OWE OWE OWE stands for occupational work ex- perience. And what that means is that these students would be at school half ot the day and then they would go to work the other half. All of the jobs were out of school. The students would come to school in the morning and have all ot their classes finished by third or forth period. Then they would leave the school grounds for their real jobs. They were working just like the other workers. Mr. Bob Rutan was their teacher. OWA OWA stands for occupational work ad- justment. And what that means is that these students would be at school for their classes and then they go to work some- where here at the school. Most of the work was done for teachers in one of the buildings. Some of them worked in the cafeterias. This class is designed to help students adjust to working and studying almost at the same time. Mr. Raider and Mrs. Sharp were the teachers of this class. OWA 151

OFFICE Workers: While Mrs. Christmanis at lunch, Missy Bowman handles the problems of the office. Mary Solomon worked in Mr. Hammonds office during seventh period. Mar)- worked hard dodging all the shots some people took at her. Student Secretaries were a very impor- tant part of the office scene. Every office had at least one office worker for each period, and most of the time there were two or three per office. These workers weren't just roaming the halls all of the period. They had a variety of jobs. Stu- dents collected the attendence sheets, did filing, ran errands, answered the phone and other such things. Without the stu- dent workers the regular secretaries would have gone CRAZY. The workers were as follows . . . Trent Tesch. Carla Blanton, Tammy Ea- tepp, Laurie Woosley, Donita Pace. Anola Valentine. Marilyn Rinker, Pam Grove, Cathy McDorman, Steve Kessee, Michele Silence, Kim Jones, Shannon Spitler, The- resa Hovan, Susan Beebee, Lisa Reinhard.

MORP The third annual MORP dance was held on Friday, April 25 in the Hawke Cafeteria. MORP is a fun dance because it has almost no rules. MORP is Prom spelled backwards and that's exactly what this dance was all about . . . the total op- posite of Prom!!!!! There were no formal clothes, or fancy decorations (unless you call the flowered toilet paper fancy). At the MORP anything was considered nor- mal. People dressed up, down, punk punk-rocker!! Many broke the school rule and wore their JAMS as part of a Hawai- ian outfit. Prizes were awarded to the best costumes . . . and of course the MORP queen and King were selected. This year's queen was Ann (cha-cha) Weihner and the king was (for the second year) Yoshi T. Best of luck to our new royalty! May they rule supreme!!!! Queen for 1986 is Ann. Here she proudly shows the crowd her fabulous crown. The group Ground Control supplied the tunes for the dance. They played a vatiety of hits from all the charts. i Yoshi shows some of his new subjects just how he got to be king. It's all in the hair!
