ASB President Tom Adams impersonated him though — on dress-up day during Homecoming Week. SLIPPIN' AND SLIDIN’ in the senior courtyard was a way for seniors to celebrate t heir last day of high school on May 30, 1986. Dave Huls, Don Mespeit, Paul Chatalas, Todd Pachal, and Brian Goolsby pile on as classmates await their turn ANYTHING By KIRSTEN WESTERHOLM Let's face it. Anything and every- thing seemed to happen in 1985-86 — unexpected, bizarre, exciting, embar- rassing, and, of course, disappointing things. In September, everyone walked down the freshly waxed halls with no idea of what was to happen in the nine months ahead. But that was before you were suspended for making a ‘freshman push a penny down Senior Hall, or dozed off in early bird only to be rudely awakened by a maniac blow- ing a party horn, or had a wet golden retriever jump on the cafeteria table one morning and try to eat your home- work. lt seemed incredible that Don Me- spelt would eat TEN hamburgers at the Centurians hamburger feed for a mea- sly five dollars, or that Eric Sigurdson could land a paper airplane right on top of a camera to win it during the Chess Club’s unique fund-raiser, or that Andrew Miscoe could go one day without arguing with Mr. Nordquist. Anything can happen! Ardy Breit- meyer managed to win almost every Voice of the Gulls contest. Mike Davis had his locker broken into seven times — and he had a lock! School was de- layed because of SNOW. And there was an all-night squirt gun fight at Expo 86. And what would high school have been without some embarrassing mo- ments? Remember when Shaofeng Lui broke Mr. Priddy’s prized $80 thermom- eter — after Jay Hensleigh had al- ready broken his scientific calculator? Then there was Diane Elliott’s strug- gle to get a ring off before the playoff game against Tillamook. A friend finally yanked it off — after Coach Hamer’s Anything Can Happen “a of. REMEMBER WHEN junior Michelle Patopea aimost choked on a lemon at a pep assembly? “| had to run out because | thought | was going to puke,” she recalled. ‘it made my voice funny afterwards.” pre-game pep talk was over. Or what about Tara Smits’ fiery red face? To avoid questions she hung a sign on her back declaring '! fell asleep under the sun lamp!” Jennifer Silva’s most embarrassing moment was “During fall trimester in Ms. Robnett’s class when | was trying to change the clock so we could get out early. It fellon my head and broke and she had to get a new one!” On the way to a football game in Tillamook, Casey Corkrey and Larry Peters had to ask bus driver Mrs. Larson to stop for a potty break in the woods. Angie Golleher, the Seagull mascot, reacted to the heat and excitement of a girls basketball game by fainting. Joe Kelsay broke the 45th desk of his career and was warned by Mrs. Rosso that if he broke any more he’d have to supply his own. And plenty of exciting things hap- pened. The boys track team won the state championship. In May, the entire town was evacuated during a tsunami alert. Some physics students rigged the shower in Mr. Priddy’s room. Seniors appeared on “Two at Four” on senior skip day. And we finally got a Coke machine — only to find it wouldn't be open until 3:30 p.m. Of course, there were the disap- pointing moments too. The football team was upset in the opening round of the State playoffs. You didn’t get the part you wanted in the winter musical, and felt like killing the person who did. You injured yourself and had to cope with sitting on the bench, watching others compete. An essay you knew would get an “A” came back marked “C-’’, and you weren't picked as a cheerleader. But the good times definitely outweighed the bad. You won the class office you ran for, and even got straight A’s once. Brian Goolsby and David Huls went fish- ing in Freshman Pond, and Mr. Mizell came dressed as Santa Claus. There was the trip to Expo 86 for the band. A cast of 44 — including 4 teachers — took on the challenge of West Side Story and the musical was a smash. There was Lewis Doyle’s impersonation of Night Rider. And the hilarious faculty rendition of “The Twelve Days of Christmas.’’ Ms. Chappelle sang an original jazz number to customers in the Cafe Americian. John Zimmerling took on Mr. Priddy in a squirt gun fight. The seniors set up a slip-n-slide in senior garden on their last day at school. Dave Huls finally ate a school lunch. We all “celebrated” Mr. Rippet’s 40th birthday. Miss Julum got a referral from Mr. Priddy. Marci Folk was Snoballl Prin- cess for the 4th year in a row. Chris Brambora’s attempt to start a food fight backfired. The laughter, embarrassment, ex- citement, and tears made 1985-86 a memorable year. And anything that could happen did.

Participation was down and fun rather than funds seemed to be the goal for many The event was a colorful explosion of merrymaking for which the unofficial dress code seemed to be “wear the most outrageous duds you can mix and not match.’’ Don Mespelt and Paul Cha- talas wore hospital scrubs and took turns in a wheelchair they stoled from the fall play set. Danny Loke circled the track in a gorilla mask. Football players like Jeff Blissett could say: “| had a lot of fun and raised a little money.” For cross-country runners it was a workout: They raised a lot of money and had little fun! Andrew Miscoe ran one 40¢ lap “to miss Corri- gan’s class.” TOP MONEY RAISERS: Overall: Jeff Moon. Mike Johnson, Dan Brien, Jacque Phelan. Seniors: Josh Johnson, Molly Strohecker.

It was Home- coming 1985. When if was all over, the seniors had pulled together to grab the spirit Cup, and class president Jeff Blissett attributed it to “everybody getting involved. People that had never done anything before took part this year for the first time.”’ Monday was Nerd Day, and stu- dents came as computer whizzes — complete with taped glasses, poly- esters, and shirts buttoned clear to the neck. It was a great day for friendly jibes. As junior Andrew Mis- coe put it, “Everybody looked so normal!’’ Sophomore Eric Jacobs - €: a: —_ | ANYONE NEED A PENCIL?

Bandan- na’‘s, thongs, bell-bottomed pants and beads were essentials. “Make love, not war’ and ‘Peace, Bud” were common conversation starts Hall decorations began after school, and the classes’ themes took shape. Freshmen Hall won top hon- ors with “GTN: Gull Television Net- work.’’ Juniors were 2nd with G-TV.”’ Wednesday was a complete tur- naround from the peace and love of the day before: guys toted toy machine guns and other “deadly” weapons, imitating the popular Rambo; and Madonna-wanna-bes showed up in lace (lots of it!), mini- skirts, bows, and as much jewelry and make-up as they could stand. “Madonna day touched my heart, my eyes, and my animal magne- tism,’’ said senior Dean Major.

The airband contest featured the sen- iofS GS frOntiersmen from the early 4800's singing “The Battle of New Orleans.”’ A spoof of “9 to 5” by the sophomores gave them second, but not before it created some con- troversy due to certain aspects of Dolly Parton’s anatomy. Because of miserable weather, an activities dance replaced the tradi- tional bonfire, and the freshmen amazed everyone with their skill at pyramid-building. Being small does have its advantages! On Thursday, everyone took a break from activities, with only the jello-suck and corn cob eat at break. But it was costume day, and Ronald Reagan, the Tooth Fairy, sleeping beauties, clamdiggers, a horse, and two green men from Mars were among the many unfa- miliar guests at school. Red, White and Blue Day on Friday was a big success, and enthusiasm mounted through the day. At a loud and confeftti-filed assembly, the princesses and seniors in fall sports were escorted into the gym, and then the activities got underway. IT HELPS TO BE SMALL. The freshmen won the pyra- mid-building contest in a time of approximately one second! “| felt down and embarrassed,”’ explained Derek Gustafson, whose heavier senior team lost to the freshmen. “But we had to give them some- thing.” JAMMIN’ TO A FAMILIAR FAVORITE BY DIANA ROSS, freshmen Jamie Mako, Shelly Earl, and saxo- phonist John Reeves entertain the crowd.

Homecoming footballs were clawed, grabbed, and fought for when they were tossed into the crowd, but despite the battles in the stands, almost everyone took one home in their jacket The dance on Saturday night was a big success, with strobe lights, a video screen, good music, and a good turnout. Coach Lyons inter- rupted the dance to present Jeff Blissett with King Football, and then the princesses, their escorts, and the Queen (Diane Elliott) were an- nounced. Senior Tawny Weaver summed up Homecoming Week in one sen- tence: ‘Almost everyone was really enthusiastic, and it was just a whole lot of fun!” TOOTHPICK TO TOOTHPICK, sophomores Tor Paimrose and Tara Smits use gravity during the life saver poss competition at a pep assembly PEACE AND LOVE.

