those who fear for the coun-try’s future may be concerned at the hasty pace, like Secre-tary of State Hillary Clinton who warned Egyptians against transitioning too fast into what they may perceive as Democ-racy. Although the military has appeased the insurgents for now, if the swiftness and confi-dence with which it assured the country of a better future ever falters, Egypt is sure to blaze up again in a flare of riots, and it is uncertain what historical change its citizens will bring about then.

This year’s Hollywood Idol will include a live singing competition in addition to a lip sync contest. Hollywood Idol is “an opportunity to honor the performer who best repre-sents original talent on our campus, one who has the motivation and the desire to inspire others to use whatever talents they possess to be their very best,” said James Carmicle, English teacher. Hollywood Idol de-buted last year on Feb 5. This year it will be held on April 15, the Friday before spring break. In 2010, Hollywood Idol was strictly confined to lip syncing. This made some students criticize the event and requested more talent for next year’s performance. This year, Carmicle is going to the next level by upgrading to live singing, dancing, and bands, but still including lip-syncing. Students can now show the true talents that they possess. This will bring a great opportunity for indi-viduals willing to accept the challenge of appearing in Hollywood Idol 2011. Art teacher Jessica Potrovitza said,

“Last year was great, but this year will be even better.” According to Carmicle, the idea of having Hollywood Idol was inspired from just simply hearing Internet radio. This sparked an idea of giving students a chance to be able to lip sync the popular songs of the day. He was not alone in the path to make Hollywood Idol a success; Potrovitza

and leadership also provided their help. Carmicle was looking for students who were dedicated to perform. He did not want any students that would change their mind at the last second. Individuals that were dedicated in performing

in Hollywood Idol 2011 were required to submit an application by Feb. 11. Applicants had their first meeting on Feb. 16 where they described their performance; including wardrobe choices, the music they were to per-form to, and dance or choreography routines. The individuals were split into two groups. As of Monday, lineup has not been finalized. The chosen acts will compete for cash prizes.

Every year, the top junior girls and boys from every high school in the state of California are chosen to attend a summer program hosted by the Ameri-can Legion Auxiliary. This year, the Boys State seminar will be held at Cali-fornia State University, Sacra-mento. The girls will be staying at McKenna/Claremont College in Claremont. This year, the candidates chosen to attend Boys State are: Hovannes Kegeyan (MET), Josh Arguelles, Joshua Cruz, and alternate Shanka Udugampola(all SAS). The Girls State candidates are SAS students Karla Samayoa, Diandra Beckles, Fatim Tall, and alternate Veronica Davis. Due to different funding three boys have been chosen to at-tend Boys State and only Karla has been chosen to attend Girls State. The purpose of this pro-gram is to learn how a govern-ment works, to help students

develop leadership skills, and show appreciation of our rights as citizens. Students attending this sum-mer program will be running

for office, learning public speaking, creating and enforc-ing laws, and participating in the making a mock govern-ment. “I expect a lot of debating and meeting new people,” said Hovannes. “The program gives the cho-

sen students the opportunity to meet other students and bond with different people in an intellectual way,” said SAS Counselor Raul Grijalva.

All candidates are chosen based on three things: first, they are selected by their grade point average and their extracurricular activities, then they are interviewed by Major Gibson from the American Legion. Their hard work and dedica-

tion is paid off with a once in a lifetime opportunity of making their own mock government. Students who attend Boys and Girls State are often of-

fered scholarships by the sponsors of the event. Attend-ing Girls and Boys State also

implies outstanding leadership skills and commitment, quali-ties that attract colleges. Another benefit of attending this summer program is the

opportunity to be selected for Boys and Girls Nation, a pro-gram that gives students the opportunity to go to Wash-ington D.C. for a chance to visit the White House and meet the president. “I expect it to be a very inter-esting experi-ence, seeing as how 500 other

girls from all over California are going to be in one place,’ said Karla. “I guess they

saw something they liked in me. It must have been my charm or good looks,” joked Joshua.

