With the help of Coach Tim Simmers, Den- nis Ross, and Gordon Beasley, this was proved true, as they compiled a sea- son record of 7-1 and a league record of 7-0. The Raiders offense, led by running- backs Brett Campbell, Tim Pence, Tony Hartley, and quarterback Tim Eakins, collected an awsome average of 34 points a game, while the defen- sive squad, led by noseguard Dan Col- lins and Rod “Monsterback” Rick, only gave up an average of 5 points per game. But none of this could have hap- pened without the great determination and desire to keep going by the offen- sive and defensive linemen. GREAT JOB RAIDERS. 1. Coach Tim Simmers 2.

The players worked hard in practice and even harder in the games. During practice they did running and blocking drills. They had an overall record of 1-3-1. We hope that next year the J.V. team will succeed. 4. Dave Coliins hustling to the huddle. 5. Gossip session in the huddle. 6. Getting ready for the touchdown.

Mrs. Reid and the team had an exceptional season. The Raiderettes, 12-4 overall, took 2nd place in the league. Mrs. Reid had a freshmen team again this year and all the girls saw quite a bit of playing time. According to her, everyone did some improving throughout the season. After the league season was over, the J.V. Raiderettes held a tourna- ment in which they also placed 2nd. Having 7 sophomores on the team made them strong and will be quite essential for varsity next year and for the freshmen, next year will be an- other good year on J.V. 1.

This year there were six girls who worked very hard to bring this kind of spirit and enthusiasm back to Lost River. These cheerleaders included, freshmen, Billie Jo Buller and Brenda Pearce, sophomore, Brenda Dailey, junior, Lorena Guy, and Sen- iors, Tina Moore and Diana Danosky. There was also another addition to this group and that was the mascot, senior Hedy Tremblay. It was a new experience for all of them and the early morning practices were used to make up new routines and cheers. They all took part in raising money for their uniforms by doing several activities. With the help of their advisor, Karol McGee, each time they cheered our teams on they got better and made it enjoyable for everyone who saw them, but most of all they kept the spirit up for Lost River High School. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8 Billie trying to hide from the camera.

With a league record of 7-5, and a overall record of 12- 10. The Mighty Raiders finished in 3rd Place in the SCL. The Raiders were the only team to defeat the league champs, Chiloquin, who were undefeated in the SCL. Tad Maupin, 1st Team All-League, and Rod Rick, 2nd Team All-League, led the team in scoring and rebounding. Six Seniors will be leaving the team, but they should remain very competitive with the hardworking Juniors and the up- coming Sophomores. 1. Warming up for the game ahead. 2.

The entire season the team was in- consistent, in their practices and performances. For example, Gilch- rist upset the Raiders 69-47, the game was supposed to be a Raider blowout. The following night how- ever, Lost River, the underdog, played an excellent game against Lapine with victory falling barely out of reach in the final seconds of the contest with Lapine winning 52- 51. There was also two freshman games in which the freshmen boys from the J.V. team played. Both games were LR victories against the Bulldogs. Although the records and statis- tics do not show it, the J.V. boys considered the season an extreme success. It was a great learning ex- perience for everyone including first time basketball coach Tim Sim- mers who began doing an excellent job after he got into the groove of things. The teams overall record was 9-11 and in league play it was 4-4.

The team had 5 seniors coming back, two that played some varsity ball last year, and only three new faces. Due to the depth and ex- perience that the Raiderettes had, they managed to maintain the third place position in the SCL almost all season. Their overall record was 11-9. Mr. Swenson and the Raiderettes had a good season this year, and when these girls graduate they will be sin- cerely missed. 1. Coach Mr. Swenson speakes words of wis- dom to the girls. 2.

The girls started out their year by winning a third place tro- phy in the Modoc tournament. The beginning practices were for condi- tioning. As the season went by, coach Miss Skinner, began to ad- vance the skills of the players. Their main defense was a 2-1-2 for- mation. The skills of an effective press were difficult in the begin- ning, however, the team overcame their weakness and forced many turnovers as the season went on. The girls worked well and if they had any conflicts they left them off the court. Not every game was easy, but they pulled through in the final outcome. They never let their spirits down. The team held togeth- er when they were on the court. J. V’s YOUR — 1.

Both teams have been working very hard to make this a good year. The 8th graders lost only three games and the 7th graders lost only two. With the help of their coach Mrs. Ross they finished third in the league.

With coaches Larry Cheyne and Tom Reid, the 7th grade team had a 10-4 season, while the 8th graders pulled off a 1-13 season. Even though this was their first season at Lost River, and they weren’t used to all the action, they still had a memorable season, Jr. RAIDERS — Scotty Cheyne, Denny Paschke, Gary Thompson, and captain Chris Barnes - all averaging about 5”7’ - headed their classes with RAIDER action. The mighty Jr. High team will have a better season next year and hope to continue to do so. “They work hard and put in more effort than ever. Next year will be better,” says coach Reid. Good luck next year! 8th Grade Boys Basketball Front row: P. Gassett. K Moore. A Wanamaker. R Rogers. S Hyatt. T. Cheyne. N. Moore. Back row: Coach Tom Reid. K. Soloman, W. Howe. T Lamb. C. Barnes.

