Pride in yourselves means pride in your school, claimed sophomore Paul Brown. School spirit was a big factor at Grant during the school year, from the sports events to homecoming week to the pep assemblies to graduation. This is not to say that our spirit cannot be improved. Varsity rally members complained that other schools show more intensified unity at sporting events. At pep assemblies the school spirit is at its peak. Freshman Chris Parker agreed, saying, We should control our spirit and be more unified. With the most diverse population of any other school in the PIL, Grant has always provided opportunities for all kinds of people to get involved and participate. Freshman Marka Erickson thought that Grant is a lot less cliquey than most other schools. It's easy to make friends here.” From chess to football, Grant offers opportunities for everyone to get involved. Lunch is a break from classes and a chance to refuel the overworked student body. But it is also an excellent opportunity to spend time with friends. From Burger King to Little King, from Kienow's to AM PM, Granto-nians find all kinds of ways to put the school's open campus lunch to use. I love the freedom that open campus gives you, said sophomore Brett Walton. Grant’s cafeteria, home of the Mega-chip, still draws crowds, though. The majority of students, especially the underclassmen without cars, stay in the cafeteria, where more people are available for socializing, and the food is priced to accomodate a student’s income. 2 Introduction The Grant band drums up spirit at a pep assembly.

Homework naturally occupies many hours of the average student's free time, but most teenagers also find time to participate in other activities. Sports were very popular, both organized school teams and also recreational weekend sports like tennis or skiing. Grant’s athletic program was also a source of entertainment for the more sedentary, since the Friday night football games always brought crowds of Grantonians. “I like sports for both the physical and the social activity, said junior Bret Wonderlick. Not all activities were so school-oriented, however. Freshman Robert Bernard was vice-chairman of the Metropolitan Youth Commission, an organization dedicated to youth involvement in community decision-making. It has given me responsibility and the opportunity to work in the community with various people, he claimed. Grantonians also spend weekends at part-time jobs or helping out around the house. But by far the most popular way for Grantonians to spend their free time was by relaxing with friends. Shopping downtown or at Lloyd Center was the way many students spent their Saturdays, while dance clubs such as Skoochie's were also very popular. Sophomore Shea Houghland summed up the attitude of many of her fellow students: ! go out with my friends and have a blast! 4 Introduction Finnegan s Toy Store provides an excellent place to relive childhood, as Anna Criteser and Denise Tester find out.

Ms. Yabuki assists Laura Dohman with a challenging math problem. Motivated by academics For the sophomores and freshmen, the academic standards were toughened. An extra year of both math and science was required for the classes of ’88 and ’87 to graduate. Some of the underclassmen felt cheated by the new requirements, like sophomre Kay Kay Waller, who complained. Why should we have extra science and math when the upperclassmen don’t? For the college-bound student, however, these courses were already necessary, and students who were desparate for electives added zero and eighth period classes. How much fun is homework? It’s probably not the highlight of the week, no matter how serious a student is. Yet students keep studying, working for that elusive A . Grades are my life! When I do poorly, my self-esteem suffers,” explained senior Meredith Bleakley. The honor roll may be a top priority in the eyes of parents and colleges, and grades are certainly important in determining how well a student understood a course, but they are not the only aspects of academic life. Senior Scot Zeller said that Grades aren’t that important to me. I feel that it’s the learning process that’s important and not the grades that go with it. But, of course, there’s nothing wrong with getting A s in honors classes and 100% on physics tests. Introduction 7 Celebrate Homecoming Spirit rose as Homecoming Week progressed. Some students displayed bizarreness on Tacky Day. Students strutted down the halls in their outlandish clothing and gaudy jewelry. Suzy Dennis, an active participant of Grant’s spirit week, remarked, “If there was more involvement and enthusiasm among the student body, we could have a better Homecoming Week yet!” The week consisted of various activities and events including an escort service for the homecoming dance. Seniors Mike Miller and Sean Six organized an assembly in which winners were chosen from a drawing to be escorted to the dance by one of twenty-two selected students. A pep assembly awakened the student body by arousing spirit and school pride. The Varsity Rally announced the 1985 homecoming court: freshmen Missy Palmer and John Houston, sophomores Margaret Richen and Matt Nolan, juniors Molly Rask and Ruben Nisenfeld, and seniors Hillary Colbart and Kenny Graham. The yearbook staff sponsered a pie-throwing contest which attracted students after school in the front yard of Grant. Eighteen students and teachers got creamed by ticket winners. Junior Jennifer Loney commented, I was just in Ms. Bennett’s office and I had told her I bought lots of tickets so I could get her. Then, I won. It was the most wonderful thing I ever won.” To conclude the festive week, the varsity football team trampled over the Lincoln Cardinals at the Civic Stadium with overwhelming support from the Grant section. This was followed by the homecoming dance which consisted not only of freshmen cliques, but a wide range of students. “There was just the right amount of people; I wouldn’t have liked wall to wall humanoids.!” exclaimed junior Trent Robb. The dance proved to be a complete success! Ift 8 Introduction During a fundraiser for the yearbook, adviser Ms. Demien takes a pie in the smacker.

Introduction 9 Athletes work to win Grant athletes displayed outstanding abilities as well as immense pride for our schools’s athletic program. The men’s varsity soccer team finished with a regular season record of 8-0-1 ready for the state play-offs in which they were ranked fourth. The cross country team also endured a competitive season sending sophomore Rick Messier to the state meet in Eugene. Grant’s athletic program grows stronger each year. According to our new athletic director, Willis Packham, the number of students who participated in sports made a noticable increase from past years. Fall sports teams consisted of more than 350 athletes. Packham declared, “Our students are eager and confident; they want to be involved!’’ Several students explained the reason for Grant’s success: Senior Jeff Kiddoo - “Not only do our athletes get the needed support from teammates, but also from the coaches and spectators.” Senior Lori Higgins - We take pride in our school; we want to win!” Junior Chris Frick - “It's all talent!” Junior Robert Pardington - “Our coaches are experienced and dedicated and our athletes are competitive. Now all we need is a football stadium!” Sophomore Nancy Fulton - There are so many sports to choose from, that more people want to participate. Freshman Joel Faust - Most athletes really listen to the coaches so they’re ready for competition.” Packham also emphasized the importance of grades. He was proud to say that the ratio of scholar-athletes was impressive, but he hopes to see even more improvement in the athletes academic standing. Jeff Kiddoo commented, They’ve really cracked down on attendance and grades, causing us to work harder with our teams.” 10 Introduction During a stressful volleyball game.

Senior Adriana Polo, treasurer of the International Club, helped plan events such as an international dinner and a Carribean theme party. A trilingual exchange student from Colombia, she declared herself the kind of person who would belong in the International Club.” The first annual Alumni Cross Country Meet was held this year in late September as a fundraiser. Though dominated by the alumni, who took the first four spots against Grant’s current varsity team, the meet was a positive experience for both the past and present students as well as coaches Cotton and Noble. Senior Deanna Keltner, a member of the Cross Country team, was enthusicatic about the event, explaining that it brought a lot of old Grant memories together. The alumni got to wear and keep the old cotton jerseys they wore in high school.” Coach Cotton agreed, since “there was a lot of nostalgia involved. I’ve been here for 24 years and some of the fellows were here the first year I coached. Next year a woman’s race is planned.

Actors inspire students Four members of the Oregon Shakespearean Festival in Ashland entertained Grant's student body, exhibiting their exceptional talent. They presented performances throughout the week of October 20-25 for all English and drama classes. These presentations focused on Shakespeare and American Literature. The members acted out scenes from a variety of Shakespearean plays including “As You Like It, “Macbeth, “Romeo and Juliet, and Tempest.” Drama student Sean Six proclaimed, They were incredible! Watching them helped upgrade my abilities as an actor. Rick Barbour was among the four members visiting Grant. He has acted in a number of plays for different companies and enjoys working on school tours. Since I came to Ashland, I work with great people every day doing fun plays and taking on new adventures, Barbour expressed. Michael J. Endy also performed at Grant on his first tour with Ashland. Endy showed diversity in each presentation captivating the audience. Actress Terri McMahon displayed her talent in many plays throughout the week at Grant. She possessed the ability to lure the audience’s attention toward her. Actress Ursula Meyer participated in several acting companies before coming to Ashland. “I have been actively teaching, touring, and doing Shakespeare for the last seven years, announced Meyer. Introduction 15 Show your real face What is a face? A face consists of many extraordinary features often expressing ones innermost feelings or wildest imaginings. For instance, eyes can reveal ir-resistable temptations whether they are beautiful brown, glamorous green, dazzling hazel, or those sexy blues! Expressions are also major attractions to one s face. Depending on the mood of a person, one may look extremely cheerful, utterly bewildered, or downright angry. From listening to a variety of Grant guys and gals, many opinions of attractive and interesting expressions were formed. GALS A smile is the expression that makes a face beautiful; it lights up a person’s whole face,” replied sophomore Leita Zupan. Beautiful faces show positive expressions, like Mr. Masaitis says: Some faces look like they’re smiling even when they aren't’,” declared senior Kathryn Stewart. Faces are ugly when people have their mouths hanging open a little bit and you can see their tongue just sitting there!” announced freshman Liz Larson. GUYS “An alive-looking face is attractive, especially in the eyes,” expressed senior Scott Miles. A face is ugly when one is really ticked off!” exclaimed freshman Andy Henley. Faces that show boredom are also ugly,” added freshman Ralph Shuping. Then there is junior Dan Nissila who chose to write an essay on the nose: The nose, for a few reasons, is very important in making a face interesting or attractive. First of all, unlike other parts of the face, the nose rarely changes; the mouth, eyes, and even the cheeks change according to the mood of the person who owns them, but the nose has a much more permanent look. Secondly, it is the focal point and often one of the most noticed parts of the whole face. Finally, what other feature of the face sets the shape of one’s side profile like the nose does? Not one.

Scot Zeller, as Sky Masterson. urges Sarah Brown to let her emotions show. Romantic musical opens season Grant’s drama season opened in November with Guys and Dolls, a romantic musical set in New York City during the gangster era. Directed by Barbara Hollcraft, the play mixed a complex story line that included two romantic couples and lots of up-beat songs. The audience at all six performances couldn’t help but be entertained. After seeing the production, senior Justine Light remarked. “I was thoroughly impressed with the superacting abilities of all of the leads. They were super fantastic.” To take advantage of the wide range of acting talent available, all the leading roles in Guys and Dolls were double-cast. Several seniors had a chance to increase their stage experience. Sean Six, who shared the role of Sky Masterson with Scot Zeller, stated, ‘‘It gave me more self-confidence when it comes to musical theater.” When asked what she gained from playing the part of Adelaide, Rebecca Kimball said, ‘‘I was constantly learning new things about my character up to the very minute of the performance and even after that; characterization is a never-ending process.” Weeks of rehearsal, starting in late September and continuing after Guys and Dolls opened, gave the cast plenty of time to memorize lines, practice tunes and learn the tricky dance sequences choreographed by Bruce McDonald. Joslin Larson explained the schedule: “We rehearsed every week night. That can seem tough, but it really pays off.” Quinn Black, a drama rookie, agreed with Joslin saying, “The best part for me was watching the play come together and look better every time.” After seeing a Friday night performance, senior Jennie MacDonald remarked, “I thought the New York accents were well done. They made the play more believable. Obviously they spent a lot of time and effort on the entire production.” 18 Musical Drama achieves state honors One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest played from January 29 through Feburary 1. It required over 45 people to produce and included some of Grant’s most prestigous actors. “We had great, spectacular actors for this production,” said the assistant director, Liz Morris. With Tim True as Randle McMurphy, a man who sees a stretch in the asylym as a good way to get out of his jail sentence, McMurphy’s dominating personality quickly set him apart from the other patients. McMurphy struggled to win the other patient’s trust and admiration, but they were reluctant because of their fear of Nurse Ratched, played by Cindy Ganley. The patients had lost hope in themselves, and McMurphy tried to restore their hopes. “McMurphy had hope in them and we all need hope,” stated Barbara Hollcraft the director of the play. “It took a lot of mental preparation to play Chief Bromden”, Jason Hogue, “I spent a good deal of time sitting alone backstage to prepare for the part”. The development of the character was astonishing to watch. Scenes of Bromden revealing his inner thoughts to the audience were emotional for the cast and the audience. Each participant put their utmost into this production. Ms. Hollcraft said of the play, “I’ve always wanted to do Cuckoo’s Nest, and when some of my students said that they too wanted to put on the play, I told them it would be okay.” All the actors did a superb job on this play including performances by Scott Zeller, Doug Petrina, and David Erickson. In evidence of the ensemble’s fine work, the production was selected as one of two to perform at the State Thespian Contest. As Randel McMurphy Tim True shows his fellow inmates.