By 10:30 the cafeteria was hot and stuffy — and half empty as people drifted away to parties When the lights came on at 11:30, pupils contracted and dazed danc- ers headed to the pay phone to get rides home, euphoria or disappoint- ment over who won or lost earlier replaced by tired contentment. Dancing can do that “| WAS JUST JAMMIN’ OUT” said senior T.J.

And in 1986, both dancing and dressing up were in! Guys shelled out 50 bucks for tuxes; bare shoulders, pumps, rhinestones, and hot-rolled bobs were female favorites The Sno-Ball Court was: Seniors Ginger Ford and King Tom Butler.

Said Ken Ouellette: ‘Walking around a bunch of drunks downtown wearing a tux and carrying a wad of money. And the elk head above the band really added to the effect.” “| heard the decorations were nice,” said Steve Parson (he didn’t go). Said Jeff Blissett: ‘We were eating dinner while watching the Holmes-Spinks fight and Spinks started coughing up snot.” “Crawling under the table in a tux with a candle at the Shilo looking for Kim's diamond pin,’’ said Josh Tuckman “Being outside getting alittle air when they called the princesses up,” said prin- cess Shelly Morris Said Mark Buzzell: ‘| was taking tickets at the door and | went backstage to get something. One of the girls in the band had her top off!’’ Vince Stamper, who avoided costly tux rental by sewing his own, and who made the outrageous prom poster, will recall arriving at 8:00 p.m. ready to shuf- fle off to Buffalo with Mien Street. But the lights at the Elks were on and the band wasn't even set up. So he and date GINGER FORD WAS QUEEN of the 1986 Prom and wore the same dress her mother wore to her senior prom in 1957.

But he had been busy previous weeks orga- nizing the event. “Everybody helped out and followed through,” he said “Only next time | would’t inflate the drooping balloons until 3 hours before the dance.” A ROMANTIC MOMENT. Lewis Doyle and Kris Karge sat this one out. Said Doyle: “! was sitting at the table gazing through the candlelight into Kris’s beautiful green eyes, reminiscing about the won- derful evening that was aimost over. Suddenly we saw a spider crawling over the heaping colander of strawberries.” SLOW DANCES. “There weren't enough siow songs,’” said princess Michelle Stahly. When there were, almost everyone danced. Why? Said Gina Sanseri: “Slow dancing lets you communicate bet- ter rather than yelling at your partner above the loud music.” PROM PAIN? Meagan Erikson found out minutes before her date Erin Ayles arrived that her dress was too big. To hold it up, she used biack-pointed beads that chewed and scratched at her all night long She seems to be enjoying this dance despite the pain FASHIONABLY LATE, Jay Hensieigh and Melissa Bas- tiani arrive at the Elks.

There was still a busy week beforescommencement ceremo- nies made the end official. Many had senior finals. Some had begging and pleading to do over grades that meant walking or not walking. Theré was Baccalaureate. Lockers had to be cleaned out. And there were rehearsals for the big night. Fi- nally, on Tuesday, June 10, seventy- four seniors — ‘‘the smallest class in modern history” according to Mr. Odin — each received one of the goals of twelve years of schoolwork: a diploma. Then it was time to cele- brate with family and friends. High school days were over. THANK YOU — the final two words of her Valedic- torian address — was all Diane Elliott (above) had to say during the final rehearsal before commence- ment. That evening, though, she had to give the whole speech. Even for a 4.00 student. speaking in front of the packed gymnasium meant nervous but- terflies. Warm hugs were frequent before and after graduation as seniors like Jacque Phelan and Kay Scott (above right) congratulated each other and said good-bye HIGH FIVES and handshakes were common during rehearsals as excitement built. Here T.J. Bonney slaps hands with his friends. Then the unforgettable moment when School Board Chairmen Larry Peter- son handed over the diploma. Polly Campbell's face sums up the happy feeling OH, WHAT A FEELING! Senior class president Jeff Blissett had finished the roll call and the last of 74 seniors — Tawny Kay Weaver — had crossed the stage and received a diploma. Seniors had sung the alma mater — probably for the last time. And it was time to let some confetti fly and, for ¢ Kelley (above left) shout for joy.

For most, that meant a trip to a studio and a few hours of feeling like a star: switching out- fits, fussing with hair, trying not to be nervous. Others, like Benja- min Starling, let the studio come to them: photographer Bill Lind shot portraits on the stage in No- vember.

But anything can happen. By 1986, times had changed and seniors just didn’t seem to carry much clout. “We have no pow- er,” said Stephanie Cole. Said Polly Campbell, “It’s because there are too many freshmen. When you're the smallest class in school, you get discouraged; you get whomped on no matter what you do.” Said Dan Herford, “We're too nice.” So there you have it. The seniors just didn’t have a big enough mean-streak to put the underclassmen through hell. Either that, or they were paranoid about getting wrists slapped by a more protective administration, or of being ganged up on by a freshmen class that outnumbered them 2-1. Civilization marched on, and like the methods of Attila the Hun, some of the traditions associated with Senior Power (with a few exceptions that will remain off the record) were replaced by more egalitarian prac- tices. Darn. “TO HOLD POWER is super, to wield it is supreme,” said Josh John son. He was decked out for Hippie Day T.J.

The Class of 1986 took it upon themselves to do otherwise a lot. Immaturity was the quality most mentioned when seniors were asked to characterize their class. And with maturity levels sometimes dipping to first-grade level, anything could hap- pen. Like participating in everything from “gleeking” (use of the glands beneath the tongue to spray a person) to turning backs on the cheerleaders at pep assemblies. Like taking collections of Oreos and tater tots at lunch. Or collecting money to pay Joe Kelsay to sing TV themes. Once, when Miss Robnett was a little late for class, her World Lit. seniors wrote her name on the attendance slip, marked her tardy, and left. Th ey had a million of °em!

You couldn’t wait to get out. But at the same time, there was panic in the pit of your stomach. You’d never have admitted it, but you started thinking about how safe and snug high school was people knew you, an advisor took care of you, there was still a room at home. But all year the question: What’s next? A shaved head in the military? Searching for life’s meaning in Nepal? Pearl] diving at a local greasy spoon? Anything can happen, and you started having nightmares in which THE REAL WORLD was a thug who beat you to a pulp. Panic, yes. But you still couldn’t wait to get out. And for most seniors, greed was the motivation, Yuppieville the goal. “Bucks, I want to make money. What else is there?” said Brian Goolsby. What else? “At this time, I feel that I should focus more on a unity concept rather than college-oriented activities,” said Todd Pachal. “If not, I’m movin’ to the islands for cool waves and tasty buds.” What was next?

Senioritis drove him to one of his casiest schedules Senioritis enioritis hit the Class of 1986 early. “We were writing Class of ’86 on the school bus window in 1979 when we were in the sixth grade!” said Leanne Reid. And it just kept getting worse. Said T.J. Bonney, “It really hits after Christmas your senior year, and it’s epidemic when the good weather starts in the spring.” One of the first signs was that appearance deteriorated; seniors wore unmatched socks and old torn Levis, and stopped combing their hair. As massive pressure build up continued, they also started to skip and neglect some basic necessities — like doing at least a little homework. This was bad, since the only known treatment was graduation. Doctor of Senioritis Lewis Doyle described these symptoms: “It starts with procrastination. Then it leads to “Ah, Mom, just five more minutes,” until eventually you’re waking up around 8:30 a.m. By spring trimester, there’s no hope left. You start counting the days. You dress like a slob. You forge medical appointments. And even Mr. Haller can’t pressure you into doing your math.” DO I DARE TO EAT A PEACH? J.

Counselor Neill Branson packed up his Nikes, limited luggage. passport, ambitious goals, and “ready-to-experience” optimistic attitude and departed December 20, 1985 on a seven-month sabbatical. Destination: Africa. Itinerary: details unknown While Branson sat on planes and train s, be- friended strangers, skiied the Alps, and waited in Europe for a Kenyan visa, Mrs. Pinsky filled in as = badS FY ock PLObIOws.

