As you turn the pages of this Emeraude, see if you and your friends can say, “We were the real Columbians!” Be proud of your school and be proud of the things you did. The Columbian spirit can be found in all aspects of life at Rainier High School. It means being involved in sports or in activities. It includes the faculty and the people from the community who come out and support our school. Remember though, no matter how involved you have been, you are all Columbians and the Emeraude will recall your memories. 1-2.

Remember the friends, the classes, and all the good times. Spirit is something that doesn't happen by itself. It takes work by everyone involved.

CLASSES “Short or tall we're all Columbians. ” SENIORS -’it Anderses Betty Archibald Daryl Archibald Jeff Atkinson Rod Aost Jim Bacdrc Real Benson Jeff Brown Trina Brown Jim Barton Kerin Basby Shelly Campbell The 1982 Senior class was the first to complete four years in the new Rainier High School. This is the largest class I have seen in a long time graduating from Rainier High School. Sharon Rundell exclaimed. There were 135 graduates. The Senior skip was planned for June. By Oc- tober many Seniors had their personal skips al- ready planned out. A “Dash to Hawaii to the beach or just bummin' around. Since this class had so much spirit and enthusi- asm, they decided to go with the school colors for their Senior gowns. The guys wore the black and girls green. To go along with these colors, the class selected a white rose as their flower. Seniors designated the theme from Mahogany by Diana Ross as their class song. The Senior class designed a jersey for class members to wear. They used a football jersey and picked a design that had all the names of each senior to form an '82'. On the back was class of '82' Rainier High School. Spirit was shown here again because many were sold to help make money for the senior class. The senior class officers were: President, Julie Elbert; Vice President, Cindy Gaston; Secretary, Liz Malychewski; Treasurer, Lynne Scott.

Some of the activities consisted of selling food during football games at the concession stand, selling jackets, raffling off the Cowapa League Championship football, and many others. More people got involved than in the past years. Stephanie Keith sponsored a raffle, Bill Pellham sold the most jackets, and Steve Rose worked every football game in the concession stand. The Junior Class goal was to earn enough money to have a nice prom with a really good band. “As Juniors, we've come a long way since being freshman. We have grown up a lot and dominated Rainier High School more than ever! said Tonya Nofziger. Athletics is something the Juniors always treasured. The Junior class was very outgoing. There are a lot of talented athletes among this very radical class. Hopefully every athlete will have a chance to go to state! stated Mike Jones. No matter what the sport was, Juniors were always there to help pull the team through. Loree Krzmarzick said. “I think the Junior class was very athletic and talented. Our class was really friendly and outgoing. I'm glad I was a part of it!” Don Holmes was glad he was voted President of the Junior class. He said. The Juniors were very competitive. We were hard workers and liked to have a good time. We had quite a bit of talent in our class and were athletic prone. We had many athletic standouts. I think the class of 83” is primo!” T.J.

They also sold posters, key chains, pom poms, and class tee shirts. The class officers did a very good job. The class officers were: Julie Peerboom. Denise Patching, Beth Wagner, and Bonnie Honaker. “The prettiest class officers in the school.” Mrs. Romey was asked if she thought the class officers did their job, she said, yes, they did very well, and were very dependable. The officers were a big help. They were all eager to raise money so that they would have money for the 1982-83 Junior Prom. The Sophomore class was successful in paying off their hundred dollar debt from their Freshman year and earned considerably more toward their Junior year when they will put on the prom. Many classmates participated in all of the sports.

The class of '35' had a fair turnout during Homecoming week. Members of the class selected Stephanie Canning to represent them in Queen Liz Malucheski’s court. Class officers included: President, Rhonda Campbell, Vice Presdent, Lonnie Dawkins, Secretary, Sally Blunk. This class should be a great addition to the high school in coming years.

There were 11 students in the class and they worked in a variety of skill areas. The philosophy of the classroom was for each person and each student to be accepted as a whole person. In order for this to happen, the students were helped to realize their full capabilities. They belived that all individuals should be accepted for their contributions. The teachers and students wish to thank the student body and staff for their assistance over the past years. 1. Janelle Stauffer making a paper chain fer a wedding. 2.

The bus drivers, cooks, secretaries, and janitors are all people that help in the complete education of students. A new intercom system was installed at the high school after Christmas that included piped in music between classes and a new bell sound. Under the direction of Dale Johnson a competency test was written and given to all students. Although it only measured sixth grade level in reading, writing, analysing, and computing, it was a step toward insuring all graduates were competent. The district completed a new gymnasium for Hudson Park Elementry which freed up the high school gym for more classes. Also the new shop classrooms expanded our space for offerings in wood and metal shop. In Febuarv we all welcomed Lee Brunquist as our new superintendent from Junction City. Oregon. 1.

