0n Thursday 5 June, 1980, as teachers were busily reviewing for finals and 'll getting ready to end the school year, they were interrupted by an electrical fire in room 45. TEACHERS SAVED THEIR GRADE BOOKS AS THE FIRE ALARM SOUNDED. Shortly after arriving, the decision was made to release the students for the remainder of the day. The only draw back was they could not return to pick up their belongings until later that afternoon. The fire was not the only excitement to greet the school as the year ended. The following Tuesday, in the middle of Finals, the fire alarms rang once again and the building was cleared, to allow the building to be searched for a bomb. Smoke could be seen and smelled in the 40's hall as the lunch hour was drawing to a close. The fire alarm went off and the students exited the building in an orderly fashion, to await the arrival of the fire department. As no bomb was found, and none went off, the students were returned to their classes, to com- plete their finals, and to end the school year. WHAT A MESS!!! POSTAGE DUE 205

Mark Clawson AN ANNUAL CLASS BY MARK CLAWSON Hi ya kids!”, said Misses Porter behind her desk. 'Welcome to the yearbook class, where you make it what you want.” EAhh , came a groan from the class, sitting on the desks and the chairs. What do you mean by that.''” Well, it is the first year, and why not make it the best.-' said Mrs. Porter. This stuck with the kids all the year long. And I being one of the lucky' ones to be in this class. I just thought I would run down briefly what the year entailed. Keerch! came the sound of a squeaky mo- torcycle. Mr. Porter had just let his wife, Robbi off, at the rear entrance of Mazama High Sch x l, where she was to teach numer- ous classes and take Tylenol all day long. Good-bye Honey , said Vern to Robbi. Have a nice day!” You too dear, see ya at 4:15! said Robbi. Mrs. Porter walked in the back door and through the 10's hall and right to the office, where she was greeted by Dr. Jones and Larry Wagner. After four hours of her first four classes. Mrs. Porter was ready to greet her yearbook class with a bright and cheery smile. Dana Edwards, a senior, and the editor, came in with a cinna- mon roll and sat herself down behind the front table. She looked toward the chalkboard and noticed Mrs. Porter's lesson plans on the board. Kim Garrard, a consistent girl who always was willing to help, entered the room next, with Gail Edwards, another girl who knew what she had to do and what had to be done. Hi , said Dana to Kim and Gail, How are you today.'' Just l ine, but cold came the response from both girls. Meanwhile, during this brief con- versation, in walked Kelley Edwards and Mi- chelle Alexander, laughing about something that they noticed in the hall. 206 MAZAMA S
