All the friends l or most of us. attending Ma ama High School means a simple morning walk or drive. But for ten German students it was a very different story. Thirteen hours of plane and automobile travel brought these students to Mazama s doors. Two of the foreign exchange students were Marc Khry and Henri Schomaker I hey attended classes here for three weeks Marc and Henri agree that school and its subjects are much easier here than at home which is Ladcnburg. Germany. 'I he city they live in is 2,000 years old which, compared to our cities, is ancient. When asked. NX hat hadn't you expected to find in Amerca' they said. 1 he people here are very friendly, more so than at home. According to Henri, Family life here is easier, more relaxed. During their stay Henri lived with F.ric Vanderhoffs family and Marc with Ken l.cppert's family. American life was a big change for them. They did things here for the first time that we. as Americans, consider basics. They visited Crater I.akc, went water skiing, and attended movies The movies they wanted to see were, of course. Back to the Future and Rambo First Blood Fart II. Our glorious fast-food industry, being what it is, made a big impression on our visitors with tacos, piz a. and hamburgers as favorites. They were also introduced to our music, resulting in two favorities: Too l.ate for Love and Billy Don't Lose My Number. There were a number of other students who also visited from Germany. They were: Richard Banschback, Haldun Tuncay, Christian Muller, Nicole Rtdinger. Karen Sauder, Felicia Sicinke. Annette Trohne. and Suzanne Zurger. Unfortunately, these students were unable to be interviewed; however, they are still to be remembered. In closing, a few days before they left (September 2 1, 1985) we asked them it they were ready to go home. Both Marc and Henri replied NO!' And, when asked what they would miss most Henri said. All the friends we made.

One could have found a hall monitor roam • ing the halls of Mazama at any time of the day this year just waiting for a poor student without a hall pass in his possession. There were many different kinds of hall passes being put to use this year. They were exotic and ordinary. Anything from a bird cage to a wine bottle to an empty tape holder, sta- pler. or simply piece of paper with your name, the date, and the teacher’s signature frantically scrawled out while trying to maintain some kind of order in the classroom. If caught in the hall without a pass ( Heaven Forbid) you most often received a terrifying look, a few sharp words, and an escort back to class from one of those roving masters of disci- pline. This was the first year at Mazama that the hall pass rule was truly enforced. Before it was almost impossible to keep track of students in the halls, but now with the newly hired moni- tors hall passes are suddenly a must, not to mention a nuisance.