But Branson's spirit re- mained as students could vicariously accompa- ny him by reading the postcards and letters ar- ranged on the front bulletin board by Mrs. We- ber As students went to basketball games, movies and dances, Branson — nine hours ahead of us — hitchhiked across the Sahara Desert, once getting a ride with a madman driver who chased a gazelle until the truck was almost out of gas He got a perfect view of Halley's Comet and the Southern Cross. How about hometown rain? Try heat and dust and heat and dust! Students were concerned with him being so close to Libya during the terrorism and conflicts but were relieved when he started on a journey home in April. Cheap rooms, unheated canned stew, and cold showers were among his exper- iences. But as Branson said: “| could not begin to measure what | have learned.” ay | help you?” the eager sales clerk asked as she twirled you around, threw you in a dressing room, piled on outra- geous outfits, and took Qway your hard earned summer-job cash. It was an an- nual scene — school clothes shopping And when you were dione, you headed back to school to show off trends — baggy Generra pants, Keds, and a pais- ley shirt buttoned at the top with a brooch: or biack 60's style stirrup pants, satin Esprit shirt, and silver ficts from Nordstroms — only to find that aimost all the people in your first period class had similar outfits. The Nordies ‘“Dad-let-me-use-the-credit-card” look shown by freshman Anne Osborne (top eft) included mens- wear, layers of oversized shirts, vests. and sweaters, and breaking the matching rule by pairing stripes with plaids. For those who didn't want to spend much on new things — lke Matt Batchelder who said “| refuse to pay for my clothes” — thrift stores, family closet raids, and fitting into last year's wardrobe provided worn-in fashion comfort Worn Levi jeans were pegged, rolled up, bleached, written on, and ripped in the knees. Faded Levi jackets that looked like hand-me-downs were bought for about $40. With prop- er scrounging, however, authentic articles could be found Sophomore Brandon Rich (top right) got his jacket the easy way: “I was in my garage and found my dad's 22-year-old Levi jacket under a workbench.” Besides magazines like Seventeenand GQ, and trendset- ters from Portland, seasons influenced styles. In winter. the point of fashion was to keep warm, usually in long, wool tweed coats, sweaters, scarves, and turtlenecks. But knee- length shorts and floral Jams were worn year-round in '85- 86. In spring. printed shorts, plaid Bermudas, Miniskirts, sleeveless mock turtienecks, tank tops, metallic flats, and primary-colored espadrilles kept school light and easy wear. Throughout the year accessories played a major role. Girls went through mom's and grandma's jewelry boxes for an- tique rhinestone brooches and pins, faux pearls, and unusual clip earrings. Handwoven, gummy, and chain bracelets were also piled on as sophomore Tiffany Stillwell (bottom left) shows. Psychedilic swatch watches were worn by guys and girls — and so were earrings. Most girls had their ears pierced two or three times while some guys started experi- menting with one ear pierced and a diamond stud or goid hoop put in. Guys had hair cut ultra short and spiked up, and started messing around with sprays, mousses, and gels. Girls tried to grow out last year’s asymetrical cuts and “almost” bobs, parted on the side, sometimes permed and now long enough to pull back into a ponytail. Said sophomore Erin Corkrey (bottom right), “| didn't know what to do with my hair when it grew out, so | got it all cut off.” Minds change along with brand names and fads through decades and eras, but the laid-back West Coast attitude remains the same. Said sophomore Steve Beneke: “At SHS fashion is casual and not taken to extremes, but our kids will probably laugh at us too.

Tami Wilison beh 45 bs : j | CUAL ail Underciass can-happen By Matt Batchelder By the time you got out of high school, you knew some pretty cool stuff. You knew about wind, and sentence struc- ture, and imaginary numbers. You knew about solar systems, and driver's etiquette, and maybe how to type. So what? I'll tell you so what. All that stuff you learned was stuff without which you couldn't have gone on to do whatever it was you hoped to do. It was such stuff as dreams are made on. Sports heroes seemed to get all the recognition: “More time is spent congratulating the ath- lete who went to state than the kid who got straight A’s all year,” said senior Polly Campbell. But when sports and jobs came into conflict with studies, many students knew where their priorities had to be and paid the price. Hey, it was hard. Ask Cathy Adams about writing a 20th Century Lit. exam at 11:30 p.m. after Q softball trip to St. He- lens. She was still wearing her cleats! It took dedication to keep after schoolwork. It also took trust that all those classes really would do you some good, that more than anything else, it was high school aca- demics that was getting you ready for anything. ‘a “IT’S A LOSING BATTLE,” said sopho- more Josh Stoller of trying to focus on alecture while the sun on his back, a warm sixth period classroom, and an impending golf practice tried to tear him away. GETTING AN EARLY START on home- work? No, sophomore Amy Sanfilli wasn't boning up on her history: she was reading a romance novel as she walked home. FOUR YEARS OF MATH are summed up in Mr Halier’s infarnous Math Analysis final being taken by senior Josh Johnson. It took most students more than two hours to compiete and when senior Dan Herford emerged after the ordeal ail he could say was, My brain is fried.”’ But hard tests in hard subjects were a welcome challenge to those who wanted to get the most out of academics. GETTING TOGETHER in Biol- ogy to figure out a particu- larly challenging di-hybrid cross are Lance Stoneman and Corey Osburn. Said Stonemen, “I! don’t know how you ever got a picture of a couple of rednecks like Corey and me doing schoolwork! “All who have meditated on the art of governing mankind have been con- vinced that the fate of empires depends on the education of youths.” -Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) BROWN NOSING Mr. Brown was easi- ly accomplished by sophomores Jason Hussa, Toni Vandershule, and Jim Keith. “Slander! Libell Whatever! See you in court, buddy “ said Jim and Jason. Well, they may have been working hard with no ulterior motives: New biology teacher Mike Brown was popular and had a way of getting his students motivated and invoived in the life sciences. 47 Academics Divider cience By Matt Batchelder Dan Herford fh was a year of change for the Science Department as three new teachers joined veteran frosh teacher Ed Johnson, bringing with them new ideas and new ways of teaching Physics student Paul McLaughlin liked that they had “lots more of a hands-on approach Mr. Priddy showed us how things worked with real examples.’ Lanny White, the only junior in the normally all-senior physics class was impressed by his older and wiser classmates: “The seniors showed great leadership, especially in the shower raid.’ Dissections were what Mark Clark remem- bered most about Biology: “We dissected mussels, starfish, grasshoppers, worms, and a baby pig. It was gross!’ Said Brenda Killion, “Once when | made an incision, this juice squirted out and hit me. | haven't made any incisions since.” A surprising moment for Michele Luck in Biol ogy was when “'| discovered that Bill and Bob (the gerbils) had babies. After that, they were Bill and Bobette!”’ Other memories: Mrs. Julum making Keith Lannigan stand up through first period for leaning back in his chair; freshmen scientists trying to transport water over 50 yards of football field (one group got a fire truck to spray the water, then tried to catch it in buckets); the smell of the sea-water aquar- ium after everything except two crabs died (“If only you could put the smell in the year- book,’’ said Mr. Brown); designing and com- peting with paper airplanes; and making up Chemistry Carols, such as “Jolly Old Neil Priddy’’ and Oh, Chemis-Tree. ’ New teachers and new ideas, and the continued presence of the one and only Bagwan Sea Rajbeach (Ed Johnson) made it a year to remember in science IT TAKES TEAMWORK to complete a cow’s heart and lung dissection, one of eight kinds of dissections done by science students.