He commented. “I had top-notch actresses for this performance that shows the changes in the lives of three women from 1964 to 1974.” The play was double-cast with one performance showcasing seniors and the other, juniors. The seniors were Becca Kimball, Tiffany Davidson and Joslin Larson. The junior cast was Becky Roberts, Cathy Konsella and Jeni Loney. Because the cast was so small the performers received extra attention from the director and they had the experience of becoming very close friends. Senior, Joslin Larson, commented, “the two casts didn’t really see each other, but we learned from each other’s performances.” The actresses practiced at least two or three hours a day and spent their free time looking for costumes and props. Senior Tiffany Davidson remarked, “although we spent a lot of time, it was worth it in the end.” The cast put on their make-up and fixed their hair on stage in order to emphasize their terrible vainness. Becca Kimball explained, “the idea of the play was to really portray the characters vanity and the resulting emptiness in their lives.” They created an image of each of them sitting in their own rooms at their dressing tables. Jennie Loney explained, “we tried to expand our characters by role playing and analizing the background of the script.” Performing in L-l was a little frightening to the performers because they were so close to the audience but everyone who went t o see the play thought it was an excellent set up.

Having two plays in production cut down on the size of the audience, but it provided more opportunities for acting experience. In attempting this schedule. Grant’s drama department was unique in Portland, since no other school has attempted a simultaneous, double production. Because the play had a small cast, lead parts were given to two performers who alternated. The big advantage to a small cast was that it provided an intimate atmosphere so the cast members were able to get to know each other well and have a lot of fun. As director Bruce MacDonald described, “The cast and I laughed and giggled during rehearsals, but did they ever love those romantic kissing scenes.” The audiences that came to see Rainmaker were small, but the uncrowded auditorium did provide some advantages. The actors were able to get to know the audience and relate directly to them and even pick out the voices of people they knew. The cast agreed that enthusiastic audience response brought out better performances form the group. One member of the audience commented, “it was great to be able to sit anywhere I wanted and it was easy to hear the performers .” Many of the performers in Rainmaker-made their acting debut at Grant or played their first major role. AJ Bannon felt that his first major role challenged him in unexpected ways. “The hardest things to learn was to project my voice out to the audience and to make the fight scenes authentic. Jennifer VanDever helped the cast with techniques that would make the fighting seem real.” Johnny Useldinger, a freshman, was acting for the first time at Grant in a large role. Ethan Kramer who played the part of the Rainmaker commented, “I think it is great that Johnny was cast. He deserved the part and he did a great job!” 24 Drama Playing Starbuck, an enterprising con man with a smooth tongue. Ethan Kramer calls upon the heavens to bring an end to the drought.

Rebecca Kimball dramatizes “Rose's Turn in the closing number of the show As Uncle Jocko. Tim Miller faces severe criticism from Rose after her children. June and Louise, lose a talent contest. Glitzy extravaganza spares no expense The spring musical Gypsy, directed and choreographed by Bruce MacDonald was one of the biggest, most expensive, and one of the best productions the Grant drama department has ever produced. The musical, based on the biography of Gypsy Rose Lee portrayed the influence of a strong stage mother. Mama Rose, on her daughter Louise. The opening scenes, set during the declining Vaudeville era, featured Wendy Buel and Jeni Loney as the child stars. Baby June and Louise. Hauled around the country by their ambitious mother, portrayed in a showstopping performance by Rebecca Kimball, the girls tap-danced and sang countless versions of the familiar. “Let Me Entertain You.” When asked about her powerful performance as Mama Rose, Kimbell quipped, “It’s a good play, a good musical and the pan was made for me,” After hiring some extras, Mama and her daughters travel to New York, and with a little help from their new manager Herbie, played by Ethan Kramer, the new act is booked in a theater. About his role in the production Kramer stated, “1 wanted to get involved, but when I found out I got a lead, I was surprised.” The years pass and June and Louise grow up. To show this during one of the show’s more spectacular dance numbers, flashing chaser lights and a strobe created a time-stopping effect while Maggie Barton and Shelly Stevens took their places as a mature June and Louise. The struggle of Mama Rose and her docile daughters spans the girls’ adolescence but it brings no rewards of stardom. Their travels did feature several dynamic dance sequences and jazzy songs, however. A cast and crew of over a hundred students hoofed their way through scenes that included a moving train and a tap-dancing cow. Karen Dixon commented about her role as one of the dancing newsboys, “I wanted to be in a big production because there are more choices in parts for underclassmen.” Through it all Louise, played by Shelley Stevens longed for a normal life. In her poignant solo, “Little Lamb,” in which she yearns fcr a real pet and a place to keep it, Stevens won the hearts of the audience. In the course of their travels, June, played by Barton, elopes with Tulsa who was played by Tom Jones. Soon Mama Rose and Louise found themselves without an act. They receive some show business advice from strippers, played by Valerie Menely, Wendy Shelton and Daniella Duvall in an eyepopping, hip-swiveling rendition of “You Got To Have A Gimmick.” It is at this point that Louise decides she can make it in show business without her mother’s help, singing a revolutionized version of the show’s signature song, “Let Me Entertain You.” 2t As Dainty June.

Musical 27 Reluctantly, Mama permits the newly named Gypsy to develop her own career, but she also decides she will become a star of her own show. The character of Mama closed the production with “Everything’s Coming Up Roses,” a tune Kimball makes her own in a finale that brought the audience to their feet for a standing ovation and several curtain calls. The set, built by Rogue Conn was one of the most elaborate sets Grant has ever seen, and not only was it used for Gypsy, but it was also used for Rose Festival. The set consisted of a runway platform with hundreds of hand-wired chaser lights, which extended from either end of the stage in a semi-circle around the orchestra pit, out into the seats. There was also an overhead arch which incorporated florid roses and more chaser lights. The stage itself featured a crimson curtain of thousands of light-catching mylar strips, making the Gypsy set one of the “glitziest” in Grant’s history.

Stephanie Henley, Joslin Larson. Shelley Stevens, and Kristin Taylor were the candidates selected for the Rose Festival court after nerve-racking in terviews with the judges. These choices resulted from careful decisions based on poise, appearance, and speaking ability. Candidate Taylor explained. “After being chosen, we acted as a whole; we weren’t really individuals. The show, written, directed, and choreographed by Bruce McDonald, began on the exciting morning of April 9th. “It was a magnificant performance. remarked Henley. Rehearsals had been held after school and during the evenings in which the candidates, dancers, and singers practiced their steps on stage and down the lighted runway. The first assembly opened with a twenty-minute Broadway Medley featuring thirty-six songs and more than fifty performers including our illustrious and talented prin cipal. Gene Douthit who sang. “Hello Dolly.” Quinn Black and A Jay Ban non star red as Mistress and Master of Ceremonies, while comedians John Detweiler and teacher Kris Demien portrayed famous screen couples for some bizarre entertainment.

Well, maybe the Prom didn’t last until three, but one can be sure that the Senior Prom was a roadmark event in the lives of many Grantonians. And then again, for some it wasn’t. “It was quite a memorable night, from what I remember, remarked Prom-goer, Elizabeth Morris, who attracted attention by dancing about the stage with band members and friend Bridget Smith. Morris also commented on the significance of the Senior Prom, “It was a great way to end my senior year; with special friends, special dances, special photographers. . A local band. The Cool Rays, played 50’s and 60’s cover songs, which for some people, was the perfect choice. “The music was great because I could sing to it, and my date was great because she danced with me,” jested David Deckard. A myriad of delicacies were available for those present, complete with an ice-sculpure centerpiece. Those in attendance could feast upon one of several cakes, hors d’ouerves running the gamut of the appetizer realm, chicken croquettes and punch in champagne glasses. Just imagine sampling succulent specialties while watching classmate Christine Zinter do the Twist or catching the bunny-hop line snaking its way through the Lloyd Center Red Lion’s ballroom. Ted Snyder interjected “the second set was great, especially ’Louie, Louie’ which I requested; the food was really great too.” Deckard later reminisced, “Everything was beautiful, especially me. In fact, the only thing better looking than me was my date.” The Prom, though troubled by low funds, had all of the comforts of, uh, well, of a Senior Prom. As junior Becky Roberts revealed, “Over all, an adequate evening. My escort was very handsome.” For some, it was a finale, for others it was a beginning to ’Prom Weekend’ which for most meant a romantic sojourn to the beach, either to stay in a hotel, a motel or “mom and dad’s beach house.” All in all, as Jennifer Vandever pointed out, “It was a moment to cherish.” Prom 33 Receiving her diploma from Principal.

For now we are free from the bonds that restrained us!” and “Aghast! I am now without a buffer zone between me and SOCIETY!” Both are very different feelings, but nevertheless very real feelings. As the feet of well over 300 seniors trod down the aisles of the Civic Auditorium, one could not help but feel that somehow, this was a significant day, as Grant offered up its diverse crop to the educational harvest. Commencement took place on May 31, but informal and formal celebrations occurred throughout the last few days of school. For many seniors their high school achievements reached a peak at the awards program two nights earlier. Presidential academic fitness awards were given to more than 30 graduates, and several individuals were awarded commendations for their acheivements in specialized areas such as mathematics, science and the performing arts. Senior Awards Night honored those who excelled, but it left two awards unannounced; the Fletchner Memorial Scholarships, and the Kevin MacMillan Award. These honors, the highest Grant gives its graduating seniors are announced at the commencement ceremony itself. After the graduates received their diplomas, the tension mounted, and finally, the announcement came. Stan Roberts, who had just been flown in from the state track finals, received the Kevin MacMillan Award. No sooner had Stan left the stage, than he was called back up, for he, along with classmate Annie Gee had won the Fletchner Award. Later, Annie expressed her feelings about winning, “It was such a shock. I had my camera all ready to take a picture of who ever got it. It means a lot to me.” As commencement drew to an end and the hugs and kisses were passed out, the seniors went their separate ways. Some had plans for college, some for the business world and some intended to enter military service. Perhaps, they will never see some of their fondest acquaintances ever again. Maybe they’ll never see that guy or that girl that they were sure that they loved sophomore year or that person that they used to pass notes to during Algebra class, but they will always have the memory and the pride of having been a part of the Grant class of 1986. They’ve found that it’s time for moving on and that, as Rebecca Kimball expressed, “It’s a new, big step. No...a humongous step.” Retiring teacher, Ruth Alcorn, gives one of her graduating students a congratulatory hug backstage at the Civic Auditorium. Recipients of the Fletchner Award.

Graduation 35 Falling in love Ah, romance. Can you feel it in the air? Has spring fever hit? For many students, romance, or whatever you prefer to call it, was the most important part of school life. The school atmosphere, which throws teenagers of opposite genders at each other, unsurprisingly created many school romances. One student, sophomore Anne Stephenson, told of her school romance experience. ‘‘I was in kindergarten and this boy named Adam asked me to marry him. He gave me his treasured plastic ring with Spider Man on it and I wore it proudly around school for a week, until he asked for it back.” Everyone has their own ways of expressing their tender feelings. Senior Jason Palmer imagined the perfect romantic experience as “being snowed in on Mount Hood in a ski cabin all weekend with a nice young lady. Freshman Dan Schulz dreams of meeeting someone who on top of things and is active in things like drama, sports, and academics.” No matter what their daydreams consisted of, many students found it difficult to hook up with their ideal date, and depended on the excuse of Valentine’s Day to show their true feelings. Groups around school realized the power of love, and were quick to capitalize on the smitten students on Valentine’s Day. Many teens still found it difficult to find their dream date, and depended on Valentine’s Day to give an excuse to show their emotions. Freshman Jennifer Harder enthused, “I think Valentine’s Day is great. Some people need the excuse to tell someone how they feel and be less embarrassed about since that’s the day to say it. Not everyone felt so excited about the holiday, however. Sophomore Tom Cook described it as “sentimental slop.” To give students a chance to find their perfect match, the senior class organized a computer compatability service matching students with the girls or guys who gave similar answers to a questionnaire. Many students, all bubbling with hormones, were initially enthusiastic about the idea, but many were dissapointed when the results were finally handed out. “It was a good idea, but I don’t think anyone took it seriously. Lots of people lied on the questionnaire, explained junior Dan Sweet. Senior Victoria Robinson described a hypothetical computer dating process: “Boy unit meets girl unit. Girl unit meets boy unit. Both units exchange data. If no system error then process data.” Another fund-raiser that exploited the sentiment of Grant students was the sale of carnations by the varsity rally. White carnations signified “just friends,” pink were for a “budding romance,” and red meant true love.” Carnations were very popular among the students, especially those who received mutiple flowers. Some, however, were not so fortunate. Junior Jennifer Ferguson was less than enthusiastic about the sale of carnations. I was sad because no one sent me one,” she sighed. 36 Feature Enjoying the benefits of springtime romance, sophomores Randy Bourquein and Shea Hougland share a kiss.

