Kent Johansen welcomes Kiwanls Golden K” Members: Virgil Wasson. Elwood Cruse. Robert Lewellyn and Robert Wurtz. Golden 'K’ Sponsors Yearbook The Dixon Golden K” Kiwanis Club de- serves a very big thanks this year. If it were not for them no one would be able to have a yearbook. Last year due to budget cuts the yearbook advisor increment was cut. Mr. German and Mr. Johansen were speaking to the Golden K” about the problems and they mentioned the need for a sponsor for the yearbook. Mr. El- wood Cruse, the President at the time, brought up the suggestion to sponsor the yearbook and after discussion it was al- most unanimous in favor of the high school students. The club decided to sponsor the year- book because they remembered how im- portant the yearbook was to them when they were in high school. Mrs. Bennett and her mass media classes from last year collected newspa- pers for recycling. The Kiwanis started the paper drive to raise funds and it has been on going ever since. The other Fund raiser the Kiwanis sponsored was a shop- ping spree. They sold tickets for chances at a $200 shopping spree. On behalf of the yearbook staff and the entire student body I would like to thank the Dixon Gold- en K” for sponsoring this year’s Dixon- ian. Andrea Fox Editor. Yearbook Editor Andrea Fox presents a ’Certificate of Gratitude” to the representatives of the Golden K Kiwanis Club.

The World To Dixon High School Rossana Catapang Rossana Catapang came to the United States to learn about the culture and to improve her English. Rossana was a Ro- tary Exchange student from Manila in the Philippines. Manila is the Philippines capi- tal and largest city. There are some similarities and differ- ences that Rossana noticed. The clothes styles in America are quite similiar to those worn in the Philippines. Teenagers in the Philippines like the same music as American teenagers do. Rossana noted. Duran Duran was one of Rossana’s favor- ite groups. The school system was the biggest difference Rossana noticed. In the Philippines grades 1-5 are equivalent to elementry school in the United States. Grades 7-10 are equivalent to High School in the United States. After completing grade 10. the student may enter college by passing an entrance exam. Rossana was the youngest child in her family. Her father was an optamologist and her mother was an optamitrist. Ros- sana had two brothers: Rodgie age 20 and Rellie who was 19. She also had four sis- ters: Candie who was 27, Thet who was 26 and married. Cecil who was 24 and Nonnie who was 23. Rossana liked American food. Steak, french fries, and hamburgers headed the list of favorites. What did she like least? Tomatoes. Rossana was staying with Dr. and Mrs. Robert LeSage. She found Dixon much like her home town even though Dixon was much colder. She found the people in Dix- on very helpful and friendly. She had an enjoyable stay in Dixon and had a lot of happy memories to take home with her. Dorothe’ Van Ouyen Dorothe Van Ouyen was staying with Mr. and Mrs. Al Tieken. Mr. Tieken was a teacher at Dixon High School. Dorthe’ was from Broekhuizen. Holland where she lived with her mother and father and 17 year old sister. Debbie. Her father owned a chicken farm, but her mother was the boss' . Dorothe’ liked sports. She particularly liked water polo when she was in Holland. She also liked to bicycle, noting that ev- eryone in Holland likes to cycle. Music in Holland was similiar to that in the United States. Duran Duran. Culture Club, and the Eurythmics were popular. When comparing Dixon to Broekhuizen Dorothe’ noticed many differences. One was the language. In Holland they speak Dutch and learn English in school. Dixon was much larger than Broekhuizen. but was also dirtier. Dixon had no disco which was something almost always found in towns in Aurope. Dixon had a theater which Broekhuizen did not. Dor- othe’ noted that the legal drinking age in Holland was 16. Kids in Holland do not go out and drink to get drunk like kids in America do. Dorothe’ said. Dorothe’s Favorite foods were choco- late and pizza. Give her anything choco- late and she would eat it. Dorothe’s schedule this year was as follows: Foods. Clothing. Spanish. History. Drivers Education. Physical Education, and Robed Choir. Second semester Foods and Clothing were replaced with Psychol- ogy and Speech. The year was an enjoyable for Dorothe’ and many good times will be remem- bered. QS£°o
