Signs of the times Bottom right: Doing their part, students like Keith Kleck distributed levy signs for supporters to place in their yards. The ef- fort was successful; the levy passed the first try.

Scun -ibe Pun[ Although posters on our walls might have made it seem we lived in our own little world, Evergreen was aware of outside events. Closest to home was the need to pass a millage which was done, but then we learned our superinten- dent had been offered another job. School pride was inspired by the sign parent boosters purchased for Route 20. With Presidental elections close, candidates were busy. The first victim of the press was Gary Hart; accused of having an affair, he dropped from the race. Mean- while, the nation celebrated the 200th birthday of the Constitution and President Reagan released his recommendation for mandatory A.I.D.S. testing. In international affairs, Oliver North was tried for illegally selling arms to Iran and funding Contra rebels in Nicaragua. The nation mourned victims of the unex- pected missiling of U.S.S. Stark, by an Iranian fighter plane ... Almost ready to go into the ‘real’ world, students found that news affected their lives more than they used to think. 12 Current Events Christina Finney

When the going gets rough Throughout each year, there were a few students who became afflicted with injuries. It was not unusual to see someone maneuvering halls in an unconfortable cast and relying on the use of crutches or a sling. Wraps, pat- ches and band-aids were frequently seen. Sports also had disabled. Some players used wraps for ailments such as shin splints, or knee braces to pro- tect a sensitive joint. Ice, to stop swelling of a twist, sprain or bloody nose, was a necessary first-aid item. Conditioning, and managers or trainers to care for potential weak joints, muscles and tendons helped prevent many injuries. The only advantages from having an injury, such as leaving class early, staying home, sympathetic attention from members of the opposite sex, or getting out of assignments, were soon out-weighed by the bothersome in- convenience of “being different” for a while. Top: Attempting to get sym- pathy from Shauna Rade, Eric Robertson complains about incoveniences such as not be- ing able to drive. Center Wrapped carefully to support shin splints, Terri Bemheisal practices hurdles. Bottom: Though his vision is impared, Johnathan Wilkes looks up a word in Mrs. VanGorder’s Word Book II.
