Marysville Union High School - Tomahawk Yearbook (Marysville, CA)

ut, you know, the last couple of years I have noticed a few students picking up litter. I wonder why they were picking it up-maybe to raise their grade in a certain class. I don't think it's because they care. But this campus isn't as dirty as it used to be. Even the clubs have painted their own trash cans to help out with the problem. Speaking of helping out, I haven't noticed any empty concession stands at games. There have always been people willing to help out for an hour or so for their club. It's nice of them to give their time. I guess I was a little hard on the kids at the school. They really aren't all that bad. Maybe I'm the one with something bad. I've overlooked all the helpful things students do. I see how much time kids do put into their high school activities. I've overlooked all the nice things that students do. I remember the boys taking the girls to lunch. And the students who volunteer as teachers' aids to help other students with math or English. I guess it's not that bad being a tree in a parking lot. I would miss a lot if I wasn't here. l'd miss the buildings, teachers, students, the enioyment of high school. I guess being the MHS parking lot tree might be worth it. QCDDCQ the story

. This year, different as any other year, brought on many changes for the entire strata of MHS. Trying to express this change in the 1977 TOMAHAWK was an immense task. Presently it may be somewhat hard to fully appreciate the theme of the 1977 book, but within 10 to 15 years it will be treasured. Yes, I know you would love to see more pictures Iespecially of yourselfll, but a picture cannot tell it all and that's where the writing is needed-to tell the concept of the year. With the idea of going more profoundly into high school life, we added indepth feature stories and student-teacher quotes into the regular body copy. Not really having a cliche theme this year, but rather a concept of togetherness in mind, the 1977 TOMAHAWK signifies the taking root of MHS. Taking root -what does it mean? After splitting with LHS, MHS moved into a new kind of framework during the 1976 year. Now, 1977, MHS is finally breaking any last ties with LHS, starting over, and taking root into a future uneffected by the split of the two schools. To demonstrate the new start, we spoke through the immoral parking lot tree. Being over a hundred years old, who better could see all the phasing changes of MHS. Through him we created the memories and perplexities of high school during 1977. The tree could see the sparkle coming into the school as the class of '80 entered and the glow the class of '77 left behind and so Sometimes I Wish I was a Student was the title we gave the book. Yes, maybe in ten years you'll reminisce and wish you were a student at MHS again. You'll look at this book and you'll remember-you'll remember the basketball championship you won, the chopping down of a senior sign you did, the cherished moments of the prom that you helped organize, and the first place float that you worked so hard on for football Homecoming. All these and many more unforgettable remembrances will return to you all because of a small special group called the TOMAHAWK staff. I would like to thank the entire staff and give my sincere appreciation to them for the tremendous effort, time , work, yes, and even tears, put into the 1977 TOMAHAWK. I am more than satisfied with their performance and content to have had the pleasure of working with such fine people. Thank you so much for putting up with me, my violent temper, rages, my everlasting problems, my nutty brainstorms, and my undecisive indecisions. But, really thanks for being not only you, but for being my friend. I would like every one of you to know it really does take talented people to be on the yearbook staff, and each member on my staff possess true qualities and so much potential that would be hard to find elsewhere. I would like to thank Mr. Boneck for helping me understand myself and making me a better individual. lPoor ol' Mr. Boneck, I bet he never had a staff with so many traumatic problems like us- ha ha-inside iokel.
