ax X 'ltr Each and every person goes through many impressions in one high school year.The yearbook staff's job is to capture and compile these impressions into one book. The staff began the 1983-84 year by selling yearbooks at the always successful yearbook dance. Then soon after that the hard work began,going out talking to business- men, and selling ads to provide for another top quality yearbook. Hard work and dedication managed to keep the staff busy covering plays,sports events, daances and other social activities. Much time was spent getting spreads done to meet the ever present deadlines. Last year the staff also had the pleasure of working with a comput- er once again. Most of the class learned how to type and send their own information on the computer. The yearbook was produced under the careful supervision of advisor Nancy Hainsey, Editor Georgiann Tarachas and Assistant Editor Dave Taylor. Business Manager was once again Michele Cinque and her Assistants wereBridget Markusic and Kelley Ureche.Photographers this year were Iason Turner, Ned johnson, Iohn Doyle, and Scott Leesch.

I TER ATIO AL IMPRESSIO S Eivery year MacArthur receives students from foreign countries who are housed by area families. This year on our exchange program we have five: Michael Weigel and Manfred Isigkeit both from W. Germany: Carsten Nielsen from Denmark, Motoki Nakayama from japan and Anna Marie Ordonez from the Philippines. These stu- dents come to MacArthur on two different programs, Youth For Understanding IYFUJ or Rotary. Both Anna Marie, or Mia as she likes to be called, and Motoki are here with Rotary and the remaining are on the YFU program. The Ro- tary program is different in that during the stay here the student changes families three times, where as with the YFU program the student remains with one family throughout their visit. Mia enjoys the change in families she says because this way she is able to see different lifestyles instead of ob- serving only one family. All of the exchange students agreed that they enjoy both MacAr- thur and the U.S. Michael Weigel, who played soccer for MacArthur, and also skis, said, I like the op- portunity. I learned things that I wouldn't have been able to, and he encourages everyone to visit oth- er countries. He says of MacArthur, Sports are taken so seriously and Manfred Isigkeit, Carsten Nielsen, Mia Ordonez, Michael Weigel. 14f Foreign Exchange there's a lot of competition, but he likes that we are able to choose our own clases. He says of Saginaw, I thought it would be more busy. All of the stores are closed on holi- days. Mia Ordonez 'says she liked the snow which she had never seen before. She also says she has ac- quired good friends which she will miss when she leaves along with junk food and the cool weather. Mia agrees along with the rest that MacArthur is a good school. Manfred Isigkeit says, I like be- ing away from home and I enjoy it here. What does he enjoy? Watch- ing the pom-pon girls and cheerleaders and he also enjoys computer class. However, Manfred also says that he misses his family and his school activities. Carsten Nielsen, a DM soccer player says our language is what at- tracted him to the U.S. He likes our school and its activities and says the school and the people are basically the same as in Denmark. When he leaves, Carsten says he'll miss all the U.S. cars. Motoki Nakayama says the thing he enjoys most at MacArthur was being on the Cross Country Team Manfred Isigkeit and Michael Weigel he also enjoys eating tacos here and says American girls are cute Motoki, like the others say I'll miss my friends at MacArthur.