He came to Rainier in November 1373 the previous superintendent, Wendell Curry, took a job with the Oregon State Department of Education Significant contributions made during his administration were development of special education and guidance and counseling programs, expansion of elementary school curricula, and expansion of shop programs. Facilities built during Mr. Cermak's tenure included the Rainier High School and Hudson Park Elementary schools including a swimming pool and deluxe auditorium which were sorely needed by the community. His plans for retirement included using Rainier as a heme base while travelling, teaching courses through the University of Oregon extension, and spending time at their cabin in Ocean Park. Washington. He also planned on writing a book about his amusing and heart touching experiences in teaching. John spent 41 years in education. He started out in a one room school outside of Lewiston, Idaho where he spent two years. He was acting Superintendent in Idaho one year, and Superintendent of small schools in Peck, Idaho for another year.John also spent 22 years in Hermiston as Director of Elementary Education and Junior High Principal, one year at the University of Idaho, and six years as a teacher in Sandpoint,Idaho before coming to Rainier. When asked if there was anything he wished he had accomplished that he didn't, he said, “I would like to have built the tennis courts. The money just did not seem tc be there after all the necessities. He felt the hardest part of his job in Rainier was compiling and passing the budget. His successor will have the benefit of a tax base. Mr. Cermak enjoyed most the fellowship he had with the people and staff in Rainier. He sees growth ahead fer cur district and felt we were well on our way to becoming the best in the state. The key factor has been our excellent staff. he said. The Buck Stops Here a famous Harrv Truman slogan, was what he tried to live by. The superintendent ha: :: assume responsibility for the entire school district. If something goes wrong, it is his responsibility. remarked Cermak in our interview. He left with no regrets and felt good about leaving the district well off financially and with good facilities. He her: 1 his successor would continue to strive for growth curriculum and harmony in the community as he did during his term. A reception attended by school board members, teachers, administrators, family, and friends was held on January 10. 1931 at Briarcliff with a brief program honoring Mr. Cermak. The administrators gave him the chair he sat in during his term as superintendent and Richard Risener. Tim Cre peau. Rick Lance, and Mel Gamble gave speeches to thank him for au .e had done for education in Rainier.

Foreign Language Reading Linda Twedt Anne Rome? Swimming Health Daryle Alwine Linda Qnartly For the first time in many years there were no new additions to the staff at Rainier High School. In the math department Mr. Muck purchased more computer equipment including a new computer with dual disk drive and one without, two new disc interfaces, and a daisy wheel printer. A new intermediate level programming class was available for the first time. Students could then take two years of computer programming. The English department struggled to change its elective program that had been in existence for eleven years. Students had been required to take two years of specified subject matter and one year of elective. Now they will take three years of specified subject matter and a fourth for college bound students only. Social studies remained much the same, students were still required to take four years including personal finance classes. Juniors were required to take one quarter of state and local government. In the health department a semester of General Health was required of all freshman and sophomores as a prerequisite to First Aide, Athletic Injuiries,Diseases, Mental Health, Nutrition, Fitness, and Recreation, or Community Health. Science offered Chemistry to juniors and physics to seniors giving physics students the benefit of Algebra II experince. Advanced physical science and biology classes continued to be offered. A new gym was completed and ready for use which greatly improved scheduling of physical education classes and allowed intramurals at noon. Home Economics offered Independent Living class for males and females that covered cooking, sewing, how to rent an apartment, and other aspects of living on one's own. A community Advisory Council was formed for Business Education, their job was to review and recommend additions and deletron of classes in the program. Their input was much appreciated. The buiness lab continued to offer courses in 12 areas. Twenty-four students enrolled in Gregg shorthand. Other classes included: typing, accunting, and simulated office Work experince was also available. The new shop gave space that was severely needed. The shop program consisted of one-quarter classes providing training in several aspects of building a house as plumbing, electricity, concrete masonry, and various handyman classes to keep up one's house. Some students attended Lower Columbia College for its logging classes. The Interchange program reamerged in a new form. Each department offered advanced freshman sections of their required classes including English taught by Beth Hunnicutt, American Studies by Dave Hourigan, Geometry by Shirley Jensen, and physical scince taught by Walt Humphrey. Students were admitted by test scores and teachers recommendation. The art department continued to do outstanding work in graphic arts saving the district quite a bit of money on printing. Language lab was installed in the foreign language room although not connected until after Christmas. This made it possible for students to gain more practice in speaking French and Spanish. The facilities still did not include doors, theft, vandalism, and sound problems continued to disrupt the educational process.