This Jr. High rally squad put a lot of time into their work and have proven this dur- ing their performance at games. Put- ting up with the sweat sore throats was not enough to stop them. They kept the smiles on their faces and spirit in the crowd. Cheerleaders- Jennifer Holl, Sarah Northcraft, Tammie Arnold. Vickie Hornbeck. Jen Bartholomew.

These outstanding runners, jumpers, and throwers placed third in district. They prob- ably could have taken first place if more boys were out for track. This year we lacked depth. Tony Hartley. Brett Campbell. Manny Figeuroa, and Tom Taylor all qualified for state. Both Tom Taylor and Brett Campbell quali- fied in High Jump. Brett Campbell also compet ed in the 300 intermediate hurdle, and long jump, qualifying in both. Manny Figeuroa quali- fied for state in the 400 meters. Tony Hartley qualified in 100, triple jump, and long jump, but unfortunatly. did not go to state due to elgability problems. But he probably would have been very successful dealing from the times which were posted. We are sorry that some of the seniors track team members will be going, but hopefully next year’s freshman will successfully take their place. Team captions Front: T. Taylor. B. Moore. J.

Coming back this year was Dina Cerri, Sherrie Ruisch, Chri- sity Cheyne, and Cathy McLaughlin. Dina’s and Cathy’s specialties consisted of the sprints, and the 440 relay. Christy came back specializing in the hurdles and in the 440 relay. Sherrie was are long jumper, and was also the 3rd person in the 440 relay. We had a lot of newcomers this year. We had two sophomores come out who did not go out as freshmens. They are Sandy Bowman and Jennifer Collins, Jen- nifer competed in the weight events while Sandy did both hurdles. This year we had six freshmen come out for track this year. They are Tracy Maupin, and Merry Jenkins who both high jumped, and Tracy also ran the hur- dles. Angie Watson was our long dis- tance runner. Brenda Perce and Melanie Loper both excelled in the weight events. Brenda’s speciality was the javlion. Our team was small however we man- aged to take half of our team to state, competition. The 440 relay made it to state, so did Tracy Maupin in the high jump, and Cathy also qualified in the 100. We had a really great season even though we had only 10 girls. Thanks to the coaching of Jim Libby. 1. Brenda Perce looking very enthusiastic about her next throw. 2.

They have reason to be proud of cooperating with each other. Sally VanAcker has our con- gratulations for making a winning team of these outstanding athletes. For the 7-8 grade girls track teams, this was mainly a year for gaining experience with their events and learning what a track meet is all about. The eighth grade girls will be welcomed to the Lost River varsity team. Coach Libby will use them to Lost River’s advantage. Coach VanAcker enjoyed being with the girls and will convert this years seventh grade girls into inspiring runners. 1. Gary Thompson and Chris Barnes warm up while Sally VanAcker goofs off. 2.

The baseball team had many bright moments this year. Tim Eakins and Gary Gasset pitched no-hitters, and Larry Chenye led the team in home runs. Also, going with the bright moments are the dark ones. Dennis Barnes devel- oped arm problems that caused some panic in the pitching staff. The team started off well with a record of 6-0, but started slacking off by losing 4 in a row. The team is still in contention for the Southern Cascade League Title. In order for Lost River to win league Lapine would have to loose one of their remaining games and Bonanza would have to loose two. Lost River would have to win the remaining of their games. The senior players that will be missed because of their talents are: T. Eakins who pitched and played short stop, T. Maupin who played center field, T. Woodhouse who played left and right field, L. Cheyne who played first base, G. Heaton played third base, D. Barnes who pitched and played centerfield, R. Valenzuela played all time catcher, R. Rick played second base, while P. Gearhart, and B. Haskins played left field and Brent was also designated hitter. Lost River defeated Bonanza 2-0 on a two hit shut-out by Dennis Barnes. They will play Lapine to determine who will go to the single A playoffs. Lapine lost to Sacred Heart 9-7 which place Lost River and Lapine in a first place tie, with records of 8-4. In the final play-off game with Lapine, Lost River was defeated, and did not advance to state play-offs. The team would like to give special thanks Marlin Barnes, who made the indoor pitchers mound.

Over the last four years at LRHS the class has been known for its “energy and enthusiasm” in school activi- ties. Much of the class has been involved in athletics and seem to be excited about their accomplishments. The Seniors seem to be working well with the Freshman this year. The Senior class has achieved a higher academic standard than other classes in the past - Good Job! As a result, many Seniors are busy filling out scholarship forms. As Freshman, we knew what it felt like to be at the bottom. Our Sophomore year brought us the realization that we were not going to die. Our Junior year brought us to the Prom. All worked hard and realized we would soon have the throne- Seniors. As Seniors we did our best to fulfill the legends surrounding our reputa- tion!

