1979-1980 WoSmiA Qckoods Comiumtty D(sbdct Mcv. SOS Wahut, 61276 Wk 44- Jaaefc E l. The 1979-80 Annual Staff dedicates the 44th edition of the Walnut Tree to Mr. John E. Bolz. Mr. Bolz began teaching at his alma mater, W.H.S., in 1962. He directs the band and choruses and watches over study halls. He is the girls’ tennis coach and the junior class sponsor. Besides his many activities in the school, he also is active in the community. On behalf of the students at Walnut High School, we wish to thank Mr Bolz for his leadership and enthusiasm.

Richard Eckberg, Delbert Carr. Dr. S. S. Frank—President. Glen Gonigam—Secretary, Merle Von Holten. Leslie Schott TO THE CLASS OF 1980 . . . You are the first graduating class of the new decade, a decade that begins with rampant inflation, Russian aggression in Afghanistan, American hostages in Iran, and social problems at home of immense proportions. This is the atmosphere in which you will begin your productive lives—or seek advanced education. But remember that every cloud has a bright side as well as a dark side. The problems of the 80’s—aggression, inflation, social problems, reinstatement of the draft, and others—also create new challenges, new opportunities, and new incentives. Cling to the “bright side as we enter the future. Do your best, and go with our best wishes for every success. Superintendent 6 Lawrence Eggleston. Superintendent Lawrence P. Eggleston Bs, Ms. Adv.

Whitaker Executive Director Back in October, six seniors decided they would like to participate in Presidential Classroom for Young Americans. From that time until the middle of January, the group raised funds to attend P C. by contacting sponsors, selling ice cream bars at the school, holding a dance, and working at the concession stand during a basketball game. Beginning in the middle of January through the first part of March, the individuals each spent a week in Washington, D.C., where they studied the many areas of American national government. A major aspect of the program was the opportunity to meet other high school students from across the United States After they returned, the participants told of their experiences to some of the sponsoring organizations.

Monday evenings first semester and Mondays after school, second semester, the staff worked so that our 1979-1980 school year could be captured in print. The staff is grateful to teachers and students for their cooperation in the making of this volume. We hope all will find this book to be an accurate record of the exciting year that it was. Not pictured on these pages but deserving of credit for their share in the production of this book are Sally loder, Linda Warling, Norine Olson, Ann Magnuson, Jim Eggleston, Rich Fairbanks, Deb Christensen, and Kim Anderson.
