1 MR. MARION O, OPPELT MR. HAROLD F. GRAY Deputy Superintendent Assistant Superintendent Tree Downea' in Columbus Day Wind Say Trees, limbs, leaves and litter decorated the south campus of Clover Park after 60 mile winds raced unchecked for many terrifying hours. 11 MR. MAURICE OWENS Administrative Assistant Board gf Directors On Columbus Day in 1962, the Tacoma area was hit by a terrific wind storm. A large amount of property in the Lakewood area was ruined. Clover Park did not escape damage. A number of trees were uprooted, including some huge oaks in the parking lot, but the biggest loss was the beautiful maple tree in front of the South Building. That tree was thought by all to be the loveliest on the campus. Its gor- geous red foliage welcomed students to school in the fall and the new green leaves bid them a bright farewell in the spring. When the wind blew the thirty year old maple down tree surgeons were asked if they could save it. They found the roots were damaged too much for a completely successful replant so the tree was removed. In order to fill the space left vacant by the tree and also as an aid to the beauti- fication of the campus the Board of Di- rectors is replacing the magnificent old maple with a lovely pin oak. The pin oak is a species with small, sharp-pointed, deeply incised leaves.

In addition to a busy schedule of school administra- tive duties, Mr. Hageness' position as district superin- tendent requires his active participation in community and civic life. Because the school is such a vital part of the community, its administration requires close work- ing relationships with business, service, and profession- al groups. He also is active in church work where he teaches a Sunday School class of high school students. For recreation Mr. Hageness enjoys gardening, sports, mainly as a spectator now, and travel, both actual and armchair variety. Although on year round duty in his position, he does spend vacation days, when possible, in a beach cabin retreat on Puget Sound. There, with no phones to answer nor television to watch, it gives the family, seven members in all, opportunity to renew acquant- ancesf' T.