Miss Joanne Skinner-Department Head. 2. Mr. Jim Hunger-English, German. 3. Mrs. Elberta Nichols-Media Specialist. 4. Mr. Lance Honda-English 5. Mrs. Nichols has been in charge of the library since the opening of Lost River in 1970. She has done a superb job in teaching students the importance of a library. 6. From looking at the faces, Mr. Honda seems to have 7th grade English students intrigued by his wit. 7. Each day, someone sees Mr. Hunger at his typewriter. He does as excellent job preparing for the many classes he instructs. 8. Mr. Hunger takes time to brief the students of films. 9. Hello. Miss Skinner. You look very suspicious standing there with your grade book. 10. Miss Skinner did an excellent job teaching students how to prepare and deliver speeches. Tim Holl, a 7th grader, delivers his Serious Interpretation Tim received a blue ribbon for his efforts. LANGUAGE ARTS English is a 4 year course at Lost River and the teachers for the classes are Mr. Honda, Mr. Hunger, and Miss Skinner. Mr. Honda is the new face in the group this year. He teaches primarily to the 7th and 8th graders, but does have high school classes that he instructs. Mr. Hunger teaches literature, speech, and a class that is new at Lost River, German. Miss Skinner has mostly writing classes, and she is also Head of Department for Language Arts. These teachers enjoy what they do, and this makes it nicer for the students. Miss Joanne Skinner was born in the Klamath Valley Hospital on March 25th, 1954. The Klamath Valley Hospital has been turned into what is now the welfare department. She went to school at Henley for all of her twelve years. In highschool she was very active in sports and clubs. She played girls powder puff football, and girls basketball. The clubs she was most active in was drama, band, honor society, science club, the foreign language club, student council, G.A.A., and the year book staff. She has 3 brothers and no sisters, and is the baby of the family. Her oldest brother is a veterinarian in Portland, and his name is Steve. Her middle brother is Scott and he is a musician in San Diego California. The youngest of the three is Ken, and he owns a liquor store in McMinville. When asked why she became a teacher she said “The devil made me do it,” but really she enjoys teaching us little ‘angels.’ I enjoy teaching both the High School and the Jr. High level. There are many differences in the two. I think that the Jr. high students have many challenges to focus on a lot more than high school students, but they can also be fun to be around. The high school students on the other hand can be “a bit more serious, because they can see the end of their high school days. The major thing she doesn’t like about Lost River is the, “frequent complaceny, of some of the students.” They frequently spend more time and energy complaining about work that they have been asked to do, than they spend actually completing the work.” She would like to think the students like her but, “her main goal as a teacher is to help students learn.” Miss Skinner likes to do many things. For fun she likes to visit her friends, go to the movies, and watch the Portland Trailblazers on T.V. She also likes to read, write, knit, crochet, write short stories, and poetry. She is very active in the church, and goes to the Klamath Lutheran church. She is on the board of trustees and seems to really like it. Every summer for the past five years, she went to summer school at Portland State University, but this summer she plans to do something different, such as, “bum around on the Oregon Coast and start writing a book”. Miss Skinner’s main goal in life is to do “something everyday to make someone else happy.” Lisa Heaton thinks “Miss Skinner is an excellent teacher and elaborates on subjects well so that every individual student can understand. Not only is she a good teacher but she is a good friend to all students. She relates to students really well by getting involved in all activities wheather they’re school oriented or just plain fun. She has got a great sense of humor and the times being around her, whether it be in class, on basketball trips, or when just socializing, is always full of fun and laughter.” Angie Morris said “Miss Skinner is a very neat teacher. All of her students learn a lot and really enjoy her. What she likes about her classes is that Miss Skinner mixes school work with pleasure. You’re never bored because her personality, and sense of humor.” 10a English 69 Mr. Dennis Ros was born in Fairview, Oklahoma. He is 31 years old and he likes to fish and hunt in his spare time. He said he became a teacher because of the influence of his parents. He chose the subject of History because of the interesting philosophies that Mr. Paul Barkman taught. He went to college in Weed, Sacramento, and Ashland. He enjoys teaching, but not the extras that go along with it, such as the long hours of grading papers, doing progress reports, and much more. He likes being married. One advantage is that he does not have to eat his own cooking. Mr. Ross’s goals are to become a successful teacher, be happy with life, and retire at an early age. His retirement plans include much fishing and go elk hunting at least one time. SOCIAL STUDIES There are three Social Studies classes this year. The teachers are Mr. Ross, Mr. Sim- mers and Mr. Rollins. Mr. Rollins is here at Lost River from the Merrill Jr. High. He teaches both Jr. High and High School So- cial Studies. Mr. Simmers teaches High School Federal Government Social Studies, and Mr. Ross teaches both U.S. History and World History. Mr. Rollins and Mr. Simmers both teach Mathematics along with Social Studies. Mr. Simmers teaches High School Math such as Algebra, and Mr. Rollins teach- es Jr. High Math. So both Mr. Rollins and Mr. Simmers keep pretty busy. 4 } MUSIC DEPARTMENT At Lost River Mr. Reid teaches the music classes which include: choir and band. He teaches the 7th and 8th grade music and band along with doing the high school classes. All of the kids enjoy being able to take part in the music classes and Mr. Reid enjoys teaching them. Mr. Reid has been at Lost River for three years. His main classes are P.E. and music. He went to school at Bonanza and he really enjoyed high school. He learned to play the piano in the 4th grade and then took it up as a senior. He enjoys most music except some country-west- ern. He enjoys the kids at Lost River, he thinks that they are easy to talk to. Mr. Reid gets along with all of the faculty, and he said that they all try to help each other out. Mr. Reid stated that he thinks the different athletic departments are very organized, and the Raiders are strong in every program. After Mr. Reid retires, he plans to visit relatives, travel, and do car- pentry. Mr. Reid’s favorite TV shows are Ripley’s Believe it or Not, because he learns new things, and Dynasty because he has gotten hooked on it. In the sum- mer he does farm work, cuts and hauls wood, hauls hay, and travels. On week- ends Mr. Reid plays basketball, baseball, watches TV and plays with his children. For entertainment he likes to play all sports. Mr. Reid likes music, and he hopes others do to. Music 71 There are always people behind the scenes to keep the ball rolling, and at Lost River those people are the cooks, janitor, aides, and the principals. These people work together towards keeping the school clean and in the best atmosphere for the students, that they can attain. Mr. Stahl and Dr. Whitehead are the administrators. Mrs. Taylor, Mrs. Hart and Mrs. Brewer the cooks. Dawn Maupin, Ann Powell and Judy Brewer, Theresa Ross, the aides. And Mrs. Johnson, the dutiful secretary. The school could not run smoothly without the care and dedication of these fine people doing their jobs. The students and faculty appreci- ate all the love and care these individuals have provided for this school. 1. Fran Johnson enjoying her daily work. 2. Principal Mike Stahl flashes a few grins to keep everyone happy. 3. Dr. Pete Whitehead takes over the posi- tion of Counselor Vice-Principal. He’s always smiling, ask anyone. 4.