SPORTS ‘The Thrill of Victory..The Agony of Defeat VARSITY FOOTBALL The varsity football team was not expected to do as well as they have in the past because of an inexperienced line. However, many felt they could go undefeated and have a shot at the Cowapa League Championship. This forecast proved to be true because they went the entire season undefeated. When the season started, in August, the team had two main goals: one to win the Cowapa League Championship and two to make the Oregon State playoffs. They also tried to make team and individual improvement. When these goals were reached they set new ones. Their next goal was to finish undefeated. They needed two wins. After the regular season was over, they continued to make even more goals for state. Everyone felt they had the confidence and capabilities it would take to do very well at state. There were several injuries that occurred during the season. Mark Peerboom had a torn ligament in his knee. He was out for a week but was still able to play. Neal Sorenson bruised his shoulder and also was out for a week, but still continued to play in all games. He said, “It still hurts every once in awhile, but I'm ok. Also John Haas tore a ligament in his knee. It bled inside, so he had to have surgery and was out all season.John was asked how he felt about being out this year and he said, “I was very excited about this season especially after our first three games. I was very disappointed when I got hurt. It is very hard to sit out and watch my teammates go after Tillamook knowing it was going to be the most important game of our season. I hope they go all the way and stay healthy. A main factor in their winning was their positive attitude and ability to work well together. The team consisted of 16 seniors and 40 underclassmen, with a total of 28 returning lettermen. Another factor was the coaching staff. Assistant coaches were head line and offensive line coach: Jiggs Burnett, defensive line: Tim McGladrey, wide receivers and defensive backs: Gary Thompson, quarterback and receivers: Dave Hourigan. tight ends and defensive ends Manny McGladrey, a volunteer, and Head Coach Wes Bigham in charge of line backers, quarterbacks and offensive backs. When coach Bigham was interviewed and asked in a few words how he would describe the team, he said, “Damn Tough!! 1. Injured. John Haas never missed a game, as he cheered the team on. 2.

The players lake a break. 3. The 2:'.uab:ar.s arc cheered on by the famous Rainier beer bottle. The Columbian JV football team completed their season with a 7-1 record. This year there were 35 players on the JV team, the largest sauad Rainier has ever fielded. The JV's learned they could play stingy defense in the second half of their first game against Gladstone. They continued their strong defense, not allowing appoint for 18 consecutive scoreless quarters, running their record to 4-1. The highlight was a goal line stand inside the one yard line against St. Helens. Astoria also tried to score from inside the 15 yard line three times, but failed. Another step forward was taken in the Castle Rock game, when the team came from behind to win. The offense drove the ball 65 yards, scoring with 11 seconds left to win 26-21. The JV's offense was potent as they outscored games. No league opponent was able to score against the JV's. The JV's offense was potent as they outscord their opponents 181 to 43. While the running game was dominant, the Columbians passing game usually had over 50 percent in completions. The success of the passing game kept opponents' defenses “honest”. The goal of the JV program is to develop players to carry on the Rainier football tradition. This team met that goal.

The Freshman team try to enforce their defense. The 28 players of close-knit freshman football team prepared for each game mentally and physically. Their goals were to improve with every game and for each individual to give one hundred percent in everything he did. The team's record was two wins, four losses, and one tie. The team was a third and fourth quarter hall dub, working hard, but mostly scoring in the last half of the game. Improvement was a big factor in the season. They accomplished most of what they set out to do. Team member Gary Bohannon said, “I'm really glad that our team did well, but next year we'll do better. I'd like to thank Mr. Benton and Mr. Walt for the great job they did. According to coach Benton, the Gladstone game was the most satisfying. The team came from behind to tie Gladstone with three seconds left. In this game Joey Hulsey played his best game ever. Another player, Brian Miles, did his best in the Forest Grove game. At the end of the year, Tim Hale, Guy Tow, and Eric Bolden were tied for the most yards of rushing. “I thought our team was pretty good, said Carlie Kennedy, the freshman quarter back, “We never did play a really good first half, but we tried hard. Our coaches were good screamers, they helped us a lot. Hopefully we will improve the next three years and take state!” Coach Walt described the team as having a lot of raw talent.They developed as they gained experince and knowledge of the game of football. The team worked hard and had a lot of spirit! They learned what it takes to win. Guy Tow developed as the best leader. This has been a great group of athletes to be involved with. We Expect great things from them in the future!” stated Coach Benton.

