Football '16 _. . 3rd in State The Warrior's winning season was highlighted by capturing the League Championship for the first time in the history of Warrenton High School. The brutal practices started two weeks before school, with Coach Mattila's famous Daily Doubles which led the warriors to victory. The season's opening game with Jefferson started the warrior's winning streak. A mid-season game with Knappa brought a close call as the warriors squeaked by with a score of 7-6. The homecoming game with St. Paul proved to be a heartbreaker as the warriors were defeated 14-22. By defeating the Gaston Greyhounds the warriors assured themselves of a chance to compete in the State Playoffs. A crowded spectator bus along with many boosters followed the team to Harrisburg where the warriors would compete in the State Quarter-Finals. The warriors hosted Regis as they battled to determine who would go to the State-Finals. The warriors looked strong until there was a turn-around in the last six minutes of the game. Regis scored, placing them within one point of the warriors. Regis then scored twice more as they raised the score and carried away the victory. Coach Feletar, along with fresh- man and J.V. players wait patiently for their bus. The highlight of the JV football season was a fourth-quarter comeback when the Warriors edged passed the Neah-Kah-Nie Pirates to a 14-12 victory. Another score in the win column came from Tillamook, Daily Doubles with the varsity started the pre-season practices. Jon Bergerson earned most valuable player recognition from the coaches for both offense and defense. Most improved player Robert Killion helped the team. Scoring for the 7 game season showed close results but not necessarily in the Warrior's favor. The JV's ended their season with a win- loss record of 2 wins and 5 losses.

The week of October 18-23 was surely an unfor- gettable on for all the students at W.H.S. It was Homecoming 1976. Monday morning started with the coronation of Queen Nancy Johnsen. Hall decorating began after the students quenched their hunger at a potluck lunch. Naturally, hostility arose as spies from each class made their rounds through the other halls to see what was going on or to get ideas. Since the theme was Up, Up, and Away , the seniors (ABOVE LEFT) saw fit to string balloons and streamers throughout their hall; the juniors (BELOW LEFT) worked diligently on a Toyshop; the sophomores (ABOVE RIGHT) simply enjoyed the afternoon constructing a stairway to the stars; and the freshmen (BELOW RIGHT) turned their hall into a football field after the committee whipped up some plans. Off and on during Monday afternoon the classes rehearsed their unusual and unique skits which were performed Tuesday evening after the rally. Homecoming 1976 Thursday night the majority of the students joined the car serpentine during which each class decorated a truck ina fashion fit for this year's theme. Following the serpentine was the bonfire (BELOW LEFT), an event at which the classes were judged for spirit and creativity. The seniors (BELOW RIGHT) suggested they deserved the trophy by waving signs and releasing helium balloons to the sky, Unfortunately, it wasn't Up, Up, and Away toa victory for the football players as the scoreclock (BELOW AND LEFT) reveals. 30 Bittersweet Jam Glenn Grafton and his two lookalike dates (ABOVE LEFT) Kara McDonald and Janet Bransford entertained many of the other couples at the Homecoming Dance, once it got started that is.

Chaperones and students (LEFT) enjoyed listening to the music as well as dancing to it. All in all, the dance was termed a success.

The first major chore was Homecoming and that went successfully in spite of the problems with changing the court. There was a lull, then they decided to pep the kids up with a $50 contest. After that, student council went right to work revising the student constitution and worked on Student Body elections. Student council also hosted the district meeting and various speakers. Student Council members pay close atten- tion to what every speaker has to say. Student Council also helped by watching the voting and the ballot box at this year's elections for the new Officers and constitution revisions. 41 League Student Council Day This year, the league Student Council meeting was held at Warrenton. Schools from our league, such as Knappa, Corbett, Portland Christian, and Lutheran, joined our student council for the meeting. They talked about our different problems, fund raising, and how to solve these prob- lems. They were then taken of a tour of the school and some of the classes going on. All in all, it went smoothly and everyone learned some- thing that might be helpful in the future.

It was suggested that they sponsor a week of competition between the classes and reward the winning class with $50. All the classes set out to win but the seniors came out victorious. Cheri Horton, Kim Adams, Annette Birkholz, and Carey Schnebly appear as 4 Musketeers. There were 7 big events during the week including one mystery contest.

The team had an 11-5 season this year. They had many high-scoring victories, like Portland Christian. Pre-season traveling challenges of eastern Oregon, put Warrenton in the spot light, but mid-season injuries influenced the season's outcome. 70 Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Knappa Portland Christian Lutheran Corbett Portland Christian Lutheran Knappa Corbett 00 Ol 06 02 02 00 00 00 Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton Warrenton 01 10 04 02 03 09 02 09 Knappa Portland Christian Lutheran Corbett Portland Christian Lutheran Knappa Corbett 08 01 06 05 Ol 00 03 00 Track and Field Competitors In spite of a rainy season and limited membership, the boys track team participated in the Naselle invitational and Mt.

They also had several student directed plays later in the year. A new drama teacher was added to the staff this year who brought in many new ideas, They changed the stage lighting, did their own sound effects, had most of their classes on the stage, and had a shadow play visit our school. Once again, the drama class went to Ashland. They also invited other students to join them. They went to all the plays and attended a workshop with two of the actors there. 7D 76 If you remember last winter, you were asked to register so that you could vote in the spring Student Body elections.

Spring Is There was a full house this year at the Girl's League an- nual Mother-daughter Tea. The evening started with The Way We Were sung as a duet by seniors Cheryl Seganos and Tina Wilhelm. Mrs. Rupp pro- vided pleasant backgound music for the remainder of the pro- gram. Of course we can't for- get the fashion show. It was delayed for several minutes due to the temporary abscence of Jennifer Carruthers, one of the commentators. The other fashion commentator was Vicki Beatty. While the crowd of Mothers, daughters, and faculty waited patiently the girls who were to model were running around Miss Iff's room franti- cally making sure every last hair was in place. ABOVE: 1976-1977 Girl's League President Joanne Fortelney poses with 1976-1977 Girl of the Year Sherry Johnson. Miss Johnson was Miss November- Miss Dependability but also has the qualities of the other girls of the month: poise, leadership, talent, scholarship, congeniality, “school spirit, sports- manship, and service. Joanne put many hours into working on Girl's League activities and proved her- self as being a very worthy Presi- dent. Many weeks of preparation went into the Mother-daughter Tea. A few of the girls designed and hand- crafted invitations for the faculty and Senior boys' Mothers. Also the girls designed and made the pro- grams. Rounding up stores for the girls to model from was a chore and a half which was taken on by seniors Jennifer Johnson and Alice Hochnadel. It was worth the trouble though.

Class competition appeared in the form of boy cheerleaders, and staff members presented a skit. 81 82 The class of '78 completed a full year of activities and classes. The Junior class sponsored the most dances and held cake raffles at several basketball games. They had a baked-foods sale during the lunch hours and increased the class treasury. The class of '78 was sec- ond in the home coming activities for the second year in a row. The Juniors had a wide selection of classes this year, plus the four electives: Personal Finance, Health, US History, and an English class.