Faculty 73 !▼ 2 ▼ VOCATIONAL DEPARTMENT The Vocational Education Department emcompasses four subject areas at Lost River. These areas are Home Economics, Business, Metal and Auto Shops and Agriculture. Mrs. Cox has built a strong Business Program which includes classes in Personal Finance. Typing, Bookkeeping, Short- hand and Record Keeping. Many ex-students have returned from college and business jobs and thanked Mrs. Cox for the background they received in her classes. Harvey Santos has geared up his program in the shop department. All students must become experts in the fundamentals of machines before moving to more advanced projects. Waterbeds, gun cabinets, wood stoves, and exquisite furniture are examples of the hardware being pro- duced in the shop areas. As a result of his curriculum, Ivan Brewer is turning out more educated farmers in the areas of Merrill and Malin. Through FFA and Agricultural Science Class, students are becoming more proficient in soil judging, Leadership and animal husbandry. Kathy Biggs has acquired a new area of growth in the Home Ec. Department: The joy of smiling 7th and 8th grade faces during periods 6 and 7. The students are learning about producing various craft projects. These are fine examples of needlework and sewing projects which are displayed in the forum. Mrs. Biggs is not only a home Economics teacher, but she is also a wife and a mother of one. Mrs. Biggs attended High School at Merrill, and was in the first senior class to graduate from Lost River High School. She went to college at OSU, and received a Bachelors and Masters degree in Home Economics. She enjoys teaching very much, because she likes working with younger people. The one thing she wishes is that there was more hours in the day, so she could get more things accomplished. Her hobbies and entertainment outside of school include, sewing, gardening, watching sports (track ) and being with her husband WD, and her daughter Monica. 74 Vocational 1) Harvey Santos- Shop Area 2) Chubbin Cox- Business 3) Kathy Biggs Home Economics 4) Ivan Brewer Agricultural Science 5) Mrs. Biggs provides information on nutritional information 6) Tim Hornbeck and Tim Pence strain to lower bailes of hay to David Pearce.

Mrs. Cox, a vocational teacher at Lost River teaches a variety of different classes. She was born in Lakeview, Oregon and was raised in Klamath Falls. Mrs. Cox has been teaching for 13 years and has taught at one other school besides L.R., which is Bonanza. Mrs. Cox attended Southern Oregon State College for a total of six years, and enjoyed it very much, just as she enjoyed high school. She stated that she occasionally gets frustrated with students, because of apathy or laziness. When the weekend gets here, she catches up on home- work, household chores, and her son’s activities. When she retires, she is considering moving somewhere else as a change of pace. MAKING THINGS HAPPEN 8t Vocational 75 2 a SCIENCE Mr. Swenson is the Biology and Science teacher at Lost River for the High School. He has been at Lost River for 13 years and has enjoyed it very much. If given the opportunity to leave Lost River, he said it would be a tough decision to make. He was born in North Bend, Oregon and attended three different colleges upon graduating from Southern Oregon State College. He now lives in Klamath Falls with his wife and 2 children. He said he would be very uncomfortable if his kids attended Lost River. Mr. Swenson enjoys teaching all the classes he has, and believes that there are some students who like him as a teacher and others who do not. When he retires, he plans on traveling or just sitting at home with his feet propped up and relaxing in the sun snowshine. HEALTH-PHYSICAL EDUCATION 76 Science Lost River has four teachers for the P.E. program this year. They are: Mrs. McGee, Mr. Reid, Mr. Ross, and Mr. Simmers. Mrs. McGee also teaches the health classes. All of these teachers try to keep the kids physically fit and in good shape. The activities they use to do this are: flag football, basketball, jogging, and other excercise tech- niques. The teachers worked hard to make P.E. fun! Lost River has two teachers for Sci- ence. They are Mr. Swenson and Mr. Brewer. Mr. Brewer works with the 7th and 8th graders on basic science, while Mr. Swenson takes it one step further with classes such as; Biology, Adv. Biol- ogy, Chemistry and other classes. They both have made learning about animals and plants fun. 1 Mrs Karol McGee Health. Physical Education. Psychology and Yearbook 2.

