 Settlement Fort Vancouver stretched and flexed its muscles like a man-grown boy. It had become the center for farming and manufacturing, as well as for society and culture, for the vast Pa- cific Northwest. Farms, orchards, and pasture- lands surrounded it. Nearby mills and shops produced lumber and other goods for local and company use, and for shipment to Alaska, Ha- waii, and California. American settlers arriving at the Fort after long months of living on bare necessities and trekking over plain and mountain, were amazed at the churches, library, school, theater, and per- haps even an invitation to dine at McLoughlin's table, with its fine crystal and silver. Many of them did not want to leave this oasis of civiliza- tion in the midst of the dark fir forests, and settled around the fort. They built houses such as this one, the Covington house. These Amer- icans resented the British control of the area. The Oregon country began to become American- ized through sheer weight of numbers. r 97

Representative Ann Mickelwait Representative Sarann Stevens In debt, but with high hopes of a better future, the class of '65 began its second year at the Bay. After contributing to the gold back-drop fund during the 1962-63 school year, the juniors, with Paul Hedengren's guidance, had to sell concessions, mega- phones, and booster stickers to get out of the hole. Headed by President Dennis Gillingham, the juniors put on an assembly entitled A Typical Day on T.V.”, threw eggs at the class party, and sponsored the annual Junior-Senior Prom at the Quay Restaurant. Penny Poyfair, activities-coordinator, directed the junior class assembly with help from such class members as Doug Whitlock, Elly Fendrich, Jeanne Foster, and Sylvia Ellefsen. The class party, held on the 11th of March, was chairmaned by Dave Lockhart, junior vice president. Donuts and milk were served as refreshments. The Quay Restaurant was the site for this year's Junior- Senior Prom for the first time in Bay's history. All other Proms have been held in the school cafeteria. Ann Pence, secretary; and Ann Mickelwait and Sarann Stev- ens, class representatives completed the officers for the class of '65. Activities Coordinator Penny Poyfair Vice-President Dave Lockhart Counselors Mr. Suckling, Mrs. Barter Mr. Len Suckling and Mrs. Opal Barter, jun- ior class counselors, led the class through their second year at the Bay. Along with the Coun- selor's classroom assignments, face to face inter- views commanded the majority of their time. Besides counseling duties, Mr. Suckling main- tains study conditions in three study halls, and Mrs. Barter teaches two classes of Chemistry. The junior class counselors also administered and interpreted aptitude and achievement tests, such as the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test and the Iowa Test of Educational Development. 99