Perched atop his scooter, junior John Grunkemeier poses with another scooter enthusiast. 52 Feature A wide grin on his face, junior Billy White pedals down one of Grant's pathways. Getting there Getting to school was probably not the best part of any student's day. For most, however, it was a necessary evil. Some could either drive themselves or get a ride from parents or friends. That usually depended, however, on how far away one lived, how old one was, and how much one could afford to pay for transportation. Getting a ride can be very important, especially with Portland's weather to consider. Sophomore Leslie Sitton, whose parents drive him to school, said “I like the way I get to school because when it’s raining out I can stay dry.” Driving to school has other advantages for students who are not advocates of early morning exercise. “The key word in my life is LAZINESS. I would kill for a ride to school,” admitted senior Britta Erickson. Junior Susie Minami has a more valid excuse for wanting transportation to school: “getting a ride is important because I have to take my clarinet and or tenor sax home every weekend,” she explained. Another lazy senior, Jon Blumenauer, said that to him, a ride is “fairly important, in that if I don’t get a ride, I will have to walk.” Sophomore Josh Kreinberg added that being driven to school means a lot to my first period teacher, because if I don’t get a ride I’m late to class.” Those who were resigned to not having the comfort and convenience of a ride found many other kinds of transportation. By far the most common was walking, especially for those students who lived within a mile or two of the school. The weather did present a problem, however. “When it rains or is really windy, it messes up my day because I have to walk,” complained junior Becky Scott. Freshman Josh Reagan had a positive attitude about the way he got to school: “I like riding my bike and it’s nice to get a little exercise in the morning along with some fresh air.” Freshman Abil Kante viewed his daily bus rides to school realistically, saying that “I do not like running to catch the bus, being passed by full buses, waiting for the bus, and especially waiting in the cold, wind, and rain. But I do like catching the bus instead of walking! Feature 53 Tough losses provide experience Bringing his seven years of coaching experience to Grant, Coach Bob Doltar began his first year as head of the Generals’ football program. Doltar has coached one year at Clackamas Community College, six years at Lebanon High School, and one year at Parkrose High School. Did Coach Doltar make those Generals work hard? Definitely! Every day, after school the football team had a rigorous practice which lasted about two and a half hours. Grant, according to statististics, didn’t perform beyond the average; but looking farther than numbers on a piece of paper, Grant showed much skill. One of Grant’s receivers, senior Aaron Fentress, stood out among others in the PIL. He outmaneuvered the tough Benson defense to catch two touchdown passes. The sophomore quarterback, Scott Allen, who played impressively against Lincoln by throwing three touchdown passes including one for 51 yards, helped win that game for Grant. Herman Harden, who also played well in the Lincoln game, commented, “Our running game is good, but it’s not the only thing we have. I feel we have the best talent at skill positions in the PIL.” Several of the football players made the All-City listings, which was quite an accomplishment. Senior Oliver Dines made the first team for the defensive and offensive line. Other players who also made first team were senior Aaron Fentress, and Kevin Newborn, punter. Grant also had two players that made the second team and five honorable mentions. Senior Marc Brandeberry, when asked what he learned during the season, replied, “I learned that when we start losing, our fans don’t come, but when we win, they do. I feel it doesn’t matter whether we are a winning or losing team. The student body should support us because it reflects on the whole school.” There is much truth in that statement, since any athlete could tell you that support from the fans makes the game a whole lot easier. One of Grant’s best games was against the Lincoln Cardinals. The Generals beat the Cards 55-23. It was a super game that showed just what the G-men were made of. The reason they won, was as Coach Doltar stated, “The offense finally clicked.” The Generals’ best game, against Benson, surpassed any performance by Grant that season. They held the Techmen until the last quarter when a few questionable calls were made. Nevertheless, the varsity guys scored a remarkable 15 points against Benson, a team ranked in state competition. With skill and concentration, Marc Brandeberry puts the football through the field goal for an extra point while Brad Reeves and Joe McFerrin look on. While the pressure’s on, the Grant ofTense tries to penetrate the defense for a first down. 1985 VARSITY FOOTBALL Grant 14 Marshall 7 Grant 0 Jefferson 14 Grant 6 Madison 13 Grant 2 Franklin 12 Grant 15 Benson 56 Grant 7 Wilson 14 Grant 55 Lincoln 23 Grant 14 Cleveland 12 Grant 15 Roosevelt 6 WE’VE GOT SPIRIT!

As wide receiver, Sean Gleason, stated, “My satisfaction comes when I make a good stick.” Coach Conway felt that the players were “a great bunch of kids, and everybody played the season well.” Darrin Pitchford said, “Our most difficult game was our first, against Madison, but we kept fighting till the very last.” Darrin also felt that the games would be much easier to win if there was a better turn out at the games. Most of the players felt the same way. “We aren’t out there playing for ourselves; we’re playing for Grant,” remarked Mathew English Most of the players, and the coach, all felt that the toughest game was against Wilson. The loss to Wilson was due to the fact that they were a bigger, more aggressive team as a whole. Sean Gleason felt that his toughest game as an individual player was also the game against Wilson because he “really wanted to beat those snobs.” The freshman football team had to tackle their toughest opponents, themselves. They had to learn that high school football is a demanding, and challenging sport, and that with each game they are upholding the Grant tradition for outstanding football teams. Coach Rob Kennewell felt, “Hard work and determination make a winning team. ” Ronald Woods stated, “Mr. Kennewell worked us hard, but that just made us a stronger team.” That seemed to be the general concensus from most of the team, that the extensive training by Coach Kennewell was tough but well worth it.

Most of the players felt they played well and some felt they could have done better. Monica Keitges and Andrea Southard stated, “We liked competing with other teams as well as challenging ourselves.’’ Tracy Peterson added, “I could have played better if I had been more dedicated.” Grant started out their season with a loss against Franklin but came back with a win against Cleveland. Most of the teams they played were very tough, especially Marshall who ranked 2nd in state. “We made them work hard for their win,” exclaimed team members. Some of their games throughout the season were extremely close, but they just couldn’t clinch them to win. “The three volleyball teams got along really well and were very supportive of each other,” remarked Lynn Cooper. The team practiced every day for two hours, working hard for their upcoming games. They regularly had a good workout, playing two games a week as well as three Saturday tournaments. Team members K.K. Waller and Tasha Hardin agreed, “Dedication and hard work are the only ways to become a good volleyball player.” Many of the players felt they played pretty well during the whole season but things didn’t go their way. Coach Michelle Kisinger has coached and played volleyball for several years. She enjoys working with people and making them better in the sport. “We showed enough potential to beat any team in the PIL, but we didn’t pull together until the end of the season,” exclaimed Coach Kisinger.

Girls finish impressive season The freshmen women’s volleyball team had a good time, but not a great season. Of course, for having only one player on the team with any previous experience, they did pretty well. Brenda Skinner, the coach of frosh volleyball and former basketball and head softball coach, stressed that the middle schools’ athletic budgets were slashed the year before, so it gets harder and harder to find ninth grade volleyball players. The only person on the team with any previous team experience, Jennae Amundson, was voted the most valuable player of the squad. Jenny Lupton explained this by stating, “She’sjust the BEST!” Amundson enjoyed the season, despite a disappointing win loss record. She said, “I will be playingjunior varsity next year because I like the sport, and it’s fun!”. She added that the team worked well together, cheering each other up, and helping each other in tense situations. Suzie Miller was cited as the main example of this; she was named the most inspirational player on the team. Miller could usually make people on the team happy, even after a losing effort. The one team singled out as “toughest opponent” by most players was Benson. Mary Moody said this was a result of Benson’s experience confronting Grant’s inexperience. This resulted in “Benson stomping us”, Julie Lupton explained, “but we sure tried hard!” Coach Nancy Olson, who has been playing volleyball since high school and is still playing competitive volleyball at Portland Tech for the United States Volleyball Association, teaches ourj. V. team how to play great volleyball. Assistant coach to the team is Brenda Skinner who supervises the team also. Outstanding volleyball has been played at Grant due mainly to the students who are willing to learn from these people. The team started out with impressive wins during the first half of the season and ended with a record of at 9-9 in the league. TheJV women took an outstanding third place in city. All in all, this was an experience the junior varsity girls will not forget in a long time. More experience for a player makes a better a player through and through.

The Generals played together nearly all year, and the practice payed off in an 8-0-1 season record. They finished first in the PIL and were ranked fourth team in the state. 1985 was a landmark year for the team, highlighted by many achievements previously thought to be out of their reach. After thirteen years of frustration, they managed to defeat the Lincoln Cardinals on their home field, knocking them out of state contention with a score of 2-1. The win was just one in the long line of victories that contributed to their undefeated record and their acquisition of the city title. In addition to the rigorous physical Preparing for a throw in, junior Gary Gregory checks out the field. Anticipating a pass, senior Tim True runs down field during the game against Wilson. training that is vital in all athletics, the team placed strong emphasis on the mental preparation exercises which were introduced to the team by Al Bannon, father of two of the team members. Taking the concept from the book Peak Performance, Mr. Bannon and Coach Joe Nunn encouraged a positive attitude in the players and promoted a spirit of teamwork that strengthened the entire group. Three-year varsity defensive player John Far-num echoed the feelings of the whole team when he said that “the real key to winning is mental attitude...The talent and skills were there; Joe emphasized attitude in combination with the skills we had to help us become a real championship team.” The support from the fans was greatly appreciated by each member of the team. Midfielder Greg Coulter stated, “Fans definitely helped; we were a lot more motivated when we had somebody to play for.” Fred Gast agreed, saying, “Every time the crowd started to cheer it gave us the boost of adrenaline that we needed to play that much better.” Valerie Menely, an avid fan and a soccer player herself, stated, “We really appreciated the team’s effort and spirit. It made us feel like we were a part of the team and shared in all of their successes.” As contributors to the greatest soccer season in Grant’s history, the 1985 players are to be congratulated. Their hard work has made Grant a force to be reckoned with in soccer. Midfielder A-Jay Bannon said it best: “This year’s seniors started a trend that will keep Grant in state rankings for years to come.” 62 Varsity Men Soccer Senior Fred Gast concentrates on the game and is intent on the ball.

JV Men: Ball battalion Fast paced action jammed with physical conflict starring the men of Grant. Is it a movie? Is it a TV show? No, it’s the men’s JV soccer team. “Pizzuti worked us to the bone,” quoted Will Lupton. The men had a new coach; Matt Pizzuti. It was a season for learning. “We played hard and we played to win,” remarked player Charlie Feinstein. “Without Pizzuti, we would’ve been lost.” The team was a battalion of unified men determined to make the name of Grant High stick in the hearts of their defeated opponents. “This was the best team I ever played on,” attested Mike Martin. If not for their dedication and true sportsmanship, the men could not have had as strong a season as they did. The soccer field warriors, though they did not receive the attention or adulation of their varsity counterparts, had many important factors adding to their performance. The inspiration from several players, as well as shining improvement from many, brought them through the season unscathed by the onslaught of enemy teams. “We played just as well as Wilson,” noted Jason Beverage referring to the game with their toughest competitor. All of the men have high hopes for their personal futures in the world of soccer, as they did for their past season on the soccer pitch. Coach Pizzuti remarked,“I expected a good season.” While the men admitted that they hoped to reach greater heights than they did, they were proud of their playing and the abilities of their comrades. “There was a group of thinkers 64 JV Trr� hmrn Mm'� Soccrr ...and a group of quiet leaders,” testified Pizzuti. As Will Lupton cited, “The reason we did so well was because Pizzuti made us work hard.” The men’s freshman soccer team had a successful season with their new coach, Tim Gutfleisch.“ Johnny Hughes felt that their cooperartion improved a lot in the second half of their season along with their skills. He believed the improvement was due to their new coach. ”1 didn’t think we had a good team; I shouldn’t of spoken so soon. We finished out with second place tying with Wilson “ commented Johnny Hughes. The coach was thought to be ’’very inspirational, and he gave us the support we needed,“ stated midfielder Brent Richford.

JV Freshmen Men's Soccer 65 Women demand more support “Soccer has taught the girls how to be competitive and aggressive and it also has taught them the workings of a team and how teamwork really helps,” explained Coach Edtl. Almost all the team members feel that the team’s greatest asset is their ability to work together. Another outstanding quality of the team is the fact that there really weren’t any stars. “I don’t think there is any ’best player’ because we’re all really good and we all worked our best to improve,” remarked senior Lora Stephens. “All the girls contributed to the team this season and people were incredibly optimistic,” Ms. Edtl said. So optimistic, in fact, that the team voted two people most inspirational this season: junior Ingrid Moore and senior Valerie Menely. “I love soccer and have played soccer for a long time myself,” answered coach Edtl when asked why she chose to coach. Ms. Edtl has coached varsity two years, assisted varsity once and coached JV soccer once. She also coached track one year, “and only once!” she declared. “Soccer is the only game to play,” exclaimed junior Shelly Roehm, “You can be aggressive and still use some amount of skill, unlike football. Plus we get to play with the guys!” Senior Ann Riddle thoughtfully added, “When you do something well it’s fun. Everyone needs to be proud of something they do.” If you missed our women’s varsity soccer team in 1985, don’t worry! “Although this has been our best season ever, next year we’ll go to state!” Shelly Roehm asserted optimistically. But remember, “We women deserve more support,” demanded Denise Tester. Regardless of whether or not our women’s varsity soccer team had an audience, they still managed to kick, steal, and slide tackle their way into a solid third place standing in the PIL, having scored 27 goals-17 in the PIL, and having only 11 goals scored against them. This is quite impressive compared to their 8 goal total of last season. “We’ve improved in standing every year and we’re fighting really rough teams.” Fighting for possession, Shelly Roehm races after WOMEN’S VARSITY SOCCER front row: the ball as Rachael Jezierski waits expectantly.