John Swenson biting down into a submarine sandwich at the JR SR Banquet Physical Education 77 Mr. Libby is a math teacher and also a track coach at LR. He was born in Central Point, Oregon, and he went to Southern Oregon State College, I asked him what year went best as far as teaching, his reply was, 1982-83. His favorite subject he likes to teach is Algebra. His favorite subject he liked when he went to school was of course. Math. He likes to run and wanted to coach track originally. He said when he retires he and his family will travel a lot. His favorite food is banana splits. I also asked him why he decided to teach at Lost River. He said he wanted to stay in Southern Oregon. His hobbies are sports and photography, he plans on going on a trip this summer to Europe which he is very excited about. Another question 1 asked him was, “How do you think your students feel about you?” He said, “It depends on the day”. His reply to How do you think you could improve your teaching technics? It isn’t easy around track, because I can’t get stuff done during the season but I don’t know what I can do about it. We had several district champions, the last question I asked him was, “If he could change anything in the school what would he change, he said have a little bit longer of a lunch. MATHEMATICS This year for math classes there were three teachers Mr. Rollins, Mr. Simmers, and Mr. Libby. Mr. Rollins and Mr. Sim- mers worked primarily with 7th and 8th graders, preparing them for the future math classes to come. Mr. Libby worked with the high schoolers in such classes as Geometry, Advanced Math, Physics, and other classes offered at Lost River. All the kids enjoyed having them for math teachers this year and hope to advance their math skills further next year. 78 Mathematics 79 The student council this year has had a good year over all. There were a few problems here and there, at the beginning of the year that were never ironed out. As a result, the Student Council and officers had a difficult time directing the schools affairs. Being a student body officer has a lot to do with responsibilities. Some of the responsibilities may seem unimportant, but are very vital in keeping a good school going in the right direction. A lot of energy and enthusiasm is needed in keeping the student body going strong the entire year. With lack of equal participation and intensity throughout the entire year, the officers did have a few problems. These included keeping the sign outside posted with current events, and finishing the LR on Hickeys Hill. The junior high students added a lot to the almost empty high school. The participation and support was greatly welcomed and appreciated. The year was a success with the carnival, dances, and Home comings. With the more participation from the entire school, the student council could over come many problems it has had in the past and be more prepared with the exciting years to come of events and activities.

The Lost River Booster Club consists of individuals within the communities of Merrill and Malin who are interested in pro- moting supportive education and athletic activities. Under the direction of Bob Moore-President and Larry Campbell-Vice- President, the Booster Club has helped to assist students financially by sponsoring them on FFA field trips and Athletic events. When our athletic teams reach final play offs, the district is unable to compensate for all expenses. This is when the treasurer, Sandy Cheyne, gladly hands over a check to our coaches. With these additional funds, our athletes are able to travel extra miles to complete their goals. Athletics is not the only area in which the club is active in. They support the educational process at Lost River in various ways. Each year they donate $200.00 to the library for pur- chase of magazines and books. Due to budjet cuts, this money greatly offsets the reduced materials allocated by the district. The Booster Club also awards three $50.00 scholarships to outstanding Seniors at graduation services. This year, Lost River conducted a Parent-Student switch day. Many Booster Club members and other parents participated in this special day. Linda Gallagher and Marianne Paschke are now experts in the art of mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If one were to attend a Booster Club meeting you could hear Cindy Campbell-Secretary, reading the minutes of the previous meeting. Many items are discussed and voted on at each session. Mrs. Karol McGee was very excited to find out that the Booster Club, along with the school, purchased a freezer. She is now able to sell more ice-cream to help the Cheerleaders and Dance Team raise money. Mr. Tim Simmers now has his pitching machine and batting cage paid for in full. With the addition of 7th and 8th graders this year, the Booster Club sponsored a Junior High Basketball Tourna- ment. Trophies were purchased and presented to the winning teams. Hopefully this will be a continued event each year. 1. Lost River Student Council - the govern- ing body of the high school. 2.

Through your money- making projects, you have supported Lost River in all aspects of Student Life. Without your efforts. Lost River would not have the necessary tools to further education, student activi- ties, and athletics. Next year’s officers; Dick Carleton-Presi- dent, Fred Stillwell Vice-President, Fran Stilwell-Secretary, and Marianne Paschke-Treasurer, will continue to help the Booster Club up grade Lost River High School. Booster Club 81 Agriculture The F.F.A. chapter had a very big turnout this year. The chapter has a terrific attitude with the help of their advisor, Ivan Brewer. The club was engaged in many activities this year such as the district skills contest, beginning Parli-Pro contest. State convention, the San Fran- cisco trip, snow days at Diamond Lake, a luao, fishing trips to Hart Mountain, and Aggie Days at Collegue of the Siskiyou. The F.F.A. people with animals, are getting ready for the Klamth County Fair were they will show their animals, judge many different types of animals, and auction their animals off. They have alot to look forward to with the new chapter officers. This years officers are President: G. Kolcow, Vice President: B. Haskins, Farm Man- ager: D. Cox, Senitile: J. Arizimendez, Reporter: M. Alvis, Treasurer: D. Pearce, Secretary: R. Sov- ereign, Alterate: D. Edwards. The officers should make this year very fun and really successful. 1 ► F.F.A. Front Row: J.

With the girls great attitude and the help of their advisor Kathy Biggs they made the year a very successful one. They sold a number of things to make money. Some of them included valentines and at the carnival they sold home made candy, popcorn, and balloons. One of their activities was a trip to Klamath Falls and visited the nursing home. With all the money that they have earned they took a trip to Eugene. 1. Mychclle Freeman, Lisa Johnson, and Kandy Fisher being attentive during the F.H.A. meeting. 2.

