Pets Take Time; Provide Coinpanionship Demands, demands, demands! With school, par- ents, and friends how could anyone have time for anything else? But many people did. They took th e time to feed, groom, train, and play with that fuzzy little ball in the corner, their pet - and most pets took more than a few minutes per day to care for. My dog Shortie is a real pain, commented Emily Blain, He ' s always running away down the street - and I get to chase after him! But I love him anyway. Cindy Kienitz, who owns one dog and three cats added, I spend a lot of time with my pets. As long as I am at home they ' re in the house keeping me company. I love animals! Many people were not content with the occasional companiship of one or two pets, and kept many more. I have four Salamander larvae, one oppossum, and one pigeon, said Mr. Potvin, a science teacher at North. I have two dogs, two cats, a rabbit, and six fish to play with and feed, added Chris Breischwert. Though the care of pets took much time and effort, they were still loved, for they were a source of compan- m 1 ■ 5 m ionship. • • Holding his oppossum up by the tail, Mr Potvin. a science teacher at North, explains how he obtained such an unusual pet. Opie Awesome was a gift from a veterinarian friend. He now resides m the back room of room 200. 1 ' - Merrill Muschamp Elizabeth Navarrete Julie Neal Stephen Negus Rosanne Newell Kimberly Noon Jason Oliver Mark Ontiveros Igmar Ostland Adrian Padilla Jeff Palmer Arthur Parks freshmen 147

Freshmen Freshmen Athletes Shine Freshman lettermen? To some this might have seemed impossible, but for others it became a reality. Thirteen of North ' s freshmen lettered in varsity sports, ranging from cross country to swimming. It felt really good to letter as a freshman, commented Ellen Strzelewicz. Because many other players were older and more exper- ienced, freshmen found lettering more difficult than they expected. There was a lot of competition between the team members, therefore going up against the older play- ers made it even harder, said Ginger Rhodes. Realizing this, freshmen overcame the obstacles by work- ing harder, practicing more, and giving their all. Chris Breitchwerdt speculated, Even though it may have been hard, it was a lot of fun! The freshmen who lettered during the 1984-85 school year were Chris Breitchwerdt, John Charles, and Al Nei- bles of cross country; Lisa Bunyak, Emily Heath, Mandi Liles, Bianca Lopez, Katie McCarty, Remy Miller (man- ager), Julie Stewart, and Ellen Strzelewicz of girls ' soccer; Ginger Rhodes of softball; Katie McCarty, and Erika Vernlund of swimming. Following a year of hard work, these freshmen looked forward to future seasons. Bianca Lopez concluded, Now that I ' ve made varsity, I look forward to working hard to maintain that position. ... Taking a break from morning workout, frosh letterer Erika Vernlund discusses her stroke with Coach Anderson. Most varsity team members participated in early morning workouts.
