Nellie, I love you. Do you hear me? I love you! And I love you too. Honestly I do- Please let me go! Please let me go! Pure, unadulterated corn! Is anybodygoing to believe that a middle-aged French plant- er on an American held island during the Second World War falls in love with an American nurse, only to be turned down after she discovers he was once married to a native girl and had two children? The planter then decides to go off on a hazardous mission, which turns the tide of the war in favor ofthe U.S. and convinces the nurse that nothing really matters except that he loves her and she loves him. Actually, this is all easy to swallow in contrast to the second- ary plotwhich involvesa bland lieutenantwho meets a native girl who takes all of five seconds to fall in love with him, can't speak a word of English, and dances very nicely for him. The lieutenant is killed and the girl is left with her tears. Coupled with lines like: He has got a chance, hasn't he? Of course. There's always a chance, it's easy to come to the conclusion that South Paczfc is a corny play. Yet in a manner which some must have found surprising, the play evolved into something beautiful. On the nights of March 17, 18, 24, and 25, in the cafetorium, the corn dis- solved into warmth, and the vitality of Rodgers and Hammer- stein's South Paclfc suddenly appeared on the stage. The sailors' dance, which took forever to work out and was still f doubtful, came off as an accomplished number, even with one dancer dragging a damaged leg. The child-like romantics between Emile DeBeque and nurse Nellie Forbush, always good for a giggle during rehersal, became more sensitive and less humorous. The stage crew finally learned how to move the sets quietly and keep from being picked up by the microphones. Even the anticipation of parties after every show failed to dampen the produc- tion. Each performance was like opening night, and judging by audience reaction, opening night was excellent. Six weeks ofwhat must have seemed hopeless rehearsals had somehow bound sixty-odd people into a unified organization that transformed an unbearbly corny play into something beauti- ful. It caught, as some people noted, the true feeling of South Pacific. Some of the audience even cried. In charge of the organiZationwasMr. Ron Childers, direc- tor, odd-job doer, and occasional smiler, Mr. Alan Lund and Mrs. Margaret Lieberg, musical directors: Laurie Farber, student director and worrierg Steve Burton, stage manager and janitor: and Diana Sullivan, lighting technician. The actors that these people were in charge of included: Sharon Thompson and Leslie Baker as Nellie Forbushg Bob Julien and Randy Olsen as Emile DeBequeg Jeff Sunde and Mike Bacigalupi as Lt.

Disc Jockeys, collegiate, pro and semi-pro football and basketball players, were molded together to form the KJR All-Americans basketball team. The All Americans came, saw and conquered an explos- ive faculty team by a score of 62-59. The Totem faculty boasted of such great stars as Vernell Chandler, John Stupey, Roy Felstad, Ralph Sherwood, Gary Eilers, Fred Bendix, Ron Andresen, Al Adatto, Dick Jenkins,Arnie Torgerson and Coach Fred Knoell. Seniors Sue Jensen, Dennis Walters, and Larry Ward arranged the year's most unforgettable game with the cooperation of KJR's Pat O'Day. The game was held to raise money to pay kidney machine expenses for Carlos Clar, Spanish teacher. ASB president Walters presented Mr. Clar with a check for 51385 at the elections assem- bly. The game was a hard fought battle yet the faculty couldn't stop the football type attack of the All Ameri- cans. Pep and cheerleading efforts came from the Misses Agather, Alma, Brown, Kruger, and Tarr plus Mrs. Mc- Dade and Mrs. Sanders. The faculty was so wild about the game they want to do it again. So Sammamish has asked to be put on the KJR All Americans schedule for next year.

With a football player's strength and an outfield- er's nonchalance, R. J. Williams strolls up to the plate. He steps into the batter's box, takes a few practice swings and calmly awaits the pitch. The pitcher winds up and delivers. Once again, R.J. connects. As he casually trots around the bases, the ball sails over the ditch for another home run. R. J. hit eight home runs in the first ten games of the season. Scouts from the San Francisco Giants and the Houston Astros expressed an interest in R.J.'s baseball talents. He has been approached to play football for the U of W, WSU and all but one of the colleges in the state of Washington. Outfielder Williams led the return of eight of last year's regulars: Don Gonzales, Dan Leber, Phil Parsons, Jerry Berges, Bill Thomas, Chuck Joines and Mike Jones. Third year letterman and batting champ R.J. led the '66 squad to second place in the KingCo League. R. J., Kummer, Berges, Bever, and Hiles warm up before a game. Bob LaCount makes the putout. Last year's junior varsity contributed Bob La- Count, Gil Hiles, Greg Kummer and Ray Pace. Bradd Bever came on as a double threat both at the plate and on the mound. Sophomore Tommy .lull rounded the varsity roster. Managers were Vance Woodard and Greg Bafus. In their drive for the league championship, coach Ed Romeo's nine won all but one of their league games. The lone defeat came against the Lake Washington Kangaroos. The Totems won a total of fourteen games, losing only two against high schools. They suffered two setbacks in a double header with the U of W frosh team. Outstanding pitching came from Joines, Pace, Bever and Thomas. Parsons, Bever, Williams, Hiles, Leber and LaCount all hit well over .320 making the team batting average about .300. R.J. Williams, hitting over .500, supplied most of the RBI's and home runs. 9 '-Q-...., M-Q-......,,w-Q -e-...... -.....,,,, MINMWMMA 7. ,,.. A k . Arne Larsen moves fast to make the retum. Gary Air en slices one WI TWO His body tense, he moves slowly forward. With a swift movement he lifts the racket, pauses for a split second and serves the ball. The ball flies, is caught by the opponent and sent hurtling back. Lunging, he watches the ball with a quick and well trained eye, swings the racket and sends the ball with a loud crack to the other side. Sweat trickles down his face. The ball comes flying back again. He moves across the court with animal swiftnessg the ball meets the racket with a final violent blow and smashes over the net. The opponent fumbles, misses, loses. The game is over and the Sammamish Totem 'Tennis Team has won another game. This year, Sammamish's Tennis Coach, Ron Andresen, predicted a successful season and his team made good the prediction by capturing first place in the King Co conference, and undefeated. KingCo Champs '67 After a first game win over Lake Washington, victories followed such schools as Newport, Bothell, Issaquah, and a major win over a tough Bellevue team. The consistent resistance of John Bartholomew, Dave Smith, Gary Aitkin, and Tom Kuhns tseniorsl and Bob Mechauer, Arne Larsen, Bill Lane, and Dale Krueger ljuniorsl reaped a record nine out of nine victories. Bob Meckauer displays his backhand. ...LOSEO The '67 track season began with only thirty-seven horses turning out the first day. The team even- tually trimmed down to a mere thirty following conditioning programs. Head Coach Dick Jenkins and assistant Roy Felstad's training programs consisted not only of jogging, striding and sprin- ting around the oval, but also braving cold winds, rain, hail, snow and more rain. In the dual meets, the Sammamish track team displayed first place strength in five or six events. According to Coach Jenkins, We lacked the depth of second and third place finishers, which proved to be the difference in winning or losing the track meets. In echoing Jenkins, Bellevue American headlines often told of how Sammamish earned nine or ten first places, but lost the meet because they failed to get those all important second and third places necessary for victory. The lack of depth made the difference in this past season's big meets. We just don't have enough horses, affirmed Jenkins. One who earned first place finishes was co-captain Scott Purdy, who set a league record t6'4 J in the high jump. Mr. Jenkins feels, undoubtedly if he performs at his best he should go to state f May 26- 277 in the highjumpf' Three year letterman Purdy doubled as a hurdler. Junior and two year letter- man, Phil Kohut, a double winner in the Kingco finals, won the 100 and 220 yd. dashes and an- chored the winning 880 relay team. Another three year letterman and co-captain, Darwin Longley, still nursing an old football knee injury, was a consistent performer in the 440 yard dash. Steve Jones walked off with first place honors in the shotput at every dual meet of the season. Other consistent point getters and their events were: Jeff White, discus: Wayne Schiffman, pole vault: Mike Arend, broad jump and 880 relayg Ken Christensen, mile, Jeff Adams, 880 run: John Lundquist, springs, broad jump and 880 relay: Tom Cook, sprints, low hurdles and 880 relay: and the mile relay team. The mile relay team of Rich Gillette, Scott Brown, Ted Lehrbach and Steve Policar was later split up to get more dual meet points. The split was success- ful. Steve Policar, 440 and Ted Lehrbach, mile, took first places while Gillette, 880, and Brown, 440, took seconds adding depth to the Totem squad. Steve Policar passes the baton to Ted Lehrbach Phil Kohut is Hrs! out of the blocks , . . . and jqrsl across the j7n1'sh line.

Every- one gets a peek at the ficticious Joe Goble's parent permission slip. Mr. Lund shows off his red socks. A couple of warmup scales, then it's Another Op'nin', Another Show. When the choir is finally on the risers their audience claps, with little realization of the preparation and knowledge that has gone into this choir concert. Choir is just like a math or English class-you're taught, and then expected to put it into effect. And putting it into effect isn't always that easy. Choir members spend fourth period, and many of them first period also, memorizing mounds of sheet music and basic music theory. Long hours of rehearsal result in spot- lights, risers, and the choir hypnotized by each motion of Mr. Lund's deft fin- gers. And when it's all over- 4'It,s worth anything to have Mr. Lund proud of us! The choir has performed often this year, usually combining with the Stage Band, the girls' Choir, the men's Choir, and the three ensembles, the Chantones, the Stars in Stripes, and the Coachmen 8. Their concerts have included one at Hyak Junior High, Lake Hills Community Church, the aircraft carrier THE RANGER, the Naval Hospital in Bremerton, Pacific Lutheran University, a Fall, Christmas, and Spring Concert, a Kingco Contest, and an impromptu concert during the bomb scare on Valentine's Day. The ensembles and Men's Choir have done some other outside performances and most of the cast of SOUTH PACIFIC are members of the choir. Despite hard schedules and 'Slots of work the members of choir still have their zest for music, and hearty smiles for their audiences. Most choir members have a hard time describing themselves, but one girl spoke right up. Singing makes me a part of everyone else, I feel a great big grin spreading all over.