This was the first year with freshmen on it, so there was a lot of learning going on throughout the year. With Ginny Rajnus, captain, and Mrs. McGee advising, learning moves and routines were easier than thought would be. Performing at half time of the boy’s varsity basketball games en- abled them to perform in front of a large crowd. Next year looks even brighter for all of the girls and they hope to have just as big of a team as this year’s. ▲ 3 1. Practice makes perfect. 2.

YEARBOOK This years yearbook members got off to a pretty good start. They have been working very hard to put out the year- book. When the class first started, every- body was inexperienced. Some of the troubles we had were taking pictures, do- ing layouts, and writing copies. Mrs. McGee, who has been the advisor for the past couple years, did a good job in training all of us. Layouts, copywriting, and designs were the few things she taught us. In order to publish this years book, members of the class had to raise 5,000 dollars. This was done by selling adver- tisements and working in the cafeteria at noon. Aside from all the problems we had, the yearbook for 1982-83 turned out. 1. Gary Gassett, does his job well in the dark room. 2. Steve Carleton, what are you doing? 3. Michelle Morris working hard at her ads. 4.

LETTERMAN’S CLUB HELPING WHEN NEEDED 88 Letterman’s Club Letterman’s Club Looks like Letterman’s Club had plenty of people involved in the club activities this year. Many new faces joined the ranks of the old club members. This made it easier to go places and to do more things. They went on a snow day to Medicine Lake, and had the jail at the carnival. On the snow day, they went snowmobiling, innertubing, and built a big bonfire. All present enjoyed the bonfire. The main course for the evening included cooked hot dogs and roasted marshmallows. Not every member went, because some had to stay home and work. However, those who attended had an enjoyable day in the snow. For the carnival, the Letterman’s Club earned $444.00 from the jail. It seemed that everyone was either putting someone in or getting put in themselves. The jail seemed to be the most popular booth in this year’s carnival. The money earned will be used to support the entire athletic program here at Lost River. Needed uniforms for different teams at Lost River. % (503) 723-5491 COSMETICS fy ■yMasu t sb Sf. ■- 'Mansi Independent Beauty Consultant P O Box 193. Juniper PI Malm.

The members of the prom committee numbered about 20. About 15 of them showed up for decorating when the time came, and about ten of the committee mebers put in extra time to finish all the small details. Mrs. McGee and Michelle Moore spent alot of after school hours ordering items for the prom and banquet. But none of the decorations would have been worth anything if the committee members wouldn’t have been there to put them up. After decorations were ordered, the food and accessories for the banquet had to be ordered, this meant more after school hours and numerous telephone calls to Klamath Falls. The theme for the prom was “Best of Times.” This proved to be the truth only after the decorations were up and the food was all prepared and ready. There was a lot of controversy over the main dish for the banquet, submarine sandwiches, but when the people who attended looked and tasted them, they were most definetely impressed, and full. That night, the students and their dates attended the prom in their best attire and added a nice look to the decorations. ▼ 3 1. Larry Cheyne shows off his dream- boat. 2.

The Student Council started the production with the other classes joining in later to add their help. It was a memorable evening for all that attended. This included the L.R. staff, students, and parents. The youn- ger members of the crowd enjoyed the cork gun shoot and the ring toss while the teenagers had fun with the jail, basketball shoot, and the roulette ta- ble. The adults tried their luck with the nail drive and Bingo game. The junior high put on the cork gun shoot and the ring toss booths. They were really excited about doing the booth since it was their first year work- ing in the carnival. And considering it was their first year, they did a pretty good job. Another class that had their first ex- perience of working in a carnival was the freshmen. They put alot of time and effort into the dart throw booth. The worked hard to raise money for the class. The sophomores brought in the most money for the classes. They did this with the roulette table. All of the money earned will help go to all of next year’s expenses. The juniors put on the 50 50 raffle. It didn’t bring in that much money, but the class had fun doing it. The seniors had the basketball shoot and they really worked hard at it to bring in money for graduation. The main event of the evening was the crowning of the queen. The candi- dates for this year were: Tracy Mau- pin, escorted by Billy Gallagher for the freshmen. Sylvia Valenzuela, escorted by Kevin Petrik for the sophomores. Lorena Guy, escorted by Tim Horn- beck for the juniors. And Diana Dan- osky, escorted by Rod Rick for the seniors. The queen was Diana Dan- osky. She won the title by selling raffle tickets totalling $316,00. We are sorry to say that due to a mess up in developing of the pictures, we do not have any pictures of the carnival.

Going to high school with the same group of kids can be fun, and friendship bonding. But can you imagine going to school with some of your friends since kindergarten? Well, it has happened this year. From Merrill, we have 13 twelve year seniors, and from Malin we have 5. Just being able to remi- nisce about junior high days brings back a lot of memories. But when you can say “Remember never sleeping during nap- time in kindergarten”, instead we would slide around on our little nap-time rugs. It feels good to have finished high school, and it feels even better to have made so many friends along the way. Twelve Year Senior’s 111 BEFORE AND NOW Who’s Who 113 CRAZY 1) Dennis.

