Nineteen hundred and eighty-five produced a group of seniors who will never be forgotten. The seniors, as a whole and individually were very active this year in extra-curricular activities. They won the sign, skit, and spirit competition for Homecoming, and helped to win the Homecoming game. They added spirit to the pep assemblies and helped to promote spirit for the football and basketball teams to succeed. Yesterday seems long ago as seniors prepare to embark on the future. A promise of new hopes and new dreams awaits the graduates. Tomorrow becomes today for the graduating class of 1985. It was the experience they gained and the lessons they learned on the way up, that made all the difference in the outcome of their year, and is sure to have an impact on all the years to come. Seniars leave the familiarity of the old for the excitement of the new. 1.

Seniors 13 Juniors Bubbling To The Top The Junior class proved to be better than ever this year. They were a dedicated class and stuck together throughout the year. They were very active during the school year and worked well with their advisors. The class provided many different fund raising projects such as Junior Slave Day, Homecoming Dance, and Junior-Senior Prom. The Powder Puff football game turned out to be a bigger than ever success and brought lots of money to the class. The Juniors also took a big part in the canned food drive that was put on by Vernonia Cares. Homecoming week was another major part during the year. The class showed lots of spirit by placing 1st in overall competition. They worked hard on the other activities and placed 2nd in sign and 3rd in skit, hall, and spirit. 1.

They showed their spirit and ability to work together during homecoming week by tying for third place on sign, taking second in both skit and spirit, then topping it off with a first in hall. They held many fund raisers, which included selling baked potatoes at a football game, going woodcutting, and sponsering some miscellaneous dances. It was decided that they would use part of the proceeds to have a memorial put up at the Washington Grade School in memory of Lisa Fletcher, a fellow classmate that was killed in a car accident. The class was an inspiration to all and they showed that they have many talents to offer VHS. 1. CLASS OFFICERS: President, Noelle Aultman; Secretary Treasurer. Angie Ceballos; Class Representative.

There are five required classes for the freshmen: Commi-cation Arts, World Geography, General Science, Math, and P.E. Typing 1 was a very popular elective for the freshmen. Many of the freshmen participated in sports during the year. The student body worked well together as a class. Because of this ability to do so, they did pretty good with their money makers. These consisted of a few dances and some wood cutting. All this combined to make the 1984-1985 school year a great one for the class of 88’. 1. CLASS OFFICERS: Vice-president.

The faculty helped the students in the can food drive. This was a success, thanks to the staff supporting the students, and helping them by bringing in cans of food. The food went to the organization, “Vernonia Cares.” This year our school received three new teachers, and one new counselor. The three new teachers were Steve Whiteman, Chuck Nichols, and Billie Wallace. The new counselor was Bob Allord. Steve Whiteman, from Ignacio Colorado, teaches Math. Bob Allord, our new counselor, came from Warner Pacific College. Chuck Nichols came from Beaverton Middle School. He teaches Science and Computer Litaracy. Billie Wallace comes to our school from Clatskanie to teach Home Economics and Bachelor Survival Skills. Pictured to the right are: Principal, Randall Aultman; and Vice Principal, Gordon Crowston.

Even when things were not going just right they kept their spirits up and went on fighting. Spirits were especially high during homecoming when the players were real “Cardinal Busters.” The team was jubilant over their 13 to 0 win. The team will be losing 9 members. The graduating Seniors are Sig Mitchell, Kyle Spivey, Rick Grady, Frank Steele, Francois Granier, Larry O'Black, Tony Shirley, Benny Cutright, and Jodi Riley. With only three starters from the previous season returning to their regular positions, the team had a lot of holes to fill with relatively inexperienced players. Also the team was pla-qued with injuries throughout the season. The players did an outstanding job of overcoming these problems and learning a lot about football. Coach Terry Nimz commented, “I feel that this was a very rewarding year, and the team worked well together as a unit.” 2 24 Varsity Football 3 Varsity Football Scores US THEM Nestucca 10 Wiltamina 7 12 Knappa 8 16 P.C. 30 21 Neah-Kah-Nie 0 27 Sheridan 8 13 Lutheran 20 6 Corbett 13 0 Warrenton 6 21 4 7 1.

