Powers High School - Cruiser Yearbook (Powers, OR)

Text from Pages 1 - 88 of the 1984 volume:

VOLUME 59 CRUISER POWERS HIGH SCHOOL HOME OF THE CRUISERS Excellence HOLD ON! TABLE OF CONTENTS Originality, Spirit and that good- 'ol Powers High School tradition was hard at work during this spe- cial year of 1984. If you decide to continue turning the pages of this yearbook, you will find that this year's inexperienced staff did a very fine job in recording the events of 1984. The Senior class brought back a long-lost tradition when they went on the first Senior trip in eleven years. Also you will read about the smashing success of all the sports seasons and share the emotions and memories of the stu- dents and faculty who made this yearbook possible.

Kelly Spencer, special education teacher, became Kelly Allred, and Jim Click, shop teacher, became the husband of Wendy Click. Science teacher, Mark Donnelly, fathered his first child, Evan, who, accompa- nied by his mother, Pat Walker, managed to cheer up lunch hour every day. Ellen Baldwin, librarian, taught a computer literacy class and also spent much time tutoring. New teacher, Terry Farrier, took Frankie Fedor's place on the staff. This was also his first year as head football coach. In spite of budget cutbacks leav- ing no funding for field trips, Mary Fronk and Gloria Quilhaugh squeezed in a couple. Miss Fronk took her music appreciation stu- dents to an Adam Ant concert in Eugene. Mrs. Quilhaugh took her girls P.E. class to attend several ex- ercise classes and to play some ra- quetball. Kerry Quilhaugh announced this to be his final year as varsity bas- ketball coach. He has worked hard along with the seniors to bring back traditions such as skip day. Mr. Quilhaugh also had two poems of his published in The World newspaper. John Rollofson was superinten- dent at P.H.S. for the second year. When Mr. Rollofson wasn't work- ing in School District 31, he was taking classes including school law, school buildings, and research and evaluation of programs. After Christmas, school secre- tary, Linda Fry, was on her own in the office because Janice Rolfe, after serving five years as adminis- trative secretary, left to marry Dick Vigue. Mrs. Fry was helped on Thursdays when Shirley Stallard, deputy clerk, came in to take care of the school's finances. 4 Faculty Classes . . . WITH STYLE Our janitors and maintenance people, Lavine Elam, Corky Clau- son, and Dick Wallace deserve a standing ovation. They manage with the limited time to keep the lawn mowed, the halls and class- rooms swept and cleaned, the gar- bage picked up on campus, the school heated, and everything run- ning smoothly. The school board members along with the budget committee mem- bers should all have big smiles on their faces. After working all year on a budget that would satisfy the voters of Powers, they were hit with a pleasant surprise. For the first time in P.H.S. history, the tax base passed.

Faculty Classes 5 Someone new NEW RECRUIT The Powers school district once again recruited a new teacher, Ter- ry Farrier, this time to take the place of Frankie Fedor on the staff for business, math, and computer science. Mr. Farrier, just out of col- lege and with student-teaching ex- perience, came to Powers with his wife, Debbie, and his little boy, Doug. Considering the fact that he had not taught at the high school level before, Mr. Farrier adjusted rather well. Being nervous and not know- ing what to expect at first, Mr. Far- rier conducted his classes as if he were an army drill sergeant. Once the students broke him in, though, his bright, white teeth were often seen under the furry caterpillar he wore on his upper lip. Even before school started, Mr. Farrier was getting involved with some of the students. He jumped feet first into the head football coaching position at P.H.S. This was his first year as a high school coach, and never before had he coached football. The team did ex- ceptionally well in spite of a few drawbacks. Coach Farrier guided the boys happily and not-so-hap- pily to the state quarter-finals. He will be taking over as head basket- ball coach next year. Page 6 - Terry Farrier learns to walk.