And the teacher is going to start calling on people Math had its moments If also had it’s admirers. “| hate math,” said sophomore Brandon Rich, who apparently wasn't one of them Math wasn’t freshman John Reeve’s favor- ite subject either, but he found ways to make it bearable: “Math is okay as long as you have fun. People get too tensed up, and doing bizarre things relaxes your attitude.” What's bizarre? Bizzare is getting locked in Mr. Westerholm’s class when he took off for the teacher’s lounge. Said sophomore Traci Weaver. “We were trapped. Some people tried to get out the window. We tried to signal one of the other classes, but they didn’t see us.”’ They finally got out — late for their next period Larry Elliott Math Jim Troftiter Math and Computers Mathematicians also unwound with eraser fights in Mr. Elliott's room, and by doing paro- dies of popular songs, including “Method of Algebra Addicted to Math,’ and “Rock Me, Mr. Haller.” From addition to factoring polynomials math was a challenging subject, with new concepts to learn and assignments to turn in daily, right up until the hardest of the hard the Math Analysis final exam. After taking the 2-hour test, senior Dan Herford could only mumble: “My brain is fried.”’ Yes, it was a lot of work, but math was a testing ground and a welcome challenge to those who wanted to get the most out of academics — or get into a 4-year college Said Kevin Mergel: “Mr. Haller taught me the importance of having your socks match your outfit. | remember one day he wore a burgandy sweater, burgandy shirt, burgandy pants, burgandy socks — the only thing that wasn't burgandy were his gray Nikes.” IT WAS DANGEROUS to carry o camera to Mr. Haller’s class. This photo of freshmen Bryre Malioon and Shellie Earl was the last sophomore Matt Batchelder was able to get before his camera was confiscated by Haller Said the intrepid journalist Batchelder, “It was worth if; I'd do it again HAVING A BUDDY in math made it twice as easy “Without Erik, Algebra would have been boring,” said sophomore Travis Danforth.

Your nostrils came to life in the pleasant aroma of freshly cut pine, and you shuffled through the fine layer of sawdust, ready to get back to work on your project The most ambitious project for wood- be carpenters was the storage exten- tion to the wood shop itself built by 20 members of the Construction Class. Per- sonal projects included a replica of an antique table by Jason Smith; computer desks by Gary Culp and Dan Harvey chess boards by Mike Hein and Ryan Prouse; and the restoration of an an- tique Victrola by Victor Carey “Everybody loves woods!”’ said Eddie Whitlock. “Bring some Coke and a box of Twix and the time just flies.”’ Instructor Larry Smith was quick to add: ‘We en- joy ourselves, but we get the work done.” They also got the work done in the metals shop. They built a 23-foot plea- sure boat trailer, but most of the time they repaired what others were break- ing: tables, lockers, tools, and the kitch- en sink What will students remember? “The ‘Kiss Your Eyes Goodbye’ post- er,”’ said Mike Strain. “It’s always got its eye on you.” Said Chris McCormick, “When Keith Rooney set the chair on fire and Chuck Golleher set his mini-bike on fire.”’ Collecting information about the met- als shop wasn’t always a joy ride.

The trick was to make sure the floor they put in on the outside would be level with the floor on the inside when the wall separating them came down later. “You can't see through a wall,” said Smith, “but using a transit and some mathematics you can make it fit.” Obviously, students learned more than how to pound a nail 57 Academics = A farewell To Ed “Preparation is the biggest thing.

Obviously, not everyone liked Mr. Rippet all the time. But that went with the territory It wasn't easy being principal. That's where the buck stopped, and it was a circus jug- gling act to keep students, teachers, and the community feeling good about the school. How would you like to negotiate about song lyrics with a band called Rancid Dawg? Or patrol the cafeteria every day worrying about a possible food fight? Rip- pet on patrol, with that cool Eastwood stare freezing guilty faces at a glance was all some students knew of the principal. And some kids thought there wasn’t a real per- son behind those ice blue eyes. But surprise. There was! He was admittedly conservative, but as Mirlam Odegard Receptionist Student Personnel teacher Ann Lewis said, ‘He's always cared about this school. It’s been the focal point in his life.” Said sophomore Jason Hussa, “You can't always be popular when you're principal, but Mr. Rippet was always fair. When you did something wrong he didn’t blow up, and you always knew he really cared.”’ Rippet grew up and went to school in Seaside, and after graduating from Linfield College, returned in 1968 to teach business and coach at his alma mater. He became vice-principal in 1979, and principal in 1984 — quite an accomplishment for someone who started in the district as a kindergart- ner! It was a tall ladder, and he learned a lot on the way up. “I've become more ac- cepting and aware of different lifestyles,”’ he said, And what he'll miss most is interact- ing with a staff that he admired and “being with kids on a daily basis.’ What he won't miss are the conflicts that were inevitably a part of running a high school. And although he may miss the many hours spent supervising school activities long after the normal day, maybe there will be a little more time for golf — at which game | understand he is quite good indeed!

But while anything could happen during a performance — and a lot did that wasn’t in the script — audiences rarely detected the slips as cast members deftly covered each other's bungies. Said Elleen Reardon (right in photo) about her simpie secret for performing: “Il overacted.” “IT GIVES ME A CHANCE TO EXPRESS MYSELF,” said Jennifer Bittner about her art work. Several of her paintings were displayed in the North Coast Art Show and at the Sandpiper Gallery during the year “| think art is a class everyone should take,”’ Bittner said. “You leam a lot about yourself.”’ 60 Arts Divider THE MARCHING BAND was back in 1985-86 after a 13- year absence, and sported new uniforms. Here, Adam Lund performs with the band during half-time of the Homecoming football game. Like many serious music students, Lund had aspirations and heroes. “'! wish | could play like Maynard Ferguson,” he said. Well, any thing can happen, and he may be getting there: he started playing trumpet in Sth grade. takes private lessons, and in 1986 was Outstanding Freshman Band Member ANYTHING CAN HAPPENI Two weeks before opening night. Jason Hussa (right in photo) took over one of the lead roles in the spring comedy Once in a Lifetime from Dean Major, who had to drop out because of night school, Said Hussa, “I was really worried. It was the first big part I'd had and | spent some long weekends memorizing lines. Right before | gave up, the lines snapped in place.’’ Hussa had liked the way Major por- trayed the character and used him as a model. In the end, Hussa’s was one of the strongest roles in an out- standing spring production. Left in photo is Erin Ayles as George. THE SCREAM MACHINE roller Coast- er was one of the highlights of the band's trip to Expo 86 in Vancouver B.C. in May. Lewis Doyle took this photograph of Polly Campbell, Jon Schreier, and Grant Lund (in second car). Said Campbell, “| loved it. | freaked out.

Lewis Doyle swore he saw KGB agents in front of the Russian pavil- lion. To go on the trip, band mem- bers raised $8000 in a year-long “Band Aid” fund-raising campaign Band members learned that any- thing can happen if you work hard enough. And everyone agreed that the trip was worth all the effort HALFTIME AT THE HOMECOMING GAME featured a performance by the new marching band in new uniforms.

Said freshman Anne Os- borne, “Pep band is fun because you can be obnoxious at basketball games and not get into trouble.” For the first time in 13 years, SHS also had a marching band — and it was decked out in new uniforms. ‘It was really scary being out there in front of all those people, especially on the football field, because we had to do a lot of maneuvers and a lot of people messed up,” said Ben Keller. And although they were new, the uniforms didn’t meet with much approval. Said Mike Hogan, “We should burn them.’’ Said Michael Os- borne, “Too much polyester for me.” Fashionable uniforms or not, the marching band had a successful year, capturing an Honorable Men- tion at the OSU competition in Oc- tober, and performing at the Home- coming football game. The Concert Band placed 3rd in “WE YELLED AND STOMPED OUR FEET so much we didn't get cold.’ said senior Lewis Doyle about playing in the Pep Band at chilly football games. L-R: Josh Johnson, Mike Hogan, Doyle Nick Krizan the Cowapa League at Astoria in December, and, along with Stage Band, performed at the Christmas Concert, the Pops Concert, and at local grade schools. Said senior Lewis Doyle, “Pep band is the most fun, but Concert Band gives you the most pride. It’s a more serious in- volvement in music.”’ The trip to Expo 86 in Vancouver, B.C. May 9-412 was the highlight of the year, but getting there wasn’t easy. Band members worked all year to raise $8,000 for the trip. Their “Band Aid’’ campaign included Ra- dio Day, car washes, a benefit breakfast, and even performing as street musicians downtown. In Vancouver there was lots of time to check out the Exposition be- cause they only played for one hour on Saturday. And while the song “Business for Basses’’ was not a fa- vorite, Expo’s “Scream Machine’ roller coaster was.

First-year teacher Charles Hamilton took over as choir director with enthusiasm and high expectations. “My main focus was to build a good founda tion,’ said Hamilton. “Now that we have the foundation, we can add to it and impro ve it.” Besides the usual winter and spring concerts, the Choir sang Christmas carols at Lloyd Center in Portland, and the highlight of the year was the Cowapa League Choir Festival in Rainier. ‘| liked hear- ing all the choirs singing together,” said junior Lisa Gilbertson, choir ac- companist. “The sound was impres- sive.” Although the Choir wasn't at their best for the judges, it sang extreme- ly well at the concert later that afternoon.

