Prescott High School 1050 North Ruth Prescott, Arizona Hassayamper Volume LXXI 1981 A New Beginning where do we fit in? With the beginning of a new decade at hand we can take time to look back on all we have learned. Although things are changing we know that we can find our own place to fit in by just being ourselves. Over the last ten years we have learned what we want to be and what we can do to achieve our goals. Fitting in is important but more important is knowing what we want for ourselves. For seniors this new decade is the time when they will start out on a new life, away from high school. Learning where we fit in is up to the individual, we need others but in the end it is up to us to find our own place in life. 1. Students enjoy the fun and food of the fair. 2.

Along with the others, Mount St. Helens has become a landmark of the northwestern United States and a popular tourist attraction. On May 18. 1980 Mount St. Helens became a worldwide landmark following the largest volcanic explosion in the United States in more than 60 years. The damage from the explosion is awe- some. A cubic mile of earth was blown away, 31 people were killed (another 32 are still missing and presumed dead) and 220,000 acres of timberland were either destroyed or damaged. Since the first ma- jor eruption, there have been four others, the most recent on August 15, 1980. The most incredible aspect of the moun- tain is that scientists have little idea if, or when, the next explosion will occur. They are monitoring the mountain constantly though for any signs of a repeat perfor- mance. November 4, 1979 was the beginning of a nightmare for the employees of the U.S. embassy in Iran. On that day a group of militant Iranian students seized the embassy and held the American employees hostage. After more than a year, there has been lit tie change in the situation of the re maining 52 hostages. In the spring of 1980 a rescue mis- sion by the U.S. ended in disaster with the death of eight United States service men. Since that time the ne- gotiations proceeded cautiously be- tween the two nations and their inter- mediaries. In mid 1980 a series of particularly brutal murders of black children took place in Atlanta, Georgia. These incidents caused terror in not only the black community of Atlanta but also in cities across the nation. The mood in Atlanta has become so tense that parents no longer allow their children outside alone. As of the end of November, the police have no suspects and maintain that there is no link between the deaths and the KKK. Not only is this tension felt in Atlanta but in Buffalo, New York, as well, where six black men have been murdered. The killing of blacks is apparently moving across the nation as murders have been reported in Okla- homa City, Indianapolis, Cincinnati. Johnstown. Pennsylvania and Salt Lake City, (Jtah. x J , ,A The small country of Iran has been the center of world news throughout part of 1979 and all of 1980. Not only have the 52 American hostages being held in the country caused a great deal of attention but now a war with Iraq is increasing interest in the affairs of the country. In late September of 1980 the war between the neighboring countries began and since that time much of the western world has watched the situa- tion carefully, fearing the precious oil the two coun- tries control would be cut off. As yet no such action has been taken but both Iran and Iraq have worked to keep the threat alive. The war has not helped the situation with the hos- tages as it has divided the attention of the Iranian government between the hostages and the war. (25 November 1980) In the 1960’s and early 1970’s the Apollo and Gemini space flights made headlines and stirred interest all over the world. In 1980 Voyager 1 captured the attention of the world once again I Wdth its exploration of the planets Saturn and 'Jupiter. Voyager 1 began sending back images of the Saturn system, nearly a billion miles away, in November of 1980. Scientists working at the Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena. California, have been working for weeks collecting data and pho- tographs on the planet which previously was relatively unknown. Voyager 1 has spent three years in space resulting from more than 10 years of preparation by both scientists and engineers. 1980 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION In Arizona, Senator Barry Goldwater faced the toughest challenge of his career but did defeat multi millionaire Bill Schulz. Congressman Mo Udall’s seat was expected to be much closer than his re-election vote indicated. VOTE H8E BECflOM m The presidential election of 1980 will probably be remem- bered mainly for its overwhelming rejection of liberal politics by the American voters. Republican Ronald Rea gan won a landslide victory over Democrat incumbent Jimmy Carter, starting a trend which marched across the country on nearly every level of government. For nearly all of the campaign the presidential race was considered too close to call by the major poll takers. This was due in part to the unusually large number of undecid ed individuals. John Anderson, Independent, received no electoral votes. Many of the prominent Democrat senators felt the effects of the Republican