A little more than half of all U.S. teen- agers work nationwide. Most their jobs and are willing to sacrifice sports, basketball games, and school dances. Reasons for holding a job dur- ing school vary from person to person. Elicia Bouker says it’s the experience she wants. The main reason, however, is money. Uses for money are unlimited. A car is usually a first expense. It can take a big chunk out of savings but is well worth it. Gas, clothes, and weekend entertainment are just a couple of the monthly expenses. If any money is left over it is saved. A lot of students are saving money for college. Of course finding the time for home- work is hard. In order to main- tain grades, some students put in very late nights. It is all a matter of priorities. like, PART-TIM What's your beef?

The talks, unfortuantely, resulted in a stalemate with no agreement reached. Super Bowl XXI found the New York Giants to be the superior team of the ‘86-’87 season. The Giants’ defense smothered the arm of Denver quarterback, John Elway, limiting his air attack to one touchdown. The final score showed an impressive 39-20 victo- ry for the Giants. Phil Simms, the Giant quarterback, was named MVP of the game. After the disasterous sinking of the U.S.S. Titanic so many years ago, it was finally rediscovered and located. Many oceanogra- phers from around the world got together and dove many feet with a specially-designed submarine to take pictures of this historic ship. ‘86- 8 On July 4, 1986, the restored Stat- ue of Liberty was unveiled in a fire- work-filled glaze of glory. After mil- lions of dollars and countless hours of labor, Old Glory once again stood proud in New York Harbor, her message of freedom still strong. Initiation of the 3-point shot in col- lege basketball this year resulted in a flood of controversy. Although most people agreed that it was a good thing, the majority of coaches felt that the 3-pt. line was marked too close to the basket. Despite the millions of dollars raised through the “Live Aid” con- certs this year, Ethiopians contin- ued to starve due to the terrible drought. How much money will it take to save them? Ronald Reagan found hard times at the end of 1986 with the Iranian Arms Scandal. For perhaps the first time during his presidency, Reagan’s power and authority was questioned, and the American public felt uncertain about his role in the White House. HIGH- LIGHT Dennis Connor and the rest of the crew of the San Diego- e based ship, Stars and Stripes, won the 1987 America’s Cup. The Americans beat the Australian Kukaberry Ill in four Laicesi——'d clean TS ery sweep. Terry Waite enters nego- tiations for American hostages, putting his own life very much at risk. Once every 75 years, Halley’s Comet makes its way through the galaxy. In 1986, the comet trav- elled through the Mikly Way, de- lighting millions of comet-watchers worldwide with its show of cosmic brilliance. a rs is Jennifer and Kendall are one happy cou- ating in the ‘80s is an interesting exper- ience. Since every- thing seems to cost so much nowadays, couples require inge- nuity and creativity to have a good time. Movies are still the date of choice, but movie viewing has taken on new dimen- sions. Rental movies are gaining popularity, as couples find it more relaxing to spend quiet time at home together watching their fa- vorites. Regardless of what they do, couples today still find dating an exciting and fun experience. isi a “ek Z. os Sh Shawn and Kim talk things over.

Starting with a whopping $500 at the beginning of the year, they had accumulated $1300 by the time December rolled around. With such activities as a lasagna feed, a couple of dances, and a fun-filled carwash during the summer, (remember the key, Troy?) they improved their financial status tremendously.

A5 NERVOUS was a common adjective used by the incoming freshmen at the beginning of the year. The first day of school certainly had its downfalls- making sure you sat in the right spot during the assembly, walking through the crowded halls, avoiding seniors, and trying to find the right classrooms. But then the fun started. To earn money for their graduation, they sold lollipops and posters. With the help of the upperclassmen, the freshmen participated in activities such as intramural sports and doing the Hokey Pokey.

The FFA club, headed by Mr. Ault- man, has been very active this year with projects such as the sale of poinsettias at Christmas, roses and balloons on Valentine’s day and Easter lilies at Easter. Officers of FFA are Pres. Ken Parriera, V.P. Neal Velthuizen, Sec. Kelly Casey, and Treas. Lisa Fisher. Lisa Kelly with two other FFA members, Duane Vis and Sheri Everlund, did aradio spot for safety week during the fall. It promoted farm safety features and procedures to follow. These activities all show that the FFA is a dedicated group. Back: M Arp, B Feller, C Nims, T VanBeeck, B Cochrane, H.

Lynden High School is very modern school, and this year has been the best exper- ience of my life. I’m 17 years old ex- change student Mira Tapper from Finland, who is a senior here at Lynden High School. In Finland | would be a junior because we had to go 14 years school and I’m go- ing to be still a junior when | will go back. They don’t count this year in my home country. Per- iods are here longer. In Finland periods are 45 minutes break in- stead like you have 60 minute periods and 5 minute break. First days it was like oh my gosh where is the next classroom, do | find it on time. Then came time that | need to go also to the res- troom. How you can do all those things in five minutes es- pecially when the locker combi- nation isn’t working. Somehow | have learn to do all those things in five minutes even use lockers. The lockers are really different because we don’t have them. After all | can say school here is sure different, interesting, and much more easier than in Fin- land. There are many different points between Japan and U.S. Almost all Japanese students go to studying school and cram school. Cram school isn’t real school. We also learn from school, but | can tell it looks learn from cram school and have tests at school. Some kindergartens, pri- mary school, and junior high school have entrance exam. My friend thought government decide my wife. Don’t forget Japan is de- mocracy. Japan is communicating with many countries so we can lis- ten to the same song. Sometime also we can watch some American shows. Now Japanese teenager are called new type. Communica- tion is changing Japanese.

A big bravo for all the school teams, where | spent some of my more memorful times. Sports are so much sociable here. Thank you to the teachers who always were there to help me or to share nice things about my country and theirs. | was so happy to have friends who had always enough patient to try to understand me and help me to progress in my Eng- lish. It was nice to always find peo- ple who would give you a ride home or somewhere else when you needed. One thing is sure is that | will never forget you, be- cause you are all great people. Lot of love from the Swiss Miss Fred. I’m Morten Arp from Denmark, and this year | have been a senior at Lynden High. Denmark is very different from U.S.A. especially when talking about the difference in high schools. | graduated last year after tenth grade, and when |’m through this year of American high school, I'll continue with two or three years of trade school. I've really enjoyed this year, everybody has been very nice and hospitable. | think Lynden High is a really nice high school and I'll never forget this year as a exchange student at Lynden High. aa Eric, C oN Starring indy, Daren, Elisa, and Dan.

You'll always have the memories Of your school years from day one, Don't think of school as ending Think a new life has begun. -Cindy Kichline Krishelle Bovenkamp—Valedictorian WE TREAT YOU RIGHT LYNDEN Administrators: M.Kirby, H.Heppner, V.Vannice, and a future administrator Secretaries: N.VanderYacht, T.Highley, C.Cranford, A.Kingma School spirit is not a characteristic that can be turned off and on at the will of students or faculty. School spirit is also not just reserved for ex- tra curricular activities, but pervades the entire offerings and activities of a student body. School spirit has been t he trademark of Lynden High for many years and has contributed enormously to our success. —V.Vannice int Social Studies Dept.: T.DeValois, Y.Fenton, English Dept.: J.Erkes, J.Knudsen, B.Car- 4 R.Wahlgren son, R.Noe, C.Maberry es MILKY WAY Tuck Transportation Specialists 8631 Depot Road PO Box 433 Lyndon, Washinglon 98264 (206) 354 2101 Counselors: T.White, L.Golden Business Dept.: J.Clark, M.Flaherty, E.Wascisin, P.Andres, J.Aultman Art Dept.: S.