Said Hamilton, “We were at our best for the competition. We sang well.” The choirs didn’t spend all their time practicing and competing. The Choir had a pizza feed as a reward for bringing more people into the class. The Jazz Choir went on a re- treat to become a closer group and ran the snack bar during basketball games What Shannon Davis will remem- ber most is Hamilton’s directing. “One day he was really getting into it.

West Side Story, the modern retelling of Ro- meo and Juliet, has been one of the most popular musicals in America since its Bloadway opening in 1957, but its serious theme, Complex musi- cal score by Leonard Bernstein, and sophisticated choreography are dif- ficult for teenagers. Why was it final- ly done in 1986? Said Odin, ‘This year we had the guys who could do it: sing, dance, and act up a storm.” Odin was right. A talented cast of forty-four sweated it out through nine weeks of grueling, sometimes frustrating rehearsals, and March 6-8 staged one of the most ambitious and spectacular musicals ever per- formed at Seaside High. For those involved, it was a one- of-a-kind experience. “It was be- yond explanation — one of those BUDDIES TO THE END, Baby John (Jim Keith) and Action (Dean Major).

But it was great! It was exhilarating!”’ “tt’s fantastic!” said Mr. George Stacey of West Side Story. He and three other faculty members be- came the first adults to appear in an SHS production since Miss Lewis starred in the Seaside Follies twenty years earlier. “They're cool,”’ said Colleen Haffner of the adults. “It was fun to have them there, and they were good.” A big surprise for everyone was the casting of John Zimmerling in the lead role of Tony. It was his first play, but he proved to the cast and audi- ence that he was the tragic teen- age lover. ‘My first reaction (to get- ting the lead) was ‘What have | done?’ said Zimmerling. After the final performance he said,‘! only wish it could have gone on forever.”’ It couldn't, of course, but the memories of West Side Story will last forever. Memories like running out of black hairspray on opening night. Dean Major falling over his trash cans. Theresa Schippers dress that kept falling down until she put straps on it.

A group has as its center a sin- gle thing: people coming to- gether with a common inter- est, need, or cause — be it to surf, build an estuary park, travel to Mexico, play chess, learn photography. or just find companionship. in this sense, it is doubtful that there was anyone for whom a group was not a significant part of 1986. THIS YEAR'S SEASIDE MARATHON may have been as cold and wet as school lunches, but sophomores Erik Jacobs and Tracy Weaver appear to be keeping cozy warm as they patiently wait for runners to pass an aid sta- tion.

Here senior Leanne Reid and sophomores Tiffany Di- meo and Amy Chishoim (hand only) decorate the cafeteria.

You learn to care more.” “it’s a lot of work — lots of maps!” recalled Steve Weihing of the year-long study students did to prepare to represent Swe- den and Belgium at the 12th annual Model United Nations at the University of Oregon. “It’s hard,’’ said Theresa Schippers. “You have to do a lot of research.” The sessions in Eugene were intense at times. “Some of the participants were out for blood,” said Chatalas. But with topics such as terrorism, human rights violations, weapon sales to Israel, and the PLO, that was inevitable. Still, “it was really fun,’’ said Weihing, “| joined because | like politics. | ended up liking Sweden a lot, and I’m going to visit there on my tour of Europe.” Model UN.

Sadly, it was a common pastime for students — and one that always held the potential of ending horribly in the twisted wreckage of a car. Teens were involved in over forty percent of drunk driving accidents in 1986. Preventing some of those accidents was the purpose of the SHS chapter of S.A.D.D. (Students Against Driving Drunk) S.A.D.D. members put signs in corsage and bouton- nier boxes before the prom that read: ‘Make this a night you'll remember — don’t drink and drive.’’ Three members attended the Oregon Safety Students on the Move (OSSOM) conference in Eugene. They sponsored a “Street Dance” to raise money and communicate their theme. And they took their message to grade schools. “The kids were real attentive,” said Colleen Haffner. “At Gearhart they even sacrificed five minutes of recess. It was a good feeling. They're going to think twice about drinking.” The group was a quiet success, its concern and ac- tion conveying a sense of responsibility throughout the community. Said Traci Scott: “We don’t criticize drink- ing, but we don’t want people getting behind the wheel if they do.” 81 Groups IT WAS ALMOST A SPEECHLESS YEAR for the Speech Club.

You finally spot a seat after being squeezed out of five others, and sit down, your elbows jammed into your ribs. Since even breathing is a struggle, all you can do is stare at your tray. Something bright yellow and red in the middle of the tray catches your atten- tion. It has a distinet, recognizable smell. You glance at the blackboard to double check. You were right. Pizza. You feel lucky, though, because today you got THREE pieces of pepperoni on top. You're ready to attack, but as you reach for your fork your heart stops: the fork is PLASTIC!! You take several deep breaths and try to reassure yourself. It’s okay, you think. Just TRY to cut it. Maybe it will work after all. Stranger things have happened. So you saw away for five non-stop minutes with nothing to show for it but a slight indentation in the cheese and a blister on your thumb. You give it one more shot, and by some freak chemical breakdown, the Pizza's resistance gives. A somewhat recognizable morsel is stuck to your fork, so you attempt to get this into your mouth. Alas, only the most flexible forks will do for the SHS cafeteria. It does a backbend in your hand, then springs forward, flinging your precious piece across the cafeteria. Sound familiar? On March 3 the cooks at SHS decided to replace all the metal forks with plastic ones. (Since teachers are presumably innocent, they continue to get metal forks.) Outcries of despair and agony became common- plac e as students daily attempted (in vain) to cut and eat their food without making it part of their ward- robes. Some even resported to using spoons, or to not eating at all, to avoid a personal vendetta with that simple piece of plastic. Well, you can relax, because the state of emergency was only temporary (we hope!). Metal forks were back in circulation on March 10. But the crisis could return. Apparently, students had been mistaking their forks for “Gumby,” because around a dozen a day were found bent, twisted, and mutilated. SHS cook Delphia Gillett said, ‘Maybe plastic forks will make students appreciate the other ones. We're even think- ing about putting all the bent forks out on April Fool’s Day.” Maybe that will teach you sadistic metal-destroyers a lesson. Please, for the sake of starving people and innocent students everywhere, treat your forks with respect. Junior Kirsten Westerholm was one of only two students who stuck with Journalism all year. An outstanding writer, her published work included a feature on local clamming legend Bob Gasner, and article on the switch to smaller basketballs for girls, and an interview with new SHS principal Roger Sauer. She also wrote this humorous column on the plastic fork fiasco 84 Groups THE GULL SEASIDE HIGH SCHOOL he?

All were sub- jects for budding journalists as instructor John Nordquist led a small and fluctuating band of students through the world of fea- tures, reviews, editorials, and menacing deadlines. The former school newspaper, The Drift- ing Sands, drifted off the curriculum in 1979, but it was on its way back in 1985-86 as The Gull. “The journalism class this year will be the foundation for a regular newspa- per next year.” said Nordquist. But even if it was a year for rebuilding, some publishing was done. Standout Kirsten Westerholm wrote numerous articles for the Seaside Signal, including a feature on the move to smaller basketballs for girls, and an interview with newly chosen principal Roger Sauer. COKE CLASSICS Artist Gabe Coke put his talents to work in the journalism class by creating cartoons on such topics as mangled forks, typical tourists, and (right) the new Coke machine. And others got by-lines in the Signal as well: Dan Herford wrote an article on Matt Batchelder’s experience at a leadership camp, Tina Miller wrote about Mr. Bran- son’s trip around the world, and the work of photographers, Mike Wycoff and Derek Krizan appeared regularty. The class also published two mini-versons of The Gulland a special Sea Week edition. And this yearbook is yet another way stu- dents got into print. In it you'll find contri- butions by Amber Taggard, Michele Luck, Ardy Breitmeyer, Gabriel Coke, Mike Da- vis, Herford, and Westerholm. So after a full year of journalism, what was most memorable? The answer was unanimous: DEADLINES! Nordquist, a self-admitted stickler on deadlines, expected his cub reporters to meet them regularly and with quality material. That often led to some “minor” fits of rage by “good ol’ Nordy,” whose philosophy was “There are no excuses.

