Kstlier Grimes pretends to be Monte Hall while introducing a girl of the month. Jeff Smith and Reid Hutchins load up Christmas goodies for the under- privileged. Snowball fights were a favorite December sport for many enthusiasts. 2 From Homecoming to graduation, spirit at West Albany was exposed in all facets of school life. It was evident not only in sports, but also in learning and group activities. A new wave of enthusiasm involving sports took the form of hall decorating. The classes were assigned halls to decorate for class competition. The sharing of ideas and work was overwhelming to the students and the faculty. More participation in school government was also evident. The student body was faced with having a student body president resign and the vice-president take over. Many decisions were made by student government this year, ranging from deciding about write-in votes to dispersing student body funds. Learning by most students was enjoyed more than in past years because of the variety of classes that were available. Mini-courses were offered last year, but they got well under way this year. The 1972-1973 school year, as a whole, was one that will be computed in the memory banks of all the people who participated in and enjoyed it as a year of increased school spirit. while varied experiences enliven school routine. 4 (. lock wist from right: Mr. Knapp signifit-s w ith his finger that his High-Q tram wa number one in the valley league.

The dubbing assembly kicked off the week on Monday. Competition followed between the classes, not only in hall decorating, but in tricycle races and yells led by the Rally. Queen Nancy Grader claimed her throne at an assembly on Thursday. She then reigned over the pep rally which preceded a dance and light show in the cafeteria that night. The spirit of victory rose to its greatest height on Friday when the Dogs defeated the Lebanon Warriors 7-6. The homecoming dance after the game proved to be one of the best attended dances of the year. 12 Court members from left to right: front. Jeri Parker. Queen Nancy Grader. Annette Jean. back.

I he Hi-Q team lost one of their more important meets to Washington High School on K.G.W. T.V. Mr. John Knapp, the Hi-Q coach, felt that the team’s weakness was in the literature portion of the television meet. He said. “We didn’t know they would ask literature questions that were so difficult.’ I lie team’s overall record was 6 wins and 2 losses. In order to raise money for new practice boards, the organization sponsored Free Fare, a rock group. I lie group performed a preview assembly for the student body, and the following night gave a live concert. 15 J Murder and suspense highlight fall play “Dear Phoebe”, a comedy about a professor who became a love-lorn columnist, was presented as the fall play November 16, 17 and 18. 1 hough his idealized dreams of newspaper life did not come true, he solved a murder case, cracked open a gambling racket, became managing editor and fell in love with the female sports writer. Student director Karla Wald commented “The performances were very good and it was a good cast. The audience dragged somewhat in the beginning of the first act, but picked up when Mike walked in in his dress. “After the last performance, I felt a touch of sadness and a touch of relief that I lived through it; a bit of happiness because it was fun working with it, and sadness because it was all over.” Clockwise from above: Victoria Parrish (Robin Santos) is insulted and repulsed by Big Joe Moroni’s (Reid Hutchins) behavior.

I his first excitement added to the fun of the prom, assemblies, concerts, and collecting of food boxes. Crepe paper in two shades of blue, a manger scene and a star as the centerpiece illustrated the theme “Once Upon a Star”. Favors were blue Christmas halls with small stars painted on. Music was provided by the Springfield Stage Band. The last main event of the season came as Miss Merry Christmas was announced at the all school assembly. Three girls had competed for the title hv selling baked goods and raffle tickets. Connie Arnold was crowned for having made the most money.

Although the three act play was serious, the students had a good time putting it together. “In spite of the had weather, cancelled school, and inexperience, the play went quite well, stated Gayle Samuelson, a cast member. The plot centered around Death who comes to earth in human form and tries to experience every emotion. Love overpowers him and he is forced to take his lover Grazia (Laryn Dole) hack with him.