Football Learns Their Kraft The J.V. team showed a lot of team spirit, and even though they didn’t have a good season this year they showed improvement. As coach Steve Whiteman commented, We started the season with inexperienced players, Freshmen who hadn't played before, and a few Sophomores with just a small amount of experience. By the end of the season the kids were hitters and team players. Our early losses were primarily due to the fact that there is no junior-high program and therefore no Freshmen background. The improvement in the latter games was due to the type of kids in this community; tough, persistent, and aggressive.” The J.V. Logger team is improving and they should be a tough team next year. All the hard work and team spirit payed off in making them a team we will all be proud of. 3 26 J.V. Football 8 1. Matt Paris is on a sweep. 2. Robert Shafer in the open. 3.

Football 27 Cross Country “Rip Up The Roads ” The Vernonia cross-country team had a very successful season this year. According to coach Melvin Nice, this was a direct result of dedication and a lot of hard work. The season concluded with the boys finishing fifth and the girls seventh in state competition. This was the sixth straight year the girls have finished in the top ten at state. The girls had a tremendous day at the district meet in which they qualified for state. They were determined and worked hard. They were the second qualifying team from our district and brought home the second place trophy. The boys team had an undefeated season. They won four different trophies. They were champions at Wahtonka Invit., Vernonia Invit., and Northwest League Champs. They also placed first at district which qualified them for state. The cross country team hopes to have as good a turn out next year as they did this year. Coach Melvin Nice says, that with all but one boy and two girls returning, next year should result in more trophies. i 4 28 Cross Country Kennedy Vernonia Wahtonka Columbia Christ.

Cross Country 29 Varsity Volleyball Serves To Win The Girl’s Volleyball team had a tough road to follow this year with a lot of good competition in their league. Despite the fact that they had only seven girls on their team, they still gave it their all, and were able to achieve their team goal of making it to the play-offs. Next year, anticipates Coach Petti-john, We will not only make it to the play-offs, but we’ll bring home a new addition for our trophy case!’’ These girls had their share of ups and downs and remember only those Highs’’ that made it all worthwhile. All the girls can be proud of their efforts this season. On the Varsity squad, there were two seniors who will be missed very much by their teammates; The Captain, Lisa Brewer, and Elizabeth Fletcher. 30 Varsity Volleyball 1.

Though they didn't have a good win-loss record, they really showed their skills on the playing floor. Many of the J.V. girls have shown that they are really striving to improve their game. Although age and skill levels vary, they possess good team comradery. “I feel that these girls show great potential for next years varsity squad,” comments Coach Marsha King. Starting player Alysia Skinner says, I think it was a good learning year for all of us, we got down the basic skills we will need for future years. We also had a lot of freshmen on our team, and they did really good. I think we will have a strong, competitive team next year.” 2 32 J.V Volleyball m¥ 7 1. Once again Kelly saves the day. 2.

Volleyball 33 Homecoming 84 Loggers Squash Cardinals As this year's Homecoming competition came to an end. with Juniors taking first and Seniors running a close second, the spirit in V.H.S. was high. The week started out with Uniform day, followed by Semi-Formal day, Movie Character day, Culture Foreign day and the traditional Blue and Gold day. Continuing with the new twist added last year, the Juniors sponsored the muddy-but-challenging Powderpuff Football game. The coaches for the Senior Freshman team were Benny Cutright, Rick Grady, Sig Mitchel, Tony Shirley, and Levi Whiteman. The coaches for the winning Junior Sopho-more team were Troy Ceballos, Thad Bodenhamer, Joe Hult, and Avery Shirley. Coronation was a night to remember for almost everyone. Victory was great for some, but not for all, with the Seniors taking first in skit, sign, and spirit; and the Sophomores first in hall. The night was highlighted when Rhonda Roberts and Benny Cutright were crowned Queen and King. The court consisted of Princess Andrea Walker, escorted by Prince Shaun Knowlton, and Princess Elizabeth Fletcher, escorted by Prince Sig Mitchel. Homecoming was completed with a smashing kangaroo court with Judge Nelson presiding. The Guardian Angels were revealed with enthusiasm from everyone. The activities drew to a close Friday night with the big win over the Corbett Cardinals. The final score was 13 to 0. 2 34 Homecoming 8 1 Homecoming Queen Rhonda Roberts and King Benny Outright. 2. 1984 Homecoming Court: Prince Sig Mitchell and Princess Elizabeth Fletcher.