The C045-hmgn 8 Sing enghusiggfigglly, I don't care what club it is. It's members are all motivated by the same needs. Everybody needs to be somebody, ac- cording to Mr. Val Foubert, psychology teacher. Samma- mish clubs exist because stu- dents gain so much from belonging to them. Some club members gain self-satisfaction from helping others. Others gain a sense of significance by joining certain organizations. However. all club members gain one thing: a sense of belonging to a group of people. Besides the psychological benefitsclubmembersgetfrom belonging to their organiza- tions, the whole student body gains. Many clubs promote school spirit to give Samma- mish unity by supporting ath- letic events. The Hpep posters around school telling students about sports events are the products of Totem Tae. Shield members set up the gym so the student body can watch the Letterman play other schools. The Pep Staffs cheer- ing inspires us to stand behind the team. The Drill Team en- tertains the crowd at half- time and Signets take tickets at the door. Shield Cleans Up When you are driving to a Sammamish game a boy in a yellow rain slicker appears in the parking lot shining a flash- light in your direction. You roll down the window to see what he wants, as the cold rain blows into your face. The boy with the flashlight says Park here. You wonder, f'What makes a boy join Shield?,' That's a very good question. replied Mr. Dick Jenkins. faculty advisor. They probably have fewer rewards with their hours of standing in miserably cold rain and snow than other service organiza- 24 lubs: Everybod tions. Shield's 58 members joined because they have the one necessary requirement: A strong desire to offera service. The tasks of arranging the cafeteria for special produc- tions. setting up the gym for games and assemblies. and parking cars belong to Shield. At their infrequent meetings the officers preside: President Doug Allen, Vice-President Warren Daizey, and Treasurer Mike Barrett. Mainly they appoint squad leaders. set committees. and organize funds. according to Shield member. Don Phipps. Mr. Jenkins believes that this group, composed mostly of sophomores is 'fone of the best groups Sammamish has ever had. There is no club apathy whatsoever! The money made from their one sock hop is to replace equip- ment needed at school. When they announce a meeting Mr. Jenkins is sure they will 'fgo ahead and do what's got to be done. so he walks away. just Signets,Totem Tae Color Girls Spring as you are doing now to your safely parked car. You dash toward the gym door where a girl in a red blazer is waiting to inspect your A.S.B. card. A thought pops into your mind as you reach the gym door: Why don't more girls join Signets. They get to wear nice blazers and the girls seem pretty popular. If you've had these thoughts, DON'T TRY TO JOIN! These girls get weeded out. The Signet feels like one newly admitted Jun- ior: f'Learning is taking. taking. taking. taking! Finally you feel you've got to give something back. In order to determine which girls are prepared to give something back, and which girls don't like having to Totem Tae Signet Color Me Spring work party. X W . Q., 4 , ,, .M .

'hu f , W , : decide what to wear on Friday morning, stiff requirements are placed upon applicants: Q11 They attend an orientation held twice yearly. Here the hopeful applicants discover the who, what, when and how much work. After the how much, some applicants drop. Q21 The girls fill out an appli- cation and write a paragraph, What Is The Job Of A Signet At School and In the Commu- nity. If some can't answer correctly important questions more must drop out. Q33 The teachers check one about each candidate for a Signet blazer: Don't know: Would re commend: Would not re- commendg Would highly re- commend. The girls who were marked Would not recom- mendu are cancelled from the list. t4l Finally every contender is interviewed by a board made up of Signet officers, Faculty Advisor Miss Roberta' Brown, and three Signet members. A question, like 'fWhat is school spirit is directed to each hopeful entrant. Looking at each girl's poise, personality, and content of response, the screening board decides which girls get tapped with the golden wand that turns an ordinary girl into a Signet. Miss Brown sighs, It's really a chore I could do without. However, f'The membership has to be limited. We have to make sure all the girls are working. They really have to serve. At their standard meetings the second Wednesday of every month the 65 members make plans for upcoming projects or elect officers. Ann McDermott took over Cendy Popplewell's office as President. At the same meeting Secretary Judy Hubbard turned her office over to Cathy Lemon. Treas- urer Pat Cambell and Vice- President Gail Baker still hold their offices. These offi- cers organize committees to work on club projects: Signet Tolo, service at Adult Educa- tion, manning tickets crews, ushering at concerts, taking measurements for senior caps and gowns, taking tickets at games, raising a contribution for the Martha Washington In- stitution, cooperating with Totem Tae to present the annual dessertffashior show tthis year entitled Color Me Spring held April 9thl, and planning the Signet-Shield din- nej. During the summer they drag themselves off the beach to plan an orientation to high school life for incoming Sopho- mores. Also during the sum- mer, Bellevue Square shop- pers see Signets conducting arts and crafts classes for children. As you hurry through the gym door you lose sight of the red Signet blazer. You're in your place in the bleachers when a red and black pep poster catches your eye. Wonder who makes all those posters? It is the job of the 90 members of Totem Tae to make posters, publish the Pep Book, attend all games, sponsor a sock hop and work, along with Signets, on the dessertffashion show. 'fThe only a qualification a girl needs to join Totem Tae is that she must sincerely want to do something for the school, according to one faculty advisor, Mrs. Cheryl Sanders. When a girl wishes to belong to Totem Tae she is assigned a Big Sister for one month. At the end of this time the pledge is accepted or rejected depending on her HBig Sister's recommenda- tion. The officers are Presi- dent Diana Stack, Secretary Betty Mohagan, Treasurer Chris More. Because of these girls Mrs. Sanders can say They run themselves well. Very self-sufficient and so enthusiastic, so independent. Neither she nor Mrs. Gretchen Senyohl devote much time to club management. The aims are to: Promote school spirit, publish sport events, and organize pep assemblies. There is another organization which helps Totem Tae in pro- moting school spirit. At half time Sammamish's Pep Staff prances onto the court. I think the kids think it looks like fun, says Cheerleader Marnie Layne. Quickly, Song Queen Mary Rybus adds, And it is! However. the members of the pep staff do a lot more than moving to the rhythm of the pep band. They give three hours after school each week to perfect and create routines. Pep Staff Sports Spirit These three hours don't in- clude that time spent perform- ing at games and assemblies. Sammamish's cheerleaders also give big hunks of their summer to practice and get used to working with the next year's staff. The privilege of being in this group is not only paid for in time, but in money too! The girl's two outfits cost more than they probably care to think about. What do the Pep Staff members get in return? Sometimes they get listless, silent pep Assemblies. I really get upset, Mary con- fesses. One of their most im- portant jobs comes at the end of the year: They coach and help screen the incoming pep staff. The old pep staff makes it hard for the prestige joiners. I think we really weed 'em out, according to Marnie. Despite these occasional let downs, Marnie speaks for the whole group when she says I've really, really felt privileged being on Pep Staff this year! Why? To be on the pep staff you really have to be enthusi- astic about the school. I think that's really a compliment! As the pep staff retreats, the drill team makes a smart en- trance. You survey the oppo- side side of the gym which is full of students from that other school and wonder, f'Do they have a drill team entertaining them at half-time! Bellevue has a drill team and our cap- tains Nan Metzger and Monica Sully helped Newport form their first one this year, answers Mrs. Carol Stephens, drill team instructor. The girls in this year's team were chosen from those who tried out because they have rhythm, poise and a neat appearance. When these 26 girls get together their most outstanding characteristic is summed up by Mrs. Stephens: When a group of people are Drill Team F ills Halftime chosen for anything like this you have lots of school spirit. They give their time because they are very, very loyal to the school and they like the fun of performing in a group. Seventh period after this organization has all their maneuvers running smoothly, they participate in a regular physical education class to keep in shape. The team is loping back onto the court. The next thing you know you'r'e yelling, Go! Go! Beat 'eml Beat 'eml in unison with the rest of the Sammamish kids in the bleach- ers. The boys who have earned letters in sports join a club known as Lettermen. The goal of this organization, according to the club faculty advisor, Mr. Arnold Bierman is f'The betterment of the school as a whole. Their meetings are held once a month and are directed by President Phil Parsons. They concentrate on patroling the halls and lunch- room. This ,year they've had many money making projects going: The crabfeed, pencil sales, sock hops and sweater sales. The boys aren't greedy. They hope to buy a Universal Weight Training Set. Boys who have lettered in swim- ming, golf, football, cross- country, basketball, wrestling. tennis, track and baseball join the Lettermen's club. Sammamish's other major or- ganizations concentrate on personal achievement. The Girl's Recreation Council members shout to each girl, Come on! Get Physically fit! The Totem Investment Lettermen Have Crab Legs fund's aim is giving each mem- ber a knowledge of private investment. Honor Society members achieve a 3.35 grade point average in high school. Junior Statesman will under- stand more about government and parliamentary procedure. Although clubs serve the same function to the individual member, the individual clubs try to do different things. Girls attending Sammamish who enjoy sports join the Girls Recreation Council, accord- ing to Miss Dorothy Outz, The girls who turn out bene- fit a great deal. This organ- ization gives the girls no longer Drill Team Members practice for hawimes. Above and below: Shield members set up the gym for an assembly.

