1973-1974 UNION HIGH SCHOOL Union, Oregon Our schools, if they do their work, strengthen our deliberate and deliberative selves. Between the impression and the conviction, between the impulse and the action, we learn to pause and consider. — Joseph Tussman a year of learning, of doing, of being, of sharing, of discovering— a good year— SECRETARY Marlene Turner DISTRICT CLERK Linda Brookshire Our thanks to school board members - for all their effort and help in our behalf: Wilbur Smith, Chairman, Bill Cooper, Sherman Hawkins, Mace Schram and Dale Beverage. Pictured is Mr. Beverage who is retiring from the board after several years. He has always been a great school supporter and will be missed in this official capacity. 5 ANN CLEMENS Library HOPE FAHSHOLTZ Language Arts KEN HENRY Industrial Arts If we could somehow find a teacher who had Mrs. Moffit's sophistication, Mrs. Woodell’s dedication, Mrs. Clemen's knowledge. Miss Klugh's moralistic nature, Mr. Barr's vitality, Mrs. Barr's listening ability, Mr. Stanford's discipline, Mr. Phillip's patience, Mr. Henry's voice, Mr. Jones' humor, Mrs. Stanford's vocabulary, Mr. Woods' originality, Mrs. Fahsholtz's understanding, Miss Moss's taste for clothes, Mr. Wunder's laugh, Mr. Stewart's interest, and Mr. Baker's self-confidence, we just possibly could have a perfect teacher. —Bay Lynx Staff LINDA MOSS Art BrLL PHILLIPS Mathematics E VERE TT STANFORD Auto Mechanics HELEN STANFORD Language Arts Homemaking «• DON STEWART MYRNA WOODELL Agriculture Spanish STE VE WOODS RAY WUNDE R Social Studies Music They are on the job everyday.