Varsity Woman’s Soccer 67 JV fights ‘Civil There were too many players for one team, so it was decided to split the JV women into two teams: one blue, and one grey. This was simply because there were so many good players. The Blue and Grey J.V. women’s soccer teams learned to work together and use the skills they acquired during the season. The attitude of the two teams was very positive and their goals were achieved. According to Jennifer Folliard, “We reached most of our goals; we may not have come in first place, but I’m glad we didn’t come in last.” Jamie Roehm said she was happy with the way the season turned out. “I’m happy we won the games we played, and I really think we all did our best.” Freshman Emily Gleason from the Blue team recalled the game against Benson as one of the most memorable games of the season, which they tied 3 to 3. Freshmen Jamie Roehm, Signe Olson, and Jennifer Bannon thought the most memorable game was the Lincoln game. It was a challenge to be playing their coach’s friend’s team. The girls felt it was necessary to bring pride to themselves and Grant. Competition between the two teams didn’t seem to be an important factor. Signe Olson commented, “There wasn’t that much competition between the girls, except when we played the game against each other.” This game counted and they tied. It only proved what was inevitable: the two J.V. teams were both equally talented and deserved a vote of congratulations for a season of hard work well spent. b8JV Tre hmcn Women's Soccer Karen Dixon and Shea Hougland watch tentatively as their teammates battle for another victory.

Senior Matthew Riddle was quoted as saying “It is much easier to run hard when you are going against good competition.” Freshman John Dimoff agreed, “You can’t really compete against yourself.” Other advantages mentioned were: the inspiration gained from one another, the comradeship of being a part of a whole, the experienced guidance from a coach, the chance to gauge skills those against of others, and the opportunity to meet new people. One of the keys to the team’s success has been theiretraining. In order to be the best runner possible by the end of the season, one must have been willing to work at his endurance and strategy, not only during the season, but also before the season had started. This meant starting before any of even the most faithful supporters had begun coming to bear witness to toil and sweat given in the name of running. Jon Nyquist, an exchange student from Sweden, explained, “To be good one must first really want to be so, and to improve, one should be ready to spend one and a half hours a day practicing.” John Dimoff regretted the loss of his free time, but felt that it was worth it in the long run. Matt Augspurger, reported by many to be easily one of the best on the team, testified that, “People think it is hard, but you can get into it.” Mark Cotton, coach for over twenty-four years, stressed the necessity of training independently before the season begins. Cotton describeded his training program as “starting with a base of distance early in the season, building strength in the middle, and working on speed toward the end. Instead of having one star runner, Matt Augspurger emphasized, “The whole team is generally quite consistent.” Of the talented runners, seven varsity members were sent to city competition this year including: Brian England, Matt Augspurger, Aaron Mautz, Matthew Riddle, Mark West, Rick Messier, and Matt Sten. Rick Messier was also sent to compete in the state meet in Eugene after coming in fifth in the city meet. Junior Brian England predicted, “We will undoubtedly have a strong team next year. Not only do we have returning varsity, but the JV has been consistent and has shown great potential for the future.” 70 Mcn’i Cjoo Country MEN’S VARSITY JV CROSS COUNTRY — Front row: Matthew Riddle, Aaron Mautz, Buck Sten, Mark West, Matt Augspurger, Brian England, Rick Mestler Second Row: Scott Kelly, James Weeks, Josh Goldschmidt, Eric Hansen, Ken Ossinger, Jon Nyquist, Phil Hehr Third Row: Kord Miller, Chris Ed wards, Rob Brown, Brian Kinney Top Row: Scott McMichael, Chon Armsbury, Nick Paulson, Kurt Bowers At a Cleveland meet, the Men’s JV team pushes ahead of their competitors.

More than half the population at Grant has to admit to having thought of that at least once. If you feel bad - repent. Look farther into the hardships of being a cheerleader. Especially a Grant cheerleader. One of the biggest responsibilities of rally is to promote spirit. At Grant that can sometimes prove to be quite a task. “Grant’s not a very spirited school, that is, unless we’re winning,” com- V--- the spirit mented Shannon Barnhart. For the few faithful souls, who cheered at the games and dressed up for spirit week, the Varsity rally says “thanks.” Other responsibilities pertaining to cheerleaders are fund-raising to earn money for their outfits, practicing cheers, making banners and signs, going to most of the games, and being in the assemblies. As senior Katie Liebert put it, “It took a heck of a lot of time.” The J V rally went out of their way to give our teams a boost. Sophomore Dana McGraw explains, “On Halloween there was a football game and we gave packages of candy to each player. We also decorated the bus with streamers and balloons.” Is all the time and energy worth it? For most of the cheerleaders it was definite, “Yes!” There were also a few that had many late nights spent on homework but, all in all, they too were satisfied. “I appreciated being on rally because it made me more positive. It was a terrific experience,” said Fran-cine Smuck. So, how about giving a rally member a hug today? Displaying their strength and agility necessary to a rally girl, Meredith Bleakley and Shannon Barnhart raise spirits a little higher than usual.

Pep assemblies provided students a chance to show off their school spirit. In class, students attempted to maintain their composure, but at assemblies, their true nature was revealed! “It’s great to get a break from classes to use our extra energy,” stated junior Liza Rue. Assemblies pleased many students this year. Junior David Erickson voiced his opinion: The school administration changed the assembly format from classes competing against each other to classes uniting their spirit and getting fired up.’ This reduced friction between classes, faculty, and the administration.” More emphasis was placed on presentations, announcements, and school events, as well as recognizing our hard working athletes. Each class participated in cheering, but students also displayed their spirit in several other ways. “The senior class worked together as a group and won most of the class competitions,” explained senior Lynn Dusek. Junior Jennifer Birt described junior spirit: Most of our class wore hats and sunglasses at one assembly. We waved newspapers and threw candy at another. We also showed spirit by sticking together as a class and not cheering! As for sophomores, “We cheered for everyone including speakers, class representatives, and the rallies, stressed sophomore Tom Lakin. Freshman Chris Rekstad summed up the feelings of many freshmen: “We weren’t really ready and we didn’t know what to do or expect, so we just cheered.” Grant students also viewed a variety of educational assemblies. These included the Gordon Fullerton and the Dr. Martin Luther King productions. Cyndi Hatch expressed the feelings of several Grantonians: “The educational assemblies were usually informative and interesting. However, they were sometimes too long.” In addition, students also enjoyed occasional teaser assemblies performed by students advertising the up-coming plays. The junior class eagerly unload their pockets into the money tube going toward the ’United Way.’ Feature 77 Eric Borgeson Molly Borghorst James Borquist Kurt Bowers Jerry Brazie Kyle Brewster Angela Brown Cherise Brown Robert Brown Erin Browning David Brumm Mai Bui 78 Juniors Jared Bassett Kimberly Bell Stephanie Bell Katherine Bennett Kyle Bergeson Jennifer Birt Laura Birt Tyler Black What’s the best excuse you’ve ever heard for not having an assignment that was due?

The three bands that formed included Parental Guidance” (PG), “Instantaneous Body Combustion (IBC), and Wehrmacht. The result? Remarkable! PG consisted of two Grantonians and four Grant alumni: junior, Josh Goldschmidt, seniorS Richard Ellis, and alumni Tim Stoutt, Pat Rask, and the well-rounded musicians Chris Kent and Joey Seiffers. The group presented a number of shows in places such as the Parrot Mt. Music Festival, Pine Street Theater, and a few parties. “The most successful performance, though, was the dance we played for at Grant on January 17th,” agreed Kent and Seiffers. “We all really had fun up there on stage,” commented Ellis. Next came l.B.C. with those crazy fellas Kurt Bukowski, Jeff Larson, Mike Martin, and Ian Roscoe. They made their first debut at a party charging admission; not only did they roll in money, but they gained the necessary confidence in their strong musical abilities. Another successful performance occurred at the Satyricon in downtown Portland, where they opened for the group Mayhem.” The place flooded with IBC fans. Larson declared, We get along great with each other. Mike writes the catchy melodies, I write the fast parts, Ian provides the drumming, and Kurt sings the tunes.” 94 Feature PARENTAL GUIDANCE — Richard Ellis, Joey Seiffers, Tim Stoutt, Pat Rask, Chris Kent, Josh Goldschmidt At a Wehrmacht concert, the audience shows their appreciation of the music while Brian Lehfeldt, Shawn Mortimer, tito Matos.

These talented musicians form the elite group called Stage Band. Auditions for Stage Band are held before school in ear ly September, and there are never more than twenty people allowed into this special group of the school’s top musicians. Stage Band presently consists of sax-ophonists, trombonists, trumpeteers, one pianist, one guitar and one bass guitarists, and one drummer. All members must have previous experience playing in bands, as well as the ability to improvise jazz. “I just love playing with the band,” praised All-City, All-State Alternate drummer Mark Alspach, “We all have one goal and that’s to sound badder than life, and we do!” The Stage Band plays pop rock, like Tina Turner and Brian Adams’ “It’s Only Love”, or old rock like “Louie, Louie”. They also play a few ballads, but their main theme is jazz. “I love Jazz, it’s great brain food,” explained J.P. Moss, alto saxist. Another area of heavy concentration is solos. “Everyone gets a chance at least once,” explained director Mr. Richie. “If you don’t want to solo, you shouldn’t try out.” All the basketball games and assemblies are graced with the sound of the Stage Band in action. The band also attended two Jazz Festivals and many members competed in the All-State Band Competition. One of the reasons the Stage Band is so solid, is it’s “together” alto sax section. “Richard Ellis just jams,” exclaimed fellow sax player Moss. Also, all the people get along well together, and even get together 96 Symphonic Band Star soloist of Stage Band Jammin”’ Richard Ellis performs a sax solo at the McDonald’s Grand Opening.

The Symphonic Band, Grant’s other star band, has the sound of a full concert orchestra. The band is composed of 50-55 students, playing a great variety of instruments, and a great variety of music. Usually, students are only admitted into the Symphonic Band after taking at least one year of Junior band, or by getting Mr. Richie’s approval. All the football games were accompanied by the Symphonic Band, and they also played in the state band competition. The band also performed in four school concerts; the Fall, Christmas with the choirs, Winter, and Spring. As a bonus attraction to this year’s band members, they’ve been invited to play at the World’s Exposition in Vancouver B.C. in May. They also played at the opening of the new Hollywood McDonald’s for money and press coverage. Stage Band 97 Instrumental ensembles entertain Small emsemble work may look easy from the audience’s perspective, but it takes experienced instrumentalists and lots of practice to make the music come together without the direction of a conductor. Two groups at Grant are capable of such finesse: the Dixieland Band and the Flute Choir. The Dixieland Band, which plays New Orlean’s style jazz and ragtime, performed at several concerts during the performance season. A dinner concert was held to raise money in the spring for the band’ tour to Vancouver, British Columbia for the World Exposition. The Dixieland Band played with the stage band in May at Expo. In addition, the Dixieland Band entertained al fresco for a spring concert and at the closing festivities for the Junior Rose Festival parade. The Flute Choir, the newest of Grant’s instrument groups, included ten experienced flutists, capable of interpreting classical works. This group performed at concerts in the spring and culminated their season’s activities by entertaining thousands at Civic Auditorium for the commencement ceremonies. The brass section of the Dixieland Band practices a difficult passage on their lunch hour. Their concentration apparent in their expressions, members of the Flute Choir play a classical piece at the commencement ceremonies. Richard Ellis, Jeff Dzubay and Tony Tuttle perform at the dinner concert to fund their trip to Expo. Members of the Dixieland Band join the stage band for a performance at the World Exposition.

The zero-period class is, as Ramona Kaiser described it, “A wonderful way to wake up in the morning.” Though comprised almost entirely of sophmores and freshmen with just a few juniors and one senior, the Choralettes strove to get the credit that they deserved and prove that they were just as good as any past year’s group.“We had a lot of motivation and enthusiasm” expostulated Delisa Gray of the group that she was so proud to be in. Besides the songs “Bridge Over Troubled Water” by Simon and Garfunkel and the classical “Now Is The Month Of Maying”, the Choralettes also collaborated with male counterparts, The Octet, for numbers “Tonight” from West Side Story and “Summer Lovin’” from Grease. Erika Armsbury shared,“I like being a part of it, I don’t know what else to say, it was a really neat thing.” All of the girls involved were not merely “a part of it,” they were a group that worked together and a group that played together. “No matter how we sang, we had a blast,” said Stacey Strade in a manner that generally summed up the entire Choralettes experience. Octet, the off-the-wall, sometimes zany men’s choral ensemble, enjoyed another exciting year. Aside from the regular middle school sing-outs and school assemblies, the Octet has also performed in many special shows in Portland area hotels and shopping malls, as well as competing against the city’s all male choirs at the Oregon Music Educators Association. Needless to say, our vivacious, crazy men took first place. Octet is designed for young male singers who don’t have the opportunity to add choir to their regular school-day schedules. It’s offered eighth period in the choir room and usually lasts 45 minutes to an hour, but sometimes work before school is also re- 100 Choir quired. Occasionally their special events require out-of-school traveling. “The men perform showtunes, classical and Broadway idioms,” explained director Janet Howland, but senior Ethan Kramer insisted, “It’s mainly just a lot of fun.” Anyone who would like the opportunity to sing in an all male chorus should contact Mrs. Howland for an audition, but since the group is mostly fun and games junior Dan Nissila claimed, “Anybody who can sing really well, or at least sing well, as long as he can carry a tune, or at least a note, or possibly within one or two musical steps away from the note, or can at least crack a joke, is welcome in Octet.” Mike Watters insisted, “It’s fun and entertaining for others, and I’ve gotten a chance to form a close group with all the guys.” So, “if you’re interested in a year of close friendships, lots of performance and solo opportunities in school, come join Octet,” advised Mrs. Howland. When the beautiful sounds of finely-tuned madrigals and smooth jazz issue from choir room, one can be assured that the Royal Blues are in there singing. The Royal Blues, Grant’s top group, is “a rag-tag group of harmony seekers,” joked group member Doug Petrina. The group does indeed consist of members from various walks of life who are able to combine their talents and make the performances outstanding. “We jam, baby, we jam!” proclaimed Liz Morris, one of the group’s leading vocalists. Other group leaders include: Dan Nissila, Danielle Duvall, and Scot Zeller, who, in his characteristic manner rejoiced, “I LOVE IT!” The group, which presently consists of more members than it has had for several years, was started by Howland when she first came to Grant over 20 years ago. The group’s success may be attributed to Howland’s push for perfection and the students’ feel for the music which they bring to life.