President Pat Campbell, Vice-President Sue Rabin, Secretary Judy Fredericson, and Treasurer Peggy Llewel- lyn plus twenty other girls comprise the council. GRC members take charge of the concession stands during foot- ball and basketball games. The GRC also decides which sports will be offered to the GRC Sponsors Sports girls during the year. This year volleyball, gymnastics, badminton, bowling and ten- nis were offered. As many as 60 to 80 girls will turn out on nights when the GRC is offering a popular sport, says Faculty Advisor Miss Outz. By offering such a wide variety of sports the council members feel they can live up to their motto: A sport for every girl and a girls for every sport. In Honor Society students must have 3.35 g.p.a. in senior high. Officers John Bartholo- mew, Gary Aitken, Gail Frank, and Pam Brunk take charge at the meetings, held the first Wednesday of every month. Honor Society Gives Scholarship Here the members discuss their projects: the tutoring service, new member instal- lation services, candy sales, and their car wash. Because of the society's large member- ship, it has two faculty advi- sors: Mrs. Elizabeth Terry and Mr. Ronald Andresen who make sure members have the correct grade point and send letters to students eligible to join. Another club interested in the individual is Junior Statesmen. The person who joins this or- ganization will learn about parliamentary procedure, leg- silation, and the workings of the United Nations in unusual and interesting ways. The Jun- ior Statesmen use the parlia- Below Members discuss prospects for stocks at TIF meeting. Right: Girls enjoy GRC afterschool volleyball. mentary procedure at all their meetings. They also attend mock legislatures, and a mock U.N. We try to apply what we've learned and make it active, states Mrs. Esther Arrasmith, Junior Statesmen's Jr. S. Studies State faculty advisor. Aside from Mrs. Arrasmith and Mrs. Molly Radke, the club's main- stays are its officers: Presi- dent Bobby Birch, Vice- President Pam Brunk, His- torian Bonnie Shantry, and Treasurer Carter Bently. Junior Statesmen's one prob- lem centers around Carter's department: the treasury. They have only one money making project and that is their cookie sales. Mrs. Arra- smith feels, We should be allowed to have activities to raise funds. As it stands now, whenever the club's twenty members need to spend monev it comes out of their own pockets. I don't think a mem- ber of Junior Statesmen should be eliminated from an activity because they don't have the money, says Mrs. Arrasmith. Money and learning are also the major concerns of the Totem Investment Fund. TIF gives seniors taking contem- porary problems and econo- mics, and faculty members the opportunity to make some TIF Plays Stock Market cash. However, the purpose of this organization is 'to teach students about private invest- ment. TIF is a mock corpora- tion: stocks are sold, stock holder's meetings are held, a board of directors is elected, the board elects corporation officers, corporation funds are invested after careful in- vestigation, a corporation tax is paid to the A.S.B., and stock holders receive dividends. No Honor Society unnecessary risks are taken with the invested money. Play- ing conservatively seems to be one of the traits of their faculty advisor, Mr. Howard Schmidt. If asked about this year's divi- dends the most binding state- ment he'll make is, It looks like we are going to have a good year . . . Chairman of the board, Bill Todd is making sure that TIF lives up to its fine reputation because, HTIF has never failed to pay a dividend. On the surface it appears that these organizations are unlike one another because the things their members do are differ- ent. However, all these clubs, societies, and organizations perform a necessary function, according to Mrs. Jeff Mohn's seventh period sociology class: They provide the per- sons involved with security, recognition and identity. It is necessary for a person to have these things in order to think of himself as some- body, since Everybody needs to be somebodyi' All Wash d Q ,. l W!

Cries of this and less printable lines were voiced at the beginning of the 1966-67 school year, the second year of quarterlies. Working under a handicap of student controversy and a lack of enough money to actually pay for the production of the book, the staff thought of ways to raise the additional money. The main problem was to pacify the hard-cover maniac. This was done with a design and the word THUNDERBIRD on a red and black binder. The binder has four wires, one of which is put through the middle of each quarterly to make the books fit it. When the first book came out with the binder, the card-cover complaints were minimized. This years quarterlies were filled with new additions. Among them were the articles on Modern Dance, the exchange student and the home economics infantry Problem: lack of funds The other problem. lack of funds, was caused by the binder and hasn't been solved yet. The four magazines themselves cost over S5 .00 and the binders cost is 51.25. Each student only paid 55.00 so the staff has to make up the difference. A dance was held, dozens of doughnuts and gallons of ice cream were sold. but the staff still didn't make enough to pay for the new improved version of the quarterlies. The students on the THUNDERBIRD staff, under the leader- ship of Editor Bruce Laing. Managing Editor Mary Peterson. and their Advisor Mrs. Margaret Bates. did all this to give the stu- dents of Sammamish an informatiave and thought-provoking book. . wr' ' 'R+ ,uh ,, . si Below: Cindy Lewis, Kirk Wilson, Steve Reynolds, .lim Raabe, Bert Cindy Liggett and Jane Swirsky look through a magazine for possible lay- Miller.

Below: Totem Talk staff members prepare for a deadline. The TOTEM TALK, like the THUNDERBIRD, also has its share of student opinions. As one student said of the bi-monthly newspaper, 'Alt gets better every year. This year is no exception. Under the direction of advisor Mrs. Bonnie McDade, there has been a change of format. An example of this was the article on cheating in the school. Another change was in the layout of the paper including the title box. Ads Written to God From Dear God classified ads to completely serious editorials, the staff covers all aspects of current student life. One editorial on the student's role in an inactive school raised quite a controversy. One of the main points of the article was the faculty-student relationship. Bob Lutgen had this to say about it: UI think the editorial awakened Sammamish to what was, and what was not going on in the school. I also think that the editorial had something to do with the Student Advisory Council being formed. All members of the staff work on writing stories, editing, and obtain- ing advertising contracts. According to Donna Murphy, the ads are one of the most important parts of the newspaper because they serve a dual purpose. They help the businesses who purchase them and they also help to defray the expenses of printing. In this way they can print up any extra pages they might want for a special edition. The staff is headed by Bob Lutgen. Other people in top positions are Managing Editor, Donna Murphy: News Editor, Maryann Nowak: Business Manager, Bev Cameron: and Advertising Manager, Judy Paasch. The one publication of Sammamish the students never complain about is the literary magazine. The staff accepts all contributions from students and uses a good percentage of them in the magazine. The literary magazines main purpose is to let the students of Sam- mamish express themselves creatively. Of the arty things in the book, the collographs were contributed by the Art 1 classes. This was the first year that art has played a large part in the book. Amongst other pieces there was an abstract picture of a Brain Drain by Jeff Adams. In the poetry section of the publication, Tom Muench contributed poems labeled Munch a Bunch of Muench. This year's editor is Mary Barger. Other members of the staff include Tammy Dworkin, Kathy Childers, David Barger, Sharon Oviatt, Ralph Heiner, Bob Buchmier, Connie Borgford, Janine Shinkosky, Andy Yeaman, Janet Thompson and Carol Johnson. 4 v ,, Q 2 ff! if HQ 'Ay' 1 1 am Z 34 Victim prepare for 1 ' i :,,, , mvfw' 11+ ' ' . . fini conms the soul-cleansing . . .' at a local beauty Salon.

Publicity and Entertainment Chairman Steve Policar sauntered in with the last of the unstolen Casino Royale posters, waved a dollar bill over his head and yelled, Who has a car and can go get some Swingline 27 staples? Kids ran around eating brownies while Committee Chair- men gnawed on their fingernails, but by late afternoon the gym was drenched in red and gold. At half past seven, hungry Prom-goers gathered around tables throughout Seattle, gorging themselves with food. After feasting, the slightly stuffed couples piled into their cars and left for an evening of dancing. Colored lights glared as dates entered the swanky casino, formerly the gym.

Steve Triumphs Again Lovable Steve Donovan turned on the charm once again and hypnotized his public into giving him the title of Handsome Harry 1967. The Ways and Means Committees annual Handsome Harry Hop turned into another Donovan triumph. After being elected sophomore class vice-presi- dent, A.S.B. vice-president, and A.S.B. President, the Handsome Harry crown makes Donovan a four time winner. On his way to becoming the handsomest boy in school Nl, Steve collected over 545.00 for the A.S.B. treasury. Co-chairmen Roby Harrington and Steve Poli- car announced that the Handsome Harry candidates collected a grand total of 514000. Others vying for the title included Marty Kaplan and Dan Leber, seniors: Bradd Bever, junior, and Dan Foley and Greg Knapp, sophomores. Ten year old Lawrence Chandler, younger brother of Vernell Chandler, teacher and chaperone, provided a touch of James Brown dancing. His gyrations, accom- panied by the sounds of the Revolution Kind, almost overshadowed Donovan's impressive fourth victory! Juniors Present Program Reliving the excitement of New Orleans' Basin Street Blues, spirituals and negro folk songs, students of the 5th and 6th period English classes of Mrs. Bates and Mrs. Lupton presented a program on Negro expression in music and literature. Along with the music came excerpts from such writers as Langston Hughes, Gwendolyn Brooks and James Baldwin. On April 27, the program was presented and included Kathy Allen, Sue Braun, Ed Erickson, Don Gibson, and Milana Groby. Others were Dave Hallek, Claire Ramsey. Tom Randall, Karen Tarr, Lynn Watts and Ann Wilson. On May 2, Sandy LeRoy joined them in a presentation for the morning team classes. The program expressed the idea the the Negro has been a generous giver to America in its formation. America would not be the same America if it did not possess the indelible imprint and silent power the Negro has exerted upon it. Lovable Steve Triumphs After weathering a cherry bomb sabotage, a bomb threat, smoking in the cans, a sock hop ban, a messy cafeteria and an ultimatum, the student body officers left office to make way for the new officers elect. This year's A.S.B. election of next year's officers was held during the first week of April. The nominating and acceptance assemblies started off election week. Then came speeches, more speeches, stickers, posters and finally the election. The voting machines were missing this year, so the votes were cast on a ballot form. The voters elected former A.S.B. Vice-President Steve Dono- van President. Ron Cohen was the unanimous choice for Vice-President. He ran unopposed. Barb Kimbrough will serve as student body council Secretary. The Man , Ralph Anderson was the people's choice for A. S. B. Treasurer.

