He always has a smile for everyone and is always willing to help students with their problems. Mr. Zellick is in charge of several different duties such as: personnel, staff, building equipment, district purchase and work orders. He also disciplines the students and is in charge of homeroom activities. Mr. Zellick said, The publishing of the school paper is another step forward to a complete high school program. -.Sw vw ALF FLATEN Vice-Principal Vice-Principal at Thurston, Alf Flaten, has a variety of different jobs. He is direc- tor of all student activities, finances and discipline. Mr. Flaten is also in charge of programing, scheduling, and transportation. Our Vice-Principal works very hard and we should all be proud we have such a capable person in this office. Mr. Flaten looks over the first edition of our new school paper, The Pony Express. Counselors Mr. Drake is a new addition to the coun- seling department this year. He assists with almost everything in the office. He is the scholarships chairman, helps with registra- tion, college admissions, and numerous other duties Mrs. Howard is kept very busy as advisor to the Rally Squad. However, she is never too busy to sit down and help students solve personal problems. She also plans sche- dules, and discusses other matters with which a student may be having difficulties. The able advisor of Student Council and and Boy's Alliance is Mr. Huey. He also helps with the scheduling of classes, assists students with personal problems, and gives advice on vocational matters. l l MRS. HOWARD MR.DRAKE MR.HUEY Faculty Thurston's success depends a great deal upon our faculty. As the years have progressed, THS has had teachers come and go. During the summer of '63 we had fourteen new teachers come to our school. This one of the finest faculties we have had. As we have gone through this year we have had many problems and with most of them we have gone to our teachers. Beside letting us cry on their shoulders, our faculty works more than we realize. At the games they supervise, sell and take tickets. They are advisors to all of our clubs. ln fact, the teachers are usually the ones who get the clubs started. Also we have two advisors per each class. Through the efforts of our faculty, we the students have gained more knowledge and guidance. ln the future years using this as back- ground we shall strive to make the best of our lives and to become better citizens.

Thurston's cafeteria provides two types of food to its students. An a la carte service, and a snack bar where such things as milk shakes, sandwiches, potato chips, sundaes, etc. are sold. There are approximately 800 meals served daily. Student workers assist the regular cafeteria personnel during the lunch hours to ease the rush. Along with the excellent work of our custodians, they are devoted to the school's beauty and cleanliness. Mrs. Lynch, our school nurse, keeps very busy taking care of the sick, We are fortunate in having such a dedicated person. fl GYDA COMBS MARY HOWARD THELMA WELLS DORIS FELDMAN PEARL RAYMOND FAYE BRANDT BETTY CLAUSEN CLARETT BIRDSAYE DARLENE SEWELL DELEATA ROPER MRS.

The student council, made up of homeroom representatives, class and student body officers, and appointed members, met twice a month this year. Their primary function was to promote par- ticipation in student government. Under the or- ganization's leadership, four maior constitutional changes were made, one which changed the num- ber of girls on the varsity rally squad from seven to six, another limiting the boys' rally to not more than three members, and a fourth changing the voting policy on amendments. A maiority is now defined as three-fourths of those who vote rather than the past majority of three-fourths of the registered voters. FRONT: Sophomore Class Presi. dent Jim Montgomery.

They must have been lucky for the school, for that year the Thurston Cross-Country team took the State Championship. The team had as a mem- ber an outstanding sophomore, Dennis Smith. Cross-Country was not the only sport that the Colts shone in during that first year. A So- phomore member of the Colts track team, Jim Sagle, was selected to compete in the State Track Competition. Scholarship, too, had it's outstanding Sopho- more. Don McAlister received an award for Chemistry. Class officers for '6l-62 were Bob Shields, President, Alice Doster, Vice President, Vivien A como! The S , standing for Springfield High, is burned in the patio, an event masterminded by the Senior Class. GOING! of the Class of '64 Christenson, Secretary, Linda Wilson, Treasurer, Warren Glaede, Social Promoter, Don Richardson, Sergeant-at-arms. The Juniors each year give the Junior-Senior Prom to honor the graduating Seniors. The theme chosen by the class of '64 as Juniors was One Enchanted Evening. The Ferraris, a local band, provided music for the gala occasion. The theme was carried out in the myriad of silver stars which hung from the ceiling. A bridge brought the guests from the world of everyday into a magic land of stars and soft clouds. Two girls, Susan Knecht and Alice Doster, were chosen to attend Girls' State, with Sharon McCullough as their alternate. The officers in that year were Earl Camp- bell, President, Nancy LaFleur, Secretary, Diane Janz, Treasurer, Warren Glaede, Social Promoter and Phil Nyburg, Sergeant-at-arms. GONE! Outstanding Senior Athletes Senior gymnast Jerry Alvey placed first in tumbling, fifth on the tram- poline, and seventh in the floor exercise in competition at the state meet. He led the young Colt gymnasts to tremendously im- proved performances. Thurston had several good senior basket- ballers this season and voted Most Val. able of these was Don Richardson. Don held an excellent shooting percentage and had a high per game point average. His backcourt strength was invaluable. 7 Fullback Bob Sheilds has been chosen to ioin the top players in the state in the second Shrine All-Star Football game in Portland this summer. Bob was elected captain by his teammates and chosen Most Valuable at the end of the season For three years Jim Sagle has been a valuable track star, but he seems determined to end his high school career with a flourish H started off his senior season by breaking individual, track and meet records and is steadily improving. 5 P' ff lf Y f J .. ,Qi fa: wsu 4114-'UU'-W -a , , iffy 23555 MSE , K' 1 i N , , Q K x 1 , 2 Q Q V is ' k Q Q, W. w' wg., .