Both girls and boys Varsity and Jayvee squads boasted the largest ever turnout. The girls cross country team, led by Coach Lynn Bonser, had a successful season. With no returning seniors, the girls squad consisted of juniors, sophomores, and three freshmen. “They were a young team with very little experience. Only two of twelve members had run more than a year. The girls gained a lot of valuable experience this year, and since they won't lose anyone to graduation, they should be a power to contend with next year,” said Coach Bonser. For the Varsity girls, their fourth place finish at District was disappointing but nothing to be ashamed of in the powerful Cowapa League. The girls placed behind St. Mary’s, Seaside, and Clatskanie. Both St. Mary’s and Seaside placed high in State competition. The Jayvee girls squad gave a commendable performance, earning a third place at the District meet. Individual Varsity District placing: Diane Miles, 8th: Dana Sanders, 17th; Dena Le Sollen. 21st; Linda Mason. 23rd; Cathy Mason, 39th: Kim Womack, 47th; Denise Patching, 51st. Individual Jayvee placing: Jenny Scott, 6th; Julie Peerboom, 12th: Cathy Tracy, 23rd; Ann Cramer, 24th; Sonja Hansen, 25th. Coach Jay Davies summed up the boys’ season by saying, “Their youth and numerous injuries during the season held them back considerably. The boys didn’t run very well in the meets this season, but at district ran well enough to place third behind two good teams. They just ran out of time.” There were some outstanding performances made at district. Senior Vince Whatley and sophomore Ron Lucas were the real surprises, not to mention good runs made by freshmen Scott Anderson and Dan Cemulini. Jayvee runners also gave other schools a run for their money’taking third place. The team was led by Scott Farmer who placed third.

Once the team gets excited to win, there is usually no stopping them, as proven in the St. Helens, Tillamook, and Neahkahnie games. Although I couldn't play this year I was very excited to be the team's manager,” said Colleen Thomas. Team members Jeannie Thomas, Angela Newkirk. Cammi Triplett, Shellie Rea. Tammy Sherlock. Cindy Gaston. Laurie McReary, Tracie Mason, Judy Elbert, Kim Staton, and Loree Krzmarzick brought different personalities and a lot of experience to the team. At Rainier's last home game the first game was tough. They lost 14-16. The first game we played really well. It was tight all the way through, said coach Pam Burnett. “But we seemed to let up a little in the second game and we made too many errors.” The statistician for the Varsity team was Marcella Guisinger. Colleen Thomas was the score keeper for Varsity as well as being the manager. The coach was Pam Burnett. The Columbians had 9 wins and 7 heartbreaking losses.

VARSITY BOYS BASKETBALL Dennis McGlone was the only returning varsity player. Other players included four juniors and one sophomore. The Columbians played with a lot of inexperience most of the year. Individually John Oliva and Dennis McGlone had very good seasons. Juniors. Doug Coffman and Jeff Elbert had good years as did sophomore Mike Danchok. The Columbians made many improvements and trained six players for the following year, Doug Coffman, Doug Knox. Jeff Elbert, Tim Navarro, Mike Danchok and John Hamlik. The record was even, 10 losses and 10 wins. The pre-season was 4-2 and the league was 6-8. The three highlights of the season were beating Kalama and Gladstone at the Christmas Tuornament, beating Neah-kah- nie.on their home court for the first time in five years, and beating Clatskanie at home by 10 points. Award winners were: Most Valuable Player, Dennis McGlone with 52 stars; Mr. Hustle. Dennis McGlone; Mr. Defense, John Oliva; Most Improved, Mike Danchok; and Best Attitude. David Lovegren.

On the J.V. level the win-loss record is not important. The point is for the players to develop skills and gain fundamentals for future varsity play. It is important that all who practice play. The coach. Jiggs Burnett emphasized fundamentals and as a result only a man-to-man defense was used. He also used the 1-2-2 zone press and the 3-2 zone press. These were used because Coach Binder wanted them, and in the past they were neglected. The Junior Varsity’s goals were to play a good man-to-man defense and to learn the press the varsity will use in the future. The coaching staff was pleased with the progress of the team. They played close games in the second half of the season. Coach Burnett said, I feel the team made great strides this year and could be strong as varsity performers with the proper motivation, leadership, and desire to improve. FRESHMAN BOYS BASKETBALL The team finished on top of the Cowapa League standing with 11-3 league record and 15-4 overall mark. They used a pressing, patient, fast break style to out score opponents by an average of 13.3 points per game. They averaged 62 points each game while holding opponents to a meager 49. The season began on a sour note. They dropped their opening game to Cathlamet, but immediatedly the season turned sweet when they won eight straight games before finally losing to Astoria on the road. The Columbians later averaged the loss to Astoria on our home court to gain a tie for first place.” said coach Crowston. Attitude was important. Plenty of hard work was the main reason for their success. As coach Crowston noted, “this group was constantly working hard and seemed to always remain humble which is vital in basketball. Leading the scoring parade was Chuck Muck averaging 19.4 points each game followed by Mike Porter with 11.6 and Greg Pellham with 11.2. Mike Edwards. Barry Keith, Ed Hayden, Jeff Perron, Bill Burnham and Scott Howell also scored in double figures. The will balanced scoring was attributed by passing the ball to the open man. Rebounding was an important key. “Without looking at the score you could check the stats for the rebounds and see if we were going to win. If we had two people in double figures we won big. If we only had a few you knew we had lost. It was hard and at times it’s easy to letdown so we always had to be aware of what was happening, said Crowston. Another key to success was defense. “The margin of victory ratio was some what misleading against the tougher league teams. Our defense would keep us in the ballgame and out press would allow some easy opportunities at the offensive end due to steals and recoveries. The press was most effective in the fourth quarter. We made it our game plan to press every minute whether we were ahead or behind,” said coach Crowston. Mike Howe and Troy Turnbull made important contributions, but were slowed down by injuries. When asked about the group’s future prospects, the coach replied, “very good,especially if they all get stronger either by hard work or lifting weights. Lack of strength was a problem though.” 1.