Teachers live it. In the following interview, Mr. Wayne Connoway of the English Department who has been teaching for ten years, and Mrs. Molly Radke of the Social Studies Department who has been teaching for one year, give candid opinions about Sammamish in specific and education in general. Interviewer: Comment on the quotation The students of Sammamish are passive freeloaders. Mr. Connoway: I think that is not an apt description of the students of Sammamish. I think it is a description of some stu- dents of every school that I have ever taught in, but I find enough active, inquisitive minds in my class that challenge me every single week. Mrs. Radke: I see some students in my class for whom that description would be accurate, but I'm not sure there are any- more here than at any other school. There are very brilliant students that I enjoy working with and they are not passive freeloaders. Interviewer: Would you comment on the student who takes three hours of shop, P.E. and mechanics courses, and does well in these, but constantly fails in academic courses he is required to take? Mr. Connoway: To often we think that success stems from the ability to read and write and that is really kind of tragic. But we've made it. The teachers have made it and the parents have made it and the American University system has made it, and it just so happens that Sammamish High School gears its success on how well the student reads and writes. I think my ability to read is pretty good, but I need a mechanic to fix my car. That statement makes us try to make all people alike, fit them into the same category of courses. Mrs. Radke: I suppose I fit into the American system in the sense that I feel that it is very important to learn to read and write well. I wish that the school provided more opportunities to help these people succeed in academic courses, rather than Than ,I t Teachw simply congratulating them when they succeed in other kinds of courses. I almost wish that while the student was in high school, he concentrated more on academic courses because he is not really needed on the labor market when he graduates. It is after he graduates that he should go on to vocational training. Mr. Connoway: The thing wrong with that idea is that if we had a minimum age level for leaving high school at the age of 18, then it would be OKto say that the students should take as many academic courses as possible. It would be great if nobody would drop out of school. The first thing to do in order to meet what you say, is to up the age limit for leaving high school to 18. Then we would have a captive audience to give academic courses to. But when kids are going to leave school at 18 still not suitable for the labor market, then I think the American high school is doing what it should by giving them some oppor- tunities to work in other courses. lnterviewer: Should there be required courses? 1' , Wa-st K - W '9vfeaw,.q . ea ale X if ts Q ,sim M Q I . ...cs . ' i'a:a5.:a :-1- H . . .. N Mrs. Radke: Yes. Ideally, it would be better if, for example, we required a student to take so much English, and what kind of English could be left to the student. I think a student should be required to take a certain amount of science and math simply because if he doesn't understand the society he lives in, he is going to be less able to direct it himself. I would much rather see people directing society than society directing people. lnterviewer: Comment on the student who disrupts classes, constantly disobeys rules, and fails many of his classes. Mr. Connoway: The student that you described takes up a great deal of somebody's time. This is one of the reasons that sometimes the public doesn't understand when concerned teachers say I'd do a much better job if I had fewer kids to work with. If I had a bit more time to spend. There are still parents who say our job is solely to teach. But that isn't the job that comes to Sammamish at 8 o'clock in the morning. It seems to me that our job is more than just teach.

Mrs. Radke: I have a little girl who has a great deal of difficulty with reading and con- sequently, with most of history. Yet she tries and she comes to me for extra help and I would love so much to have a period a day because here is a student who is willing to make the effort. She'll go out of her way to come for help, yet I just plain don't have the time to give her all the help I should. It's criminal. f'We'll have it as soon as the public is willingf, Interviewer: Is the problem a lack of teachers? Mrs. Radke: I think it is a problem as far as our basic philosophy is concerned. I am sure that the basic personnel is there. But the reason there aren't more positions available is that the school districts are dependent on the public for money. As soon as the public decides that it is willing to pay for this type of education, we'll have a better chance of having it. Interviewer: Comment on the student who works for grades, because of the so-called pressures put on him. Are these pressures real? Mr. Connaway: The pressures are real. We put them on the kids by giving report cards. And if a kid has a bent towards a good university, they're putting on limitations too: a minimum 2.5 to go here, a minimum 600 on the college board verbal to go there, a rank in the upper upper upper of your class to go someplace else. Should we remove these pressures? Yes. How? Get rid of all the people who establish the limitations. I can't say that the University of Washington ought to abolish any kind of standards. But on the other hand I think that a guidance counselor here at Sammamish could get any graduat- ing senior into some college across the land. Sometimes, I kind of shudder at that, but it's true. I've been a guidance counselor long enough to know that anybody can go as long as they have the money first and the brains second. Maybe it's 4th or 5th on the brains. Interviewer: Is there an emphasis on a certain area of study at Sammamish? Mr. Connaway: To my knowledge, there isn't. I've heard these little gripes here and there about the fact that it exists, but I don't have the time to get involved in depart- ment griping. Adults are much more difficult to argue with than kids, and I just argue with kids. MI can do anything I want. Interviewer: Do you get much cooperation from the administration at Sammamish? Mr. Connaway: That's one of the reasons I'm still at Sammamish, because I can do anything I want and a few times I've done a couple of things that have gotten us in trouble. With that production last year and the John Birch Society, and the film the Parable, this year, we got into a bit of dutch. It's really interesting to see how far behind us Mr. Torgerson and Mr. Knoell and Dr. Brubacher really are. Greg Knapp dives with perfection. ,. 9 ry.

Rainier, Highline, Lakeside, and Cas- cade Ctwicel. In the King-Pierce Relays, on December 9, Sammamish finished 4th. On February 17, at the King-Pierce Championships, Sammamish finished in a tie with Highline for Sth place. Coach Jack Shibley said, The Sammam- ish Totem Swim Team, although very young, has had a successful season. Our prospects for next year look very pro- mising. We fully expect to increase our strength and depth in all areas. The ac- quiring of the Samena Club pool for this year has helped make our team much stronger and we're looking forward to greater use of it again next year. The team has a fine spirit of unanimity this year and each member is doing an ex- cellent job. Due to this team spirit and hard work, Sammamish managed to qual- ify 6 swimmers in the State Meet. Greg Knapp, Mike Schock, Trent Smith, Jerry Snyder, Steve Tometz, and Jeff White were Sammamish's representatives at the State Meet on February 24-25. ,. 5, I 41 X . 5' 1' ' 1 M W ,A 5 M jx Ma nv L ' .h , if 3 f f'H..f3.DT , fm, M , I Wm' W 'W R ,, m,,g 4, K my , fu- ,W A diy , 'mv ' Inq! wJamA,2f W mf , 1 ,f 'W , f y gJ'z W' of W' H Q' if A 1 A , ' as Y' 'W V, -A fu , V W ld if ff ' , I M I ,fhflfiwo .limi ' W-2' ,gf MW H I W ff ' - ak gg ,w f K iw 5 ' ' fi!

I blinked and missed it all. Homecoming '66. Zilch. If it's going to be such an inconvenience, don't bother. No alumni game. No dance. No invitations. There was a court. The spotlight on the girls coming out was really, I mean REALLY great! And a reception. I didn't know the guest book would hold so many names. The grads' reaction? It was rotten! Students were reluctant to blame general chair- men, Anne Richardson and Gary Johnson for the obvious failure. Most students realize they have no power to carry out plans disapproved of by the administration. A basketball alumni game was disregarded because of the many activities scheduled for students during the week before Christmas. But I thought Homecoming Was For The Gradsl' A dance was not approved be- cause the administration had no authority over the drunken graduates. I bet the alums could find a lot neater places to be smashed at. I mean. a high school dance? Other chairmen were: Jan Friberg, Reception: Sue Duncan, Court: Tammy Dworkin and Judy Hubbard, Publicityg Kathy Stalter and Sharon Watts, Decorations. The '66 Homecoming Court included Queen Mary Rybus, First Princess Sue Jensen, Second Princess Gail Baker, Third Princ- ess Sue Damonte and Fourth Princess Jan Hop- kins. At least we had one success-we beat Mercer Island 66-62. A suggestion for next year. They should combine Pep Week and Homecoming.

Swallowed in a world filled with seemingly never-ending hallways, long legs, noise, confusion, and narrow escapes from big feet, a group of tiny people invaded Sammamish. Soon, though, they were ushered into a room, the door was closed and they found themselves in a world of their own. Filled with toys, rocking horses. blocks. paints, pic- ture books, and make-believe grocery store and home- maker's kitchen, the room was designed and scaled to a size right for a child. This rather unusual atmosphere in a high school was all part of a new program organized by Mrs. Sanders, a Home Economics teacher at Sammamish. The program provided a playschool for children between the ages of three and five. The girls in Mrs. Sanders' classes were studying a unit in child development, and the purpose of the play- school was to emphasize the characteristics of different age groups. The school also gave the girls some experience in handling small children. Mrs. Sanders commented that students were given the opportunity to work with child- ren and to study them in a more structured manner unlike a regular babysitting situation. .M ... The first two weeks of the Child Development unit, the students in Mrs. Sanders' classes gathered and built up the information they would need to know before partici- pating in a playschool. During that time, the girls found parents willing to enroll their children in the playschool. The girls also contributed or made all the equipment need- ed for the school except for the blocks which were do- nated by the woodshop. Big feet-tiny people There were two groups of children each dayg one in the morning and one during the afternoon. The girls would come into class and split into two groups, one observers and the other, floaters. The floaters supervised and aided the children with their activities. Divided into separate activity areas, the school gave the child a chance to experiment with paint, puzzles. blocks, games and crafts. A housekeeping area and grocery store were available for the Uhomemakers' and also a library where the children could listen to records or choose stories to be read. 4 I, A the INFANTry invasion e Q .