NEWSTuomala’s Decathlon Team Breaks RecordsAwards show at Hollywood’s auditorium fills with screaming nerds

AFSAnA AFZALCOPY ediTOR

Students from 82 LAUSD schools received awards for their outstanding achieve-ment in Academic Decathlon on Feb. 11, at Hollywood High’s auditorium. The 30th Annual Award Ceremony was hosted by Hollywood, whose decath-lon team, coached by Lee Tuomala, George Hayes, and retired teacher Robert Mel-ling, brought home a total of three gold and two bronze medals. Varsity competitor Samuel Fuentes broke records by getting a bronze plaque, Hollywood’s first ever notable achievement in the SuperQuiz section of the competition. Samuel was also the high-est scoring student from Hollywood, scoring 5606.7 overall. Granada Hills Charter School was the champion

of this year’s competition, hosted by Roybal Learning Center. An overall score of 49104.9, Granada Hills was, followed by Marshall High, trailing by approximately 300 points. Hollywood came in at 34. “Almost all the seats in the auditorium were filled,” said coach George Hayes reflect-ing on the award show. “It was interesting to see Marshall High be beaten by Granada Hills.” Despite the double digit ranking, all of Hollywood’s nine competitors and their coaches are proud of their achievement. “The experience was very valuable. I learned a lot, including studing and speaking skills. The cer-emony was very exciting. Everyone was pumped up,” said Maria Guzman, winner of gold in speech and bronze in interview. Varsity team member Erika Orellana said the

coursework seemed very challenging at first be-cause “there were so many subjects to review in such a short time.” Both Maria and Erika at-tributed their performance to all the coaches, particu-larly full-time coach Tuoma-la, for their hard work. “We’re making progress; we hope to be better next year.” said Tuomala. “It is the most rewarding experience because it’s a group of eager learners who not only get the informa-tion but absorb it so they can perform well in the competition,” said Hayes. “It is really like training for an athletic competition.” Second-year competi-tor Diandra Beckles, gold in speech and bronze in interview, along with Hayes, emphasized the importance of a more tangible and rel-evant subject matter for the competition. Last year’s theme centered

on French Romanticism threw students off, and whereas this year, students were able to better under-stand all subject matter con-structed around this year’s topic the Great Depression, according to Hayes. For Jaren Valdez, the com-petition was nerve-racking, while for Maria it was a relief to see judges who weren’t as “cut-throat” as expected. “For the SuperQuiz, I blanked out when they asked me questions,” said Jaren. “We hope many people join next year,” said Diandra, “The competition is hard but very enjoyable.” The Academic decathlon team starts recruiting next year. Any student interested in joining the class is urged to speak to Lee Tuomala in Room 406.

After weeks of selling chocolate, the Hollywood JROTC Battalion attended the 27th Annual All-City JROTC Ball presented by LAUSD on Saturday, Mar. 5, at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel Ball-room. Cadets sold 150 bars of World Famous Choco-lates provided by the JROTC program. However, their hard work paid off and they were able to be part of an incredible evening. Cadets from 30 schools representing the four branches of JROTC: Army JROTC, Marine JROTC, Navy JROTC and Air Force JROTC began to arrive around 4 p.m. with their class A coats, while the ladies wore elegant dresses. Before the ball began, cadets presented a memorabilia poster composed of pictures of each school, in order to portray their school spirit. The military ball served as a break from daily stress, a way to relax, and enjoy the company of those you work with and their families. Once the doors closed, the ball began with a Color Guard presentation and the National An-them Awards provided to top cadets. Later that evening, the Saber Honor Guard from Franklin HS and Washington HS presented the royal courts, which consisted of a queen and king from each school. Christopher Del Cid, military ball King and Zier-ess Francisco, military ball Queen were called up to the dance floor and had the honor of com-mencing the dance. “It was great! I totally didn’t expect it, and it was fun to represent Hollywood the JROTC style,” said Christopher. Cadets enjoyed an evening of fine dining and danced the night away as they created conga lines and dance battles until midnight.