sweep as a number of them including George McGovern (South Dakota), the 1972 presidential nominee and Senator Birch Bayh (Indiana), were defeat ed. 26 The Olympic games of 1980 were short nearly 30% of the countries who usually participate. Among the boycotting teams, protesting the Russian invasion of Afghanistan, was the United States. The decision to protest, made by the U.S. Olympic committee at the urging of President Jimmy Carter, caused a great deal of controversy within the coun- try. Many of the athletes were in favor of the decision but there were many others who felt that it was unfair to mix politics with the games. In the U.S. Olympic trials, gymnasts Kurt Thomas and Bart Connor, reached the zenith of their amateur careers, each receiving a perfect score of 10 during the individual events. Had the U.S. participated in the Olympics, these gymnasts as well as members of the diving, swimming and track and field teams were expected to take many medals. 27 28 The price of gas rose drastically during 1980. This encouraged many to cut back their driving and to spend vacation time closer to home due to the price and the availability of gas. The rising cost of fuel not only changed the American driving habits but also had a direct effect on what type of car people bought. The larger models have been replaced with fuel efficient compact cars. Due to our depen- dance on foreign countries to sup ply oil, the (J.S. is never really con- fident of a lasting supply of crude oil. GNP, CPI, prime interest rates, inflation rates, unemployment percentages—all are indicators of the struggling econo- my of the 1980 s. Perhaps the most dra matic, and in some ways the most ro- mantic, indicator has been the fluctuat- ing price of gold and silver. New inves- tors have offered top dollar for recycla- ble gold, jewelry stores take old class rings in trade, individuals are selling their heirloom sterling silver and bur- glary of silver items has surpassed the previous leader, electronic equipment. The gross national product (GNP) and the consumer price index (CPI) figures touched every family as rising prices of goods and services stretched the pock- etbook of all. The U.S. was not suffering alone: other countries fared worse than we with soaring inflation. Inflation has been a major story in the United States for years now and 1980 was no exception. The price of food rose right along with everything else as people continuously searched for the best bargain. Because food is such a necessary item, people were forced to pay outrageous prices and they searched for alternative menus in attempts to ease the cost. U f Ol ■ M Muhammad Ali chose October of 1980 to make the greatest comeback of his career. After retiring from the boxing scene two years ago. a 38 year old AM faced Larry Holmes in an outdoor ring at Caesars Pal- ace. AM had prepared for the fight by losing nearly 40 pounds and in doing so lost a great deal of his former strength. At 30 years of age and in top physical form. Holmes soon realized that AM was no long- er The Greatest. A crowd of 25.000 watched as the former heavyweight champion, out boxed by a man eight years his junior, lost the fight in 10 rounds. The summer of 1980 was filled with controversy. The hostages. Mount St. Helens and inflation were all gaining worldwide attention but the question most asked by many people was. Who shot J.R.?” The hit TV show Dallas ended its season with everyone's favorite villian J.R. Ewing lying on his office floor presumably dead, after being shot by an unknown assailant. Due to an enormous amount of publicity connected with the shooting and who pulled the trigger, the series and actor Larry Hagman who plays J.R.. captured the imagination of people across the country and around the world. The villainess was discovered in mid-November before the eyes of a record tv audience Kristin, J.R.'s sister-in-law and his former mis- tress. shot him but her motives were not immediately made known The public is still watching closely, waiting for any new develop ments in the Ewing family.

Prescott Center College If you are realizing that there is more to your educa tion than a traditional 4-year degree . . . PRESCOTT CENTER COLLEGE offers an interest ing alternative. Here the focus is on active and personalized education. Students work with out- standing faculty in interdisciplinary programs such as Environmental Studies, Explorations in Culture, Outdoor Action and Human Development. Re- search experience and internships are used to as- sist students in developing competence and self- direction in their chosen fields of study. A student faculty ratio of 6 to 1 allows students to become part of our warm, yet demanding educational com- munity. Prescott Center College is located in the pine-foist- ed mountains of central Arizona. However, the true extent of our “campus” has been limited only by the imagination of our students and faculty. During the past year students have studied in remote can- yons of the Southwest, the Pacific Northwest, Baja, Scandinavia and other parts of the world. To learn more about the unusual details of Prescott Center College write or phone: Lawrence Clendenin, Director of Admissions, 220B Grove Ave., Prescott, AZ 86301. Phone (602) 778-2090.