The Excitement: The Seagull Mascot passes out in the pan- demonium and Diane Elliott sinks a free throw with no time left in double overtime to beat Astoria. The Seaside boys win the State track The Unexpected: After rolling to a 9-0 league re- cord and a 2 State ranking, the football team is demolished by La- Salle in the State Playoffs. The baseball team is ahead 7-1 after 5 innings but loses its first-round State play-off game to Drain 9-8. The Bizarre: Keith Lanni- gan performs a gymnas- tics routine on a gym bal- cony rail. Cathy Adams gets lost on a cross-coun- try course. Brian Goolsby gets a varsity letter in track. Yes, anything can hap- pen in sports, and that’s why it was so thrilling to compete. A ground ball could go through your legs. but a last-second shot could go in, The in- jury bug could bite, or you could make it all the way to the top! SOMETIMES it all came down to the end! The 3rd round of a tough wrestling match. The final hole of a golf tournament. The last 100 yards of a 3000 meter distance race. The bottom of the ninth. Fourth and goal. And you had to dig deep and get the job done. With no time left in double overtime and the score tied against Astoria. Diane Elliott was thinking. “Ok, I've done this a thousand times in practice. It’s going in!” ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN, but not much would without the unsung support of manag- ers and statisticians. Senior Stephanie Cole earned letters in football, basketball, and track as a statistician. Stat keepers worked hard at every game. then putin 3-4 addition- al hours compiling their figures so athletes and fans could know who scored the points and made the tackles. 86 Sports Divider SUFFERING from side aches and feeling down about a District race that didn’t go as well as he'd hoped it would, senior Bengamin Starling gets comfort and support from junior Michelle Dane who had run her race earlier. Comra- derie was one of the personal rewards of participation in athietics : t NOT EVERY ATHLETE played on a school team. But the look on senior Jeff Moon's face makes it clear that he was serious about in- tramural Rat Ball, You had to be to show up at 7:30 to play games before school. Of course, there were no uniforms or screaming fans, but it was fun — and very physical. ‘it’s a brawl,” said rat ball great Jeff Blissett. But his team couldn’t beat Moon and team- mates Bob Cornes and Josh Johnson in 3 on 3. They only lost to the teachers. PERFECTION was the goal of serious athietes in every sport and hours and hours of dedicated practice went into striving for it. The smooth stride over a hurdie. The perfect swing. The squeeze bunt. A set and spike at the net. A wrestling move. A fast break. The precise timing of a pass pattern. And when it all came together on the court or the playing field, and everything worked like a dream, the reward was a feeling of personal success. “Sweet” is the only way to define this handoff, said Jeannine Ward, who is about to pass the baton to teammate Amy Chisholm. Although it was a perfect pass, it wasn’t their best race, They saved that for the State Meet where Ward, Chisholm, Shelly Earl and Debbie Cline cruised to third in a time of 50.69. 87 Sports Divider Varsity Football RETURN™ When the season began, they were predicted to finish dead last; by mid- season, Daily Astorian sports editor Mark Johnson was asking: “Can any team in the Cowapa League stop the Sea gulls?’” And when the regular season ended, he had his answer: Seaside was ranked number two in the State. They had rolled powerfully to a 9-0 regular season record, demolishing Astoria 44-0 and beating Tillamook for the first time in 10 years along the way. Anything can happen! Number 15, team captain Tommy Ad- ams was one big reason for that suc- cess. Adams did it all: quarterback, de- fensive back, punter, punt returner, kicker. ‘I’m not one to sit on the bench,” said Adams. “| feel a need to contri- bute.”” Adams passed for 1172 yards, threw for 13 touchdowns and ran for 9, and won a long list of awards, including Cowapa League Offensive Player of the Year IT'S TIME FOR THE HAMBURGER CREW. The Gulls secondary unit stepped in to give Jeff Blissett and Tom Butler a breather All League running back Ken Quel- lette led Seaside’s powerful running game, rambling for 1224 yards and 14 touchdowns. Shawn Gilbertson (25 catches for 349 yards) and Jeff Caldwell (19 catches for 256 yards) were the Gull’s top receivers. Jeff Blissett — The Lunch Box — led Seaside’s defense. He recovered 3 fum- bles, led the team with 110 tackles, and was named Cowapa League Defensive Player of the Year Said Coach Stubby Lyons of the de- fensive unit: “There aren‘t enough su- perlatives in my vocabulary to say how those guys played.”’ The likes of Eric Ber- gerson, Tom Butler, Steve Beneke, Bill Westerholm, and Dave Huls were formi- dable to say the least, holding oppo- nents to only 70 points, while an out- standing offensive line opened up the holes for the Gulls to score 323 points Lyons was Cowapa League Coach of the Year in ‘85, and coaching was a big factor in the success story. More person- nel made a difference. Assistant Coach Bruce Buzzell manned the press box, sending advice down to Robbie South- worth on the sidelines. And former All- State Center from Gladstone, Steve Herder, helped mold the offensive and defensive lines into cohesive units “Fantastic, yes, if anything Fantastic,’ said Eric Bergerson after Seaside beat Clatskanie 35-8 to finish the season un- defeated. It was a jubilant moment, and in the aftermath, Lyons was dragged through the mud and all the coaches were doused with orange juice. ‘| don’t care about the mud,” said Lyons. “They can put me in a dunk tank if we keep winning. But against LaSalle in the first game of the State Playoffs, Seaside’s perfect season ended. in front of packed stands on a cold, rainy Saturday afternoon at Broadway Field, the Gulls lost 35-6. “We couldn't get anything going from the start,”’ said Blissett. “They played their best game of the year; we didn’t.” Standing in the rain after the game surrounded by his team, Lyons said “When you know you gave it your alll and you are defeated, you must be man enough to admit it. If there is a winner, there must be a loser. Th at’s why they have scoreboards.”’ Said Blissett: ‘Playing on a team like this was a great experience. There are so many memories that we'll remember for the rest of our lives. Not everyone can say that they went through the league undefeated.” Derek Krizan ee er A 73-YARD RUN ON THE FIRST PLAY of the game against Clatskanie was one of the highlights of 30 Ken Ouellette’s outstanding season READY FOR THE SNAP, junior tackle Ken Link and sophomore Craig Camberg STRETCHED OUT for that extra yard, senior Shawn Gilbertson averaged 4,3 yards per carry and was Seaside’s top receiver ALL STATE: ‘s wapod League OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR COACH OF THE YEAR Mr tubby CAPTAINS: Jeff Blissett.

They were led by strong two-way players — like Matt Clark, who ran for 781 yards and had 65 tackles; and quar- terback safety Brad Zeppieri, who had 34 tackles and passed for 533 yards The team started strong, winning three in a row; then lost the next two. “We should have won those games,” said Chris Brooks. “We knew they were tough, and we just didn't get ourselves prepared.” But they came back. “The last three games they played as a team,”’ said Coach Wally Hamer. “Everybody did their assignments, especially the lineman, and the backs ran hard.”’ Said Coach Mike Brown, “In prac- tice and in games they began to cooperate and teach each other.”’ Defensively, the Gulls were tough, holding opponents to 12 points in the last three games. Brett Johnson had 29 tackles and 2 interceptions on the season; the formidable “Bruise Brothers’’ — Chris Brooks and Chris Brambora — worked together at the linebacker spots for 97 tack- les. “On defense we were a kama- kaze team,” said Brooks. Zeppieri agreed: ‘Pla ying safety is great because receivers are never looking and you can go right up and nail ‘em.”’ This law-of-the-jungle attitude characterized the 1985 Frosh: a tough team to beat.

At least on the court when they were told to be by first-year coach Jon Gabriel. “That meant going after it, never giving up on anything, practicing hard, and being intense,” said Kir- sten Westerholm. The result was that in the wild kingdom of the Cowapa League, Seaside’s varsity girls reigned. They went 12-0 in league play, 22-1 over- all, and ended the season with a trip to the State Playoffs in Eugene. The season started on the beach in August where conditioning in the sand was agonizing, and the whis- tling of male onlookers embarrass- ing.