The choir, under direction of long-time teacher, Janet Howland, has con-peted widely, earning a great deal of respect from other school choirs and their directors. But it takes much more than merely nose-to-the-grindstone work and, as Mrs. Howland put it, “a pool of talent, it takes students to enjoy what they’re doing.” “I wouldn’t be in here if I didn’t enjoy it.” explained junior Abbe Sugarman. Active members such as seniors Liz Morris, David Deckard and Greg Coulter, and juniors Gari Lynn Barnes, Owen Arm- strong, and Melodie Elder among others help to motivate their fellow vocalists to further expanses, higher heights and new peaks of excellence. “It’s not an experience to be overlooked by thrill-seekers,” expostulated Owen Armstrong, junior, describing the precarious balance between perfection and mediocrity, “but we always come out on top, it’s uncanny!” The senior choir is yet another group of students with a common bond that we at GHS can be proud to have in its midst. Pro-phesised Dan Nissila,“As long as there is music to be sung, we’ll be here to sing it.” Not to be overlooked in the light of the senior choir are the Cadet and Freshman cahoirs. Both of these will be the contributors to the future Senior choirs. Members of Cadet choirs, such as Cindy Clark and Debbie Halstead, as well as freshmen Mindy Young and Johnny Useldinger show that they are capable of performing to meet the high standards of Grant’s choir. In the winter choir concert, they combined their talents on several numbers as well as their original “rap session” called ’We’re Havin’ Fun’. 102 Choirs Buddies Andy Wilson and Liz Morris take a break from singing to strike a friendly pose.

They started off by going to a French restaurant to acquire a taste of French culture. During Christmas vacation the French club went and caroled throughout the Grant neighborhood and raised money by selling Advent calendars. They also helped Toy and Joy Makers with their toy distribution. The biggest event was the trip to France. Five students plus two advisors, Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Hiser, jetted to France for ten days in March. “The best thing about the trip was the opportunity to use the language,” commented Hiser. The group toured several places in France such as the birthplace of Joan of Arc and some chateaux of France. “I hope the trip to France becomes an annual tradition,” commented senior Janice Richards, “so that more people will be able to experience French culture.” The students who didn’t get to go on the trip also participated in other activities. “The Mardi Gras was the gala experience of the year,” raved junior Erin-Todd Hansen. Other than Grant, other schools took part in the Mardi Gras that was held in Cleveland High School’s cafeteria. They had a buffet table covered with foreign delicacies from China and Japan, France and Germany. All of this was to let the students experience other cultures they wouldn’t necessarily have a chance to get to know otherwise. The Spanish club was relatively inactive during the school year. According to the advisor, Mr. Sonera, “We had two meetings after school, but very few people attended.” Sonera stated that he would continue to generate interest in Spanish culture in the 1986-87 school year.

Spanish 105 German Club offers advantages Although the German club at Grant is not the most active of the language clubs, there are other advantages to being a member. While the German club planned to hold a club dinner at the Rhcinlander Restaraunt on Sandy Boulevard in December, it had to be canceled due to icy conditions. Being a member of a language club does, however, have advantages other than planned activities. “Even if your club doesn’t do anything all year, you can still write that you were a member on college and job applications,” asserted German club member Bonnie Cheng. Senior Amy Ratzlaf proclaimed that she had gained a sense of German identity from being in the club.“ For the Fifth year German students, PSU offers college credit. Also, if students took the Advanced Placement tests for the language they have taken, and did well enough, they could skip some of the easier college level 106 German classes of the language. Several German students noted that they wanted to use their speaking abilities later in life when they plan on visiting Germany, and that their understanding of English grammar was improved by learning the functions of another language. Several German students competed in the recitation contest that was recently held at PSU. In the contest, students had to recite two German poems which were each eight stanzas long. Students competed at different difficulty levels according to how many years of language training they have had. Sophmore Mark St.John who thinks that Mr. Purvis is a great teacher professed that the recitation contest can incite “fear and plenty of it.” Latin club — Front row.: Tim Kasper, Ben Walsh, Matt Stcn Second row.

Most students don’t spend that much time on homework in a week. Nevertheless, to cll the staff members, the extra time spent after school is well worth it. The final copy is a proof of all the hard work and dedication put in by a group of Grant students like you. Every year the best thing for Ms. Demien, the Yearbook advisor, remains “handing out the books in and seeing people exclaim over a picture or quote.” The staff also takes a personal pride in what they work on and how they do it. As well as others, they enjoy the final stages of their work and the finished product. Senior and editor-in-chief Jennefer Hardin added, “No other class gives you the feeling of having an actual hard-cover book that you helped create.” The Grantonian, the paper which is produced by the Journalism 3-4 class every few weeks, remains an excellent source of infor- mation for the student body. With the entertaining Jon Blumenauer column and the controversial Mike and Bo, the Grant newspaper continues to be one of the best in the city. “Mike and Bo dedicate themselves to giving the reader the best stories of any high school paper. Each column requires countless hours of detective work, probing interviews, and hard-nosed reporting,” commented junior Bowman Hastie. Not to mention a certain journalistic creativity. You may ask, what does a journalist for the paper actually do? Well, they basically have the same things to do that a yearbook person has. The big difference is that they have less time to write copy, do layouts, sell ads, 108 Grantonian ► Busily proofreading copy, editor-in-chief Jcnnefer Hardin doesn’t realize she’s getting her picture taken.

The result being, “the wrath of the student body will fall upon us,” insisted senior Britta Erickson, editor of the Grantonian. Many students, faculty, and parents enjoy reading Grant’s newspaper. “I like to read the sports section because it’s the only place where most Grant teams get recognized,” admitted sophomore Geoff Tiffany. Whenever the paper comes out you can see students and faculty alike reading them in the classrooms, halls, and cafeteria. “I read the school paper because it keeps me in-formed,” explained Biology teacher, Bob Doltar. Memoirs 109 International groups explore other cultures The International Club is one of the busiest clubs at Grant. Celebrating all of the major holidays of cultures throughout the world keeps all of its members, and coordinator,Mrs. Hiser, planning events almost constantly. Mrs. Hiser stated the clubs main purpose was “to prepare students to get to know, understand, and appreciate other nationalities and cultures.” The only prere-quisit for being involved in this club was to have an interest in others and their culture, although many of its members did have some foreign language background. International Club met once every two weeks to plan activities, with an average attendance of thirty students. Their activities ranged from Christmas caroling in foreign tongues throughout the neighborhood, to attending the annual Mardi Gras festival held at Cleveland High School. They also had Mr. Douthit share his slides with the group of his recent trip to China. The Clinton Street Theatre was reserved for the group to watch a French comedy flick. When the foreign exchange students were here for a week, the club through a party for them “to show an interest in having them here and welcome them, member Andrea Wilson commented. All of this and more kept the group busy all year long, ’’and having tons of fun,“ added the club’s president, Christine Young Debating international issues and broadening understanding of various cultures is the major concern of Model United Nations. The group began the year studying El Salvador and Jamaica’s foreign policy on a variety of issues. Meeting once a week, the group read each country’s policy statement and reviewed their political and economic history in preparation for the annual statewide conference in Eugene. In addition, the group heard guest speakers discuss the situation in Niguargua and the projected effects of nuclear war. At the spring conference in Eugene, members of the group act like their counterparts in the United Nations, giving speeches, chairing committees and debating resolutions. In order to attend, each member must past an oral exam to demonstrate their competancy. The test includes questions on the history, natural resources, political leaders and foreign policy of the represented country. Because Grant’s group lost members during the year, only one representative, Rachel Uris, attended the statewide conference. According to Bret Wonderlick reasons for the low participation at the conference included, “more interest in going to Eugene than in actually studying the issues.” Ac a weekly meeting members of MUN discuss the foreign policy of Jamaica while advisor, Elaheh Grecn-baum listens. Former Grant teacher, Millie Thayer, speaks to MUN members about her recent visit to Niguargua. I International Club 111 Intelligence adds up to victory Checkmate! That was the most frequently used word with the members of the chess club this year. Grant had two divisions within the chess club; the top five players were on the A team and the remaining players were on the B team. Grant’s A team played ten other teams in the Portland Chess Team League and finished second out of ten matches of play. The win in the chess league, which Grant started two years ago, guaranteed the chessmen a chance to compete in State. The win was an achieve-ment for the team because according to Mr. Flannigan, the team’s advisor, “We were in fifth and sixth place and we pulled up and took second place.” “About three pounds from all the milk and cookies,” is what senior Joy Anderson said she gained from being a Mathletc. Joy and junior Dan Nissila nourish themselves after a tough meet.

Sophomore Randy Dunn competed against the best player in the entire state and tied. Junior Karl Paulson said that participating in chess club was a “mind stimulating experience.” The Grant High Mathletes certainly had nothing to be ashamed about in their competitions. Out of six city meets, Grant placed a solid third among the other PIL schools. Senior Jennefer Hardin is the president of the club and there are five vice presidents. According to Mimi Edtl, the club adviser, “Seven people compete in each meet, working problems based on their own level of math skills. We have to have at least one student from each grade level competing in each meet.” Junior Dan Nissila seemed to appreciate Mrs. Edtl and her work as an adviser when he said, “She is , very organized and always manages to have a team ready for every meet.” Senior Joy Anderson, one of the vice presidents, stated, as did others, that she gained “leadership skills and test-taking skills” buy participating in the club.

A sucessful fund-raiser for the group was a job of distributing advertisement flyers for a local fishmarket. According to Christine Zinter, treasurer for the group, “Membership dues and fundraising money goes toward two $200 scholarships at the end of the year.” Later in the year the club had a Christmas party which was described by Andrea Southard: “We watched two ’exciting’ movies and MATHLETES — Front Row: Britta Erickson, Denise Tester, Ann Riddle, Jcnncfcr Hardin Top Row: Sally Lowe, John Hanches, Dan Nissila, Drew Voth, Scott Scttlcmier, Kusha Janati, Josh Kreinberg, Mimi Edtl CHESS CLUB — Front Row: Mark St. Johns, Randy Dunn, Tim Walker, Top Ron: Tim Halcn, Tim Chester, Karl Paulson, Bob Easter Preparing for another math encounter of the third kind, John Hanches hits the books.

Class Councils are individual groups from different grade levels that get together to determine fun and exciting things to do. Mr. Whitlow, the special activities teacher, directs these groups to plan and propose special activities. Do these sound familiar? Dances, headshaving, love-matching, pie-throws, and class competitions. They should because the councils have made them possible. All of the groups have devoted their time to the raising of money for certain activities such as future proms which everyone wants. Senior class president Gina Garnero and the subcommitee, arranged for the band and location of our prom to be in a very luxurious setting such as the Red Lion Hotel. The juniors, headed by Matt Sten, raised quite a few bucks with a couple of dances including the only dance with a live band, Parental Guidance, and several carwashes. The juniors are probably the most eager to want a really nice prom and are working toward it! Matt stated, “the experience was enjoyable and we needed the money.” Sophomore council president Randy Bour-quein exclaimed, “Although it was a learning experience, and there was a lot pressure, we had a lot of fun!” Freshmen council leader Troy Widner and his group, including vice president Jamie Roehm and Heather Wheeler as treasurer, got a late start in the council, but hope to make up the time with a paper drive. “We hope to raise a little money in a short amount of time and have some fun by the end of the year for our class” stated Troy. The freshmen, sophomore, junior and senior councils meet outside for a group picture. At the year’s only dance with a live band, members of PG help one of the class councils to boggic their way to the bank.