VARIETY OFFERED In most schools, teachers major in and teach only one field. That's not the case here. Each teacher teaches several subjects. Gloria Quilhaugh, usually referred to as the home ec. teacher, also teaches health and P.E. Mark Donnelly, science teacher, also conducts math and Spanish classes. Jim Click, known as shop teacher, taught a career development and computers class. 8 Faculty Classes Required classes Page 10 - left: Glen Gillespie; right; Tammy Moore shows her ambition for the class.

A MUST FOR GRADUATION The teachers on the next few pages are in a way the most impor- tant part of our high school educa- tion. They teach most of the re- quired classes through our high school years. This year, Glen Gille- spie taught U.S. history, geometry, algebra, seventh and eighth grade English, and current events. Kerry Quilhaugh conducted classes in ci- vics, P.E., seventh and eighth grade language arts, history, and math. He was also athletic director and administrative assistant. Mary Fronk was, as usual, in charge of our English department. She also added a new class to her schedule - music appreciation. Miss Fronk is the annual advisor, and this is her last year as High Power advisor. 10 Faculty Classes Shiny and new faces SEVENTH GRADE Willie Davis Sergeant-At-Arms Renae Frye Tammy Grabowski President Scott Henderson Treasurer Maureen Hogue Robby Kalb Secretary Laura Lee Roy Lehnherr Class Representative Calvin (Dugan) Looney Michelle Martin Tammy Moore Donald Schrag Vice-President Bobbie Stephens Curt Tarbox Page 14 - Bottom: Laura Lee Page 15 - Top Left: Donald Schrag; Top right: Bobbie Stephens, Maureen Hogue, and Renae Frye; Middle left: Roy Lehnherr; Center: Tammy Grabowski; Middle right: Robbie Kalb; Bottom left: Scott Henderson and Dugan (Calvin) Looney; Bottom right: Willie Davis in Arts and Crafts. 14 Junior High 88 is great EIGHTH GRADE Secretary Darla Fry Sergeant-At-Arms Ken Lee President John Nightingale Treasurer LaLania Sturman Vice-President Mark Tracy Class Representative Doug Werner Richard Pierson Randy Warren Page 16 - Center left: junior high rally, Bob- bie Stephens, Laura Lee and Darla Fry; Cen- ter bottom: Laura Lee and Bobbie Stephens seeking privacy in the janitor's closet; bot- tom right: seventh grade advisor, Kelly Allred ne' Spencer.

Besides their regular classes of math, English and science, they stunk up the halls with their gourmet cooking in Home Ec. and dazzled the eye with their projects in Arts and Crafts. The eighth and seventh graders were also spirit-minded, support- ing all of the P.H.S. activities. They were very active in their sports pro- gram with most of the students ei- ther members of the Wolfpack or the rally.

NEW COACH BRINGS SECOND PLAYOFF GAME TO POWERS TEAM When the 1983 football team made it to the semi-finals of the State Tournament, many people thought that it would be another decade before the Cruisers would return. But all it took was another new coach and harder work. First year coach Terry Farrier started the season off with daily doubles to prime the very raw-talented Cruis- ers team for their opening game. The Cruisers went into Elkton not knowing if they were ready to go against a very experienced ball club. As the game progressed, the Powers football team got over their nervousness and wiped out their opponent. They began a very suc- cessful season and eventually to a State play off spot. Coach Farrier took his powerhouse team to St. Paul for the quarter-finals. The Cruisers lost the game but did prove to the citizens of Powers that football is back. Page 20: Coach Terry Farrier.

The team used well practiced bumps, exact sets, and smashing spikes to plow their way through Skyline League Play. Elkton handed them their only defeat in league play. The loss placed Elkton and Powers in a tie for first place in the Northern Divi- sion. A coin was tossed to decide seeding for the District Tourna- ment. The Cruisers lost the toss and went to District seeded second. The girls won three tough matches, one against Days Creek, and two against Elkton; but as was their weak point all year, it took three games to win each match. They de- feated Elkton in their last game 15- 13 which sent them to the State B Volleyball Tournament in The Dalles. The Cruisers opened at State by playing Falls City. The girls were excited but tense about their first state tournament play. They played three tough games but ended up two points short from making it into the finals. Two hours later the girls played a consolation match against Condon. Powers won the first game but was again closely de- feated in the next two. The team was disappointed because they ended up fourth, but the left with one thing in mind, We'll be back next year!