Each day the children were taken for a short walk where they would find such interesting things as caterpillars or other crawly creatures. These, they would gleefully bring back to class for the teacher or to take home for their mothers. The children learned to obey sim- ple safety rules and learned how to conduct themselves during 'Ljuice time. Proving to be excellent stu- dents, the children enjoyed their day at school, got along well with each other, and were never self-conscious while they were being observed. Mrs. Sanders' students en- joyed the playschool pro- gram. For some it was an opportunity to nonchalantly sink their hands into globs of playdough and still say they were really only helping one of the children with his pro- ject. Others caught up on all the little Golden Books they missed reading when they were younger. Most of them felt that the playschool was a far more effective method of learning to understand the children than simply reading or discussing him as was done in the past. Learning to cope with such problems as stimu- lating a child's interest for an activity, aiding a child who needs help on a project, and preventing arguments or mis- haps were all situations the girls faced. Handling a room- ful of children who suddenly become ferocious, snapping alligators that crawl under tables and through chairs, was an unusual situation that gave one class the oppor- tunity to see the great extent of a child's imagination in action. Comments on the children were varied. One girl said that she was the youngest in her family and had never re- alized what her parents had' to put up with so much. An- other commented: The kids are wild: one never knows what to expect! A girl stated that they are usu- ally a lot of fun. 'I'hey'll do things that are cute like ask you to go steady. Mrs. Sanders considered the playschool a big success and plans on having another one next year. She said she hoped the girls tried to apply the guidance techniques they learned and evaluate their effectiveness. She also com- mented that it was not only interesting to learn to under- stand children, but how stu- dents got along with them. .gi IT,S A BIRD... IT'S A PLANE 'Q o 3.

It's super skier. Sam- mamish's super skier is Dan Zunterstein who has been skiing since he was old enough to stand on two feet. Dan is now the school's top ski racer. The long racing season begins early in Decem- ber with cross country runs, while teams await the first snows of the season. The snow natural- ly draws thern to the mountains where the ac- tive training with weekend ski trips plus night skiing begins. Members of the Washington Athletic Club teams include Ken Christensen, Sue Donelson, Vicki Pavloff, and Jim Piper. Chuck Hammer races for Ski Professional, Inc., and Pat Petesch for Bellevue Ski Team. Tom Classen and Bob Reeves race unattached to any team. Most of the local races are held at Crystal Mountain, Stevens Pass, or Sno- qualmie Summit. The racing events include downhill, slalom, and giant slalom. All the pre-season prepara- tion. extensive physical training and endless waiting culminates on race day. The mental pressure on the racer is tremendous, but not on Dan Zunterstein. Dan began ski racing in the fourth grade as a Pacific Northwest Ski Association novice or beginner. He moved to the next racing class. intermediate, at age eleven, and by seventh grade Zunterstein was an expert. His train- ing consisted of a few jump rope sessions, an occasional jog through the Arboretum with his ski racing team: the Crystal Mountain Athletic Cliib QCMACJ and night skiing. Dur- ing the summer, he runs stations on the snow fields of Mt. Rainier. For Zunterstein the skiing season never ends: he can be found skiing throughout the year's four seasons. The only time Dan took time out from his skiing was to allow injuries to heal. After eight years of racing, Dan is at present shooting for a berth on the Junior National Ski Championships, representing PNSA. His ultimate goal is winning a skiing scholarship at an established university. Racing in all three types of events, downhill slalom and giant slalom, Dan has been suc- cessful in his years of racing. His success may be measured by his two shelves full of trophies. This year, Dan's CMAC team has toured the PNSA circuit with races at Bachelor Butte in Bend, Oregon, Breendage Mountain. McCall Idaho, the Silver Skiis, a race in which fifteen selectjuniors were hand-picked to race against many of U.S. and Canada's top ski racers, and also at Mt. Spokane, Spokane, Washington. Dan Zunterstein, a fifteen year veteran of the ski slopes-some say he was born on skiis-can now be called, Sammamish's super skiier. 18 F ULLOW THE SNOW Upper right: Sammamish squad at S.P.S. prepare for their events.

Upon entering 308 for the first time you are convinced that because of Mr. Val Fou- bert's likeness to a 40 year old Charlie Brown. this class will be sweatless. But a few days later, your conception of a sweatless class has melted. The first blast of hot air ar- rives the day you hear the topic you will be debating all year. RESOLVE: That the foreign aid program of the United States should be limited to non-military assistance. What's resolve'? What's military aid. let alone, non- military assistancel? The next item dissolves your candy- coated conception to a pool, vaguely resembling tears. Mr. Foubert announces that you must Hprepare a seven minute speech to persuade which will be somewhat akin to an extemperaneous talk. Good grief. WHAT'S a per- suasive talk? What's extemperaneous stuff, anyway? Moreover, what are you doing in this class: you sit in your desk, hoping that your holding the desk tightly will keep you from bolting for the door. A little later you realize that all your blood has drained to your feet which would make running impossible. but by now, it's too late. The 1 ,vr -3 4 JI, li wx, X An thin class is leaving and you haven't a soul to help you pry your fear-frozen fingers from their death grip on the desk. Mr. Foubert glances at you recognizing the symptoms: after teaching debate for so long he has met quite a few like you. As he approaches. he faces the new you. the pale faced, wild eyed. rigid backed you, with white knuckles beginning to dent the desk. He knows he'd best do some- thing quickly. You sob. How can I persuade all these kids about anything?! I've never read Time, Newsweek, or the Christian Science Monitor. As he sits down, you are once again struck with his uncanny resemblance to Charlie Brown, lacking only the proper nose. Mr. Foubert says, The purpose of this class is to teach you these thingsg you're not expected to know them now. Then you realize that everyone will be searching out the deep black mysteries of Time, Newsweek, and the Christian Science Monitor, as well as learning about debating, dramatic interpretations, extemporaneous speaking, oratory and impromptu. Apparently. this year's debaters have learned quite a bit. Q ut Sweatlessw judging from their record. The advanced debaters have eight wins with only one loss from King Co League de- baters. The Junior division has fourteen wins with two losses. The combined efforts of both divisions secured for Sammamish the top award at their first major tourna- ment. the sweepstakes. By January 20th and 21st bringing with it Sammamish's second opportunity to demonstrate their talents behind the podium, they had earned a formid- able reputation. When Chris Fitzgerald and Caren Conine told their opponents from whose hallowed halls they hailed they sent them ducking behind their cards and muttering 'sOh, no. At this tournament. which was held at Seattle Pacific College. the Sammamish debate squad placed eight speakers among the semifinalists. Of these, three went on to represent their squad in the tournaments final rounds. At SPC Sammamish placed fifth out of the fifty-six schools which entered. However. earning the squad's good reputation was not all as fun as looking through thousands of magazines for debate, extemp, impromptu, or oratory: or libraries of books of poems and plays for dramatic interpretations. Some of it was hard. It was hard to believe that at one of the league debates housewives were used to judge, house- wives who didn't know the difference between a well supported piece of evidence and falacial reasoning. Some- thing not quite as frustrating as housewife judges but a good deal more nerve-shattering were 308's temporary tenants. This year the squad shared the room with fifteen squiggly black spiders who crept out through cracks in the wall to run relay races in the front of the room. An- other strain was the band. They practice seventh period and have miraculously found a way to bounce their good vibrations off one of the portables. into the open windows of 308. Most debaters agree that the band has a good sound this year, however, just try to refute the second to last illogical piece of evidence supporting the first af- firmative contention tothe tune of f'Hey! Look Me Over! Mr. Foubert once said this about all beginning debate teams: They're sure they'll die but I know they won't. Strangely enough he's right. They live to see many tourna- ments even though they have nightmares about dropping their debate boxes which are stuffed with sweat stained 3 x 5 note cards. gg vf3f',?!5,Q Madam.

The team, with the help of nine returning lettermen, finished with an overall re- cord of 6-4, and in league play 4-4, in front of Newport and Bellevue. Coach Ralph Sherwood said, The season has had its bright spots, among them, the defeats of Bellevue and Newport. We have a fine group of wrestlers out this year. Sammamish finished 5th out of nine teams in the sub-district tournament in February 10-ll, again ahead of Bellevue and Newport. At the end of the first day, Sammamish was in first place with all 12 wrest- lers still in. At the end of the second day Sammamish had three representatives going to the tournament at Puyallup.

One of the group had bought a cherry bomb from a friend, and had made plans with the others to flush it down a toilet. They had predicted a sewer backup, and school would have to close. Unfortunately, the only thing that closed was the bathroom, Mr. Torgerson felt the debris that was left 'flooked too much like something out of World War Ilf' The boys have since dropped school. Such activities as skipp- ing school, stealing shot-puts, playing squirt- gun with fire extinguishers, smoking on school grounds, flooding the bathrooms with water, and other assorted juvenile antics blacken their records. These children's reaction to Sammamish: It's the biggest hole in the Seattle area. Of the administration, one said: Personally, I think our administration is pretty wiped out. They don't understand people. Two weeks later, Mr. Knoell sent a curious stu- dent body into the gym. Our valentine was the announcement of a bomb scare. We don't even get to go home! wailed a few. The guilty party obviously suffered disappointment with this,soto ease the pain Mr. Lund gathered together his choir and the drill team in an effort to entertain for the hour. Commenting on the average apathetic Sammam- ishite, one student leader said, 'iWhen they see somebody doing something really bad, they don't do anything about it. They don't care about Sam- mamishf' As long as we're amused by the blowing up of latrines, it'll continue, another said. Mrs. Mohn, Sammamish's Psychology-Sociology teacher, explained that a whole reef of causes exists. She outlined the following main ones: IJ People donlt know what's expected behavior 21 People can't accept what's expected behavior 33 People can't or won't produce what's expect- ed behavior. 'fWhereas the destrubtive individual may alleviate his day's problems by kicking the family cat, the constructive individual will realize, understand, and accept what's expected of him. Then he will work to produce what's expected. Sammamish's problem isn't unique. The U.S. Crime Commission estimates that the National Crime Rate may triple all estimates this year. America must translate its well-founded alarm about crime into social action that will prevent crime, the panel urged.