Paul, your flower is drooping. 2) Brett Campbell addressing his salutorian, farewell speech. 3) Larry Cheyne III happily received the title of VALDICTORIAN. Graduation 1983!! What does this mean? To this year’s Senior’s, Lost River is past history. On June 1, 1983, Seniors checked out of their classes and reported to the gym for graduation practice. Mrs. Kathy Biggs did a sup- berb job on organizing this band of renegades into refined individuals, who presented themselves to the community as outstanding graduates on Sunday June 5th. Shortly thereafter, the Seniors gathered at Malin Park for a Senior barbecue. Many thanks to the mothers and Senior advisors who helped plan and organize this final Senior activity. Larry Cheyne, Salutarian, presented a welcome speech that did reflect many of the thoughts and feelings of this year’s graduating class. Instead of folding our cap and gown, and placing it in a secure place, only to look back on and reminisce, he suggested many viable uses, such as a frisbee, rain gear, and a container for your morning cereal. Brett Campell, Sr. Class President, and Validictorian, reflected on the future rather than the past. How true were his words. Our goals cannot be achieved by the past. Each of us must strive forward into the future looking in all directions. Many awards were presented by the Faculty, Booster 1 3a Club, and Scholarships donars. Larry Cheyne received three scholarships totaling 1550.00 dollars for his outstand- ing academic achievements. Brett Campbell recieved a 1000.00 dollar scholarship, and Chris Maguire and Tim Eakins received a 250.00 dollar scholarship each as the Faculty scholarship award winners for outstanding citizen- ship. The Senior Class presented Lost River a series of deco- rative plaques to place in the gym. Each school in the Southern Cascade League was represented by a drawing of their mascot in their school colors. After Brett Campbell presented this years graduating class to all present, they proceeded into the forum where congradulations, presents, pictures, and hugs were all in order. Tears of happiness could be seen coming from graduates, parents, friends and relatives. Although graduation services were over, the day was just beginning. Proud parents had receptions at their homes for friends and relatives. The Seniors presented themselves with their own Special Senior bash at locations not to be discussed. A group of Seniors also rented a houseboat on Lake Shasta for one week to continue their celebrations. 118 Graduation LOOKING TOWARDS THE FUTURE 1.