All of their practices were fired with hard work and spirit. They were determined to attain their goal and they did. This year's team only had one senior, Shari Kalb, whom they will greatly miss, but the Junior, Soph- omore, and Freshmen girls are looking forward to another trip to the State Tournament. Four girls received All Tournament team honors: Shari Kalb, Shelly Butler, and Kelle Adamek were named to the District 2-B All Tournament Team, and Shelly Butler was named to the 1st Team All State, while Kelle Adamek and Gretchen Stauffer were named to the 2nd Team All State.

During Spiritweek people dressed up as hippie cave- men, Romans, punkers, and on Thursday, the day of the big game, they showed their colors. As was traditional the high school pro- vided the town's people with their homecoming parade. The three floats that best showed spirit, cre- ativity, and neatness were the sen- iors for first prize, $15.00, eighth graders second prize, $10.00, and third prize, $5.00, the seventh grad- ers. Wednesday, October 12 at 3:00 p.m. Shari Kalb was crowned Queen of the 1983 Homecoming court, by Mr. Football Glen Fry. The Juniors' choice for princess was Gretchen Stauffer; she was es- corted by Jack Lowery. The Sopho- mores' princess was Karen Lee: her escort was Scott Huntley. Fresh- man princess, Sarah Combs, was escorted by Kevin Adamek. The eighth grade princess, Lalania Stur- man, had as her escort Doug Werner. The seventh grade prin- cess, Michelle Martin, was escorted by Robby Kalb. The crown bearer this year was Joe Tyler and the flower girl was Janel Thorton. Kim Furgus played the piano.

The big activity at Parents Night was the fashion show, in which almost everyone participated. There were also air bands, skits, and singing. Science Fair-Awards Night was a big suc- cess with many people receiving recognition for outstanding work, attendance, and ingenious science projects. Talent Night has always been a favorite, and it was a smash again this year. The choice skits performed had the audience rolling in the aisles, and many unknown talents were exposed. The Outdoor Club sponsored Talent Night this year instead of the AFS Club. Page 30 - Tina St. Clair modeling at Parents Night.

Activities Always together in Memory CLOSE KNIT GROUP As tradition holds, the Juniors held the Junior-Senior Banquet. They chose lavender and light blue for their colors, and the menu was roast beef, green beans, mashed po- tatoes, rolls, and pie. The banquet was not as successful as they had hoped, because not many people at- tended. Senior President Chris Wassman passed the colors and the traditions they represent to Junior President Kelle Adamek. The Seniors brought back the skip day, and they controlled them- selves while having their fun, so next year's Seniors could have a skip day too. The Juniors and Seniors were a close knit group. They did many things together including sports, the Junior-Senior Banquet, the Sports Banquet, and the Senior Ball. Some of them have been to- gether since the early years of grade school, and the Seniors will be greatly missed by the Juniors. Page 32 - Glenn Gibbs and Tony Monaco showing their legs off.

The 1984 P.H.S. student council, consisted of president Tony Mon- aco, vice-president Shari Kalb, sec- retary Angie Huntley, treasurer Kelle Adamek, assistant treasurer Karen Lee, and parliamentarian Robert Frye. Another group, de- serving recognition, is the Honor Society. This year's new members were senior Chris Wassman, soph- omore Karen Lee, junior Gretchen Stauffer, and junior Ray Tracy. The Powers chapter will be losing four people, three seniors, Chris Wass- man, Tony Sturman, and Greg McAdams, and junior Tina St. Clair who is moving. Thanks to Greg's mother, Francoise McA- dams, who made boy and girl Cab- bage Patch Dolls for the students to raffle off, the chapter was able to have a nice tapping ceremony. Tina made the cake.