Heather Brown, SAS Counselor, is out to change the way students com-municate, one advisory at a time. In the past few months, Brown has gone to three advisories in hope of changing the old ways of communication and state of mind of stu-dent. She also intends to teach students how to release stress and express themselves. Council should be used to show stu-dents how to focus on what is right in front of them; it should be used as a guide into retrieving the carefree student that feels free and balanced, Brown said. “I think it’s a great tool to bring into advisories because it allows stu-dents to interact in a different way,” said Emily Taron, SAS Lead Teacher, who has Council every Friday. Council gives students a chance to exercise different parts of the mind. For example, Council allows students to retrieve their carefree self in kindergarten, when they did things because they felt like it not because were instructed to. Council is to remind students that they should be

fun-loving and enjoy the gift of life instead of pressuring and stressing themselves. The purpose of Council is to listen and speak from the heart, talk when-ever it feels right about anything possible. A benefit of Council is that unlike in classrooms, speaking is not

mandatory, which helps students feel more comfortable. The word “pass” is used to imply that the student has nothing to say. It is recommended that the student take a couple of sec-onds holding the “talking piece” and think if there is anything he wants to say; if not, they are allowed to “pass”. “Speak from the heart and listen from the heart and that’s what it is all about.” said Brown.

Council is making its way around the school rather quickly. The advisories of Taron, Cusolito, and Tobenkin are currently working with Brown Wednesday through Friday every week in hopes of getting the main idea across to students. Even some teachers who do not have

Brown’s guidance are enjoying what Coun-cil has to offer. Jaeson Burd gath-ers his students around a circle and prompts them ques-tions that students are encouraged to answer thoughtfully. These questions are designed to help students to get to know each other in a way that they do not normally do inside a classroom.

Other advisories are trying new techniques that will help their students

relax. Juan Burciaga, SAS history teacher, is using breathing exercises before every test that consist of tak-ing slow and conscious breaths that promote relaxation. Council is a retro way of communi-cation which so far has been opening the eyes, ears, hearts, and minds of many students at Hollywood High.

FEATURESThe 83rd Annual Academy Awards“It’s the Young and Hip Oscars.” Co-host Anne Hathaway’s remarks sums up what the Academy had aimed for this year’s awards show to be. Hathaway having to make the statement also reflects the show’s apparent lack of success in attaining the interests of the younger generation while sticking to the traditions of the past. From the hosts to the winners to the presenters, the show is sure to be remembered for years to come as the most awkward Oscars ever. Here is why:

The Academy Awards this year were hosted as traditionally as possible while trying to appeal to a “younger demographic.” One highlight was the appearance of Kirk Douglas as the presenter for Best Actress in a Supporting Role. Though hit hard by a stroke that impaired his speech, the legendary actor and producer brought some of the best charm and humor by complementing Hathaway and stalling the announcement of Melissa Leo as Best Supporting Actress by repeating “You know…”

in the most nonchalant and clueless manner.

The misinterpretation of Helen Mirren’s French introduction for the category of Best Foreign Film by Russell Brand was humorous and in keeping with his personality. Robert Downy Jr. and Jude Law maintained their usual romantic and playful banter and tied it to the presentation of their category effortlessly. The song numbers cut from popular movies might have been another way to keep the younger audience tuned in, but that fortunately was kept short and managed to be entertaining. Ending the show with the children’s choir from Staten Island, NY, veered away from tradition, but their inspirational singing was probably a better choice than having the hosts end the show.