THE END If NOT HERE, THE BECDM1N0 HAS JUST BEGUN WMUUNO THROUGH THESE 0 TOR THE FINAL TIME, 9 tou’re WALKING THROUGH THE DOORS ° OF THE REST or T«'l� UFE 1983 Hello. It is Saturday, April 16, 1993. I’m Blake Downs, and this is 20 20 Music! Due to the over abundance of mail asking about what happened to the graduating class of 1983 from Lost River High School, we, the staff of 20 20, have decided to dedicate the entire program to bring you the factual, present-day information about each individual student. The only students to stay in the Merrill and Malin areas are Dennis Barnes, Michelle Morris Barnes, Brent Haskins, Hedy Tremblay, Diana Danosky, Tad Maupin, Tere- sa McCollam, and Tim Eakins. Brent is still living with his par- ents in Merrill because of educa- tional hang-ups. When we got a hold of him, he was ashamed to say that he was still in school Pardon me, just in from our correspondent in Merrill Mrs. Cox has finally given the O.K. for Brent to gra- duate after successfully passing Where To and Personal Finance. Also deciding to stay in Merrill, because of her fond feelings for Brent, is Hedy Tremblay. She left the area shortly after dropping out of S.O.S.C. to become a statistician for the Portland Trailblazers, but after several months of longing to find out which Freshman Brent was dating, she made up her mind to go back to Merrill to stay with Brent and support him so that no other women could have him. We are sor- ry to say, that after finding out that Brent would be graduating, we do not, know what they have planned for the future, if they will be togeth- er, or not. Because of absences and tardies at work, Teresa is still residing in Merrill and living with her mother because she could never hold down a steady job long enough to earn as much money as is needed to rent an apartment. After all the problems Tad’s pickup gave him, he went into re- search to find a full-proof way to keep transmitions and auto parts working successfully. He got a pat ent on his invention, and with his extra ernings, he gave Mrs. Powell his most envied award; The Powell Plug for being the spark in his learn- ing during his high school days. Dennis and Michelle Barnes have been divorced and remarried to each other five different times. They, and their lawyers, are hoping that their sixth marriage to each other will work. Dian was always to busy to talk to Heraldo while he was there, but a very good source told him that she was about to make the final decision between Rudy, Lewis, and Brian Wait Just in she has made the decision The winner is: Herbert Heinkelbine. Tim Eakins set off to be a doctor after graduating, but decided that he didn’t have any time for sports, so he went back to Malin. He now commutes back and forth to Kla- math Falls where he is a Sacred Heart girls basketball coach. He never married because his temper kept him from having a steady girl- friend for more than eight months. From California comes news of: Rod Rick, Stacie Schaefer, Rudy Valenzuela, Tony Hartley, Manny Figeuroa, Pat Patterson, and Brett Campbell. Mister Mean, Rod Rick started out as a professional football play- er, but got a better offer from MGM Studios in Hollywood to sign a three year contract to star in the sequel of E.T., Those Unbelievable Hands. Rudy, being the one to always stand out in a crowd, was chosen as the first white, oh, excuse me, semi- white, man to plan for the Harlem Globetrotters. Manny is now a retired million- aire after he and John Travolta got together and made Saturday Night Fever, II, III, and IV. incidently, Manny did all the dancing. Stacie came close to getting mar- ried several times, but at the last minute, she kept backing out. She is now a professional car theif who boasts about her average of at least one theft a week. Brett has been a centerfold in the year-end editions of Playgirl since graduating from the military acade- my. On his days off, he is a contes- tant on the Dating Game, with spe- cial appearances by Tim Eakins on holidays. Unfortunately for them, Pat Patterson, the host of the show, is having a hard time finding contes- tants. Vidal Sassoon has discovered Tony Hartley and is now promoting Tony in his new line of hair care products for the hair that is consid- ered all his own. The name is, of course. Frizz Dizz. 120 PROPHECY After hitchhiking to Massachutes and enrolling in the highly ac- claimed Harvard University, Rich- ard “Kush” Belcher went through and passed all courses required to become a lawyer. Along with being in the top five of his graduating class at Harvard, Kush was voted class clown. Because of noticable potential to succeed in high school, and consid- erable energy to achieve in high goals, we all know, as does the na- tion, Brad Newcomb is the PRESI- DENT OF THE UNITED STATES! Kim married a famous cowboy and is now living in a cozy log cabin in the hills of Wyoming, with her three sons Matt, Marty, and Mat- thew, patterning her life after the Donald Duck Show which stars Huey, Duey, and Luey. Heraldo had trouble finding Chris Maguire because she has no address of permanent residence. After her release from the hospital in 1983, she became a groupie with Rick Springfield. She has him ta- tooed all over her body and thinks he is just heaven da da da da. There were only two students of the graduating class to move com- pletely out of the country. They were Travis Thompson and Paul Gearhard. Travis is a hermit in the pyramids of Egypt, even after finding the se- cret of the Bermuda Triangle. Paul, after being defeated in the presidential elections, turned Com- munist and is now a member of the Russian Ballet. New Mexico sun seems to have attracted a few of the graduates. Brenda Turner, Tina Moore, Mark Mann, and Sondra Geifer Mann all live in New Mexico and all have very successful jobs. Becuase of her sparkling person- ality and her willingness to work with others, Brenda is the warden at the New Mexico Maximum Secu- rity Peneteniary. After interviews with some of the prisoners, we find that their most horrifying fear is when she says to them, “Do you understand me?” and they must re- ply, “Sure we do Master Turner.” After skillfully demonstrating the wide variety and benefits of owning a built in hot tub, Tina has received a salesman of the month for the past three years. Mark and Sondra are multi-mil- lionaires after opening up their clothing store which specializes in matching clothes for lovers. They print what you want. New York was a big attraction for Lisa Heaton. She has been there since Mode O Days in Kla- math Falls shut down. After a long grueling competition in the fashion world with Bozo the clown, she was announced the winner of the Wink Martindale Fashion Search and is showing her new “Lisa Line” of clothing and cosmetics as an “American Beauty.” Because of Gary’s widelt known thoughts on how bad alcohol is for the system, he is now the vice-presi- dent of Alcoholics Anonymus in Olympia, Washington and he is hoping to be president of A.A. by the first of next year. Everyone remembers Faletha Fowler, rowdy, hard to get along with, etc, etc. Well, she kept up that image and is now a belly danc- er in one of the casinos in the “strip” in Las Vegas under the as- sumed name of Fee Fee. Ted Woohouse was swooped down to OZ by the wicked witch of the North with Dorothy where he plays basketball on the Munchkin- steam and is the tallest player on the team. It goes without saying, that his dog Toto is the mascot. 55 miles per hour, hot dogs, ap- ple pie, Chevrolet, do these remind you of Larry Cheyne? This was him until he was turned down by the Seattle Supersonics, Houston As- tros, and Dallas Cowboys. Now he is an alcoholic and is addicted to such drugs as cocaine, Angel Dust, and Speed. He has a criminal re- cord and several women have filed peternity suits against him. This has been a special report by Heraldo Revero on what has hap- pened to the Senior class of 1983, Lost River High School. This show will self-distruct in 10 seconds, I’m Blake Downs. GOOD NIGHT. 121 . AS THE CAMERA SHUTTER CLOSES. . At the beginning of the year, all is Hustle and Bustle”. Football and Volleyball has begun and Lost River has a new addition • 7th and 8th graders. Registration went smooth, and most students seem pleased about schedules, classes and teachers. Noon hours and in between classes seems like an opportune time to look back on the summer and reminisce about work, good times and bad times. All seem enthusiastic about the year to come. It took only several weeks for the youngsters to indent their groove into Lost River A new kind of excitement (mainly busy) filled the halls of Lost River. Some upper classmen welcomed the change, some will never accept it. 122 Closing . . . . AND THE SET IS TAKEN DOWN_ We had a good year at Lost River. Parents were very supportive and active in Booster Club and school related affairs. There were changes in Staff at Lost River, but all prospered. Our athletes faired well. Outstanding teams and individuals emerged from within the ranks to pace Lost River to the top of the Southern Cascade League. Overall, the aca- demic programs continued to rise, judging from this years SAT Test Scores. Graduation was both a sad and happy day. Sen- ior’s lift • Junior’s stepped in. Finals were tough, especially from the Junior High’s point of view. All involved at Lost River look forward to next year. It can only improve upon what we have built this year.