Free Faro, and the Ambassadors wore just some of tin diverse experiences offered in assemblies. Dr. London Smith, a noted pediatrician, drew applause and laughter as he told students his views on adolescence and sex. The doctor’s humorous approach to the problems of growing up was a welcome change from the typical staid lecture. Different types of music ranging from swing to rock were presented at assemblies. I he “Ambassadors” from Eastern Oregon College in La Grande entertained students with old pop favorites. “Free Fare” from Saint Petersburg. Florida, played current hits and put on a short comedy act. During spirit week, numerous assemblies took place, including a close faculty-student basketball game which the faculty won in overtime. 25 Deadwood Dick” makes money “Deadwood Dick,” a tale of tragedies resolved, justice to the wicked and virtue triumphant was presented as the spring play. Set in the old west where had men were obnoxiously had and good men were chivalrously good, the play portrayed Ned Harris as the hero of all heros who along with his partner were able to overcome all odds to rescue the Blossom sisters from their troubles. With the risk of being hanged and shot, he willingly pursued his tasks on their behalf, making it possible for all to live happily ever after. “ ‘Deadwood Dick’ made a lot of money was was very good for drawing audiences,” commented Mike Cooley who had the part of the lead hero. “ I he cast was great but the audiences had a lot to do with the success because they helped the actors’ attitudes toward the play.” Clockwise from above: Teetotal I essie I Becky Bonn) makes one of her raids on the barroom.

What began as a hassle for the juniors turned out to be a beautiful event for all who attended the 1973 Jr.-Sr. Prom. The juniors had no money for a prom, and the rumor that there would be ho prom set the seniors howling. Their protests set the juniors to action with money-making projects. And so the baby-blue and lime-green prom came to be. The juniors elected the all-senior court which consisted of five girls and five boys. The court was dubbed at a Girls’ League assembly. The princesses were Cindy Farner, Ann Brenneman, Teresa Ashby, Teresa Winn, and Diana Ragland. The princes, also serving as escorts for the girls, were Bob Ivers, Kevin Greig, Doug Lathen, Mark Boehne, and Bruce Decker. After the dubbing assembly, the juniors again voted, this time to select the king and queen of the prom. On May 19, the night of the prom, Mark Boehne and Teresa Winn were announced as the choices of the class of 1974. 28 In the background. Bub Barrett and Joan Evcrsole arc a typical couple.

The Philomath Invite and the Hudson Bay Invite in Washington were particularly successful when West Albany came back with first place, defeating such perennials as Castle Rock and Columbia Basin. The district competition was more disappointing as the harriers were harassed by injuries. In one of the most diffuclt races at Bush Park in Salem, number one runner John Ludwig was injured, ending his chances to win the district meet. 1972 CROSS COUNTRY Sprague.....................................34 South Salem.................................37 WEST ALBANY.................................51 WEST ALBANY.................................24 South Albany................................44 Lebanon...............................No Score McNary......................................29 WEST ALBANY.................................42 Crescent Valley.............................58 Corvallis...................................32 North Salem.................................38 WEST ALBANY.................................SO Invitational Meets Hudson Bay Invitational Run-A-Ree West Albany 1ST-8 teams...................29 Philomath Invitational West Albany 1ST-5 teams...................36 North Marion Invitational West Albany 4TH-12 teams.................108 Nor Clackamas Invitational West Albany 10TH-15 teams.................CT South Albany Invitational West Albany 1ST-7 teams.................. 49 District Meet Sprague.....................................57 McNary......................................63 Corvallis..................................106 WEST ALBANY................................126 South Salem................................132 Crescent Valley............................135 North Salem ...............................161 South Albany...............................163 Lebanon....................................214 39 Swim team splashes to success Top row: Greg Rogers, unnamed member.

A very successful season resulted from long hours of practice. Only one time were the Bulldogs defeated this year. This defeat came from none other than the Corvallis Spartans. After winning all but one meet, the Bulldogs did not place any better than third place at district, behind Corvallis and the victors. Philomath. Senior Steve Wimer contributed a lot to the Bulldog’s wins. He constantly won butterfly and individual medley races, both of which are his specialty. The underclassmen showed a lot of depth and consistency and should keep the Bulldogs in winning form. 40 Clockwise from far left: Steve Wimer gulps a breath of air before taking another powerful stroke.