VARSITY GIRLS BASKETBALL “They had the talent to go a long way, but in close games they seemed to let too many little things bother them. Half the time I don't think they were ready to play the game mentally.” said spectator Mike Danchok. Benjamin Starbuck Eliwanger the IV said. The team had a lot of spirit and potential. They really seemed to try hard. I'm sure they could have been better if they hadn't been messed up right in the middle of the season by the 'snow-days’. Varsity statistician. Julie Peerboom said. The team was well-balanced in talent and had their low points and high points. Sonja Hansen was also a varsity statistician. Kathy Sorensen performed good leadership on the basketball squad. The team earned 400 dollars selling Rainier Columbian Mugs. This money was used to pay for uniforms and equipment. The strongest points of their game were playing defense and rebounding. “I think toward the end of the season, the team's attitude had improved so much that it increased thp enthusiasm and encouraged everybody to work harder and get along better. All of this made the season worth playing and one to remember. said varsity player. Liz Malychewski. Coach Robinson felt the team was more physically prepared at times, than mentally. Sometimes the team was tcc aggressive which get them in foul trouble, but you must be aggressive to win. The girls went into almost every game with enthusiasm. With 10 players on the Robinson said they were competitive.

There were a lot of fast breaks which made the games close in the early quarters. Some of the games were only lost by ten points. The JV's finished with a 6-13 win-loss record.. Janiece Ferdon showed good leadership throughout the season. Julie Peerboom put forth a lot of effort. Taunja Berquam and Colleen Thomas played one to two quarters of JV and three to four quarters of Varsity. This left six remaining JV players. Towards the end of most every game the girls gave it their best shot until the very end. Joanne Hudson said. I think we have improved a lot this season. JV I player. Janiece Ferdon. said, “The team had a lot of enthusiasm. I think when we really thought about it. and worked together, we could really get the ball rolling into the hoop. Mr. Robinson, the varsity coach, really helped out.

The team improved every game they played. With ten players on the team, they were always learning. The team got along well most of the time, hut they did have their disagreements. They benefited personally as they learned to work together. Kim Womack peformed good leadership with Cana Sanders and Kristi Rea having the potential also. The team's interest was very high. Most of the time the girls worked hard at practice. My team was a combination of untrained talent and over-aggressiveness. They came a long way. but still have far to go. stated Coach Stauffer. The team's goal was to finish with a winning season as good responsible growing young adults. Statistics were kept by Laurie Tift.

WRESTLING The Varsity wrestling team pinned their way to fame this season with a fantastic dual meet record of sixteen wins-zerc losses. At the Cowapa League tournament they proved again their expertise by taking the Cowapa League championship. The District meet also proved encouraging by their second place finish in front of six other District schools. They sent more wrestlers per team to state than any other school in the district. Nine wrestlers from Rainier were sent on to state meet held on March 4th, 5th. and Gth. At the state meet four wrestlers placed in the top five. The teams' fourth place finish made them eligible forthefirststate trophy Rainier wrestlers have taken home in fifteen years. Since Mark Elbert took the state championship in 1976 Rainier has been unsuccessful turning out a state champ. Dale Earlywine broke the seven year slump with his first place finish at the State Wrestling Tournament at 123. Next in line Bruce Mulfcrd, 178. and Mark Peerboom, Heavyweight, both had second place finishes. Freshman Mike Earlywine took fifth at 98.

