President Sets Goals “I was really glad! But kind of scared because I knew it would be a lot of responsibility, and that people would expect a lot from me, Krista Anderson mentioned when describing her feelings after she had won the election for A.S.B. president. Krista is in a class of her own. Over the years, the position of A.S.B. president has not been popular for female politicians. Proof is that the last female prexy was in 1960 when the position was filled by Adelle Davenport. Adelle graduated in 1960 and went on to Stanford to further her education. She is now the vice president of Human Resources at Woodward and Klyde Consultants in San Francisco. She commented on her past position: “I loved it and I have nothing but fantastic memories of Grants Pass High. To let you know what a small world it is, Phyllis Davenport (Adelle’s mom) was Krista’s second grade teacher, who commented that, “Krista was cute even then, and she had a flair to organize. I could tell just by the way she held herself in her seat.” Commenting on the work involved with the office of student body president, Krista said, “Yeeees! There is always something to do, never a lull.” But for a girl who is on the varsity ski and tennis teams, plays the piano, has applied for six different colleges including Princeton, Stanford, and Lewis and Clark, and has even had an interview with Harvard, there isn’t much time to sit around. What does the future hold for Krista? Right now she’s undecided, but her interests lie in international relations, political sciences, and foreign diplomacy. If the past is any indication of the future, then Krista Anderson-with all her desire, leadership, and enthusiasm-is looking at a very bright future. Governor Vic Atiyeh does the honors of swearing in Krista Anderson to the Education Block Grant Committee.

Special Olympics Bowling Becomes National Endeavor Few athletes garner honors on the state level, let alone reaching national heights, but Vince Mikolavich has attained both with practice and dedication. In the Special Olympics competiton, Vince won the individual bowling championship for the state of Oregon as well as helping his soccer team to the state championship. The soccer competition, held at Pacific University, was held in November, and Vince, along with Curtis Richardson and Doug Mundy, also of G.P.H.S., led the Grants Pass team to the title. Vince won his bowling championship in Coos Bay which qualified him for the National Championships held during July in New Orleans. Winning the state title enabled Vince to take part in a one week bowling clinic with professional bowler Marshall Holman. Vince says he practices once a week at Grants Pass Bowl during his P.E. class. Success has come to Vince due to his hard work and help of his team mates. Vince’s mother, Betty Mikolavich, says, “Vince has had a lot of support from the people he’s involved with-his teachers, his family, and his team mates.’’ Alfie Wilson Erin Wolf Steve Wood Susan Wright Michael Young Not Pictured Boys Eulis Lemons Benjamen Satterfield Girls Joveta Martinez Darren LeMoss Hurshell Smith Locinda Nelson Scott Ashley Jeff McClain Richard Stewart Dawn Bird Trina Padella Andrew Audrey David McMillan Rich Thill Lisa Church Tammy Renfro Scott Brock David Metcalf Thomas Threlkeld Sharon Gaver Rika Sange Patrick Chanley Mike Miller Charles Vernoy Rhonda Gruber Darlene Shaw Kip Clark Tom Minter Vincent Villani Cheryl Harvey Kimberly Umphrey Tom Dutton Bart Mowat Edward Vincent Kathleen Holliday Patricia Valencia Jeff Elmore Dar Nelson Ted Walstrom Heidi Hurtt Diana White Mark Evans John Pearson David Woods Maryann Jischke Lynn Henry Terry Peden Teresa Johnson Patrick James Jeffery Peterso Daneva Kische Robert Johnson Bradley Pitts Rose Lindh Michael Kelly Carlos Rodriquez Teresa Long Seniors 27