Language Arts Mr. Hunt demonstrates the art of make-up in a senior English class. Drama, short story, novel, and poetry are the forms of literature that the sophomore English classes are primarily devoted to. The Junior English course is an introduc- tion to American literature, along with American History. These courses offer the juniors an opportunity to understand their own culture by reading the works of others who have been sensitive to their surroun- dings. Senior English is a survey course in the fundamentals of English composition. Junior English students participate in class discussion.

Speech presents the fundamentals of good com- munication by emphazing control of stage fright, monnerisms, posture, movement, gestures, flexi- bility, proiection of voice, pronunciation and listen- ing habits. Students learn to organize and present extemporaneous, impromptu speeches, panel dis- cussions, special occasion speeches, radio and television broadcasts, interpretative reading, choral speaking and story telling. Larry Newby is practicing speaking in the microphone to his audience. V X n Foreign Languages Mrs. Patterson's language classes find declensions interesting, coniu- gations exciting when she applies the talents gained through many years of experience. Eine, Zwei, Drie, Wier, German, Latin, French, and Spanish students use the language lab daily. The language of the land South of the Border comes alive through Mr. Horrillo's illustration. The customs, dress, and history, the political and economical positions of Mexico and Spain are examined with respect to the United States. Skill in a modern foreign language may have many prac- tical uses. lt may prove valuable in business, in government, in the professions, or in studying the arts. Specialization in language study can lead to attractive career opportunities. Then, too, some colleges and universities require a foreign language for admission or for a degree.

The Yearling Each year your annual comes to you through the efforts of The Yearling Staff. At the beginning of each year, the class studies techniques of layout and copy writing, as well as the technical aspects of yearbook production. They are also responsible for making up the layouts for the pages, writing the copy, getting the pictures, selecting cover and end sheets, and organizing The Yearling into the book you receive. Journalism i Working on layout and copy are Bob Peterson, Cindy McKay, Linda Nunn, Sue Knecht, Janice Jones, and Terry S Sutton. Preparing copy for publication are Larry Newby, Bob Shields, Cathy Hutcheson, Mary Graves, and Dorothy Courtney. The Pony Express The Journalism classes, at the first of the year, study the basic principles of newspaper writing, layout, and production. Later these principles were put into practice in the finished product, Thurston's first regular monthly news- paper. To decide on o name for the paper, a suggestion box was placed in the cafeteria. The suggestions were collected and voted on by the journalism classes. The name finally decided on was The Pony Express. 32-K i . ,., S-. f. ppl we.-......-Y Putting the finishing touches on The Pony Express are Dole Tuomi, Sheila Walker, Hal Daughters, Do- reen Puchalski, Shirley Dean, and Karen Ferrill.