SWIM TEAM The dedication, pride, and work that goes into being a Rainier High School Swim Team Member is hard to comprehend. Two and a half hours of practice a day that includes an average of four thousand yards a practice is a lot of work. The 1981-82 Swim Team exuded the dedication which proved the pride they took in being really good. The girls' team ended their season with a great record. They were proud and are looking forward to furture seasons. The boys, with exceptional effort, had the best record yet for their season. Some very impressive records were met and surpassed. Almost every member of the team set a record and either met it or exceeded it. These are also reasons for pride in the time and effort put into to being a good swimmer. Swim Team Coach was Billie Wallace. She has coached here at Rainier High School for four years. She really enjoys her coaching. The team members really look up to Billie. Anjela Newkirk summed it up by saying, “Billie can relate to the kids really well. It’s probably because she acts like one, half of the time. But It’s the other half of the time, when she works us so hard that shows what kind of coach she is. Just look at our season records.” Eight Rainier High Swimmers went to state. Cathy Mason, Linda Mason. Anjela Newkirk, Tonya Nofziger, George Moore, Tony Newkirk, Scott Reed, and Bonny Holmes. Tonya Nofziger did an exceptionally impressive job at the state meet. She was the first Rainier girl to ever win a state championship. Tonya took the Oregon State title in the 50 yard freestyle competition. The race was swam in 24.83 seconds-a school record. Donny Holmes placed thirteenth in the 50 freestyle on the boys’ side of the competition. Also, the boys 2001.M. relay team consisting of Donny Holmes, Tony Newkirk, George Moore, and Scoot Reed-competed at State. Unfortunately they were disqualified beacuse of and illegal turn. Had the boys finished, they would have done quite well, for their time placed eleventh. The girls and Boys’ swim teams both did a very superior job this season. Both teams took the Boys’ and Girls' Cowapa League Championships. They also placed second at district. The members worked hard and did an excellent job to prove that they were the best. 1. 1st row- Manager Donny Attctt. Kim Ervin. 2nd row- Coach Billie Wallace. Sue Eoidel. Ann Rusche. Stephanie Keith.

I Baseball team ended the season with a 16-4 win-loss record. They placed second in the Cowapa league for the third consecutive year. Coach Gordon Crowston said the team started the season very fast with a twelve and zero win-loss record. That fast start proved to be their own worst enemy in the end. The boys hit a batting slump in the last four of eight games shattering their undefeated record. Those losses included losing two games to second place St. Helens. Crowston added, “the slump led to a letdown in the field that contributed to a lot of errors.” “They were a talented group as far as offense goes,” Coach Crowston exclaimed. “If either pitching and defense improves they will be a factor in diciding the Cowapa League Championship in the next two years.” 1.

Coach Gary Robinson's team consisted of twelve players, all freshmen and sophomores. According to Coach Robinson everyone showed a lot of improvement over the course of the season. The guys were short on pitching, but Eddie Hayden and Barry Keith did a real good job. Mr. Robinson thought the boys displayed a very good attitude even though they lost a majority of their games. The team was pretty close and that factor really helped the team's attitude. No one really got down on each other. They were usually pretty enouraging, Coach Robinson commented. Looking back on the record book after the game they usually found one inning in which the boys didn’t play well. Mental errors on the field during that inning cost them a lot of close games. “It was a successful season, although we did lose most of our games, you can learn j ust as much from losing as from winning, said Coach Robinson. 1.

Head Coach Len Robinson, assisted by volunteer Chuck Cathcart, said that in the last four weeks of the season the players made more of an effort, put out by each player, so that the teams attitude toward winning was much more intense. Contributing factors effecting the teams performance during the season was hindered by adverse weather conditions and multiple injuries throughout the season. Injuries suffered consisted of Neal Sorensons dislocated shoulder. Tom Yates pulled groin. Don Holmes sprained ankle, and lots of sore arms. Fourteen boys were selected to participate on the varsity squad The team had seven returning players that made up a major part of the team. There were eight seniors, five juniors, and one sophomore, Gary Malychewski, chosen for the varsity squad. Varsity club statisticians were seniors Kathy Sorensen and Marcella Guisinger and sophomore Julie Peerboom. These girls put out alot of hard work in their spare time to keep the records accurate. During the season the boys performance at practice and at games was pretty inconsistant, but got much better during th last four weeks. “The teams potential was rated very high and had to make their own breaks to be successful, said Coach Robison.

Kathy Kellar showed great leadership throughout the season. There were two seniors, three juniors, seven sophomores, and one freshman. At the end of the season, the girls played the women faculty for a lot of excitement. Although the faculty came on strong, the girls Softball Team came out with the win, 10-2.

TRACK Thirteen boys and seven girls returned to the track squad, coach Jay Davies was very confident. All together there were 50 students out for track. Jay Davies has been coaching for seven years at Rainier High. He had two excellent assistants this season, Jim Walt and Lynn Bonser. I thought the coaches did a great job. They were very supportive for everybody and were always there to help you. This encouraged you to work harder and to do your best,” said track runner Liz Malychewski. There were two outstanding atheletes that showed good leadership, Vince Whatley and Cindy Gaston. The team worked hard during practices, although they had their radical moments. When Coach Davies was asked if any underclassmen would be a benefit to our school in the up coming years, he replied, They are all a benefit if they continue to work hard in the program!. Rainier sent seven athletes to the state track meet at Mr. Hood Community College. The girls 400 meter relay placed 3rd. This included Joanne Hudson, Dianna Miles, Taunja Berquam, and Cindy Gaston. Liz Malychewski competed in the long jump but didn’t place for the finals. She set a personal best at 16' 5 . Travis Coalmen threw the javelin but didn’t place.