Every student participated in sports or rally; infact, three girls made the rally team. The freshmen, with the help of Gloria Quilhaugh, had many fund raisers. The Freshmen were responsible for the bonfire. Because of the el- dery housing project the Home- coming bonfire was not held in its usual place. The Freshman class placed the bonfire behind the foot- ball field grand stands.

SUCCESSFUL SEASON The 1984 Cruiser Basketball Team began practice late due to the football playoffs. However, they started off with a bang. On De- cember 6, the team traveled to Myr- tle Point for our yearly encounter with our larger neighbor to the north. This year, the Cruisers won 58-52, after leading by as many as 20 points early in the game. This was a tremendous victory for the Powers Basketball program. The Cruisers finished December winning four and losing only once. The one loss was to Pacific at the first-ever Powers Basketball Tour- nament. League play started after Christ- mas Vacation. The Cruisers won ten and lost five. Powers finished in the Northern Division behind a very fine Elkton team. Again the Cruiser trademark was hustle and desire. With a small number of boys to choose from, the team lacked depth, however, all the boys who played contributed a great deal to the success of the team. Page 42: Basketball Coach Kerry Quilhaugh.

Paisley was handily defeated 67-47. On the sec- ond night of the tournament Pow- ers was defeated 72-62 by Cascade Christion, thus ending the Cruisers attempt to go to the state tourna- ment for the fourth year in a row. The team finished with a very re- spectful 15-7 record. Chris Wassman established him- self as the team leader early in the season. Chris lead the team in scor- ing and team field goal percentage. He was rewarded by being chosen to the All-League team and the All- District team. Chris scored 59 points in his last two games to cap a greay senior season. Senior starters, Chris Wassman, Glen Fry, and Robert Frye, will be missed. Page 44: Top left- Glen Fry flying. Top right- Ray Tracy. Bottom- Tony Monaco and Ray Tracy taking it to Days Creek.

These pro- grams are important to the success of athletics at Powers because they give the athletes necessary game experience and important skills. Terry Farrier coached the J.V. bas- ketball team and led them to a very impressive season. Kelly Allred led the J.V. volleyball team to an excel- lent league season; they received only one loss against Elkton. All of the athletes greatly enjoyed their experiences.

Four girls, Teresa Fry, Karen Lee, Tracy Smith, and Phaedra Kalb, went to State with the team in volleyball. Clint Stephe was photographer for the Cruiser yearbook, and most of the boys were involved in football and basketball, and track. The girls who didn't go out for basketball took part in the rally. Although the class didn't have much organiza- tion, they managed to get one activ- ity completed and a float designed for the Homecoming parade; they kept very busy.

This year's hard fight and determination showed by ev- ery girl on the team reflected on the rugged coaching of Greg Burton. Coach Burton, after taking a break for a year, returned to the coaching staff to shape up a team he could respectfully call his. As the season wound down, the hope for post sea- son play was out of the reach; but to show the pride and tradition of the school the Cruiser girls came within two points of the State bound Days Creek ball team. This last game of the season showed, to every team in the league, that the Powers Cruiser Girls Basketball Team would be one to contend with in the 85 season. Page 52: Gretchen Stauffer.

They did manage two cake raffles, which grossed a record breaking $104.00. The Juniors also sponsored a suc- cessful Junior-Senior Banquet. The Class of '85 has always been active in athletics. All of the girls in the class were members of the Dis- trict Champion Volleyball Team, which went to state. Glenn Gibbs and Jack Lowery held places on the Football team, which went to the State B Quarter finals. Kelle Ada- mek, Shelly Butler, Jackie Morgan, Tina Russell, and Gretchen Stauffer were members of the Girls' Basketball Team. Glenn Gibbs, Ray Tracy, and Jack Lowery were members of the Boy's Varsity Bas- ketball Team, which placed third in the District. Victor Johnson was on the J.V. Basketball Team. Gretchen Stauffer, Kelle Adamek, Shelly But- ler, and Victor Johnson were dedi- cated members of the Powers Track Team. The Junior Class was happy to receive two new class members, Ray Tracy and Victor Johnson, but they will be sorry to lose Tina St. Clair.