Somehow, among the pinatas, polkas and gen- eral partying, this honorable pur- pose has been seemingly replaced by another just as honorable pur- pose: to have a ball. Each of Sam- mamish's five language groups, German, Spanish, French, Latin, and Russian, take particular care in planning elaborate activities for the pleasure of its members. olka mixed with Frug The German Club, advised by Miss Andrea Agather and led by President Sue Ennis, pleased its members and outdid the other language clubs by having two Christmas parties this year. The first one, held after school, in- volved some feeble singing, a mis- performed, terribly funny version of the Night Before Christmas, and finished with the traditional German Polka mixed with some frugging. The second party was an evening affair providing refresh- ments and live music. Break the Pinata! The Spanish Club, advised by Mr. Henry Tunes and led by President Sue Rabin, held a single, well plan- ned Christmas party. It was a com- bination of exotic foods, including a candy-cake in the form of a snake, pinata breaking, word games, and an ethnic Spanish Christmas play. With hints of sophistication the French Club, advised by Mr. Tim Lamont and led by President Laurie Farber, kept its audience in their seats with an accident-prone pro- duction of How the Grinch Stole Christmas. at their Christmas party. They were further provided with well-rehersed singing and a visit from Santa Claus. Although the Latin Club, advised by Adrienna McCormack and led by President Don McQuarrie, was deprived of a Christmas party, they did partake in the Junior Classical League's statewide bash in Bremer- ton on November 1. The activi- ties included a College Bowl ques- tioning on Roman history, and costumed skits, which placed the Sammamish troupe in Roman attire on the ferry trip home. This month, the Latin Club worked on the May issue of the Junior Clas- sical League's magazine, 'SVox Latina. Viewing Folk Dancers The Russian Club, advised by Miss Rosanne Gostovich and led by Presi dent Mark Peeples, also missed a Christmas party, but had an oppor- tunity to go to the Opera House in November to see the Urakranian Folk Dancers. Aside from separate activities, the vario s clubs combined their forces befor., Christmas for the traditional carol competition, where each club tried to outdo the others in volume, if not in quality. Also, on March 29, the clubs plan to take part in the International Language Banquet, a dinner held in Seattle. It's not always stimulating, edu- cational, or instructive. But who cares? It's fun. 31 - .asp wx l l l oH ight oRebound No one knew what to expect from the basketball Totems. Pre-season optimism and anticipation turned to pessimism as the long season wore on. A short team emerged and there were. . . No rebounds. No playoffs. No tournaments. The 1966-67 edition of basketball at Sammamish was one of constant defeat. The sixth place in league standings can be attributed to a lack of height. Basketball is a game for tall men. Sammamish's tallest two stand only six feet two inches. The average height for the starting five was a mere six feet. Man for man. the Totems talent could match any team in the league. but when it came to height. the Totems came out second best. Being one of the shortest teams in the league. Sammamish managed to win only five games against eleven defeats. The height made the difference and its lack tells the story of the season. The Totems lack of height showed up distinctly in the rebounding de- partment. A team without height cannot rebound and a team that can- not rebound can't win many ball games. A tall. but over-rated Seattle Prep team handed Sammamish their first loss in the seasons exhibi- tion opened at SU. KingCo League play began as the Totems defeated Issaquah and then Bothell. leaving themselves in first place with the season only two weeks old. In return matches. Sammamish defeated Issaquah once again but split with Bothell. In the first game with Mer- cer Island.Totems almost upset the Islanders. The Totems played good ball but the Islanders were too tall and we lost, 66-62. The second time around. the Islanders were quite strong and dominated the boards. giv- ing them an overwhelming 73-50 win. Consistently. the Totems performed well but did not have the height advantage to win basketball games. Bellevue beat the Totems once in the second game. which provided the annual excitement of the tradi- tional rivalry: escaped with a three point winning margin as a late Totem rally. reminiscent of football season. fell short. The Totes once again tasted victory over Lake Washington Kangaroos in a see-saw battle which saw the lead change hands many times. John Perry put up the winning bucket with only three seconds showing on the scoreboard clock giving him 29 points for the night and the Totes a 60-58 victory. The Kangs came back to avenge the loss and did so. Our next opponent. Inglemoor. stole a sure Totem victory when a Vik- ing reserve sank a fifteen foot jump shot with only two seconds remain- ing to play in the ball game. giving them a 69-68 triumph. The Vikings jumped on the Totems 79-57 in the other half of the series. State bound Newport. led by junior Bruce Case held the Totems to give points in the second half of the first game. The Knights victory margin was at least twenty five points each time. The Totems lost to an erratic Redmond five and were faced with a possible seven game losing streak in the season finals. The season ended with a 69-62 victory over the Redmond Mustangs. l, W ., Waals' I 'is 32 we 0 Tournament W, L' 'wi ,, ,fi '4 1, ' , ' M J Qfff' ' H7 wi, . 5. 1. 2. 4.

SHORT TEAM, 1 LITTLE WINS The aggressive Bradd Bever who averaged 12 points a game was one of the Totems most valuable assets. Team leader and two-year letter- man, Phil Parsons was the consistent play maker. Another big gun for Sammamish was junior John Perry whose average was also in double numbers. Dan Leber, another two-year man was the pivot man. Chuck Simonson who joined the varsity in the latter half of the season gave the Totems another much needed outside shooter. Chuck shot 77W from the free throw line. Tom Conlin and Mark DiRe shared starting positions frequently. The back up crew included Rob Hasson, Mike Jones, Jerry Berges, Wes Kenworthy, and Mike Smoke. With a short ball club, the Totems could only muster a disappointing 5-11 win-loss record, which brough sixth place in KingCo stand- ings-a tie with Bothell, former KingCo champs. i 35 Coach Bierman scans the bench in search of a substitute.

Even after the standardized exams. static lectures and homework. homework. homework, there is still some crea- tivity left in teaching. as demonstrated by the Senior Eng- lish team of Wayne Connoway. Val Foubert and Gretchen Senyohl, who break dull tradition to present dramatized versions of the plays their classes are studying. Perhaps you've noticed the off-limit signs occasionally posted on the doors of 102 and ignored them long enough to stick your head into the dark abyss to see three mad-eyed hags screaming around a steaming pot. No. it wasn't a faculty meeting. but a Senior English Production of Macbeth. During the first semester the Senior English classes were able to see six productions. The first presentation was a dramatic reading of Antigone, which was accented when a men's chorus and tymphani backing. This was outdone by the production of Every- man with strains of the Hallelujah Chorous seeping in through a speaker. The next production was Macbeth, featuring three mad witches cackling over a bubbling pot with memorized lines. The last play was Death ofA Sales- man. Special lighting. flute and trumpet solos and Jan Hopkins running amuck in a bathrobe highlighted the performance. The last production was a semi-musical twith special help from Mr. Alan Lund and chorusl of the poems of Shakespeare. ending a successful season of performances. Snow Shapes Monument Beyond a shadow of a doubt, every Sammamish student is a unique, creative individual-whether he realizes it or not. Once this creativity is put to work, there is no limit to the things it can create as proven by a group of students who decided to show what they could do during a monument to our western heritage, they sent to work. The memorial was in the form of a modern day Custer astride his infamous horse, What's It's Name and was conveniently located in the center of the courtyard. How- ever, the Sammamish statue bore scant resemblance to that of Custer, unless What's It's Name had a broken back, short legs, a non-existent mane and melted ears. Custer was short, fat and bald. His baldness was soon disguised by the piece-de-resistance, a regulation cowboy hat construction-out of snow, of course. The eternal for is that infernal?l monument was short lived, but for a full half day it reigned regally over the courtyard. How- ever as its sad fate became a reality, it melted into an ugly heap of snow, useful only as a snowball barricade. Yet its purpose had not been lost for, in spite of Custer's last stand, the student body was reminded that they have the ability to be creative when they set their minds to it. Cuisine Saves Juniors! The Italians say Mangiau! The Americans say Eat! This turned out to be the theme for one of the most suc- cessful projects for the class of '68. SHS students and parents alike were treated to the fine Italian cuisine and atmosphere of Mangiau, Sammamish's first annual Spag- hetti Feed. Ron Cohen and Ann Doolittle, co-chairmen, were almost stoic in the faceof peril, frustration and near- ly complete failure for the Junior Class. At first the Feed looked as if it had met defeat. Mr. Hyatt then offered the class an ultimatum. Sell 150 tickets in the next day and a half or cancel 6'Mangiau'l and any success for the class of '68l' The Juniors responded and sold 230 tickets the next day. In hopes of pursuing a successful project and to try to restore a debtless economy, the Feed was deemed a dual project. On both counts the class was a success. The class welded together as a coordinating unit and raised over S400 profit. The Feed was a make it or break it project for the class in the wake of the Sopho- more Hop, Pep Week and various other setbacks. With the success of the project came the win of our basket- ball game and the night was deemed profitable on both counts. Fashion Spells Creativity Throughout the centuries, the female has faced the ques- tion of how to cover her bod! From the era of the tiger skin dress to the present mini skirt craze, fashion is con- stantly changing. Neither modesty or artiness determine the fashion mode, it is rather a desire to attract the op- posite sex. The great fashion markets offer a variety of many intriguing jobs to girls interested in fashion. Each year in Seattle, junior girls are given the chance to enter this field through Fashion Board. The Bon Marche, Frederick 8: Nelson's, Jay Jacobs and Nordstrom-Best's all sponsor these teen boards. Representatives from Sam- mamish are Mary Rybus for the Bon Marche, Vickie Arm- strong for Frederick 8t Nelson's, Caren Conine for Jay Jacobs, and Janine Vadnais for Nordstrom-Best's. As fashion board members, the girls work as sales clerks, models and attend meetings, fashion shows and parties.

