'NM wr WAITING THE RAIN OUT patiently are loyal fans of the Varsity Football team. The downpour continued steadily throughout the game, hampering the M'Men's performance. They were defeated by Franklin, 9-O. PORTLAND ENJOYED a rare snowfall in January which resulted in a one-day school closure. Nevertheless, students had plenty of time during school hours to enjoy the snow. Here, Sophomore Rich Belleque and Junior Curt Slocum take to the courtyard to engage in a rowdy snowball finht. Introduction Q9 Oregon, rain or shine l'm glad I live in Oregon, stated Sophomore Jim Hilsen- teger. lt's clean, green, and smells good. From lush rain forests to sage-brush covered deserts, Oregon truly does pro- vide a wide enough range of geographic areas to satisfy any- one's vacation desires. Two of the most popular summer vacation sites were Sun- river, a lush fifty-five hundred acre resort near Bend, and Kah- nee-ta lndian Reservation, located near Madras. For the enthusiastic rafter, the Columbia and Clackamas Rivers provided the ideal challenge. Many Marshall students flocked to an area on the Clackamas called High Rocks during the summer to take advantage of the one-hundred degree plus temperatures during the month of August. The hot weather gave me a chance to get out to the river more often with my friends, remarked Junior Crystal Hoffman. Oregon's beaches offered vacationers a chance to dig their toes gingerly into the chilly Pacific, or to enjoy a morning jog along the beach. Crabbing is in abundance along the Coast during December, and Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach is famous for its tide pool of sea anemone, mussels and star fish. For decades, Oregon has been known as the City of Parks to many. This is because of seventy-two hundred acres statewide, full of roses, trees, and wide open spaces suitable for any type of recreational activity. Portland's Washington Park housed the perennial Rose Gardens which bloomed each June, accompanying the annual Rose Festival. Each winter, skiers by the thousands converged to the mountains. Timberline Lodge, Multipor Ski Bowl, and Mt. Hood Meadows were three of the most popular ski resorts. Although a day on the mountain could be very costly, Senior Mark Homayoun explained, Skiing is a good hobby. Unless you've experienced it, you don't realize how worthwhile it is. lt's a great accomplishment to meet the challenge skiing presents. Mt. Hood is Oregon's tallest peak, towering ll,245 feet above sea level. Hiking and mountain climbing fans satisfied their needs in the Cascade Range. Logging was a major industry in the region, and fishing for commercial use as well as for sport was plenti- ful. Oregon's Cascades also contained one of the seven won- ders of the world, Crater Lake. Formed 6600 years ago by a violent volcanic eruption, the pure-water lake is a masterpiece of nature. No visit to Oregon was complete without a tour through the Oregon Caves, located in Cave Junction. A busy tourist site, the Caves have been visited by many Marshall students. lt's exciting to walk through huge caves that were formed millions of years ago, stated Senior Mike Flye. Oregon is also famous for its torrent of rainstorms that pelt the state in March, April, May, etc. However, if the rain wasn't so generous, the Beaver State would lack many of the factors which lead up to the fact that . . . WE WOREGON!!!

sonalities alities were and school and Yet more importantly dual's possessed its own unique set teristics. Different groups around school allowed students to ex- press their own individualism. For example, a Thespian could become Macbeth, a vagabond, or a princess in a matter of seconds. Being involved in drama productions is great because I can portray different people and learn more about myself, commented Senior David Spencer. Another area known for its charismatic personalities was athletics. Teams recognized these enthusiastic peers by presenting them with most inspirational awards. Yet personalities shown through even when they weren't contained in a group. Smiles, laughing faces and close friendships were in abundance around Marshallg they sym- bolized the true meaning of a desirable personality. Spend- ing time with my friends is important because it gives me the chance to forget about school problems for awhile and have some fun, remarked Junior Matt Hill. Throughout high school, personalities tended to change and mature. For instance, many freshmen who started out apprehensive and shy could turn out to be some of the most spirited people in their class. When l was a frosh, I was really scared to get involved, but then l realized that by doing so, l made lots of new friends and got much more out of school, commented Senior Lyn Thompson. Everyone probably had aspects of their personality that they would have liked to exchange for a more flattering trait, but these were the qualities that made a person so unique. At Marshall, this uniqueness set our school apart from others. By displaying our personalities amongst our- selves and our peers, we set the mood of our school. ln 1982, Marshall's tone had many varying ingredients, includ- ing enthusiasm, togetherness and the desire to win. SAYING CHEESE with wide smiles are Seniors Mike Kuiawa and Chris Schloe. Senioritis struck early in January, leaving many members of the class of '82 with high hopes for the future. SHARING A JOKE in the foyer with friends is Senior Darren Johnson. The foyer was a popular place to gather during lunch and free time.
