The Roever Crusade comes to Mazama TV, radio, newspa- per, and magazine ad- vertisements are con- stantly telling us that beauty is defined by clear skin, sparkling teeth, thin waistlines, and thick hair. But as Dave Roever showed the students of Ma- zama, true beauty is much more than cos- metics. While on duty in Vietnam Roever lost 60 pounds of flesh, in- cluding his right ear, fingers, and nose, when a phosphorous grenade blew up six inches from his face. The accident left him terribly disfigured on the outside; but with the love and support of his wife, Roever maintained his inner strength. He now travels the country as an evangel- ist letting people know that life can be won- derful and enjoyable despite the troubles you are possibly dealt. He is tough on his au- diences, making sure they know he is in con- trol not only of the sit- uation but of his life in general. He is not soon to be forgotten by many at Mazama as he touched their hearts with experiences of love and hope. Shown after a lunch-time meeting where Roever spoke of taking care of your- self are Shawna Moore, Jen- iene Zumbo, David Cobb, Dave Roever, Pat Reynolds, Jason Sale. Jon Wright, and Brad Sorenson. Roever shows how many handicaps can be overcome while playing the piano with missing fingers. Roever Crusade - 161

Competing Through Talent Webster states art is the conscious use of skill and creative imagination espe- cially in the produc- tion of aesthetic ob- jects. The 27th an- nual May art fair was held at Klamath Union. Mazama's en- tries have been strong for the last three years. Mr. John Bastinelli said people enjoy Maza- ma's acrylics and pastels because they are larger than other schools' and attractive. Many photography stu- dents entered their prints and did well. Clothing was not judged but begin- ning and advanced artcles were shown. Junior Krista Jordan stated, I like com- peting in the art fair because it gives me a chance to com- pare my acrylic painting and pho- tography with other students in the county. next year everyone is looking for a good show here at Mazama. Second prize- Dana Ko- zeliski chose to show her artistic streak from be- hind the camera. Dana took photography to leam how to express her talent. Rockwell inspiriation - This acrylic painting done by Kim Sorensen earned her a first-place ribbon. Kim enjoys nor- mari Rockwell s work and got the basic idea for her painting from him. Clothing displayed by Seancerae Thompson and Viki Kiser earns rec- ognition at the art fair. Design, texture, and col- or enable one to express themselves. Art Fair • 163