He also discovered a few differences, such as Americans being friend' lier and possibly more serious. Why has he gotten these impressions? His school days are consumed with just keeping up with all that happens, with first understanding the work and then maybe the meaning in the Scarlet Letter, with translating the words in a math problem and then trying to solve it. In the evenings at the Lynden Watts' home, where he's staying, he goes off to his room to smoke and continue his work. On weekends he may take in some sailing or swimming. Or he may get together with his close friend, the Brllevue High French exchange student. 5 Dawoodbhai Ghanchi . . . most impressed Y Does He Have These Impressions? 6 7 L. if- 'nf with ASB council . . . school spirit Mr. Dawoodbhai Ghanchi tries to look at us as members of .an organized school system.

The Sammamish Girls Tennis Team, winless in the eight outings, never tasted victory in the '66 campaign. Along with the squads lack of experienced players, Coach Cutzs thinks that the short' age of junior high tennis programs in the area limited her team's play' ing ability. There were some high points among the KingC0 cellar dwelf lers, though. Teri Burbridge, ju' nior, won a number one singles match victory against the Indians of Issaquah, In her first year of competition for the red and black, senior Cathy Doody was victorious in a number three singles match versus Bothell's Cougars. Bothell again fell victim to the Totems in a number two doubles match won by Cheryl Hart and Margarite Hargrave. Sophomore Diane Smith, one .of the most promising play' ers, took a number three singles contest from the Redmond Mus' tangs.

L'If the dinosaurs don't trample us to death and if Miss Tarr doesn't eat us alive, we'll all live to see the end of this play. This play, Thornton Wilder's Skin of Our Teeth, subjects peaceful New Jersey suburbanites, the Antrobuses, to stam- peding dinosaurs, rampaging ice glaciers and the horrors of World War III. Perhaps the perils of actors in Sammamish's production of the play were not as deadly, but Director Beth Tarr presented a formidable reckoning when they missed a cue or failed to learn their lines. At times resembling a field general on DfDay, Miss Tarr com' manded rehearsals, walkieftalkie in hand, masterfully issuing orders. Other times, though, she could be seen stealthily sneaking around the set, popping from behind chairs, and whispering sweet nothings in startled actors' ears. Was she playing peekfafboo in the midst of production? No, she was just teaching performers to stay in character come fire, flood, or ice glacier. And the flood, The Great Flood, did come. Confusion pref vailed as the Antrobuses tried to pack pachyderms, kangaroos, and turtles in their Atlantic City Ark. Mrs. Antrobus Gan Hopkins, gathered up her children, Karen Cassel and Doug Hendrix, with Maid Sabina fKathy Riddlej as they ran for the Ark and a new world after the Flood.

Huffing and puffing, the Sammamish Totem Cross Country team was out there running, and running, but didn't get anywhere. The unsuccessful season was caused by continuous illness, for a week didn't go by without someone coming down with a cold, the flu, or pneumonia. The Totes started the season off against Newport and Red' mond, Newport came in iirst with 18 points followed by Sammamish with 48 and Redmond with 71. The Totes then faced Mercer Island. The Islanders ended up winning with 26 points as compared to Sammamish's 34. Then they met Newport and Bellevue. Newport won with 24 points folf lowed by Bellevue with 44 and Sammamish with 58. In the meet against Bothell and Inglemoor, Sammamish was finally victorious with 26 points followed by Bothell with 43 and Inglemoor scoring 62. In the meet against Mercer Island and Lake Washington, Mercer Island won with 34 points while Sammamish and Lake Washington tied, each racked up 48 points. To the League Meet at Mercer Island on November 7, Coach Jenkins took his five best runners. These were Jeff Adams who Hnished mst, Rick Gillette-23rd, Ted Lehfbich-29th, Ken Christensen-30th, and Dave Smith-38th. We had a much better team than we showed, but illness was constantly hampering us, said Coach jenkins. 23 Miss Grundy from the Archie comic strip hobbles in at eight and greets her students with a weak 'Lgood morning. If she's lucky 'she makes it to the right room even though her misguided motorcycle has landed her in the principal's office. Her counterpart, the stern old man with his birch rod, threat' ens the students with a whack or a sentence in the corner with a dunce cap. He wears a stark black suit while she adorns her' self with brightly colored dresses down to her ankles. However, the stooped over, hobbling teachers with cane and spectacles have yet to appear on our faculty. In contrast to the Grundy image, Mr. Fred Knoell emphasizes the qualities of the Sammamish faculty saying, In the search for teachers for Sammamish, consideration is given not only to the quality of educational and academic background, but also to the ex' tent of travel and experience beyond the normal routine. By observing our faculty during the summer these qualities speak for themselves. I traveled the Pacific Northwest on my motorcycle. Along with me I took my sleeping bag, spare tire and wife. Besides this, Mr. Alan Lund practiced with the Seattle Opera Assof ciation for the Fall '66 production of The Barber of Seville. , ,-W. .g':1it'Q,'. gr . .... 42 Ufj'.-A545 - '5- .Eisri, QQs '79 f Kilim 5. 1 ,. ,,:fT531Sw'ia1Mva?'f Q 1 'i I ziaagflll' in as . it-l,-I 15-.ay L ,. 5, .,., by as V me , - si Q Wheire Have All th 9.-.Q b:LV Vkgk k,k, rg as Mr. Singletary demonstrates to a Math class.

Instead of touring the Pacific Northwest, Miss Roberta Brown traveled to Europe, as far north as England and as far South as Greece, for ten weeks. She explained that one thing a trip like this did for me was to make me appreciate the U.S. more and the Monday morning flag salute had a lot more meaning. Like Miss Brown, other teachers of Sammamish spent time overseas, Miss Rosanne Gostivich spent fifty per cent of her time talking with the people she met on the streets, in restaurf ants on the trains, and in parks for a deeper understanding of the U.S.S.R. during her stay in Moscow, Lenningrad, and Kiev. The National Defense Education Act Foreign Lan' guage Institute at Indiana University sponsored the group of thirty teachers. Mr, Roy Felstad spent two months in the Peace Corps in Africa and traveled home by way of Madrid, Rome, London, and Sweden. Incidentally, Mr. Felstad took a brief break from activities to marry in Tacoma. Along more academic lines, Mrs. Maxine Johnson tackled a sixtyffive page paper for her extension course from Central Washington State College. Mr. Lund converses with Mrs. Liebcrg over a future recital. Mrs. Senyohl lectures on Greek tragedy. 26 . . . Gone To Stud To Learn To Seek Mr. Val Foubert passed up assign' ments and attended an Advanced Humanities' Institute at the Uni' versity of Oregon. Participants studied art, music, drama, literaf ture, history and philosophy to ex' plore ways in which these areas are interrelated and to seek new means by which these subjects could be fused into classroom teaching. Mr. james Morgan, one of our history teachers, spent a stimulatf ing summer at the UW. He asf sociated with scholars from Har' vard, Syracuse, and U.W. staff members while interpreting history. Another history teacher, Mr. 'How' ard Schmidt was given a scholar' ship by the Foundation for Eco' nomic Education to attend a sem' inar on economics in Irvington, New York. Among the counselors, Mr. Adatto was the only one from Washington state to attend the N.D.E.A. Counseling Institute in San Diego, California. Unlike these teachers, Mr. Dick Powell partif cipated in an institute, but was the instructor. The institute was the Laboratory of Radiation Biology on the U.W. campus. Mrs. Esther Arrasmith, chosen by the junior Statesman Foundation, was one of seven instructors that taught twenty 'three scholarship students for six weeks at Stanford University. Unlike Mrs. Arrasmith, some teachers became students. Along with other teachers, Miss Hilda Guldseth, Mr. Ron Andresen, and Mr. Donald Distad spent their time across the lake absorbing knowledge from the U.W. profs Mr. Wayne Connaway also spent his summer as a student. He went to seventh grade graduate school at Seattle University for eight weeks and hated every minute of it. Miss Beaudette Smith studied at the U.W. for her Masters Degree in Art.

Miss Elizabeth Alma acted as governess for two boys in Quebec and tutored them in French. Other teachers worked at Longacres, built bridges and new homes. The many different jobs added to the variety of teachers summer ' activities. Most of the student body realizes these teachers are not the typical Miss Grundy or stern old man with his birch rod, but that as Mr. Knoell says, study and travel abroad, work experiences in other occupations, and contact with people of different nationalities or socio f economic levels, establishes the basis for broader understanding and contributes to enriched teach' ing. 27 nf if tg af c -1 spa- Nick Giardina plays one from the faivway.

How did you like Pep Week? asked a senior. It was all right, if you like Stevenson Elementary Carnivals, one sophomore sneered. Many students think that Pep Week will be highest on the farce of the year list, No pennyfpushers or underclassmen covered with signs made the scene this year. The sophomores, following the great tradition set by past sophomore classes, made the attempt at success and squirmed at the bottom. Junior class bushes and purple kangaroos thundered close behind the seniors during the assembly, but the seniors called upon their genie and entranced the judges. General chairmen, Diane Summerhays of the senior class, Julie Gullet and Linda Gabrielson of the junior class, and Dan Foley of the sophomore class tried to create a little spirit before the Lake Washington football game. However, the abolition of seniority days by the administration, and the A.S.B. announcement concerning loss of privileges seemed to blow a cloud of apathy over the school. The week of pep turned out to be a few paltry decorations and a regular old pep assembly. A murmur from the sophomores, Join the Pep Evolution . . .

