The Trico Football Championship was the first since 1943. The team ef- fort and spirit was high. For the first time in 6 years Washougal was defeated by the tough Spudders. Castle Rock and R.H.S. were undefeated in league play going into the last game of the season. Playing an inspiring game before the largest crowd at a football game in R.H.S. history. The Spudders Won the game and the Trico Championship. A nucleus of fine juniors and Sophomores are looking forward to next season. 771,19 THE SIDELINE!

Though there were only two regulars back from last year's team, it was felt that in Gerald Bryson and john Wells the team had two of the best players in the League and hoped that the inexperience of the rest of the team wouldn't prove to be too harmful. There was also a size problem. The Spudders turned out to be the smallest team in the League. john Wells' loss via injuries about mid-season was a real blow to the team. The team's lack of heighth had to be made up by speed. The boys proved to be fast enough but their inexperience caused many mistakes and frequent losses of the ball. On the optimistic side, john Wells, al- though playing half of the season with a broken bone in his right wrist did a com- mendable job and was always an inspiration to the rest of the team. Gerald Bryson con- tinued to play fine basketball even though every team played put at least two men on him. All the way down the roster RHS had a group of boys who worked hard at prac- tice, played hard in games, and never quit hustling. Much Valuable experience was gained by the underclassmen. jack Anderson was voted the inspirational award. jerry Lander and Dan Smith tied for the most improved player award. This much improved team looks forward to next year with high hopes . 43 . -.fQfr 'w.sfwff1f,..wg,va .. . ..,M...,....

Unfortunately along with the challenges, one of the Weaknesses of our age is our apparent inability to distinguish our needs from our greeds. I hope you have learned from your educational experience at Ridgefield that more than any other one thing idealistic goals are most important in creating and molding the type of citizen our country needs. Proper educational goals are not grades honors, diplomas, or degrees, these are but symbols, useful for purposes of motivating the student. Skill in all subjects are essential parts of a sound education, but these are means toward an end, and should not be confused with goals . The ultimate goal of education for free men in a free society in Wisdom--the ability to make Wise independent decisions based upon accurate facts, clear reasoning, and understanding. Graduates, in your future relation: with others, l hope you temper your academic training with common sense and morality in establishing your personal goals. Good Luck. Louis Grinnell, Superintendent ve .guna-un This year's school board consisted of Roy Garrison jr. , Ray Ellis, Donald Kemper, Lorene Bryan, Ed Fitzsimmons, and Louis Grinnell. llO Y, Zfriuczjwzlis' Message This book, the 1966 Oralue, presents a pictorial review of the 1965-66 school year and the students, ' teachers, and events which made it a memorable one. Within its pages you will find a graphic hi story of a school year which began September 7, l965 and ended june 8, 1966, and of all the friends and activities which i W made it an important year in the lives of each of us . To our graduating class it was important as the final chapter in a public school career which began twelve years ago. The many personal associations and friendships which they have made through these years will now become but pleasant mem- ories. Each graduate will now chart a course of his own. We hope that his twelve years in school has given him the foundation upon which to build a happy and satisfying life. To our under-classmen it was an important year as they progressed to their ultimate goal of a high school diploma. We look to them for the continuation of the fine i traditions and exemplary records set by those who preceded them. It was an important year too, for the teaching staff as they saw the results of their efforts taking shape in what they hope will be the responsible, productive citizens of , tomorrow . My congratulations and sincere thanks to each of you. Wayne Ball, Principal Q qs-... Mrs. Wray was not only Mr. Ball's secretary, but also a mother to us all.

We have had expectations, disappointments, joys, tears, excite- ments, and boredom. But through all we have each made our own wonder- ful memories. The hope of the Oralue staff is that you will find a good collection of your memories in this, your l966 Oralue. While reflecting, l must also take time to think of all the wonderful people who have helped to make this yearbook possible. At the head of the list there are many people who have contributed enormously of themselves Only one of these is Mr. jim Howell, the yearbook representative for our district. While Mr. Howell had many schools to cover he was always able to give us suggestions that added the personal touch to the yearbook. Mr. Burris, who, as you know, takes care of our wonderful library and teaches Latin, gave up many an afternoon correcting the mistakes the staff had let slip by. Then there is Mr. Ball. There was many an afternoon when he didn't even have time to catch his breath but he was always Willing to hunt up a copy of one thing or another that I had to have right then. And who doesn't know about Mrs. Wray and her never ending help to all of us with our many different problems . Suddenly a deadline would loom up and we would need a picture of someone and Mrs. Wray would dig into her desk of tricks to come to the rescue. Very few realize the enormous help this yearbook has received from justin's Studio and Mr. jim justin. justin's has supplied us with everything from film and processing to photographers like Mr. Bill Smith and Mr. Earl Gear for picture days. Others who contributed to the success of the Oralue include Mr. Reich- elt who was kind enough to let the staff invade his room everyday after school. Mr. Creear, Mr. Massie, Mrs. Kellar, Mr. jacobus, and Mr. Collins helped to add the all important personal touch to the book by writ- ing coaches' messages for their particular sports. Last, but far from least, is the Oralue staff. Each member added his own special touch to the pages he did. Georgiana Lentz, next year's editor, came in late in the year but that didn't stop her from learning as much as possible and using a lot of imagination in applying it. I will never forget Becky Gosch and Carolyn Wilson and the loads of help they gave me when I was in a tight squeeze because of a deadline. Always willing to contribute as much time as they could were Pat Bramlett, Mary Janes, and Linda Kennedy. Sue Ybarrando and Sheila Davenport helped even after school was over. A very conscientious worker is Sue Goodnight who kept working throughout the entire year. Another senior who often stayed after every night of the week was Chris Crum. Eloise Thornberry, though only a Sophomore, was probably the hardest worker of all. She often stayed and helped me out till 6 p.m. Oralue Editor WW QW 128