Cutting through the seemingly impermeable layer of discomfort, this year’s winners brought the charm and wit that the hosts noticeably lacked. The most alarming moment might have been Melissa Leo dropping the F-bomb, but that is perhaps much less of a big deal than the media made it out to be. Aaron Sorkin, receiving for Best Adapted Screenplay for The Social Network, concluded his speech with, “Roxy Sorkin, your father just won the Academy Award. I’m going to have to insist on some respect from your guinea pig.” Tom Hooper’s fond reference to his mother’s play-reading and his subsequent undertaking of The King’s Speech provided some interesting back-story of the Oscar-winning Best Picture. Natalie Portman’s speech for Best Lead Actress was kept short but still poignant as the pregnant star started tearing up while thanking her husband for helping choreograph Black Swan and for giving her the most important role of the life as a mother. Live Action Short Film winner Luke Matheny for his film God of Love joyously took the stage and exclaimed he should have gotten a hair cut. One look at his appearance would have anyone laugh out loud at his self-conscious comment. His earnest thank you to his girlfriend was also the sweetest moment of the entire evening. Documentary Feature winners Charles Ferguson and Audrey Marrs for Inside Job brought us back to reality with their win. Ferguson’s speech earned a huge applause for drawing attention to the men behind the massive fraud that almost collapsed the U.S. economy, and the government’s sluggish response in convicting them.

Colin Firth accepted his award with an elaborate apology for the “stirrings” he experienced which threatened to form themselves into dance moves. “It would be extremely problematic if they make it to my legs before I get off stage,” said Firth. Best Motion Picture winners for The King’s Speech Ian Canning, Emile Sherman and Gareth Unwin accepted the honor and concluded the awards by justly remarking, “What an incredible year for film!”

The selection of this year’s duo of the charming Anne Hathaway (Love and Other Drugs) and James Franco, distinguished for his performance in 127 Hours, was an evident ploy of the producers to attract young viewers to what has traditionally been a show for the old people. Unlike the Grammys, the Oscars don’t usually have all the flashy controversial celebrities and tend to give out awards that young people have rarely heard of or care about (Sound Mixing or Live Action Short Film, for example). Sure, the Academy and the producers were desperate for attention from the hip crowd, but that didn’t mean stooping to the level of high-profile celebrities like Justin Bieber, who would no doubt climb on the Oscar stage just to flaunt his new hairdo. Hathaway and Franco, despite the obvious strategy, would have been successful if their on stage performance had been up to par with any of the previous hosts’. Hathaway, looking as lovely as ever and going through a minimum of four dress changes to keep up with tradition, was always a tad too excited. At times, it almost seemed as though she was trying to make up for lost enthusiasm on Franco’s part, who kept staring down at the floor, perhaps at his own handsome reflection, during much of Hathaway’s animated monologues. The hosts’ lack of witty remarks and on stage chemistry left a void that was never quite filled. It’s like having the filling sucked out of a jelly donut. All you’re left with is the dry, sugar-coated bread that gets stuck in your throat every time you try to swallow.

James Franco did, however, make a memorable appearance on stage, the image of which will forever haunt anyone who has ever heard of Marilyn Monroe. His sloppy depiction of the starlet and the Charlie Sheen joke he made while in that costume, sent shivers down the viewer’s spine. The bit at the beginning with Hathaway and Franco sewn almost seamlessly into scenes from the movies nominated for Best Picture was one of the only two entertaining moments when it came to the hosts. The other was Hathaway’s mother’s playful scolding about her stooping posture and Franco’s grandmother’s excited mention of having met “Marky Mark,” referring to Mark Wahlberg from The Fighter.

SPORTSDrill Team Strives for Success

The Hollywood High School drill team is one of the hard-est working athletic teams in the school. They won their first competition of the year on March 5 at Arleta High School. These girls have worked all year long, practic-ing Monday through Satur-day and even during lunch-time. For fundraising, they have come up with unique and in-teresting ways. By having a person scratch a scratcher, the player is obligated to donate the amount that ap-pears.