The first half of the year Tammy Franck, Sue Foidel, and Millie Stanley were photographers and the remaining seven did layouts and wrote copy. We were one of very few schools who completely laid out and pasted up the final copy of pictures and typesetting. The new staff members including Deanna Vollbrtsen, typesetter; Sue Foidel, photographer; Sonya Hansen, Cathy Mason, and Colleen Thomas attended a full day training session at Portland Community College in September. All staff members sold ads and each earned ten dollars for their efforts. More ads were sold than ever before. Also in September the staff sponsored a yearbook signing party in the Briarcliff Commons that varied from 150 to 200 in attendance. Over Christmas Vacation some class members travelled to Clackamas Town Center and Jantzen Beach for a 14 hour shopping spree. Tammy Franck and Sue Foidel prepared a slide show in January to entertain the student body. Students took the pictures, developed the slides, and made their own sound track. It was the last show as color in our book was being discontinued. YEARBOOK The editor. Jay Anderson and advisor Sharon Rundell worked very hard in planning an exciting book. The unique cover design and clever use of the school’s emblem resulted in evaluation compliments and they hoped the best book yet. In March after a reorganization of staff responsibility, Mrs Rundell added Jeff Atkinson (foreign exchange student from Australia) to the staff. He assisted us in the photography department. Senior Shirleena Mills who graduated in March, was ad editor again. Carrie Smith returning senior assisted all of us in proofreading and improving copy and captions as well as doing her own sections. Editor Jay Anderson and Ass't editor Millie Stanley attended a four day workshop at Western Oregon State in August to prepare for the year. They both gained many ideas that are reflected in this book. The staff had a lot of growing to do, but all learned a lot about producing a yearbook and still had some fun while meeting deadlines and earning money. 1.

The trip was to Canada. HONOR SOCIETY The Canada trip was to Victoria and Vancouver. The group was gone for five days. Approximately twenty four people attended the trip. It was more of an educational endevour, rather than a pleasure trip. The students stayed in a Youth Hostile. This is a place where wanderers stay. They traveled to the Groux Mountain Tramway for viewing and hiking. They learned about a new form of government and will travel to a museum that deals with all five senses. Including smell and touch. Another trip that was taken by National Honor Society was to some museum in Portland. The group of eighteen went to the Oregon Historical Society’s and the Portland Art Museum.

Donny Holmes was chairman, Julie Peerboom was Vice-chairman in trianing, Carol Sorenson was scheduling chairman, Ken Smith was Publicity chairman and Foreign Exchange Student Jeff Atkinson was volunteer and recognition chairman. The blood drive was a definite success. One hundred and nineteen individuals gave blood. “I’m always proud of Rainier's National Honor Society but I'm especially proud of our members this year; they initiated and participated in some new service projects rather than concentrating on themselves, said Mrs. Hunnicutt National Honor Society Officers were as follows: President - Chris Elbert, Vice President - Julie Elbert, and Treasurer - Warren Hack. 1.

Whether you enjoyed the snorts, or turned to the editorial first, the paper had a good variety of coverage and had something for everyone to enjoy. The creation of our school newspaper took a lot of care and thought on the part of every member of the Journalism staff. It took dedication and pride for our school. The Columbian staff exemplified these qualities. This years Columbian staff included; Trade Mason,-Editor, Bill Richie,- Ad Editor, Tammy Franck-Photo Editor, Reporters Marcie Bater, Holly Leatherman, Chris Norred, Cory Oatman, Sherrie Oliveria, Pat Pickett, Kristen Warner.

Three outstanding plays were presented to the students of Rainier High School. They were all comedies and were enjoyed by many. Hard work and dedication by many made these plays successful. To practice several times a week and to learn lots of dialogue and difficult and time consuming duties that go with acting. Why do so many students jump at the chance to act? The result of hours of practice was the opening night when everything magically fell into place. After teh final night of a play, the cast usually celebrated by enjoying pizza at Pietro’s Pizza Parlor. The first play of the year was “The Great All American Musical Disaster” which was put on December 3rd and 4th. The cast put on their own make-up and costumes. The actors and actresses were from the whole school with most from the drama class. They practiced daily. The cast was proud of the job they did, and showed their good spirits at the cast party. The biggest reward of pulline a eood plav off is the audience reaction. The friends, parents, and relatives all showed their appreciation of The Great All American Musical Disaster” with laughter and applause. The second play “Charley's Aunt was shown on February 18th and 20th. Although a lot of preparation went into The Great All American Disater”, even more went into the production of Charley’s Aunt”. Practice was held three times a week after school. Nine seniors and and one junior put all they had into their parts and the result was a delightful, slapstick comedy. Although some might have have had trouble following the plot, the antics of Fabberly had the audience rolling in the aisles. The last play of the year on May Gth and 7th was a hit also 15 juniors and 12 seniors participating. The play was called , “Can We Do It? ‘‘Can We Do It” was a student version of National Lampoon's “Animals House”. It was all about the crazy happenings of a so-called fraternity house that is trying to establish itself in society. It contained everything form gypsies, boxers, and hoodlums to dancers and kangaroos. The play was very well-liked by the audience. Overall I thought that it was a simply splendid play!” said Valerie Reeves. The turnout doubled by the final night. The cast of “Can We Do It” were both relieved and pleased at the job that was done. Mr. Webly comments. “We had a fairly successful year in Drama. Tons of seniors are graduating which will leave us a little thin. Most of us had a pretty good time getting the plays together. We made enough money to buy awards and pizza. SPEECH True Vulcans Don't Cry Out Question; what has 28 legs, rambles about the countryside, and baffles inanely in front of vast audiences?