It is primarily concerned with representing the student body in matters of budget expenditures, encouraging involvement, and organizing activities. The council is advised by Leonard Whitlow and consists of President, Jennifer Vandever; Vice President, Katie James; Tresurer, Kusha Janati; Secretary, Valerie Menely; Athletic Representative, Hilary Colbert; and Service Representative, Meredith Bleakley. They met every Tuesday during lunch and on Thursdays when necessary. Members of the council tried to increase student participation by organizing activities that promote school pride such as pep assemblies and the establishment of the Student Advisory Council. The council’s main strength was that the members all knew each other well and were supportive of one another’s ideas yet they could voice opposing opinions and contribute their own share of input and work. The greatest problem the council had to face was that of student apathy. Jennifer Vandever stated, “We can do little about students that choose not to care and so the solution is to simply accept that a certain number of students don’t wish to be involved and work with the resources that we do have.’’ The Student Advisory Council concerned themselves with the needs and wants of the student body. It performed essentially the same function as the Executive Council except it gave unelected students a chance to add their own input. The SAC met once a week. Its members included Bonnie Gee, Rachel Uris, Deanna Keltner, Jennifer Baker, Shelly Roehm, Matt Sten, Bowman Hastie, Patty Sheib and the Executive Council members. All the members worked together and put in their share of spirit.

The Thespians, like the National Honor Society, are an organization that has a national affiliation. Drama students become Thespians by earning points toward membership participating in drama productions as actors, and production crew. In addition to participating directly in plays, Thespians support Grant’s drama productions by serving as ushers and selling snacks at intermission. There is an annual fee for membership as well that includes the national registration and the subscription to a magazine written for theater students. During the residence of the Ashland actors, Thespians attended workshops to learn the skills in characterization, staging techniques and dramatic combat. For the State Thespian Conference in May, several of Grant’s members presented One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, as one of four troupes statewide, requested to perform. Several members placed high in scene competition which includes single and duo scenes, mime, and musical presentation. In addition members may audition for college scholarships. More than 50 members met early in June to celebrate a great season by holding the annual BB Award Show. Mixing skits, roasts and toasts, Thespians entertained themselves while giving awards for a variety of talents. Rebecca Kimball was given the Buskin Cup the most outstanding single performance in Gypsy. Wendy Buel, Tim True and Scott Zeller received the Betty Foster award for service to the group, and Jennifer Vandever along with Zeller won Thespian awards for their consistently excellent performances in several productions. Performing the one-act comedy, An Actor's Nightmare Scot Zeller tries to learn which play he’s in from Tim True while Rebecca Kimball and Cindy Ganley confuse the issue.

One of the many sights on the Close-Up trip to San Francisco included a whaling vessel at Fisherman’s Wharf. Close-Up trips fun and informative “The pure bulk of information which was learnable in such a short period of time was incredible, especially in that I was having so much fun the whole time,” raved Junior Matt Sten. But what was this incredible learning experience Mr. Sten was refering to? Was it Mrs. Mill’s trigonometry class? No. Was it the dreaded Alcornian Experience? No. It was Grant High School’s own Close-Up trip to Washington D.C. promoting citizen education by taking students to D.C. to see how our government works “close up.” This was also the first year the Close-Up program offered a trip to San Francisco to learn about trade relations with the upcoming economic giants of the Pacific Rim nations. Mr. Cromley, head of the social studies department and Close-Up advisor participated in both expeditions and seemed to have as much fun as the students. “We’re just trying to make learning more interesting. Government ends up being a more personal issue rather than something learned in a textbook. People can relate to it,” explained Cromley. Aside from seminars and talks, the D.C. trip allowed students a chance to see an in-depth trial of the Supreme Court. This particular case was about a young man who had been expelled from his high school for delivering a “sexually suggestive” campaign speech for his friend. While he never said anything directly the innuendoes were allegedly there. “It was a fresh case. What’s even better is that the guy was winning!” bubbled Ben Walsh who later wrote a government paper about the case. The students also went to the Library of Congress, received tickets to “A Chorus Line,” visited Georgetown University, and toured the FBI Museum. The Pac-Rim Conference on trade relations held in San Francisco was a trial project for Close-Up. Students stayed in Japantown (no, not Chinatown, Japantown) in the Kyoto Inn and learned about the cultures of Pacific Rim nations such as Japan, China, Korea, Thailand and The Phillipines. “Americans are going to have to learn to be less ethnocentric in their views because of the importance of foreign trade,” explained Denise Tester. “I went because I’m interested in trade or business and plan to 120 Close Up CLOSE-UP — Front Row: Charles Feinstein, Matt Sten, Ben Walsh, Katherine Kafoury, Chris Zintcr, Ann Riddle Second Row: Amy Ratzlaf, Deanna Kcltner, Jennifer Baker, Shelly Roehm, Laura Smith, Kim Crozicr, Chelsea Unthank, Denise Tester Top Row: Jean Cheng, Victoria Robinson Being a chaparonc can be an exhausting job as Mr. Cromley’s relaxed posture testifies.

Students also visited foreign consulates, the Federal Reserve Bank, toured the ports of San Francisco and took a side trip to Sacramento to see a rice farm. They also took a boat trip to Angel Island to see the original internment camps. “It was the first time Close-Up ever chartered a boat. We’d chartered busses, taxis, planes, and even trollies and subways, but never a boat,” claimed Cromley. “We had a lot of fun, but I don’t think I’ll ever like sushi,” related Keltner. All in all the Close-Up programs seem to be growing in popularity. Originally five students from Grant participated in the Washington trip. Fifteen students went this year. “It was challenging to raise enough money for everyone to go, but we made it,” stated Cromley proudly. “I would advise anyone who has had any inclination earlier to participate, or anyone who has any interest in government to check it out,” advertised Sten. Close (Jp 121 Secretarial group sparks with electronics The class that was so widely known as Model Office has now been changed to Electronic Office. If anyone has been there lately they would know exactly why it’s called Electronic Office. The students have access to electronic, very easy to use typewriters, five word-processors, Dictaphones,and computers. The students use this equipment to learn more about the secretarial job market. Many of them will be taking what they have learned with them into their future job goals, such as being a secretary, recptionist, or any field that has to do with using up to date office equipment. The class has been participating in a parody which consists of a make-up company called Serendipity Inc. that truly does exist in New York. Mrs. Kapler decided to use a company instead of outside non-profit work as she has done in the past. This project is a twelve week process, where the students act as business and customer. Each customer owns her own small business which relies on the Serendipity company. The students who work in the Serendipity company have the jobs of administrative assistant, accounting manager, office manager, shipping clerk, sales manager, and receptionist. They carry out their duties as if they were involved in a real business. Electronic Office has gone on a field trip to the PGE company to see how they run their corporation. The class has been more involved in class projects this year than in field trips which they have gone on in the past. Many of the students have said that this class was a learning experience in more than one aspect. Kristin Johnson, senior, stated, “I learned how to write out order forms for a business so that they could get my make-up to me for my business.” Nancy Olson, also a senior, is planning on taking what she has learned into the field of communication: “I plan to take courses in communication 122 Model Office when I go to college and Electronic Office has helped me to learn how to communicate better with people, and to use many new office machines.” The Electronic Office course at Grant obviously teaches the students of today to strive for their futures of tommorow!

Model Office 123 Cultures mingle to expand The Asian club is primarily a group for Asian kids to get together to meet other Asian kids. Most of the oriental students are here without their families and need some sort of cultural group with which to identify. “This is a club to help preserve the culture of Indo-Chinese students that have come to the U.S.,” said Ms. Tursi, the group’s advisor. The group has about twenty-five active members, who meet once a month. There are also splinter groups such as a traditional dance group, and a martial arts group. The Asian club sponsored several other annual events like the Christmas and New Year’s celebrations. They also published a book that includes prose, poetry written by the students, and folk tales they have brought from their countries. Although the club is primarily a club for Asian students, anybody can be a member. Another cultural program at Grant in the American Field Service which brought four students here from around the world. Two foreign exchange students, Jon Nyquist, and Conchita Angulo spent the entire school year as Grantonians. Jon Nyquist is a senior from Sweden and was here until the end of the year. This was Jon’s First trip to the U.S., although he has traveled through most of Europe. Commenting on a common misconception about Americans, Jon said, “Most Europeans think of Americans as fat A group of Asian students meet to discuss group activities in Mr. NuttaU’s room before school.

When asked about the people in the U.S. she replied, “People arc really different here, their values are different and they don’t seem to worry much about the future.” Grant had two other exchange students this year, Andriana Polo who stayed six months, and Maria Gomez who moved to the coast in November due to difficulties in living arrangements. AFS 125 Community helps students reach goals The Parents’ Club is made up of many parents of the Grant High area who help promote recognition to school activities. The group meets once a month to discuss upcoming events and design flyers encouraging the families of Grantonians to participate in this school-sponsered events. One of the goals they have is to give support to the faculty as well as the students themselves. The Parents’ Club also plans various activities that include guest speakers who come talk about different ideas that have to do with current school related issues. There are a few requirements for being part of the Parents’ Club, including dues, and the availability to work at giving Grant support. “I think that the Parents’ Club is a good idea because it gets the parents involved with the school activities,” expressed Brad Cermak. The Partnership Project is a school-to-work transition program for the students at Grant High School. It is designed to prepare young people to obtain entry level jobs in private sectors. It requires the direct participation of business people in the community to co-ordinate job opportunities with Grant’s course offerings. Current statistics indicate that high schools are experiencing a thirty percent dropout rate. When these youths have dropped out of school are unable to find work, they often turn to risky alternatives, such as crime, drugs and prostitution. The Partnership Project attempts to keep young kids in school by offering them a meaningful learning experience, an alter-native to the traditional mathematics English curriculum. “We have set up a course of study that is work related and also provides full-time and part-time paid work experiences for the students,” stated the project's director, Kathy Treves. Partnership Project has many goals they would like to accomplish. One of the goals is to assist minority disadvantaged youth to obtain work experience during their high school career by locating jobs for them. All of the participating 50 students are currently employed in positions outside school. Other goals include teaching youth to accept responsibility by meeting homework deadlines, reporting to work on time, and In-housc interviews with prospective employers is a feature of the Partnership Project that My Trang Doan finds profitable.

Students qualify for the project by being sophomore or junior at Grant High School, having a 2.0 grade point average and coming from an economically disadvantaged family. “ I feel that this program will help me for my future goals,” commented David Hanson. The Talented and Gifted program is made up of Portland Public School teachers who respond to the needs of students by providing interesting and challenging programs to students excelling in academic or artistic ability. Some of these needs cannot be met by conventional methods and it is for these students with unique needs, students who are identified as talented and gifted, that special programs are offered district-wide. Grant’s Talented and Gifted program led by faculty member, Gene Jenkins. There are many students involved in this program who enjoy the work offered by this program. Students are identified and served district-wide from among the top 3 to 5 percent of the students in three catagories of giftedness: academic, intellectual, and visual pcrforming arts. The educational programs offered to the gifted students are designed to build on student strengths and include the study of topics and ideas that are of special interest to students. Students may be nominated for the program by teacher, parent, peer or self-nomination. Some of the goals of the Talented and Gifted program are to develop basic and advanced skills and knowledge appropriate to the students’ assessed learning rates and instructional levels, and to develop the behavior and skills useful in self-directed learning.

The group of students at center hall and clove corner is easily visible, wearing stirrup pants with sweatshirts tied around their waists and multiple friendship bracelets adorning their arms. Such fads are rarely popular with the entire student body, however. “Fads in general are unappealing, but social masochism thrives and the tide of mediocrity continues to overwhelm us,” sighed senior Jean Cheng. Sophomore Rachael Jezierski rebelled against a fad which has gained popularity among the younger students of Grant, saying “I hate the Madonna look. It’s bad enough that there’s one person who looks like that. Who needs more?” Freshmen Sarah Swenson, Lara Hoover, and Emily Mann agreed that their favorite style of dress was simply “looking casual instead of dressy.” Junior Peter Bull gave an egotistical view of fads, saying “I like the ones I started. Besides “the” look, there was also “the” class image this year at Grant. Seniors are still one of the most respected classes. Sophomore Lisa Wathen described senior guys as cute” and senior girls as “gorgeous, smart, and thoughtful. The junior class was very controversial, generating wildly divergent opinions among the members of other classes. Freshman Liz Larson described them as “inventive, always doing things differently from everyone else,” while senior Kusha Janati complained that our junior class is not a typical one. While most junior classes have in the past come close to the maturity level of the seniors, this particular class falls farther behind than even the freshmen.” Sophomores, often called one of the most trendy classes in the school, were accurately described by sophomore Randy Bourquein as “able to think for themselves. Getting into the flow of things and forgetting they were once freshmen.” The freshman class, traditionally ridiculed by the older classes, could not seem to get away from their stereotype. Junior Tasha Harden succinctly characterized them as “small.” The freshmen will just have to wait until next year to have someone younger to pick on. Senior Jenni MacDonald and junior David Dimoff peer at each other through their sunglasses. Lounging in a classroom, junior Jennifer Ferguson is casually fashionable. One of the most popular trends, friendship bracelets, is helpfully pointed out by senior Jon Blumenauer. Two extremes of hairstyles are modeled by sophomore Marty Jennings and freshman Tristan Hartfield. Three of Grant’s jocks, junior Brent Exton and seniors Danny Baune and Tom Jones, along with football coach Bob Doltar, epitomize the athletic look with Levi’s, letterman’s jackets, and football jerseys.

take 1 spot For the past 17 years the Grant General’s men’s varsity basketball team has been, but this season was different, and everyone knew it. Mo one could stop the Generals; even the Wilson Trojans were caught by the snow balling effect of Grant. The Generals went into the first tournament game with Springfield and mashed the Millers 72 to 57. In the second game of the tournament, Grant was pitted against the Redmond Panthers, and pounded them 88 to 66. The tension mounted as the Generals axed the Apollos 59 to 41. Mow it was just Grant and Corvallis, head to head for the AAA high school men’s basketball state championship. The time had come for the Grant Generals to prove to the state of Oregon that they were number one. “Basically we had the state championship as a goal from the first day of practice,’’ said Joe McFerrin. “We knew it was a big goal but we thought we were capable of doing it.” At the midpoint of the game, the Spartans led the Generals 35-30, but their lead was short-lived, and the Generals came back to win the game, smashing the Spartans 56 to 54. The Grant Generals became 1986 AAA boys state basketball champions. The Grant boys were not the only team that made it to state playoffs; the varsity girls team played at the Chile’s Center at the University of Portland. In the first game the girls lost to Glencoe knocking them into the consolation bracket. The Generals won their second and third games, but unfortunately lost the consolation game putting them in sixth place. 150 Feature ifiversg 01 Senior Stan Roberts gently eases the ball off his fingertips as the Spartans and spectators watch intently.