I he 1972-73 basketball season was the year of the come-back. With a record of three wins and five losses, the Bulldogs tied for fifth place in the first half of Valley League competition. But in the second half the Bulldogs came back with a record of seven wins and one loss. This record gave them first place in the V alley League for the second half, and put them in a play-off with North Salem to see which team would go to state. North Salem went when West Albany dropped the first two games in the best of three series.

Sprague was the only team the Bulldogs couldn’t beat. And the Bulldogs fought their way to a third place at the district tournament. All of the team will return next year with the exception of Mike Nix who was the team captain this year. The number two man. Tim Reid, is just a freshman. Balance was the greatest strength of the tennis team. There was almost no difference between the third and the eighth men. The substitutes on the team defeated South Albany and Stayton without help from the sixth man up. A few individuals received awards for their efforts. Leif Carlson, Mike Nix, Tim Reid, and Randy Harrison won the Hustler of the Week award and Leif Carlson won the Ted Brown Memorial trophy.

Their only defeat came at the hands of the Medford team which took first in state. The strenjfth of the girls’ team came in the excellent performances of two junior girls and one senior girl who constantly scored upsets. I he team also had good depth and strong relief from some outstanding sophomores and freshmen. File doubles combo of Patty and Julie O’Hearn powered their way to a district win in the doubles and then overcame a fourth seed to place second at state, losing to the almighty Medford doubles team. An upcoming freshman, Deanne Larsell, upset her way into the quarterfinals of the district tennis championship to qualify for state. She had to beat top seeds to do it. Another state qualifier. Wendy Tripp, also had to upset a top- seeded player to earn a state berth. An 11-1 season is not easy to equal, hut with good depth from this year the girls’ team should be strong again in ’74.

Although the dual-meet season as a whole was not entirely successful the performances by the underclasswomen indicate a strong team next year. Freshman Ellen Schmidt broke a district 880 record setting the new time of 2:21.8. Monica Neibuhr set a long jump record of l6’-0”. Kathy Grimes and Ellen Schmidt qualified for state.

Headed bv some clutch performances by seniors this year, West Albany’s track team raced to a 6-2-1- dual meet record. The Bulldogs were not rated as contenders in the valley league title race earlier this year, but as the season wore on the other valley league teams realized that West Albany was a threat. One of the big wins for the track squad came when the Bulldogs defeated Corvallis in the first dual meet of the season. A misunderstanding about a rule caused the OSAA to declare the victory a tie. Al Shibley set a school record in the discus with a throw of 176’5”. This distance was an Oregon best most of the season. Bruce Jensen pushed the pole vault record over thirteen feet with a vault of 13’3”. John Ludwig sprinted past Kevin Cooley of Sprague in a dual meet to set a new two mile record of 9:18.8. Other new records were 44.0 in the 440 relay and a 40.9 in the 330 yd. intermediate hurdles. In district and state action the Bulldogs did not fare so well with a third place at district and a fortieth place at state.

Bob Parsons showed a good talent for middle distance running as he ran off a best time of 2:04.6 in the 880 yard run. Steve Ludwig showed promise in the mile and two mile events. Mark Matthews blazed a S4.5 440 yard dash and Kim Jackson sprinted to a 23.8 in the 220 yard run. The only team the sophomores lost to was Lebanon.