They did these jobs on their own free time- after school, between classes, and on weekends. The wrestlers were responsible for the new ramp and stairs in the football field area for the spectators and participants at the games. They were also behind the student store scene, keeping it open as much as possible for our use. Other money raising activities included selling candy, pepperoni. and firewood. “We were always doing something , commented Coach Jacobson, the clubs' advisor. The wrestling club also sponsored Rainier’s Kid Wrestling program and the Community calander project.

OUTDOOR SCHOOL Outdoor School was a planned learning experience in which the sixth graders spent one week in the wilderness to learn about nature and carry out certain responsibilities that were given to them. Outdoor School was held at Camp Rilea, which is located just out of Astoria. The camp was a military base, and was on the beach. Camp Rilea was a good choice for Outdoor School because it provided many different aspects of nature. The kids that attended Outdoor School came from the three trade schools in our area; Goble Grade School, Rainier Grade chool, and Hudson Park Grade School. There were about 160 kids and twenty five counselors. John Graves, Margaret Cemulini, and Lorainne Winters made up the head staff members who coordinated the Outdoor School program. The Chance of a Life Time. The counselors were carefully chosen individuals. They were selected after filling out an application and participating in an interview with the coordinators. The participants were asked questions such as what kind of camping experience they have had. After the counselors were chosen, they had meetings to become familier with the techniques of counseling. At the camp, the kids were taken each morning and afternoon to field study classes where they learned all about nature. Some of the classes were taught were water, animals, weather, soil, and many others. With the knowledge the kids learned from these classes they got a very broad perspective on nature. Also, the counselors taught different types of recreational activities such as games, fire building, canoeing, fishing, and tracking. Awards were given each day for different things accomplished by certain cabin groups. Every evening seemed to be the most enjoyed time for both the staff and the kids. This time was campfire. It involved skits that were put on by both staff and kids alike. Songs were led and sung by John Graves, Russell Pickett, and Sid Smith. Everyone participated and had a great time too. Everyone involved with ODS 1982 thought it was a great success. The kids learned a lot, as did the counselors. Everyone was pleased and excited at the extradinary job that was done. It was the best Outdoor School that I’ve ever been involved withTTTT!” Commented John Graves (Chiton). 1.

Don’t Quit When things go wrong as they sometimes will. When the road your trudging seems all up hill. When the funds are low and the debts are high. And you want to smile, but you have to sigh. When care is pressing you down a bit. Rest if you must but don’t you quit. Life is queer with its twists turns as everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a failure turns about when he might have won had he stuck it out: Don’t give up though the pace seems slow you may suceed with another blow. Success is failure turned inside out - The silver tint of the clouds of doubt. And you never can tell how close you are. It may be near when it seems so far: So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit - It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit. Author - Unknown Harry FHA-VA-CONV.

It was chosen to help show how a person in Rainier High School develop s into a Columbian. The Emeraude Staff spent long hours working on ideas to show how people change throughout the year. This took hard work, but most of all patience when things didn’t go right. One day I observed my whole staff whipping out pages like mad, but the next they would be in a rut. I remember coming back from an urgent errand once to find only two people in the class. The only problem was that they weren’t even on the staff. The staff was made up of ten students, including a foreign exchange student from Australia. Even though there were five photographers, sometimes they were spread pretty thin with things happening all at the same time. And while copy for some pages was acceptab !e on the first try, others had to be rewritten over and over again. One of the ways we paid off the yearbook was by selling ads to businesses around the community. The staff took a day off from school to sell ads and we were supposed to meet at a certain bowling alley when finished. The only problem was, half of us ended up at K M Bowl while the other half of the staff ended up at Triangle Bowl a mile away. Even though it turned out to be a long day, we sold a record amount of ads. One of the unique things about our yearbook is that we did everything but print the book. While some yearbooks allow the printer to do their lay-outs as well as print their book, the Emeraude staff did all of its own typesetting and paste up. The Emeraude would like to say thanks to Murl Arts, Cinaci’s, and Fred Bell for their help with the photography, to the American Yearbook Company for their help with ideas and special effects in printing our book, and to all of the advertisers and patrons who helped support our book.