Coaches Bob Osgood, john Sparks and three new coaches, John Stupy, Vernell Chandler and Ted Anderson, were determined to prove the Bellevue American wrong. The Totems traveled to Vancouver, Washington for their first game of the '66 season. They lost to Hudson's Bay in a nonfconference exhibition. The Totes lone score came on Don Gonzales' 18 yard Held goal, the first for any Sammaf mish Totem, Returning home, the Totems hosted their cross' city rivals, the defending KingCo champions, the Bellevue Wolverines. The clock showed 2 :5 4 remaining to play in the fourth quarter, the scoreboard read: visitors 19, home 7. Sammamish 'kground-'emfoutv type football couldn't produce two touchdowns in two minutes and the final score read BHS 19, SHS 14. Sammamish scored once, but couldn't put that allfimportant one over with first and goal from the 10 yard line. Next came Newport, who had rolled up 107 points in their first two games. Heavily favored, they jumped off to a quick 14fO lead and early in the game it looked like a long night for the Totems. The Totes got a moralefboosting touchdown before the half and so began the five game winning streak. Sammamish trounced the Knights to pull one of the seas0n's biggest upsets 26-21 on the game inaugurating Newport's new field.

The determined Indians didn't give up the fight at the sound of the gun though, as a short brawl erupted after the game. This victory balanced the won and lost column. Bothell held R. I Williams to six touchdowns and a KingCo record while Mike Arend broke tackles, eluded defenders, and fought off tacklers for the rest of the scoring. The Totes with 45 points held the defense scoreless. The Totes took the next week off which took the punch out of the squad. A weak Lake Washington team embarrassed the Totems, but the Totes managed to hang on, 7-6. In the last home game, the Totems smashed the Redmond Mustangs 33f7. The record stood at five games won as the Totems trained for their last two games. Then it happened. In a game played in dense fog, the Islanders of Mercer Island charged to a big 2043 upset. Various miscues, failing to capitalize on what proved to be crucial opportunities and a spirited Islander squad brought the Totes five game winning streak to a halt. This loss placed the Totems in a second place slot, shared by the Newport Knights. In the season finale, the fired up Totes were out to avenge the previous week's loss. It was the last game for many of the seniors and in the locker room at half time, Coach Bob Os' good announced that it was his last game too. He bowed out of the Sammamish coaching scene in grand style with a vicf tory and his most successful season as coach. The curtain fell on the Inglemoor Vikings in a 32f6 game leaving all the applause for the Totems in their sixth victory. An explosive offense, and a rugged defense led Sammamish through their winning season. Halfback R. J. Williams, the only man in KingCo League history to be selected for AllfConference three years in a row, and the only man to score six touchdowns in a single game, also broke the KingCo scoring record, adding up 104 points this season. At the right half back spot, Mike Arend provided constant excitement with his long touchdown runs and sheer power. Bradd Bever engineered many a touchdown drive with his line running, passing and punting at quarterback. He teamed with Mike jones and Phil Parson's to make the league's strongest pass defense. Chuck Simonson came off the bench with excellent passing to give the Tote offense more balance and depth.

Three year men Mark DiRe and Don Gonzales along with Dan Leber, Glenn Jordan, Steve Jones, Tim Odegaard, Bill Thomas, Chuck Joines and sophomores Randy Johnson, Mark Leander and john Land were the blocking and tackling lineman. Linebacker Rob I-Iasson's bone crushing tackles were feared their comefback. throughout the conference, but torn ligaments in the knees sidelined Rob for three games. The Totem reserves who filled in for the year's many injuries gave the Totems added depth. It was a team effort that squashed the Bellevue American's prediction and brought home the six biggest victories in Sam' mamish history. locker Room trat Disgust is tlle wofcl for the first half. Head Coach Osgood emphatically points out the the mistakes of the Totems in the first half. The clock ru-ns out and the Newport Knights fall 26121, in the seasons biggest upset.

Vacuum packed, it seals the quality. 5 Q Our brass bass blares for Sammamish. Sho in if w , Rafi I I afternoon of practicing. The band retreats to the music room after a long Blasts of music echoed from somef where behind a thick wall. I looked around and the first thing I found were massive red doors. Curious about these new sounds in my new school, I tried to pull open those doors to iind out exactly where all the music was coming from. Would you believe what happened? Nothf ing! The doors were locked. What was the secret behind the locked doors? I walked up to a Sammamf ish veteran and asked, What's with it in there? He looked at me and whispered, It's the band. By this time, I was thinking that the band must be something pretty spef cial. I anxiously waited to hear this band perform. I found that though their appearances were few, they were exceptional and enjoyed by everyone. Unfortunately, I learned that those who smoked in the 'kcansn during pep assemblies never had the opportunity to hear them. I decided that the band must be somewhat of a secret society but I discovered there was a reason for the locked doors, a desire for pri' vacy. Under the leadership of Mr. Herman Eickhoff, the band has won the admiration of the student body. I asked several students what their opinions were of the band. One girl thought it was 'Lreally clean. A senior commented that he thought it was better than Belf levue's. A junior girl told me that uthey are so enthusiastic at pep assemblies that you just can't help becoming enthused too. Mr. Eickf hoif is dedicated to his band and over the years has tried to establish a sense of appreciation and under' standing of music in his students. Some of them have known him as their band director since elemen' tary school and have come to ad' mire his desire to make his band the best one possible. One band member stated, I've really gotten to enjoy music and I can appreciate all kinds, which is something I never did before I was in Mr. EickhofI's class, Another member remarked, I've realized that he really cares about you as an indivif dual. One girl said that 'Lhe's sin' cere and because of that you want to try harder. Mr. Eickhoff is known for such sayings as, 'iPracf tice at home-drive your mother nuts. Another is 'Tm not your mother! I noticed that not only did his students respect and regard him as one of the most capable teachers in his held, but that the teachers also considered him to be an excellent band director. One commented that he's the finest educator I've ever worked with. Another stated that there isn't a band in the district that matches our band.

A glancing blow on the head caused the collapse of Mike Fitzgerald Bellevue High fullback on September 23. Mike was rushed to Providence Hospital where intense brain surgery was performed. Sammamish students along with other schools and communities established a fund for Mike in hopes of defraying the medical expenses. Under the leadership of Mike Jones and Steve Policar a committee was started and money poured in. Out of the total S300 S131 spilled out of the hat passed at the senior lunch.

About 35 members of the Senior class marched into school wearing maroon sweatshirts with white lettering. On the back '67' was im- printed, symbolizing the year of hopeful graduation and on the front were the letters O.F.A. fout for athletics?j. Unfortunately the administration frowned on this secret or' ganization, even though it was a show of school spirit. After 10 minutes, the senior men UQ were called to the oflice. Although many of their activities' may be questioned, they donated 3540.00 to the Mike Fitzgerald Fund, demonstrating good intentions. At last, Sammamish, Bellevue, and Newport are jointly united towards one cause. These three schools are involved in a program to evaluate the progress report card as opposed to the quarterly report card system. This year, for the first time, students will know their progress every six weeks, through a continual report of class conduct, participation, attendance, assignments, and test scores, each represented by a number, as well as the letter grade for the course. Alf though this plan has been around for several years, it is not put into effect until the given final approval by Superintenf dent Brubacher, at the beginning of this school year.

W Indigestion and other stomach conditions have not been as prevalent this year due to the new lunch program. For the first time Sammamish students are both eating and maybe even enjoying school lunches. Variety has made a more select choice possible. Instead of the starchy lunches of the past years, one can now order food ranging from sandwiches to soups from salads to hamburgers from French fries to Hostess Twinkies. Does this new system work? Opinions from the students conf cerning the new lunch idea range from, It's all right and Lunch 'was still better at my old school, to, It was about time they did something with the food around here! When teachers were asked their opinions they usually replied, I never have time to eat! and one said, All I know is that my wife makes better lunches this year than she did last year. Lunch sales haven't gone up tremendously, but at least the old familiar comments like, What is this-last week's garbage? or, Know what this reminds me of? have sub' sided this year. Is this years lunch program what everybody wants? It would be,according to the decline of bad comments, but there has been a decrease of good comments too. The success or down' fall of this system is still uncertain but the general tendency of comment seems to be good. This could be the year for the lunch program that everyone enjoys.

With the sudden surge of new students, portable classrooms are again in use. Unlike their motley predecessors, the new uportablesu are considered safe for human use. The old portables were a collection of boards, chicken wire, Elmer's glue and tin roofing. Danger of the building folding over like a card caused uneasiness. But the new portables are great due to luxurious wallftofwall carpeting, a regulated heating system, and excellent classroom facilities. Purchased from Cope Industries, the portables are becoming very popuf lar due to their excellent facilities and moving convenience. It looks as if the contemporary classroom in portable archif tecture may turn out a revolutionary trend. wssrwffsm 22:54.-D mm, . 'i 1513 . Igor Symphony Stirs SHS Engulfed by contemporary sounds of Bob Dylan and Peter, Paul and Mary, the elite Sammamish students rarely subject themselves to classical music. But on a hot October 4, Sam' mamish students listened to this square sound. The Seattle Symphony Orchestra bought a variety of light and serious compositions to Sammamish. As students entered the gym, prejudiced views barred interest in the music. Yet as the sound of Beethoven, Tschaikowsky and Dvorak per' meated throughout the room, a feeling of derision changed to awe, wonder and interest. Because students are approaching the period when culture is important, an interest in an art such as classical music may be instrumental in the future.
