Retrospect: The Lighter Side of ' 83 Tigard High is sometimes said to be passive at sports events when compared to yelling, screaming rivals. Or, it is claimed, there might not seem to be one ruling group in the school that sets the pace and attitude of the year. To one critical eye or another, students at THS might appear to be a conglomeration of individuals that just don ' t care. Such suppositions were false indeed. How many other schools could boast of an orator with second-in-the-nation status; of sending a band to the Grand Floral Parade; of winning the high school drags; and of sending as many teams and athletes to state competition? The diversity of Tigard students goes on and on. There were many groups that held their own sense of achievement and pride while at the same time fitting into one or more subculture at THS. Our high school is not cliquish, commented Principal Jim McElroy. Kids are accepted for what they are. They travel in many different circles and they ' re not snobbish. So here ' s a collection of Tigers doing what they did best as groups and individuals — everything. STUDENT GOVERNMENT LEADERS Brett Dennis and Lynne Walt discuss plans tor an upcoming meeting. Dennis was president of the senior class and Watt was student body president second semester.

The dress-up davs saw anything from tourists prepared with shades, suntan lotion and maps to Flower Children that were reminiscent of the Hippies ' of the 1960 ' s. Tuesday experienced the ' ogue in thermal undenvear and waders as belching beauties emerged to compete in the Luanna Beasley fashion show. Such popular themes of contestants were Springtime in a Moldv Blueberry Patch, Luanna in the Garden and Luanna Goes S M, which received a standing ovation from fifth lunch x ' iewers. To top it all off (or bottom it all in) came Saturday, the day of THSs first MORP, a backwards prom. Morp-goers arrived at 8:00 a.m. in jammies or weekend grubbies to get morning exercise and nibble on donuts and sip orange juice. Although participation was not as enthusiastic as expected, for some the week was the most unforgettable event of the year.
