 When the Governor came to talk with our school, we didn't really talk about school government, it was more state govern -ment, which was okay but didn’t really focus on what we were doing. This year’s student council is doing pretty well. We have a lot of ideas that just need to go into order.” -Tami Schrock Governor Aiiyeh greeted the special education students as he left.

■ Spirits High-Participation Encouraged 1 I Student Council By Amy Bollman Spirit this year has never been higher! Student Council members really hit a positive note this year encouraging student participation. Rooter buses were packed, assemblies were jumping, and student actions showing support, were all positive. Student Body Vice President. Beth Engel, had this to say, 'Getting people involved this year has really been important. but it hasn't always been easy!” This year unlike others, student council members also had the rare opportunity of meeting with the Governor of Oregon. Victor Atiyeh. Junior. Julie Baxter, made this comment. It was quite a surprise that he chose to visit with our school, but the experience was neat.” Although the student council did a really good job accomplishing what they set out to do. it took a lot of time and effort to make things happen. Kirsten Newton, Publicity Chairman, assured us of that; 'Getting things done has really been a lot harder than I thought it would be. You have to put a lot of yourself into what you're doing.” With this we realize that although the work hasn't always been made aware of, student council members have given up a lot of their time to bring students together and make our high school years ones to remember. Governor Atiyeh speaks to IXH.S. students at a press conference. Students asked questions about Government. State and Local issues. Student Body President Robert Salinas, shakes the Governor’s hand. The Governor was presented with a D.H.S. t-shirt and portfolio.

And So We Enter. . . “Ih Sit,11 life” By Trudy Pack Students had a variety of activities to choose from to keep their night life occupied. Among these activities were pizza socials at Ugo’s, (located here in Dallas), football games, club sponsored dances, or just quiet evenings at home. Not only did students enjoy night life in Dallas, but could more often than not, be found in Salem cruising the infamous Gut” or donning their dancing shoes at Razzles”, where night life was always an interesting affair. Parties were also a frequent occur -ance and a time for fellow classmates and students alike to escape the pressures of school and have an all-around good time. Said Junior, Jeff Peterson, I go to parties because I like social gatherings. With so much to do, it’s always surprising to hear students complaining from lack of things to do. Nevertheless, some complained while others enjoyed a multitude of fun-filled evenings with family and friends alike. Not all enjoyed fun and games though. Some worked and if all else failed, one might be found doing a solo at the movies or at home. All-in-all, student night life represented the freedom enjoyed by students and never ceased to be both busy for some and interesting and exciting for others. Brad Herbison (fr.), Daneite Mason (jr.), Jason White (fr.), and Theresa Russell (jr.) enjoy an evening among friends. The occa-' sion? A birthday party thrown for Danette Mason. 28