Volleyball Starts Out Fierce

Freddie Thompson’s dance shows. After winning first place on their March 5 competition, the team feels more confi-dent. They plan to compete in several other competitions throughout the semester, in-cluding going to Sea World and a Spring Break Camp. The team’s first crucial competition was on March and it was the icebreaker for the new members who have not been in competition be-fore. Freshman Sarai Oviedo said, “When I first saw the team, I was like “Wow!” I was intimidated. The girls looked so great and I thought I was never going to get to their level.” The team has all of its re-

cent members working ex-tremely hard and getting ready for competition. Ac-cording to Team Captain Lil-

ian Ortega, the hardest part of the competition “is getting

the new members used to the competitive environment.” The team has had their most recent members work a lot

in or-der to h a v e a l l t h e t e a m mem-b e r s at the s a m e level. “The d r i l l t e a m is like a fam-ily, it

is like we are all sisters. Many of our trophies are put away

in the leadership room. We have so many trophies that some are even stuffed in the girls locker room,” said Lil-ian. Their sponsor Ms. Thomp-son and their coach have been very supportive and have taken the team to a new level. “The team has been busy throughout the year. They haven’t just been doing pep rallies. “We use as many school events given to us for prac-tice to get us ready for com-petition,” said Lilian. Unlike several of the ath-letic teams in the school the drill team has not made any changes in their coaching staff.

Teams remain undefeated so far this seasonto make it to second round playoffs with the team while a new form of coaching is be-ing implemented. “The training is tough but it’s a motivation to keep working hard and improve,” said Eduardo. Like any other sport, vol-leyball requires hard work and dedication. Sixth period consists of conditioning that increases by five reps each week. After school, the teams begin the “skills and drills” training administered by Payne, fellow Coach Willrock

Herrera and Assistant Ivan Herrera. Both Willrock and Herrera have experience playing for the Sheiks. “They have a good base and I’m just building on what [Alas] already did,” said Payne. Expectations are high this season, as some players hope to go for an undefeated sea-son this time around. “The morale has increased because of the new coach’s dedication and focus on us. It’s a foreshadowing of what’s to come,” said Jose

Rempola (10th grade, setter). With basketball and football players joining this season, volleyball is sure to gain a new crowd as friends come out to support the players. Many may see volleyball as a petty sport, but in reality it requires a lot of strategic planning and knowledge on the sport in order to be able to play it well, as evident by the players’ rigorous training. Hollywood didn’t disap-point at their first game, winning against Santee on March 7 with a score of 3-2

and winning again against Jefferson on March 10 with a score of 3-0. “If we improved this much in just two days, imagine how much we can improve during the rest of the season,” said Rempola. They hit a bump on their victorious road in their most recent meet against Miguel Contreras on March 14 with a loss of 3-2. With more improvements on the way, everyone will be looking forward to this season.

The track and field team has two new coaches: Jim McElroy and Adolfo Carcano. New Head Coach Jim McEl-roy formerly coached at George Washington Preparatory High School and at Cross Roads High School. He competed at the State level in 1994 in the 200 meters event. He has not coached in two years because of his son, but he saw an opening at Hollywood High and decided to coach again. Adolfo Carcano is an alumnus from Hollywood High and the Distance coach for track & field. He had been voluntarily help-ing out cross country and track and field for the past year but this year, he became an official coach. He ran for the Hollywood

and ended even stronger. I wouldn’t have changed anything because maybe we wouldn’t have gotten that far,” said Mari. As for the boys varsity team, they made it to the first round playoffs against Taft High School, but lost with a score of 109-29. Prior to this match-up, the boys varsity team went

nearly undefeated. The boys varsity soc-cer team also made it to playoffs against Bell High School, but lost 2-0. Edgar Barrientos (10th grade, Var-sity) felt the team deserved to go further in the playoffs since they all put in a lot of work. “Every game, we played with everything,” said

Franklin Ayala (10th grade, Varsity). The boys varsity team won 10 games out of 17. Part of what contributed to their success besides a new coach was the help of older players. They helped the younger players become more skilled with the ball and provided constructive criticism.

