HCNIEWARD BOUND ln the 1979-1980 school year, 7 foreign exchange students arrived at Bremerton High, coming from all parts of the world. During their stay here, they came up against many kinds of people and the different ways that we live our lives. The Gauntlet staff interviewed them and this is what they learned: Marion Baulsch: Australia. To us the weather change from rain to snow is nothing new, but to Marion it was quite an experience, she had never seen snow before. Sandra Cesar: Brazil. The hardest thing for her to adiust to was the way that we dress. She would like to return. Gabriela QGabyD LaPrebende: Argen- tina. She enjoyed being here because we have more opportunities. She would like to come back and go to college. Marisol fMariaJ Stone: Chile. She likes tennis and hopes to return to study 1 chemistry. Anne Nygren: Norway. She thinks that anything that has to do with peanut but- ter is weird and cruising is stupid. Afsoongar QBambiJ Amir Ebrahimi: lran. Bambi disagrees with the others, she says that school here is harder than it was in Iran. Hoda Bakhshandagi: lran. lt was very unusual to him to find that the girls go af- ter the guys, in Iran they follow the old traditions. Neither he nor Bambi will re- turn to Iran. Adjusting to our language, customs, and food was a challenge, although it seems they agree on hamburgers, french fries, and milkshakes as favorite Ameri- can foods. We on the Gauntlet staff hope that the foreign exchange students had a very nice stay in the U.S. Counterclockwise from upper right: Hoda Bakhshandagi, Afsoongar Amir Ebrahimi, Marion Baulsch, Marisol Stone, Sandra Cesar, Anne Nygren, Gabriela LaPrebende.

Marshall 140 Senior Tea Towards the end of the school year the Senior Tea committee puts on a Tea for the graduating class. The committee which consists of underclass girls headed by Mrs. Anderson, provides an after- noon of food, drinks, and entertainment. This one day of fun for the Seniors takes these girls a year of hard work. To raise money the committee sponsors dances, car washes, and a flower sale on Valen- tine's Day. Along with the Tea the girls also do Se- nior of the Month. Mary Kay Rausch, Rita Pierce: Co-Chairmen