As soon as we decide how we want to live our lives, the sooner we will really fit in. We need not only to fit in to society, but we also need to be acceptable to ourselves. Acceptance must be gained first to ourselves. Once this is gained, others will fit in around us. 1. Kathy Popp prepares to perform at the NACI Homecoming. 2. Traci Sturdevant cheerfully greets her class. It helps to have pleasant attitude toward schoolwork. 3. Enjoying their lunches. John Carboun and Penni Hutter find the pizza rather messy. 4.

Family certainly would be listed in first place by everyone. The influences of teachers and peers also plays an important part in the shaping of goals of students. The 1981 Hassayamper has attempted to visually suggest some of the ways that school life helps students find their places. With this dedication, one teacher is honored, representative of many others at Prescott High School who continually and enthusiastically go beyond what is expected. His caring about the students he teaches has earned him the respect of his peers and his students. He has provided the atmosphere for many new beginnings. Music plays an important role in Mr. Gary Snyder’s life. The French horn and the trumpet are the two instruments that he is mainly interested in. During the football season, Mr. Snyder spends many o his off duty” hours planning the half time shows. He also composes original arrangements for the Jazz and Marching Bands. Besides his involvement in the Music Department, Mr. Snyder is also a senior class sponsor. Mr. Snyder received his Bachelor s and Master s degrees at the (Northern Arizona University. To work his way through college he was employed as an electrician. This summer that knowledge was helpful when Mr. Snyder added a family room to his home. While attending NAG, Mr. Snyder met his wife, Shirley. They were both involved in music. The Snyders have two children, Michael and Rebecca. 1. Taking a break before getting ready for the NAG Homecoming Parade. Mr Snyder enjoys his lunch. 2. As Chairman of the Performing Arts department. Mr. Snyder handles budget requests, coordinates publicity and acts as the communications agent between the administration and the members of his department. 3. The Marching Band travelled to NAG in October to perform at the university's Homecoming. The Band has participated in this event for several years. 4 Gnder Mr Snyder's direction, the Flag Girls get ready to perform at an assembly. This is the first year that the Flag Girls have performed with the bands. 5 Over 300 records were given to the PHS Music Department as part of the estate of Father Leonard Cueller. Father Leonard was chaplain at the V.A. Center until his death. In October. Father George A. Whedbee C.M.F.. from the V.A. Center presented a plaque commemorating the gift. 240 And as Spring breaks through to the fun of summer we find the quiet of Grasshopper Point a peaceful place to be alone and enjoy the beauty of nature. Taking time to look back on life in high school we find a combination of both happy and not so happy memories The people, places and special events which added so much to our lives are never forgotten. Although it is fun to look back on these good old days , we know we can never relive them. While making these memories, we also learned how we fit in. Whether we were involved in sports, studies, or just having a good time we all had our own special place. The knowledge gained in high school will be carried with us for the rest of our lives. Knowledge gained not only from books but knowledge of ourselves also. Our high school years are just a beginning, a stepping stone to our futures.

Yet for 444 days the people of America waited, sometimes with high hopes and others with little hope, for word about the 52 Ameri- can citizens held hostage in Iran. Finally on Sunday. January 18 Iran announced that an agreement had been reached with the United States. That was the beginning of a three day wait that culminated in the Tuesday. January. 20 release of all 52 Americans. All across the country, church bells rang, fam- ilies gathered in churches and synagogues and miles of yellow ribbons decorated trees, cars and homes. It is difficult to think of them as free Ameri cans rather than hostages. For 444 days those 52 women and men were held hostage by a people who did not allow them much more than basic amenities.