High 2005-2008 track and field team. There is a lot of potential this year in the track and field team, which have about 60 athletes. Something quite different this year is the distance team of track and field that has out-numbered the rest by having more than half the team doing distance. According to Coach Carcano, last year he had students that would bring themselves down by saying it’s not possible or we can’t make it, but this year he sees a more positive attitude coming from the team due to runners feeling more prepared because of their experience from last season. “A person has to learn to be-lieve in himself, because down the road of your journey is

something beautiful called self-discovery,” said Carcano.

Their first track meet was a home meet against Lincoln High on March 11 where former long-time track and field head

coach David Loera moved to. Unfortunately, the meet was

canceled due to the school’s lack of supplies for the athletes. Another factor was that the track was not set up yet. The

chalk that was aligned in lanes for the runners was completely stepped on. “I feel a little disappointed, but when I rethink the situation, it’s good on our behalf because we are better prepared and aware of how an actual track meet oc-curs,” said Senior Karl Resur-reccion, varsity sprinter. The meet will not be made up since it was a practice meet and Lincoln High is not in Hol-lywood’s league.

Their upcoming competi-tors are Miguel Contreras on March 18, Bernstein on

March 25, and Los Angeles High on March 30. In April they will be facing Belmont, Santee, and, for the first time, Jefferson High School.

elusive fountain. Forced onto the ship by new character Angelica (Penelope Cruz), Spar-row goes on an adven-ture he never imagined. In the film, Sparrow is under the impression that Angelica loves him and chooses to help her on the quest. But he isn’t sure if its love that’s flowing in the air or if she’s just using him for his assistance. He will be “used” by both Angelica and pirate leg-end Blackbeard in the search for the Fountain of Youth. Transformers: Dark of the MoonOn July 1, Optimus Prime, Bumble Bee, and the rest of the team will return for their 3rd Transformers film. The Autobots learn of a Cy-bertronian spacecraft hidden on the moon and must race against the Decepticons to reach it and learn its se-crets. Whoever reaches

it first will have an advantage over the other and maybe end the battle between them. New planets will be introduced and new Autobots and Decepticons will appear in the film. Shia LaBeouf remains the protagonist, but Megan Fox will not be returning. Trailers show flashier spe-cial effects, so it will likely be another summer blockbuster.

RioComing to theaters on April 15, this animated film is about a unique blue bird named Blu that is coveted by everyone. A simple, qui-et man owns this bird and trains it to act not like a bird but like a human. Rob-bers try to steal the bird and manage to do so, but the bird escapes along with another bird. The problem is that he doesn’t know how to fly. Other tropical birds have to teach Blu how to fly, eat, and act like a normal bird. The birds travel from Minnesota to Rio de Janei-ro, Brazil. The other female bird that travels with Blu lives in Rio de Janeiro and takes Blu with her, where they encounter other spe-cies of animals and hu-mans. Children will love the adventures of this unique bird who learns what it’s like to live in a completely different world.

A teacher’s pet is a person who is favored by a teacher and is pardoned if he or she makes a simple mistake, like failing a midterm. However, as students mature, they neglect their edu-cational responsibilities, thus losing their chance to be the number one student. In order to keep one’s place at the top, the student must learn to bribe the teacher (i.e. the victim). The student must comply with the teacher’s every need without appearing obsessive and psy-chotic.

Beginner’s level If you have a cell phone, keep your teacher’s cell phone number on speed dial. It will

be necessary so you can have easy access to that “A.” Call your teacher every morning to ask if he/she wants breakfast or cof-fee since teachers are busy peo-ple and cannot feed themselves. A hardy breakfast is better than apples, and besides, only kin-dergarteners do that. Call your teacher during dinner and offer to invite him/her to your house because most likely, the teacher is grading papers and is too busy to make dinner.