Jody Ord- way and Kirsten Westerhoim both gave it their all, and believe it or not. it went over ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN! Jeannine Ward had a sweet killer spike at Astoria. Unfortunately, it didn’t count because they were out of rotation And when short sizes were printed in the sports programs it wasn’t much better. “Boy was that embar- rassing,’’ said Jennifer Ferrier (size L). Said Westerholm (size M), “The worst thing was that there was only one small.” There were few embarrassments on the court, though. It wasn’t a season of cliffhangers; it was rarely even close. But the charmed life ended at State. In their opener against Sius- law, Seaside led in the first game 10- 4, but ended up losing both that game and the match. In consola- tion, they beat McLoughlin and Es- tacada and lost to Elmira. “We didn’t place, but we did have a good time together as a team,”’ said Michelle Stahly. Said Jody Ordway, “We took hot tubs, went out for pizza, went shopping. It was quite an experience.” Angie Golleher A BROKEN ANKE she got early in the season in a collision with Lisa Gilbertson, put Marci Folk in a cast and on the sidelines — but not off the team.

In his first year of cross country, he set his goals high from the start and it paid off Behind veteran team-leader Vince Stamper, Everette was the Gull’s 2nd man for most of the sea- son, but he was the only Seaside runner to qualify for State at the Dis- trict Meet, where the team finished 5th. At the State AA Championships in Eugene, Everette placed 25th in a time of 17:9:4 over 5,000 meters — the best State finish ever by a boy from Seaside Jeff Street was another outstand- ing performer in 1985, always just a few steps behind Everette and Stamper. But “the team lacked a consis- tent 5th runner needed to get them to the top,”’ said coach Gene Gil- bertson. Against Cowapa League foes, Seaside was 3-3, but only five points kept them from being undefeated: They lost to both Astoria and Scap- poose by the score of 28-27, and to St. Helens 29-26. The JV Team ran well throughout the season and everyone could boast of improvement. Senior Dan Herford toured the home course in 22:33 the first time out, but im- proved by season's end to 20:43. That kind of improvement comes from setting goals and striving for them and believing that anything can happen.

What a game!” It was tied at 39 after regulation play, and with no time on the clock in the second overtime it was tied at 46. But Diane Elliott was at the foul line. She made the first of two free throws and Seaside won, 47-46 The Gulls advanced to State as top seed from the Cowapa League, but lost in the first round to Madras 40-38, and to Elmira the next day 45-30.

When the chips were down they rose to the occasion and got into State.’ After finishing in a tie for second- place with Tillamook, the Gulls beat the Cheesemakers 46-43 in a do-or- die game to gain a playoff berth. Elliott led Seaside scoring, aver- aging 12 points per game. Shelly Morris, Elliott, and Tracie Earl were top rebounders with 135, 126, and 109 respectively. Michelle Lounsbury led in assists (75) and steals (85). As proof that Anything Can Hap- pen, Westerholm recalled the time Ginger Ford blocked the one and only Amy Reinbach, and the time when “in the heat of all the excite- ment during the Astoria playoff game, no one noticed that our poor Seagull mascot Angie (Golleher) had fainted.” Said Folk of the 1985 season, “ ! will remember how we stuck together and how much fun we had, espe- cially at State.

The team won 17 games, lost only once (to Tilla- mook), and averaged a remarkable 47 points per game. “We had some close ones, but always pulled through,” said Tami Stamper. And although there were a few close ones, the frosh simply out- classed most of the opposition. No need to embarrass anyone by naming names, but it was a season of lopsided scores like 45-7, 67-19, and 59-29 And with Janie Hogan how could you lose?

And although the Gulls finished 6th at District and qualified no one for state, all 20 team members got to wrestle, and they scored twice as many points (1124) as the year before The team included the biggest guy in school, senior Dave Huls, and the small- est, freshman lan Goldspink. Huls was Seaside’s best District finisher with a 3rd in the heavyweight division. Goldspink won only his forfeits during the season, but improved consistently. Said senior Grant Lund, “He was the only guy who couldn‘t make weight because he was too light. He always had to drink water before he weighed in.” Jon Schreier was Seaside’s most out- standing wrestler.

This year it seemed to bounce past us into center field a lot.” -Junior Kirsten Westerholm A dark cloud with a silver lining Yearbooks aren’t supposed to take you back to the future (there was a movie for that in 1986), but the future was what everybody wanted to talk about after the var- sity softball season. “When these girls get older, they'll be really good — good enough to be State champs,” said senior out- fielder Sue Howarth. “With a little maturity, and a little preparation before next season, there's no reason why we can't be competing for the league cham- pionship next season,” said Coach Carol Stutesman. Both are probably right. The team included only three seniors — Diane Elliott, Stephanie Dalrymple, and Howarth — and lots of talented sophomores and freshmen. But whatever the future holds, they were in the Cowapa League cellar in ‘86, finishing with a 5-9 league re- cord and 8-12 overall. It was a painful year. Melanie Bal- lou broke a thumb against Scap- poose. Anne Caldwell sprained an ankle mimicking someone’s walk in a grocery store. “Howarth came out of basketball with an ankle that looked like Godilla’s, ” said Stutes- man. And Kirsten Westerholm’s knee kept her at first base — coaching. You got the feeling talking to players that rain-outs were season highlights. And it was rain that forced them to play most of their games at Gearhart — where play- ground equpment seemed to em- phasize the team’s youth, and the absence of an outfield fence and a lumpy field resulted in looooong balls for heavy hitting opponents.

But the Gulls recovered, went on to an 11-5, second-place finish, and headed for a first-round State play- off game against Glide May 23. “We were up 7-14 in the 5th in- ning!’ recalled catcher Keith Rooney. “It was unbelievable that we lost by one (9-8) in the end.” “Everyone was shocked,” said coach Jim Auld. ‘But it happens ev- ery day in the major leagues.

And the event that ev- eryone except the coach said they’d remember most seems to ex- plain why: When the game against Astoria was rained out on January 45, the gang decided to take ad- vantage of conditions for a little slid- ing practice on the muddy Gear- hart diamond. They started by dragging coach Mizell through the mud, then slipped and slid until everyone looked like things very primitive on the evolu- tionary chain. Afterwards, Cathy Adams had to ride home in the trunk of Angie Golleher’s car to save the upholstery. “It was great,”’ said Ad- ams. “We were doing stomach slides in the muck, and when it was all over | was caked with about an inch of mud head to toe.” Yes, it was a “totally couch sea- son” and the most incredible feats of athletic agility took place not on the field but on the bus — remem- ber Golleher’s climb into the lug- gage rack? The team was so small that one time stat keeper Kristi Derby almost had to dress down. “We weren't dedicated to sports,’’ said an anon- ymous source. “We even stooped to letting Angie pitch.” Actually, the team had a great season — when Stephanie Ballou pitched. The outstanding freshman helped the team to a 4-5 league record and an 8-5 record overall. When she wasn’t pitching? Well, they did Marx brothers routines out in right field.

Not much can be said, how- ever, since Coach Lyons threw the stat books out around midseason when he found his play- ers were too interested in personal glory rather than in teamwork Some players got the message, though. “My favorite part of base- ball is meeting people you're play- ing with and becoming better friends,’’ said Brad Zeppieri. The highlight of the season, if you can call it that, happened in a game with Rainier. Rainier could only manage to field 7 players; there- fore, Seaside had to loan them Eric Sigurdson and Brett Johnson. The game went on, but had an ironic ending. Due to the outstanding per- formances of Sigurdson and John- son, the Columbians rose to victory. The two terrorized Seaside for three hits and made some great plays in the field.

The team van got pulled over on the way back froma match for crossing the centerline. A golfer from Vernonia got busted for stealing tee markers at Sub-District. And the team’s best golfer shot a miserable 92 on the first round at District but came back the next day to qualify for State. But according to Coach Vaughn, it was “An average team, and an average year.”’ The average year started out with one outstanding golfer Derek Gustafson; a good back-up golfer — Casey Corkrey:; and a dogfight for the last three varsity positions between Jeff Rippet, Greg Swedenborg, Gregg Lundberg, Tom Palimrose, Nick Krizan, Jason Boyd, and Richard Schinderle. Rip- pet, who ended up making ten of twelve varsity matches, said, “The two matches | didn’t golf varsity, | didn’t even shoot well enough to make the JV team.” While his teammates were play- ing their own version of the Oregon lottery, Gustafson shot matches in the 70’s and low 80's. His 77 average was the lowest on the team, and simply outstanding for a high school golfer. But at the District meet he got into a very tight spot. “On the first day, | shot the worst round since my freshmen year — a 92 — and | started thinking: Uh, oh, here we go again,” said Gustafson, who failed to qualify for State the the second-place medal. And he almost won: “It went down to the very last hole, the very last putts,’ said Gustafson. Coach Diane Julum called the girls season a “rebuilding year,”’ and it was just that. After a late start put- ting a team together, they were un- able to schedule a match and spent the entire season practicing. Only Marci Folk got into some com- petition. She went with the boys to Scappoose — but she refused to reveal her score!