The players agreed that our program has reached such an excellent standard due to the participation of so many students. Junior Perry Wiggins commented that “because so many people want to play, it is very competitive, very intense.” The team was rated 1 in state as well as city before the season had even concluded. Since the team’s ranking was so high, aas well as that of the individual players, it received a vast amount of publicity from the local newspapers. Concerning the coverage’s affect on the to victory attitude and performance of some of the players. Forward Pat Worley stated that, “Since everyone is just waiting for you to screw up, you try harder to show them that they are wrong.” Perry Wiggin on the other hand took the publicity in stride saying that “it was to be expected.” In a school as large as Grant, it takes hard work and talent to reach the limelight. As coach John Stilwell commented, “The players react well to the training. They want to be good, so they listen and are receptive.” Those who made the team seemed to feel privliged to be a part of the team. Senior Jon Blumenauer, who recently transferred from Lincoln, expressed his opinion saying that he “savors every win,” but “refuses to take winning for granted.” He stressed that he “loves being here, playing here, and practicing here.” The team concluded their PIL season with a league record of 17 wins and only one loss. The average margin of victory was 24.9 points. A number of players felt that their loss to Benson by six points was their worst effort as a team, and that the best game was the first victory against Wilson.

The crowd roared as the Grant varsity women made the last basket in their impressive victory over Wilson. This game determined Grant to be the 1st place basketball team in the PIL, ending Wilson’s two year winning streak. Players were ecstatic by the closing of the season. “We had really positive attitudes, and we were confident in our defensive skills together,” explained senior Bridget Smith. Chosen as the most inspirational player, Smith contributed immensely to their winning season. Another major contributor was senior Cassie Demry who was voted the most improved player. Team members also improved in other areas. Senior Quinn Black declared, “I grew as a person, learning to deal with others, and meanwhile, 1 grew physically with the game of basketball.” Despite being ill during part of the season, Black continued to be extremely supportive to her teammates. The team strove to meet two main goals throughout the season. The first goal was to place first in the city, and the second was to be a tough competitor in the state play-offs. Not only were these goals accomplished, but also the essential one of each player using their skills. Preparation for their tremendous season started with strenuous practices five days a week for at least two hours. Once the games began in December, each player prepared herself individually. Senior Hilary Colbert stated, “I blocked everything out before a game — school and home. I thought positively about making the shots.” Coach Tom McKenna certainly felt pleased with the season. “I was more demanding of the players both on and off the courts. Basketball became our number one priority,” he remarked. Senior Amani Housen agreed, “When you enjoy something as much as we enjoy playing basketball together, the sacrifices are next to nothing.” Many of the players are sorry to be leaving. Coach McKenna concluded, “I’m proud of our accomplishments, but I’m sad it’s over.” VARSITY WOMEN'S BASKETBALL Grant Opponent 71 Parkrose 61 45 Glencoe 51 49 Marshall 52 57 Benson 33 60 Cleveland 29 91 Roosevelt 38 53 Franklin 55 59 Madison 40 46 Wilson 44 53 Jefferson 39 52 Lincoln 39 76 Roosevelt 37 64 Lincoln 42 48 Marshall 36 78 Benson 25 68 Cleveland 33 68 Franklin 56 66 Madison 45 57 Wilson 48 55 Jefferson 49 Basketball comes back Holding up the standards set by previous teams at Grant, the JV and Frosh teams continued to dominate the PIL. The JV boys, coached by Robert Kennewell, and the freshman team, coached by Gary Roy, have led their teams to impressive seasons by defeating most of their opponents by more than twenty points. Coach Kennewell, a former three-year varsity basketball player for Grant, claimed that his team’s success was partly credited to “their super attitudes.” The players hinted that the desire to win and the competition played key roles in determining how hard they worked. Coach Kennewell’s G-men had so much talent that chosinga best player turned out to be quite a task. Sophomore Tim Kasper expressed his opinion by saying, “Troy Tyler is the best player because he works hard on rebounding. He’s good on defense, and scores well.” The JV’s best game came when they played Marshall. “They didn’t score for the first seven minutes. I seriously thought they wouldn’t score,” claimed Coach Kennewell. Some people, on the other hand, felt the Jefferson game was the best. “We just played an all-around great game,” exclaimed sophomore Steve Johnson. The freshmen, as always, had one of the best team’s in the PIL. They ended their season with a near-perfect record. In every game they scored a considerable amount of points. The reason this team excelled was, as Coach Roy pointed out, “Offense!” In addition, the freshmen’s inspiration level was exceptionally high this year. T.G. Bot-ton proved to be, as Ali Dirks insisted, “the little spark plug for the team.” Nevertheless, under all the high scores and fast breaks there must be teamwork. Commenting on how his team worked together, freshman Shawn Briggs said, “Most of the time we work good together, but sometimes people get greedy with the ball.” This never really caused a problem after Coach Roy voiced his opinion on the importance of teamwork.

There seemed a general consensus that being a part of the whole had been a worthwhile experience. The players worked together to achieve victory. “We strove as a team, reaching for the same goal, encouraging each other, and if we didn’t win, at least we tried,” enthused Elizabeth Nichols. Concerning conflicts that come up during the season, Coach Brenda Skinner declared that she “doesn’t always know when conflicts are going on between members” but she has tried to “help the girls understand that personal problems end when they walk into the gym.” Skinner, commenting on a player’s chances of making varsity, related that “it depended on how much they work on improving their skills over the summer.” To motivate the team into action she generated good attitudes in practice which carried over to the games. Liz Bowden and Elizabeth Nichols concurred on the idea that the most ex- 138 JWFrosh Women's Basketball citing game was against Wilson. Though they lost, the game was so close, with only one point difference between the two scores, that the air was filled with tension. The freshman team completed their season with the exceptional record of 16-0. showing that they did indeed have what it took to be at the top. They tried to stay away from having “stars.” Claimed Coach Jeff Gamble, “the whole team is valuable.” Overall, Gamble felt that “the students have molded together well. ”We have a lot of talent on the team,“ added one freshman player. Besides working at and aquir-ing new skills, to be a strong member of a team, an athlete must also understand her talent well enough to utilize it on the court. The player must be ready when the game starts. Said Gamble ’’the girls realize thier capability and they show it as they walk out onto the court.“ Every player has her own reason for wanting to be a part of a team when it involves hard work and dedication, whether it be self-image, social status, or physical fitness.

However, first year head wrestling coach Jim Conway did send six wrestlers to the state championship. The competing wrestlers were Hiag Brown, Ben Walsh, and AJ Bannon, Tom Jones, Mike Miller, and Bobby Knebel. State wrestling champion, Hiag Brown, stated,“A wrestler needs determination, a never-quit attitude, and has to go into a match aggressively.” Conway was pleased with his team of experience grapplers and newcomers. He suggested that even though the team placed third, “We still haven’t realized our potential. It’s my job to make these great athletes into great wrestlers.” Matt Roberts, the team’s heavyweight, joked, “You have to make the guy feel the effects of the floor.” Coaches Romeilo Salas and Bob Doltar assisted Conway by helping him coach the freshmen and JV players, but also worked with the varsity team. Mike Miller said of the assistants, “The two made a good combination with Doltar’s experience and Romeilo’s skill.” AJ Bannon summed up the reason for the team’s success in only one word, “Unity.” In an interleague match against Sunset, AJ. Bannon is declared a victor by the referee. WRESTLING COACHES — Bob Doltar, Jim Conway, Romelio Salas Using his weight and momentum to his advantage, Tom Jones takes a Sunset wrestler to the mat.

Coach Wall stated, “It was better than it’s ever been in the 17 years that I’ve been here.” Consequently, expectations were set high for both teams early in the season. High expectations, however, meant hard work. Senior, and four year member Jodi Houghteling outlined the typical practice. “We practice every school day from 3 to 5pm at the Oregon Athletic Club. At first Mrs. Wall stressed stroke technique, and then added workouts for speed.” Sarah Belcher added, “Conditioning and discipline are emphasized by Coach Wall.” Despite a lack of crowd support the swim team gave it’s all. “Most of the school fails to recognize swimming for the difficult sport it is,” stated Doug Demien. “No one but rally, timers, swimmers and relatives show' up at meets.” Senior Jason Palmer added that “crowd support, especially from students, would have helped a great deal.” But even without it the women finished with a 10 and 1 record, and the men with an 8 and 2 standing in the PIL. Coach Jan Wall deserves a good deal of credit for motivating the swimmers. Rachel Coyle seemed to echo the thoughts of the other team members when she said, “I think Mrs. Wall is a great coach in every sense of the word. She’s demanding, fair, and encouraging.” Mrs. Wall commented, saying, “I love the swim team and the kids,” proudly adding, “My kids never quit.” Heait pounding, Scott Kelly swiftly dives from the starling block as the gun goes oft'.

Swimming 163 Track ends Practicing for more than two hours on a daily basis, from mid-March to the end of May, paid off for the men’s track teams. Losing only to Benson in P1L competition, the varsity ranked number one in the city. Nine men competed on the state level including Matt Roberts, Rick Mestler, Aaron Fentress, Aaron Henry, Stan Roberts, Brian England, Dell O’Neal, Damascus Hopes and William Shephard. These men’s achievements brought Grant to eighth place in the state meet. The four runners in the mile-relay team, Fentress, Henry, England, and Stan Roberts, culminated their high school track career by taking first place at the state competition hours before their commencement ceremony on May 31. As in all sports, great achievements in track and field for the varsity depend on hard work for more than one season. Grant’s JV also put in their time, and went undefeated in overall PIL competition. The relay team imitated the varsity performance by speeding to first place in the city. But for most of the team members being the best was only one part of the satisfaction of the sport. Sophomore champions Josh Kreinberg commented, “The comradeship that exists between athletes is great!” The freshman team, the foundation of Grant’s burgeoning track dynasty, placed sixth in city competition and the frosh relay team joined their JV counterparts in the PIL winner’s circle.

The varsity cleaned up championships in dual meet, the city relays and the city meet, taking first place three times over. In addition, they sent nine competitors to eight events at the state tournament, many of them underclassmen. At state, the 400-meter relay team of Yolanda Lampkin, Miriam (Kay Kay) Waller, Lisa Carter and Jenine Macon placed second. The JV team imitated the varsity’s performance by winning their dual meet championship and taking third place in city relays and the city meet. Senior, Gina Garnero named some reasons for the team’s overall success: “New coaches really helped and we were supportive of each other, becoming a dedicated team.” Dedication to do one’s best figured high in the team’s achievements at all levels, as freshman Amy Guptill described. “I started out running the 1500-meter, and changed to the 3000. I improved my time at each meet and reached my goal by running my fastest time at the city meet.” Beyond the satisfaction of achieving excellence, the women’s track team also counted supportive attitudes and new friendships as part of the season’s success. State competitor, Lisa Carter explained, “ Even though we didn’t know everyone’s name, we felt as if we were all friends. Everyone got along and the competion for other schools just made us work harder.” Summing up the feelings of all the members of the women’s track team, JV and varsity, junior Jennifer Birt said, “This was the best sports season I’ve had. I made many friends.” Senior Lisa Gabriel uses great effort and determination heaving the discus across the field.