Five members of the class, Kelle Adamek, Kelly Johnson, Tina Russell, Jack Lowery, and Gretchen Stauffer managed to get their li- censes. Jack and Kelle each had an accident, but neither of them were seriously injured. The Juniors were also one of the most spirited classes having the vocal leadership of Glenn Gibbs and Shelly Butler. With that leadership they managed to win the Spirit Trophy at the bon- fire.

Heart and soul ON WITH THE SHOW The Senior Class of 1984 had a very spe- cial year together. This class kept up tradi- tions and brought back some old ones. This class brought back the long lost Sen- ior skip day. For a whole day the class had good clean fun, if you can call mud fights at Sunset beach clean. A couple of the crazies treaded the muddy waters in their four wheelers, leaping jumps and whipping cookies; and some of the guys got a kick out of crashing and rolling their vehicles. Then to finish the day the class went to the mov- ies; the chaperones, and the three girls of the class, and Glen and Robert watched Police Academy while the other five members, Chris, Tony, Greg, Archie and Tony Stur- man watched a beach girl flick called Hard- bodies.

This year eight of the members let- tered in a sport. Six of the boys were on the Varsity Football team. Three were elected to the All-league team, Chris Wassman as All-league Quarterback, Glen Fry as All- league Defensive Lineman, and Tony Monaco as both All-league Fullback and Linebacker. Shari Kalb was chosen for the District Volleyball All-star tournament team. Chris Wassman was also picked for the All-league Basket- ball team and elected to the District Basketball All-star tournament team. For the track season Seniors Tony Sturman went to state in the Triple Jump and Chris Wassman in tne Long Jump. With the help of the Seniors Powers was able to en- joy trips to state in Football, Vol- leyball and Track. To the class of Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Four this yearbook is dedicated to you. Thanks and Congratulations. Page 66 - left: Kerry Quilhaugh; right: Angie Huntley.

Is a one word defi- nition for this year's track team. For ten out of sixteen members it was their first year out for track. This inexperienced team performed well against many of the double and AAA schools who figured Powers was going to be a walk- over. For every girl on the team this year it was a new experience to bet- ter themselves, individually. In the league meet the girls took a strong third place over-all. With eight of the nine girls returning and the eighth graders who join the team the girls should give a good hard fight for a league championship next year. This year the boys put up a battle and earned a well-deserving first place trophy, going to the league track meet and representing the skyline league as league co-champs with Canyonville Bible Academy. Of the sixteen members, three earned trips to the state trackmeet. Senior Chris Wassman gliding nineteen feet eleven and one-half inches at the district meet, Senior Tony Sturman leaping forty one feet two inches in the triple jump and Gretchen Stauffer running a difficult five minute thirty nine second fifteen hundred meter run. 68 Track Page 68-upper left: Glen Fry; upper right: Chris Wassman jumpin'; middle left: Mark Donnelly; middle left bottom: Gretchen Stauffer; bottom left: Kevin Adamek; right bottom: Shari Kalb and Gretchen Stauffer.

Special group JOB WELL DONE We hope you enjoyed the 1984 Annual. Putting this yearbook to- gether was more difficult than the past because this year it was an Ex- tra Curricular Activity. The staff had to do all the work outside regu- lar class time. This dedicated staff spent many nights after school and many days into the summer finish- ing this annual. The staff included Sophomores Phaedra Kalb and Photographer Clint Stephens, Ju- niors Gretchen Stauffer and Kelle Adamek, and Seniors, sports Edi- tor, Glen Fry and Editor Chris Wassman. Special thanks to Larry Dwyer, for his dark room and help and Patty Adamek for Transporta- tion.