Organizations 63 Committees search for meaningful goals The five Standing Committees encountered many frustrations as they tried to become more effective in school affairs. Ideally, the committees would provide students with the opportunity to criticize and plan their education. Open campus, modular scheduling, and no bells were proposals for the future studied by the Evaluation Committee. A new purpose was developed for the Evaluation Committee, switching emphasis from club constitution evaluation to a more general evaluation of all facets of school life. Apathy among committee members and the student body threatened to end the Assembly Committee. After a brief cancellation of assemblies, there was a renewed interest and they went on to produce assemblies throughout the year. Distributing and counting ballots for every major school election was the job of the Election Committee. They worked on elections ranging from Student Body officers to senior announcements. Furnishing the new student lounge was one of the activities of the Social Committee. They also organized the events of Homecoming, which included an evening rally and dance. 64 New challenges face student body officers Solving the smoking problem was a major concern of the student body officers. Trying to change rules for unwed mothers and married people, and looking into the modular system were other activities. After the resignation of Student Body President Roger Asai in January, First Y'ice President Cindy Farner took the job. Dan Bryant was elected to fill her position.

Band performs community service Tlic three bands. Concert, Varsity, and Pep Band, performed valuable services to the school and community during the year. The Concert Band hosted an exchange concert with Springfield in which each hand gave a short presentation. Concert Band also traveled to Alsea to give one program for the student body and later that evening, one for the public. In addition to going away to play, the hand, directed by Mr. Thomas Hogan, gave their three annual concerts to the community. Led by Drum Major Rob Sutter, the hand added spirit to school by playing and marching during halftime at all home football games. In an attempt to make money. Concert Band had a car wash and movies. This money went toward scholarships for Band Camp. Flag Team made enough money to pay for their uniforms by working in the concession stand at both basketball games and the movies. One of the highlights of Pep Band was a trip to Jefferson at which they were invited to play for a basketball game. They were also an attraction at the home games, contributing enthusiasm as well as music. 66 Bottom Row: Bev Karstens, Karen Kenagy. Debra Byer, Andrea Keister. Diane Bolton. Anther LaCoursiere.

The newspaper functioned under the co-editors Lora Cuykendall and Claudia Kyle, with Miss Kay Olson as advisor. 71 Girls’ League sponsors involvement Girls’ League opened the year with the annual Big-Little Sister Party.

Cox this year. Dr. Evans stated that the major concern for the administration was to get people to adjust to change. He would like to see both students and teachers adjust to the mini-courses that are av ailable. Other expectations of events forseen by the administration are having meetings with the school board and dealing with the smoking and pregnancy- policies brought up by the student body officers. Talking specifically about West Albany. Mr. Stan Czech, principal, commented that the spirit of the student body has made a definite mark for other classes to live up to. 90 Clockwise from top left: icc-Principal Terry Murray looks up from his work. 1 he 1972-1973 school board members are Dr. Gene Carlson.

According to the plans, students will he able to look up information on jobs at their convenience. Mr. Beltram is a new counselor at West Albany, having transferred from Klamath Falls. He teaches two classes a day, but says that teaching keeps him in close contact with the students. Besides teaching two classes, an increasing amount of the counselors’ time was claimed by scheduling for the mini-courses. Alfred Beltram Elaine Green Ted Moon 92 Science becomes more challenging We' ve really leaned toward experimentation this year,” said chemistry teacher, Mr. Welander. Students are going out for more of a challenge, so there has been less physical science, and quite a lot more chemistry. In sophomore biology, the individual was stressed, and since classes were less crowded, there were many facilities to work with. The science department worked very hard to coordinate the junior and senior high science program with the elective classes, and Mr. Welander felt it had been quite successful. Clockwise from top left: Mrs. Green smiles while working out schedules. Mr. Welander works on one of his harder chemistry problems. Listening attentively to a biology student.

This year mini-courses were continued, hut a few changes have been made. Easy Writer and People and Places have been added, and because of the expense, film making had to be dropped. The English Department saw several new teachers who have added much to the program. Coach Dasch taught literature of sports, and Mr. Heintzman taught Business English. The only real addition the department wanted to make was to offer more courses for the college bound student. These courses could be available if enough students show their interest.