The senior dominated loggers played well on occasions, but lacked consistency in losing several points. The varsity basketball team was coached by some real neat people; Coach Bill Howard and Assistant Coach Gordon Crowston. Coach Howard commented, The Loggers played a real tough travel and game schedule during the later part of the season, but made it through the season pretty well. There will be many seniors missed on next year's basketball team, including, Sig Mitchell, Tony Shirley, Kyle Spivey, Larry O'Black, and Don Rainbolt. The team was very close to going to playoffs, but as many people say, Vernonia Varsity Basketball Team was not meant to go. 38 Varsity Basketball 5 6 y Varsity Basketball Scores US THEM Scappoose 62 58 Catlin Gabel 72 57 P.C. 62 74 Scappoose 49 70 Lutheran 56 53 Warrenton 45 42 OES 63 59 Neah-Kah-Nie 60 53 Corbett 44 65 Columbia Christian 49 57 Catlin Gabel 43 46 P.C. 47 59 Knappa 52 58 OES 52 46 Warrenton 39 48 Neah-Kah-Nie 70 63 Corbett 54 75 Lutheran 53 60 Columbia Christian 42 45 Knappa 50 62 1.

C-Team Rolling To The Top The 1984-1985 J.V. Basketball team was young and inexperienced; however, they developed into a very competitive group of players. The J.V. team had a total of 12 wins and 8 losses during their season. League wise they had a total of 12 and 6. The team was coached by Mr. Gordon Crowston. Coach Gordon Crowston commented, “This was a very good group of young men to work with and most of them will play big parts in future basketball seasons. C-Team for the year of 1984-85 was a good competitive team, even though they were inexperienced players at the beginning of the season. The team consisted of mostly freshmen, and a few sophomores, which made the team a pretty equal balance for the players. The C-Team was coached by Mr. Rueben Gonzales, who taught the team many new plays and a few new strategies. 0 1 3 40 J.V. C-Team 1. Raymond Cota attempts to block an opposing team. 2.

Lady Loggers Saut’e Their Rivals The girls’ team had an inspiring season this year. They had a lot of spirit, and by working together as a team, they were tough to beat. By the end of the season, the girls had racked up eighteen wins and only three losses. Coach Steve Whiteman said, “We introduced an attacking defense to these young players and it was just made for these girls. The team was physical, intense, and coachable. Many games were lopsided because our team was so deep in players that the second team just kept on scoring.” The team was made up of one junior, three sophomores, and eight freshmen. The Lady Loggers should be an outstanding team next year. 42 Girls Basketball 7 i 8 1. Wendy Parrow. Mila Spivey. Stefanie DeLaittre.

Both have coached the wrestling team in previous years and knew what they needed to have a winning season. They had to keep team spirits up through the good times and the bad times too. They accomplished many things during the season. District for the wrestlers was an exciting event. The night before was filled with encouragement, hope, and willingness from each and every team member. There were no District champions, but there were three wrestlers that qualified for State. They were Benny Cutright, Rick Hood, and Michael Shaffer. The three that went on to the State match did their best to prove they were glad to have made it that far with the support of their coaches and each and every team member. Of these three team members, Senior Benny Cutright and Junior Rick Hood placed with in the top six with plenty of competition from other wrestlers. b CT iO vw 1 4 44 Wrestling 8 1.

Their season consisted of football, basketball, wrestling, and girls basketball. During the year the girls performed three dances, “Freestyle Express , “Hello Again”, and “Jungle Love . They also put on several pep assemblies to promote spirit and get everyone fired up. The Varsity squad sold tumblers during the summer to raise money to pay for camp, which was held at Western Oregon State College. The camp lasted for four days and three nights. All of the girls enjoyed themselves at camp. The Varsity squad also competed at State Competition on April 6 in Springfield. The cheerleader advisor, Mrs. Nancy Dailey, states, “The 1984-85 cheerleaders were full of spirit and unique girls to work with. I'm very proud of the job they have done.” 2 3 46 Cheerleaders 4 I.

Both performed in the Christmas program, Popcorn concert, and Spring concert. They were small groups, but it did not prevent them from sounding good throughout the year. Performing in a Mass Band Festival was the highlight of the year for the band. Tony Dettmers was selected to be in the honor band. It was a good experience for the band to perform in a large group. They also played at most of the football and basketball games and at graduation. The Chorus performed at the Thanksgiving assembly. The Band will only be losing two seniors this year and the Chorus will be losing five seniors. 50 Band Chorus 7 9 1. Deanna Cahill concentrates on her singing. 2.