Intermediate level During class, be the center of the teacher’s attention at all times. If someone asks a question, start sobbing. When asked what’s wrong, answer that it really pains you to see the teacher bombarded with questions from unapprecia-tive, dim-witted students that

never understand the lessons. Then run out of the classroom, wait a few seconds to listen for the teacher’s footsteps. If your teacher checked to see if you’re okay, give yourself a pat on the back because you have won your teacher’s undivided atten-tion. If your teacher did not run after you, then you will have to move on to the expert level be-fore finishing this one. When the teacher asks a ques-tion and everybody is sinking into their seats, avoiding eye contact, shoot your hand up as high as possible. You might not know the answer but do not say “I don’t know;” provide any an-swer that sounds satisfactory. It might be wrong, but say, “I tried, unlike anyone else,” and flash a winning smile. A great way to receive that

easy “A” is to leave an hour early from school. Go to your teach-er’s house, and if you don’t have a key, climb through an open window. If the windows are closed, get a brick and smash a window, but be wary of any neighbors or passer-bys. If they question you, say that you live there and the keys are in the house. Once you’re in the house, the first thing to do is clean it so clean that you can practically eat off the floor. Then, cook a mouth-watering meal of ra-men and raw cookie dough. It shouldn’t take that long to pre-pare the meal, much like how it won’t take long for your teacher to fall into your clutches. Before leaving, write a quick note asking to pass you for the mid-term so you won’t have to study as hard as the other stu-

dents. You will surely receive an “A” for all the effort put into not doing your work.

Expert level Every morning, shower your teacher with opulent presents. You can cut a bouquet of flow-ers from your neighbor’s fresh-ly grown garden to give to your teacher. If the teacher is a female, buy her a Swarovski crystal neck-lace or a Chanel dress. If the teacher is male, buy him a Marc Jacobs suit or the Android cell phone. Now, how you come into possession of these lavishing presents is up to you. Every-one knows that the way into an underpaid teacher’s heart is through expensive gifts. Why give an apple when they could have Apple’s latest product?

Every year, the Performing Arts Magnet dancers prepare themselves to give a good show. Dancers spend weeks at a time memorizing every dance routine and every beat in a song to make sure they make no mis-takes. They give up their time to rehearse when they could be hanging out with friends. Dancers cannot do the show, however, without dedicat-ed Dance teachers Freddie Thompson, Lisa Goldschein, and Kenneth Long. The danc-ers have grown to admire how committed these teachers are

when it comes to teaching stu-dents how to move. “Mr. Long pushes you un-til you get it right. It feels bad when he tells you the harsh truth, but it helps you become stronger,” said veteran dancer Kathian Garcia, a PAM senior. The exhilation of performing on stage, as they present their hard work and passion for the world to see, is everpresent on the dancers’ faces. They create stories with their bodies, form-ing images in their audiences’ minds. Lighting and back-grounds enhance the dancers’ movements by assisting in cre-ating imagery. Dance is a language with which

dancers can express their inner feelings and convey words that cannot be spoken. Many have grown fond of this art form and have participated in many dance functions and programs, such as the winter dance recital Don’t Stop The Beat. “When I dance, I incorpo-rate my love of acting and mix it with dancing in order to ex-press myself. It keeps me calm,” said Ellada Davtyan, PAM se-nior. One thing all dancers have in common is their love for danc-ing, learning, and growing as a performer. “Dancing opened something new to me... Being a part of

something bigger than yourself is exciting,” said Josh Arguelles, SAS junior. Dancers work for months at the time, using the process of repetition until they have per-fected it. The dancers in Moulin Rouge worked for months, having to stay after school until late at night. In the end, however, the show was a success, and the months of rehearsals paid off. “When you step on the stage, the sense of nervousness turns to excitement and because of that, you look and feel more confident,” said experienced dancer Leonie De La Rosa. As a reward for their hard

work and fundraising, this May 21-22, PAM dancers will have the opportunity to go to the 29th Annual Southwest Move-ment and Acro-Sports Work-shop, an intensive workshop where they can learn all styles of dance. “The young people learn new dances that they don’t learn here at Hollywood High, such as belly dancing, tumbling, the concepts of yoga, and how to do makeup. Dancers also get the joy of working with other danc-ers from other schools,” said Thompson. “The workshop... increases the concepts of dance to many different styles.”
