Swimmers Stroke to .500 Season. The swimming and diving closed out the season this year with the boys finishing 4-4. while the girls finished the season 4-3. The teams, however, were much smaller with the absences of such outstanding members as two time state champion and all American diver Glen Ga- lemmo. and swimmers John Dubay ad Mary Younkers. The boys team was led by senior divers Frank Quinby and John Pflugrath. both of whom qualified for state, and junior swimmer Doug MacCraw. The girls team was led by diving state qualifier Kathy Zimmer and swimmer Sue Stamp. Team coach Jo Meckel stated that the team s smaller size hurt them somewhat this year, but the team worked hard to get in gear for the state swimming meet. At the state meet, the team faired pretty well. The girls 400 freestyle relay consisting of Kris Guerrero. Angle Humphrey. Carolyn Nethers. and Cathy Seaman, finished tenth, while Sue Stamp broke the school record in the 100 meter breaststroke. John Pflugrath finished ninth in the diving, while Frank Quinby finished second, and qualified for all American status. It should also be noted with great pride that the men divers have remained undefeated in dual meets over the last seven seasons compiling an impressive record of 68-0.

Student activities parallel the student ' s cur- riculum and their future. Activities help build mutual support within groups as the vertical parallel lines help to support the horizontal par- allel lines. The struggles are often the begin- nings of maturity. Laughter, fatigue, compas- sion, and love, you will find throughout the pages of activities. In using the parallelogram to represent activi- ties we link together our high school years and find independence. As one era of our life ends, another begins. Aczmzjes