The Memolog staff worked hard all year to produce a 96 page yearbook that Vernonia High could be proud of. Doing layouts and selling ads were the first concerns of the six member staff. Yearbook class was offered third period with Mr. Ron Remsen as the advisor. Although it was given credit as a class and grades were received, there wasn’t a feeling of being just another class. Mr. Ward Nelson was the advisor to the Timberline staff. The staff did an excellent job this year making the best newspaper a journalist could hope for. There was a press conference held at the University of Oregon during the fall and the staff was lucky enough to attend. With much hard work and a little snooping the class put out a Timberline every three weeks with a total of ten issues throughout the year. 52 Yearbook Journalism 1.

Yearbook Journalism 53 t Language And Special Education Strive With Zest English can never be fun, and you’re right- it wasn’t. But, we had some teachers who really showed their stuff. Junior and Senior English was taught by Mrs. Sevig, and Freshman and Sophomore English was taught by Ms. O’Neil. Courses within the curriculum include, Adolescent Literature, American Literature, English Literature. Novel, and Honors English. Ms. Engel taught French 1 through 4. French classes were for students who wanted to take an active interest in a language and some of its cultural background. It required regular and careful study out of class. This years Speech class consisted of five seniors, two juniors, and one sophomore. The special education department was a part of the curriculum that was sometimes overlooked, but was an important part of the classes at V.H.S. Ms. Linda Greyfellows, assisted by Mrs. Grady were very patient in teaching the fundamentals of reading, language arts, and mathematics to students in need of work in these areas.

This is a required class for Freshmen. Mr. Calhoun teaches them about customs of other countries and political issues of today. The class experiences an annual Mexican Fiesta, held at the end of each spring. Mr. Ron Svenson for his fourth year at V.H.S., teaches Modern Problems, American Government. and U.S. History. Modern Problems and Government are classes required for Seniors. The Modern Problems class taught students how to understand and deal with everyday happenings. The American Government classes learned how decisions are made, and the structure of our Government. The U.S. History class learned about things and events from the Revolution to the present time. In the Science category at V.H.S., there were classes like Biology, Chemistry, Science and Computer Literacy. Biology was offered three times a day, and was taught by Mr. Melvin Nice. The majority of students that took this class were Sophomores. They learned about the human anatomy and plant body. They also learned how to disect fetal pigs. Chemistry was taught this year by one of our new teachers Mr. Steve Whiteman. Chemistry was only offered one period this year and only upperclassmen took this class. Mr. Chuck Nichols, another one of our new teachers, taught general science and computer literacy. The general science classes took a couple of field trips. One trip was to the beach, and the second was to a science fair. 56 Social Studies Science 8 7 1. Global Study students give their report to the class. 2.

Business A Mixture Of Skills Again this year Business classes were one of the popular vocational courses offered at V.H.S. There were about 50 students enrolled in Typing I, which had a mixture of students from all grade levels, but about 85% of the classes were made up of freshmen. Business Lab offered classes like: Office Procedures, Business Law. Marketing, Business Management, Accounting, and Amateur Radio. Twenty students were active in these courses during the Lab. Mr. Ron Remsen, Business teacher, has been teaching at V.H.S. for the past ten years. Personal Finance is another class that involves students in activities that will be helpful in later life. This class, taught by Steve Calhoun, learns the basics of budgeting, financing, consumer buying, and insurance policies. Students were also involved in one of the bigger activities of the year, filling out tax forms. This class also went on field trips, along with having many guest speakers from different occupations. The majority of field trips were to colleges so that students could get an idea of what colleges offer what classes, and to see what college they wanted to go to. l 58 Per. Fin. Business 6 7 1.

Health A New Recipe This year there were some noted changes in the VHS math classes. Instead of taking Algebra I, Geometry, and then Algebra II. it was decided that students would take Algebra I, Algebra II, and then continue on to Geometry. Mr. Steve Whiteman and Mr. Chuck Nichols joined the teaching staff this year. Mr. Whiteman taught Algebra I and II, Advanced Math and the Chemistry course. Mr. Nichols taught the Pre-Algebra class and various science courses. Mr. Gordon Crowston taught the Competitive Sports class as well as General Math. Most of the Boys P.E. classes were taught by Mr. Melvin Nice. Girls P.E., Aerobics, and Health were taught by Mrs. Marsha King. She said that she would like to have more boys participate in the Aerobic class. The Health class participated in the Blood Drive and helped in the Health Van, among other activities. 60 Math P E.

