is what shows us what family means to him. His outgoingness and attitude are so predictable, yet we never get bored with a history class when he's teaching. He can make anyone laugh on his worst day. In all of these aspects, we know how respected this man is at Marathon High School, and how deserving he is of this dedication. For these reasons and more, the 1987 Shoreline staff looks up to Mr. James Keeney. We thank him for his many years of devo- tion, caring, and all-around just being there. Dedication 3

Students really respect him because he's that perfect kind of role model. When you think of Mr. Keeney you think of a devoted man, in many aspects. In class, on the field, ana at home. He teaches with a sense of by- the-book procedures that tne Army did so well to teach him. but also with a sense of humor that everyone looks forward to being around every day. He's the kind of person who is there when any student needs help, advice or cheering-up. He dedicates his time, not only to education, but also to sports. He is an excellent educator, as well as a superb football coach. Family is important to Mr. Keeney, and he's important to them. The amount of time and love he shows toward his family 2 Dedication

MHS students favored warm weather, sunny beaches and water sports. All of these things could be en- joyed year-rouna in Marathon. From 3:25 on Friday afternoons to 8:00 on Monday mornings, a large portion of Marathon's stu- dent population could be found at Sombrero Beach, enjoying the best of sun, sand and surf. The Keys' ''laid-back'' attitude was as unique as its environ- ment. Constant relaxation was a game often played by Keys residents. 4 Opening