HOOD in 1986 was also a reminder of how precious life is and how important it is to live life fully. Seven students and two teachers from the Oregon Episcopal Schoo! died on the mountain in May 136 A Final Look 1985-86. .. Natural disasters, tragic acci- dents, and violence stunned the world in 1985-86. In September, a massive earth- quake hit Mexico City and in four minutes 250 buildings collapsed and as many as 20,000 people died. In November, the long-dormant Nevado del Ruiz erupted, unleash- ing a mile-wide avalanche of ash and mud that buried four sleeping towns in an Andes Valley 100 miles northwest of Bogota, Colombia. An estimated 25,000 lives were lost in one of the deadliest volcanic erup- tions in recorded history. In January, Americans every- where watched in disbelief as the space shuttle Challenger exploded 74 seconds after liftoff. School teacher Christa McAulliffe, Ameri- ca’s first civilian astronaut, and six NASA astronauts perished in the fi- ery explosion. In late March, U.S. jets and war- ships destroyed two Libyan patrol Disasters Stunned The World boats in a dispute over Col. Moam- mar Khadafy’s claims of sovereignty over the Gulf of Sidra; and on April 44, the U.S. conducted a series of air strikes in retaliation against alleged Libyan terrorism April 26, a reactor fire at the Cher- nobyl nuclear plant in the Soviet Union spread an invisible cloud of ra- diation across northeastern Europe and even the West Coast of the U.S. It was history’s worst nuclear accl- dent. By May, the death toll was 23, it was feared that as many as 400,000 Soviets would suffer long- term effects of radiation, and the land and water for miles around the plant had been poisoned. May 12, a 13-member Oregon Episcopal School climbing party was lost in a blizzard on Mount Hood Two members of the group hiked off the mountain for help after one night in a hand-dug snow cave.

Only two 16-year-olds survived. Actor Rock Hudson died October 2 at age 59 after a year-long battle with AIDS. He won sympathy and at- tention for victims of the still incur- able disease, but there was also widespread fear that led to children being barred from schools. Anger exploded over South Affri- ca’s racial politics — inside and out- side that country — and the black struggle against apartheid was marked by violence, death, mass arrests, and fear of a bloody civil wor. The 20-year rule of Philippine Presi- dent Ferdinand Marcos was crushed by a people’s revolt and his and his wife’s excesses exposed. Corazon Aquino took his place. Nicarguan contras continued to fight the Sandinista government, and Reagan fought to aide the contras, while some feared Ameri- A Final Look can troops would soon be involved in another Vietnam. Afghan rebels continued their mountain war against Soviet invaders. Terrorists continued to inflict their senseless violence on the innocent, including hijacking an Italian cruise ship and kiling an American passenger, and bombing a Trans World Airlines jet- liner, hurtling four Americans to their deaths over the Mediterranean Sea. Most of us were not touched di- rectly by these events. But we were touched in some way. When natural disasters struck, we saw volunteers and relief pour in from around the world to help and were reminded of the resources of strength and cour- age that we can draw upon in times of trouble. The deaths of astronauts and mountain climbers reminded us of how precious life is, yet how im- portant it is to push our limits and have high aspirations. And there were other good things happening in 1985-86. There was ra- cial violence in South Africa, but we celebrated the first Martin Luther King Jr. Day on January 20, a tribute to a man who fought for racial jus- tice. May 25 millions joined hands across America to raise money for the hungry and homeless. Reagan and Gorbachev met in Geneva at the first superpower summit in more than six years. For the first time in the history of satellite broadcasting, a live, two-way television linkup joined five continents for the presentation of the Beyond War Award. And even music had a message. Live Aid and Band Aid and Farm Aid and an antiapartheid album reflected the deepening social activism of the re- cording industry and, perhaps, the deepening awareness that we are all involved in the issues and events that unfold around us.

Everybody else is up at Spruce Run and we want to be there too, so we're abandoning real writing. We'll just list whatever occurs to us in the next 15 minutes in whatever order it occurs. Here goes. Bye-bye Bagwan was a big story. He pleaded guilty to two felonies and agreed to leave the country. The whole thing was pretty messy considering the dream was a utopian commune. Penny Harrington, the first woman po- lice chief of a major American city re- signed under fire June 2. Portlandia, a 38-ft. high copper statue went up on the Portland Building. CONTINUED ON PAGE 140 ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN In May, two guys were among those trying out to be cheer- leaders. Sophomores Brad Cor- rigan and Ken Link (below) both made the Varsity Basketball Cheer- leading Squad. They were more than a little disappointed, however, when the two ‘girls they tried out with — Missy Middaugh and Lauri Mako (below) didn’t make it. The addition of yell kings promised to make the ‘86-87 season an interesting one for new cheerleading advisor Karen Mattocks. 139 A Final Look 140 Stubble was in and we all survived the Big Wave Better safe than tsunami! May 7, there was a tidal wave alert after some un- dersea earthquakes near the Aleutian islands. About 4,000 people headed for high ground, but the big wave never came For a while there were 86 students in the Class of ‘86 (alas, only 74 ended up graduating). First day enroliment at the high school was 477 Taking statistics — the population of Gearhart finally reached 1000. And Sea- side shrunk a little when several houses in Falcon Cove slid into the ocean — and several near the mouth of the Necani- cum almost did. There was a big ruckus over rock lyrics and some album covers started includ- ing warnings about bad language. Tri- cycles were the big fad. Calvin Klein un- derwear ads were great. Swatch watches were in. The Cosby Show was still the best! Don Johnson and Phillip Mi- chael Thomas of Miami Vice were BIG! Thanks to Johnson, stubble was in (if you A Final Look could grow it). Branson was in Africa. New York's Playboy Empire Club introduced the first male bunnies. Halley’s Comet made its once-every-76-year visit to our solar system and you could get Halley’s T- shirts, Frisbees, mugs, bags, books, and everything else. The Statue of Liberty celebrated her 100th birthday and was looking good after a total restoration. Movies? Out of Africa won seven Os- cars but how many teenagers could ap- preciate that kind of quality? Rambo: First Blood, Part Ilwas much more popu- lar Clint Eastwood became mayor of Carmel, Calif. Voters made his day! Coca Cola turned 100 and SHS finally got a machine. Old formula Coke was back as “Classic Coke.”’ Barbie turned 26. The words “yuppie” and “word pro- cessor’’ made it into the Oxford English Dictionary — Definitely signs of the times. What was hot? Levis 501’s. He-Man and Rambo. Stirrup pants. Paisleys VCR's. Diet chocolate pop. Being on Two at Four. Aid concerts of any kind Prince Charles and Di (they came to the U.S. and made a big glamorous splash) Cybill Shepherd of Moonlighting (the sexiest woman on TV). Tom Selleck of Magnum P.I. (sexiet male). Bob Dylan, Foreigner, and Tears for Fears (all did concerts in Portland) Worst Idea of the Year award goes to the Dept. of Energy. They named the Hanford Nuclear Reservation as one of three finalists for a place to bury 75,000 metric tons of highly radioactive waste. Five miles from the Columbia River!!? No thank you. If was bad enough walking to school in nuclear fallout from Cherno- byl. So there you have it — everything we can recall in 15 minutes about civiliza- tion in 1985-86. It was “awesome.” heres, gurnpy Sh SYIES “BN ENGRAVED BABY CUP FROM HIS UNCLE SAM— HOW THOUGHTFUL!” THE FUTURE: CHALLENGING OR DEPRESSING. Well, it was how you looked at it. Gramm-Rudman cuts aside, the federal deficit looked bleak. And issues from Star Wars to pollution to abortion to Nicaragua seemed overwhelming.