Modern Problems, American History, and World History, are the three Social Studies courses offered at THS. ' Modern Problems is required for all seniors. lt helps the students to realize the M problems of today and prepares him to take his place in society. American History is required for all iuniors. It includes a study of our consti- tutional government, westward expansion, industrialism, and the Civil War. World History is an elective course open to anyone interested. lt is a study of nations and empires from early civili- zations to the present world powers. Mr. Cochran explaining to the class the Dollar Diplomacy in American History. World History is being illustrated by an outline ofthe early English era. All students at THS are required to complete at least one year or more of math. Many student also take it for an elective course. Thurston High offers a variety of math courses which include: Basic, Practical, Functional, Advanced, Advanced Math ll, Consumer, Algebra l and ll, and Geometry. Mathematics at THS fits a wide area of individual needs. Math Mr. Stuckey is supervising a study period in Geometry with a back- ground of bulletin board showing the necessity of symmetry necessary to the understanding of this course. Hu.. My Q-- Mr. Horrillo uses an overhead projector to illustrate the filling out of checks and various business appli- ? cation forms. 4 75 5-dm Biology l is for all students who are seeking general, accu- rate information concerning life. They study from the simplest form of life to the most complex. The students also study plant and animal behavior, growth and reproduction. The Biology ll course is for students who want to go further into the more com- plicated fields of Biology. Biol- ogy ll is more of a lab course than Biology I. They also attempt to learn about materials and life. Science ln Chemistry the emphasis is placed on understanding the basic concepts and principles on which the science of chem- istry is founded. Facts of chemistry are learned as they are needed rather than commit- ting unrelated information to memory. Chemistry is designed to develop a general understan- ding of the chemical principles. Chemistry deals with the chem- ical make-up of materials and with the changes they undergo when allowed to react with one another. Y I I 'Physics is a study of the present-day concepts of energy and the physical changes that matter undergoes. The four maior areas covered in this are: ill time, distance, and motion-the nature of measurement-atomic structure of matter, and mole- cules, 121 optics and waves, C31 mechanics, ancl C10 electricity and the structure of the atom. Emphasis is placed on the im- portant ideas and achievements that have come about in physics and the contributions ot these factors to progress in understan- ding the universe. it - V ' f if ii-- i .,,. fgflf, is V ' Physical Science is de- signed to meet the needs of three different groups of stu- dents. First: the student wish- ing to take chemistry andfor physics, second: the student who desires additional work in science, and third: the student who wants to satisfy the re- quirements of a science course at the high school level. Industrial Arts - Agriculture There are two categories into which indus- triaI arts fall. These are drafting and woodshop. In drafting, students develop ability to des- cribe the shape and size of obiects through drawing. Woodshop is a course in which boys can Iearn to use tools and woodworking equipment. The areas covered in agriculture I include livestock selection and care, crops and fertil- izers, gardening, and small fruits. The advanced students in agriculture I and II carry these studies further. y W, A Q -7 Y V Y Y Dick Sage demonstrates the use of farm machinery. Stucky, and Mr. Rice.

Work Experience There are three areas in which stu- dents may gain valuable work experience. One is office practice. Here students learn the procedures of tiling records, switchboard operation, and general proce- dure of student administration. Another area is library training, where students learn the process of cross filing and li- brary experience. The last of the three is the projection crew. Here two students are given the iob of taking different audio- visual equipment to various rooms. They deliver the equipment before school and bring it back before school ends. rt Plastering balloons help students design orna- ments of foreign countries. , Mrs. Burnendse inspects tile and painting dis- plays on bulletin board in art room. 84 X v Future artists working at painting and on tile work.

Coached by Gary Fisk and captained by Rod Kelty, the 'green team' won easy victories in most of their games. Only the two games with arch-rival Springfield and one with the Cottage Grove Lions proved much of an obstacle to their 17-0 record. One of the highlights of the season for the sophomores was an easy victory over highly touted South Eugene.

Aspires Toward Olympics As a different aspect in the Yeorling this year, a new feature has been added, honoring a faculty member, Thurston's track coach, Bill Dellinger. ln 1954, as a sophomore at the University of Oregon, he won the NCAA mile. After graduating in 1956, with a Bachelor of Science degree in Education, and a major in physical education, Mr. Dellinger joined the Air Force, and set a new Amer- ican Outdoor record for the 5000 metel' run to qualify for the Olympics in Australia. He qualified for the American team in a meet with Russia in 1958, where he tied in the 5000 meter run. On tour in Hungary, Poland, and Greece, he set another American record in the 1500 meter in Budapest, Hungary, and came in second in the 5000 meter run in Greece. Mr. Dellinger set the World indoor 2 mile record in Boston, and 3 mile record in Madison Square Garden. He finished first in the 5000 meter in the National AAU meet in Boulder, Colorado, and got his first gold medal for the 5000 meter in the Pan American Games in Chi- cago the same year. ln July of 1960, he qualified for the Rome Olympics in the 5000 meter run. Mr. Dellinger graduated from the University of Ore- gon with his Masters Degree in Education and he began teaching at Thurston High School in 1961, where he has been for the past three years. Last fall Mr. Dellinger began training to qualify for the 5000 meter run in the '64 Tokyo Olympics. His first competition will be the AAU meet on June 27, in Trenton, New Jersey. lf he places in the top six, he goes to the New York Worlds Fair on July 4, where he will have his first olympic tryout. Competition there will be six from the NCAA, six from the AAU, and one from the Military Services. Then on September 12, in Los Angeles, the 2nd Olympic tryout will be held. ln this tryout the first and second place winners will be on the team along with the runner chosen in the first tryout.