The team made it all the way to the state playoffs despite the fact that there were not very many players who had had varsity experience. Coach Johnson commented, “Many of our good varsity players from past years had to be replaced by JV players so there was a good mix of experienced and inexperienced players.” The team’s main goal was to win. They set their goal to win enough games so they could go to the state playoffs and that’s exactly what they did. Junior Tobv Henderson stated, “I benefited from being in a winning experience and from developing a winning attitude.” 168 Baseball By the end of the season the players had become more team oriented and less individualized. But even though their team unity was strong, conflicts did arise. The most major conflict was that of tobacco chewing. Two of the players who chose to break the rules and chew tobacco were suspended for two weeks. The second problem, money, was easily handled. The team raised money for uniforms and equipment by putting on their annual pancake breakfast. They sold tickets to this event which raised to about eight hundred dollars. Unfortunately, a lot of games were cancelled because of rain. Senior John Farnum explained, “Baseball isn’t like football or basketball when you always have to play.” The game schedule had to be altered quite a few times because of the wet weather but all in all they had a good season. Junior Joe McFerrin keeps an eye on the pitcher as he jogs down the base line. Opponents prepare for the hard-hitting McFerrin while he swings with outstanding form.

Weather slows season Bad weather and low turn-out pitched a tough season to JV and freshmen baseball. Although each team won two games PIL league competition, players gained experience and enjoyed some memorable games. Sophomore, Randy Peterson remarked, “I liked the Madison game because I was playing against many people I knew.” His teammate David Richards remembered the Wilson game: “ We were behind and made a comeback. Although we lost, it was a close one.” First baseman for theJV, Sean Carson said the Jefferson game was the one he would remember for more personal reasons. “I hit three out four times at bat.” Reasons given for the slow season were included rain-outs and as Richards explained, “By the end of the season we only had eight sophomores and one freshman left onJV.” The weather also worked against the freshman team, but the season taught them some valueable lessons. Michael Woods explained, “Out pitching staff wasn’t too good and out errors beat us.” But teammate Matt Reddick remembered one of their wins: “The Lincoln game was a good one. It was close, and we finally won!” 170 JV Frosh Baseball Returning the ball to the pitcher, the Grant's catcher is confident the next swing will spell a strike-out. In an attempt to slam one into right field, a Grant batter takes a mighty swing at the ball. JV Frosh Baseball 171 Energy hits rain Have you ever tried to focus on a small white ball in continuous rain? Grant softball teams managed to slug their way through the season, despite the unfortunate weather conditions. The varsity level finished with 6 wins and 9 losses in the PIL, while the JV team ended with an even more impressive record of 12-3 and one tie. Head coach Brenda Skinner explained, “We had three rain-out games, and I think it really hurt us.” The tough competition didn’t get the teams down; they were full of energy from the beginning. Practices lasted for a few hours each day with one or two games a week. Senior Kelli Berg felt the second time facing Wilson was her most memorable game: “We made a very professional-looking double play. It was unbelievable!” Each team member contributed a great deal to the season. An extremely essential player was junior Wendy Shelton, who made the All-City team. Senior Laurie Thorpe, and juniors Patty Feiland and Heidi Hornstein were among the PIL players who received honorable mention. Many team members agreed Thorpe was definitely inspirational to them throughout the season. TheJV team didn’t choose one outstanding player because most worked equally hard. Catcher Nancy Fulton remarked, “We played as a team; everyone needed each other to play their best.” “We gave it a shot and had fun,” concluded shortstop Feiland. Instead of ending off the year with the traditional pizza party, a pot luck was held at Laurelhurst Park where each player brought something scrumptuous!

Although most of the team members had experience playing the game before coming to Grant, sophomores Shea Hoagland and Darcy Southard have been playing for only two years. Southard, currently ranked third in singles competition at Grant, described her practice schedule, “ I play everyday during the season and a little bit during the summer.” Personal achievement and the complex interplay of the doubles match were also factors in satisfaction for most team members. As sophomore Randy Bourquein explained, “I prefer playing doubles with my partner Nick Paulson. It’s not as intense as football.” Senior Darren Fleener, ranked number one in doubles competition with his partner Fred Gast agreed. “ I like the challenge of playing doubles; it’s fun!” However, the intensity of one-on-one competition was also a satisfying experience for some. As senior, Gast described, “The intense competition was great factor in my decision to play tennis, but 1 beleive that hitting a nice, clean shot gives me one of the greatest feelings a person could ever have.” 174 Tennis Running and stretching for an elusive forehand, Darrin Fleener prepares to smash the hall hack to his unsuspecting opponent.

Although the weather was not outstanding, golfers had a inspiring season. The girls finished third in the PIL behind Franklin and Wilson and the boys won the duel meet competition, losing only to Wilson in district, and qualified for the state playoffs. “The boys golf team had a very successful season,” commented junior team member Erik Jason. The men’s team members attributed most of the team’s success to junior, Kevin Newborne, but Newborne com- mented, “The team was very consistent this year.” Peter Disciascio also remarked, “We all scored well. That’s what got us to the state playoffs.” According to Mr. Jones, the women’s coach, “Wilson was our toughest opponent and Molly Lynch was our most consistent player.” Though the team finished with a 7-6 record, Lynch was ranked second in PIL competition and qualified for the state tournament. “ As a whole, I feel everyone shot lower than they did last year,” exclaimed senior Amani Housen.

The famed two-some, Wendy McFadden and Inga Shelton, take a break during warm-ups to say, “Cheese!” 178 Gendrills Expectations set high The high-stepping Gendrills had an ap-plaudable season this year. The 24 member team, consisting of 23 dancers and manager Jennie Snow, did very well in both competition and all other performances. At the Tigard competition, “Grant”, as team captain Stephanie Henely so grandly put it, “just swept the competition.” The Gendrills danced their hearts out, and took first place, costume award and inspection. At the annual Dance Team Classic at the Memorial Colesium Grant was honored with the title of most original. In February the City trophy was once again presented to the Gendrills, for the sixth year in a row. And finally at the State competition, Grant placed third in the small division. Captain Felecia Travis felt “for such a new team we did extremely well.” and she was right. The team started out this year with only six returning girls, and 17 new members, and proved that experience isn’t a necessity, but hard-work and talent are. Of course the glory didn’t come easy; a lot of hardwork, determination,and time went into every performance. The Gendrills practiced eleven hours a week, and usually more before a competition. Training began for some of the members even before the school year began. The girls attended a dance camp for a week in Ontario Canada to improve their dancing skills, and prepare for the year ahead. Practice and performances wouldn’t have been possible, however, without a third factor, and that is the choreographer, Marilyn Rueck, and the advisors, Catherine George and Muriel Swanson. Mrs. Rueck devoted eleven years to the team as choreographer, and left Grant this year with a winning memory. Two-year member Lorie Packham truthfully expressed the general feeling of the team when she said, “Marilyn was really tough, she worked us hard, and made us better dancers. Her determination sparked us all, and I love her for it.” Mrs. George was the advisor for the team until her retirement mid-way through the year, but she still attended all of their performances even after leaving the school. Muriel Swanson was like a new recruit as advisor following George. “She was so willing to do anything... she was real enthusiastic and involved with the team,” according to three-year member Amy Schnell. But perhaps more important than maintaining Grant’s winning tradition is what the girls gained from participating and cooperating as a team. Freshman Markelle Kuhn said, “Gendrills helped me to organize my time, and schedual my activities around practices.” Senior Stephanie Henely added “discipline, responsibility, leadership and patience were qualities I improved by being on Gendrills.” Gendrills 179 Cassie Demry, Tonya Dickens, Angelique Bates, Mario Dishman, and other students spend time listening to silver medalist, Judy Brown, from the Olympics.

Hundreds of students have asked themselves that question at least once during their high school years, usually as the saga of a student’ begins with the deafening ring of an alarm clock. “I just hate getting out of my nice, warm bed each morning to come to school in the ’nice’ Portland weather, remarked junior Shea Park. Her feelings were echoed by many Grantonians. Each morning students prepared themselves for a day of tedious learning and incessant socializing. “Getting ready included crawling out of bed and into the shower, getting dressed, and grabbing some Pop Tarts, explained junior Sara Gannon. More fortunate students traveled by car, but most had to exercise their feet. Once Grantonians arrived at school, they slowly dragged themselves to class where they were actually expected to concentrate on their studies and lectures. The student teacher relationship was important to students hoping for good grades. Sophomore Darci Southard confessed, “They tell me what to do and I try to be friends with them. Some I can talk to, but with others, it’s impossible! After school, time was filled with various activities, including the endless socializing. “I like practicing my saxophone, talking on the phone, and of course watching cartoons, declared senior Richard Ellis. Unfortunately, most teachers insisted on assigning homework each night which interfered with the essential social life of students. What about life on the weekends? Freshman Markelle Kuhn stated, “I usually try to get together with friends from other schools, since I don’t see them during the week. Senior Richie Corbin replied, ‘‘During the day I either relax or go to work, but at night I ’hit the town’! It’s not that bad being a student, but I wish I was an upper classman, said freshman Tim Smith. Gannon felt numb!

the most dreaded task to many Grantonians? HOMEWORK! The majority of the student body shared the same feelings. Homework is a part of each student’s daily schedule. Whether one chooses to complete assignments or not is a different story. Sports, plays, clubs, organizations, jobs, and other activities limit time to study. It is usually not until late afternoon or evening that students actually sit down and ’hit the books’! Each class appears to have a different outlook on homework. Freshman Beth Blumeklotz replied, Most freshmen are just starting to adjust to the increase in homework.’’ “Numerous sophomores look for the easiest way to do as little as possible, but the realization of doing homework has entered their minds,” summarized sophomore Drew Voth. Maturity has arrived! Many juniors discover that earning better than satisfactory grades is extremely important. Most do their work with the idea of going to a prestigious college; not too many make it,” remarked junior Cathy Konsella. Finally, there are two common types of seniors. “Some feel homework as total waste of time and have much better things to do; others work their hardest just to graduate,” informed senior David Lower. Then there were those students who continued to complete their assignments and earned commendable grades. Some students claimed that their study habits have changed since they enrolled at Grant. I waste less time and I get right down to work.” Explained sophomore Jeri Reid. Freshman Ralph Shuping stated, “I do a lot more now that I’ve done before.” When students were asked how they felt when they are finished studying, the answers resulted with basically the same emotions. Sophomore Jason Stevens sighed, I’m sick and tired of school.” Junior Will Lupton complained, “I am mentally exhausted.” What are the results of their studies? Junior Sonja Knud-son replied, “Despite my tough classes, I’ve managed to earn at least a three point GPA throughout my first three years.” “No comment!” declared senior Sheri Mills. 202 Feature Smile!

Addressing a Labor Day rally attended by thousands of workers. President Aquino declares sweeping changes in labor laws. The remains of one of the crew of the Space Shuttle Challenger is carried from a jet to awaiting hearses at Dover Air Force Base to be prepared for burial in accordance with the wishes of the individual family. The Live Aid symbol captures the spirit of several musical concerts held on behalf of needy people around the world. With his customary gesture, the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh bids a welcome farewell to Oregonians. 218 Feature f Crash saddens Grant The 1985-86 school year was an eventful one. From the joyous to the tragic, news items affected Grantonians in many different ways. The most tragic news story of the school year was the explosion of the space shuttle containing six astronauts and civilian schoolteacher Christa McAuliffe on January 28. Grantonians were shocked and saddened by this catastrophic event. Junior Jeff Thorpe thought that the explosion was ‘‘terrible. It never should have happemed with all that special equipment,” while junior Laura Smith thought it was ‘‘really sad. I felt sorry for the teacher’s family. Celebrities used their influence and talents for good causes this year, with such mega-events as Live Aid, Farm Aid, Comic Relief, and various songs by hit artists raising money for the poor, the homeless, and other needy groups. Senior Andy Bailey believed that “it was a good idea, but they should have worried about feeding the people in the United States and Great Britain since countries which can’t even feed their own people shouldn’t attempt to feed the people in other countries.” Two powerful leaders fled their strongholds in disgrace this year. The Bhagwan finally left Antelope, or Rajneeshpuram, surrounded by conflicts with Ma Anand Sheela and many of his other top advisers. Senior Lisa Gabriel expressed the sentiments of many Oregonians: Tm glad he found somewhere that would take him so he wouldn't stay here.” The Filippino president, Fernando Marcos also fled his country after a con-toversial election race against Corazon Aquino. He found sanctuary in the US, leaving behind him a legacy of his wife’s 3,000 pairs of shoes. Freshman Stephani Onisko was “glad that Aquino won because I think it’s neat that the people had the power to push out someone they didn’t like.” Feature 219 Fine Family Dining 2651 E Burnside Portland.

PORTLAND 281-1800 lnd«x Advertism«nt 239 Are we having fun yet? That’s really for you to decide. I certainly had fun: at the basketball tournament; at graduation; on the last day of school. But many other days weren’t so much fun: the weekend before Conover’s term paper was due; nights when I had five tests the next day; and, of course, yearbook deadline days. For everyone else, the year was different. As a senior, my year was probably very different from the adjustment period the freshmen went through. And for different people, different things are fun. Maybe there’s someone out there who asks for nothing more on a Friday afternoon than to finish an exciting batch of homework. I doubt it, but there might be. All in all, I think this was a better year than most. For me, anyway. Maybe being a senior had something to do with it. And, of course, nothing can compare to the joys of being editor-in-chief. Right Ms. Demien? The women’s soccer team finally had a winning season, and I made it through Conover alive. I wish all the underclassmen out there luck. And of course, I hope that everybody has fun.