There were six different areas in which the classes worked. These were drafting, plastics, crafts, woodworking, sheet metals, and welding. Woodworking was the most popular of these areas. Occupational Versatility was taught by Mr. Mark Petti-john and Mr. Terry Nimz. Both enjoyed teaching the students in this class very much. Students in the Photography class did a fair amount of work too. They learned the techniques of using the camera. and how to develop their own film. The photo class went on a field trip during the semester. They went to the Zoo-Omsi center where they took pictures of many interesting animals. To finish off their field trip, they went to the exciting Japanese Gardens where they took pictures of many nature things. Although photography is only offered as a semester course, it's an enjoyable class by all who have participated. Photography is taught by Mr. Doug Tesdal who enjoys teaching the skills of how to use the camera. t 3 62 OV Photo 8 1. Furl McMillen sands on his gun to smooth out all the roughness. 2.

The drama 2 class performed “Our Town,” directed by Kathy Sevig, produced by Colleen O'Neil. The whole school combined and performed “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. The performances were May 10, 11, 17. The leading roles. Milly performed by Elizabeth Fletcher, and Adam, performed by Rick Grady, were executed with outstanding professionalism. There were also many other talents involved that made the play the success it was. Each performance drew crowds from far and near that filled the Vernonia High School gymnasium. In appreciation of the actors outstanding ability to entertain, the audiences gave each performance a standing ovation. The play was directed by Mrs. Sevig, and produced by Ms. O’Neil. The choreographer, brought in from Banks High School, Was Evan Chang. The music instructor was Ward Nelson. Due to the unity of these people. “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers was a great success that will be remembered for years to come. 4 64 Drama 5 7 1. Annie and Chris can’t believe their eyes. 2.

There was a bachelor survival class for the guys also. A lot of the guys turned out for the class and learned a lot about sewing and cooking. Zeke Miyasaki was the guest speaker who demonstrated how to butcher a deer. Everyone took real well to Mrs. Wallace and enjoyed having Home Ec back in their schedules this year. The Art classes were once again taught by Mr. Doug Tes-dal. They did some silkscreening, etching, sketches, and paintings. Mr. Tesdal took his advanced art class to the Japanese Gardens and to the Zoo. All of the art classes displayed their work in the window of Dr. Selvaggi’s office. The advanced art class learned how to do stained glass and the art 1 class did some sculpturing. 3 66 HomeEc Art 9 1. Zeke Miyasaki demonstrates how to butcher a deer. 2.

The roster included over 30 students, with some taking part in the school play, which were only able to participate early in the season. Stefanie DeLaittre broke the school record in the 3000 on three separate occasions. Her best time was 11:46. Chuck Abbott ran a 52.2 relay split at state which was better than the 400 school record. The 1600 meter relay team ran 3:33 at state; just 4 seconds off the school record, while Jared Nice clocked a fast 9:34 in the 3000 at district. Bob Gallagher, 800 and 1500, gathered up the most points this year for the most outstanding award, while Butch Shafer improved his javelin throw over 30 feet for the most improved award.

Practices were held three days a week and the team ended up with a split season of 4 wins and 4 losses. This years golf team did not quite make it to state but they worked for it at District. There were a few members that were new to the team this year, but they all had great potential as golfers. Everyone worked hard throughout the season and they built confidence among themselves to get through the rough times and the bad weather.

She served in the capacity of secretary for ten years. Peggy is highly efficient at typing, bookkeeping and general office procedures; but more importantly, her caring and loving nature positively affected the lives of all those who came into contact with her. She is so unselfish and kind; she continually thinks of others and not herself. Many people pass through life and their story goes untold because they touch no one. This cannot be said about Peggy. Her story is told by countless faculty members, students, and townspeople who love her for just being our “Peg.” Thank you, Peggy, for having travelled our way. Our world is much brighter because of you. WE ALL LOVE YOU VERY MUCH! Peggy 75 Do You Remember King Benny and Queen Rhonda. n U Kangaroo Court. The very vocal teacher.

The never stopping work The 1985 Spring Prom Add Zest The mood was right, the atmosphere was Manhattan Heights, the occasion was the traditional Spring Prom. The scenery was enchanting, taking everyone from Vernonia into the city. The mistress of ceremonies was Jennifer Denckla, who introduced each princess and her escort: Annie Walker, escorted by Dale Walker; Elizabeth Fletcher, escorted by Curt Marxer; Lisa Brewer, escorted by Sig Mitchell. Each princess was given a beautiful bouquet; filled with red roses, pink roses, and white carnations. Lisa Brewer was crowned at 10:30 p.m. as the queen of the Prom. When the evening of May 4, 1985 ended, everyone had in their hearts memories to keep for the many years to come. 78 6 1. Queen Lisa and escort. Sig Mitchell, enjoy a slow dance after the crowning. 2.