Senior review was altered and seven geometry classes were offered. Senior review was changed to business math and practical geometry to practical math. The purpose of the change was to offer a wider variety of material that students will encounter later in life. Miss Wells said she would like to see a little more interest in the juniors and seniors, and that We really need more students to get involved who are willing to do the work.” 96 Business department offers 25 classes This year there were 25 business classes, including shorthand, typing, office practice, bookkeeping, and business machines. Mr. Heintzman said he thought some students were pulling away from some of the maths and sciences to take business courses. For the future, the Business Department would like to arouse more interest in the junior highs, and hopefully make some of the business courses into mini-classes for the years to come.

Most of the classes start out with a broad base of activities the first year, specialize the second, and go into mass production the third year. The vocational department has become more and more popular.

They have also read magai.:nes, sung songs, and received letters from pen pals abroad. M iss Brown’s Latin classes observed the Roman Saturnalia and planned a Latin Banquet in May. They also built a catapult to enter in the national catapult contest in May. All the foreign language teachers agree there is an increasing need for a foreign language in today’s world. Clockwise from top left: Mrs. Tellvik uses her prep period to gradr her French classes papers. Mr. Luster gives Julie Draper a few pointers for track season.

Yes, that's what happened in girls P.E. this year. Miss Lowell pulled her ingenuity together and let the girls do this during a spare week. The P.E. classes also played tennis and ping pong, and practiced archery and tumbling. In health, many students received their First Aid cards by staying after school and learning what to do in the case of an accident. During drivers education several speakers, including a policeman, a tire salesman, and an insurance agent, came to give students expert information.

Crime and delinquency classes had speakers such as two life- term convicts speaking on the prison system and Dr. Varga speaking on V.D. Marriage and divorce classes went to the divorce court, and the juniors saw the movie. TRUEGRIT. I he emphasis this year has been to get the students involved in class activities and resources in the Albany area. “ I he students seem interested in the work.” says Mr. Brenneman. “This year's seniors are the first to go through both years of our new program, and they seem to like it.” Clockwise from top left: While students complete a written assignment. Mr. Swink listens to a question. Before class starts. Mr. Huhhard writes a problem on the board for his students. Mr. Brenneman looks up during the game Liberte, designed to teach students about the fuedal system. 103 Small tasks add up Working without much recognition, the cooks, custodians, and secretaries have accomplished many important tasks for the students and teachers. The things they do every day such as sweeping halls, writing excuses, and cooking lunch add up to a lot of work. The secretaries are often busy training several girls in the office as secretarial receptionists. With the help of the nurse, the bookstore clerk, and the bus drivers, they make the school run smoothly.

Participating in projects such as selling T-shirts and spearheading the student body Veterans Day float showed class enthusiasm. Seniors influenced passage of a bill to use student body funds rather than junior class money to pay for graduation decorations. Thinking of West Albany’s future, the senior class donated their remaining funds to the school library. In the center of the student lounge patio the seniors planted a silver leaf maple tree as a reminder of their class. 106 Alexander, Ken Altman, Mike Arnold, Connie Ashby, Teresa Atchinson, Dennis Audiss, Scott Ayers, Mary Backer, Konnie Balducci, Marsha Barber, Paul Bass, Connie Bastian, Rick Beasley, Allen Belknap, Dave Benson, Judy 107 Brenneman, Mike Bryant, Dan Burrus, Karen Bustillos, Veronica Campbell, Pausha Carrick, Patrick Cate, Mike Christie, Mark Climer, Dan Coats, Elaine Cobb, Dan Connelly, Wayne Conrad, John Cooley, Mike Cray, Jack 108 Cray, Ted Cronk, Rhonda Crooke, Debbie Cuykendall, Lora Dalesky, Glenna Dalke, Rick Daniels, Darca Davis, Keith Decker, Bruce Dickinson, Jim Dickinson, Steven Dingee, Bill Drummond, David Drummond, Julie Dukart, Pam 109 After an exhaustingly long problem Karla VV’ald expresses her reaction.
