S tu d e n t Locked In A student, who we won’t name, was recently locked inside the clinic one Friday evening for 416 hours. When he went to the clinic Friday evening the back door was open so he went in. He says, “ I went looking for some one to help me and when I went to go out the door again, it was locked.” He started yelling, but nobody was around. “ I didn’t know how to use the telephone (it’s an extension) and the fire alarm wouldn’t work. None of the windows would break.” After he got tired, he went to take a short nap. He said, ‘‘I woke up about 7:30 p. m., and started yelling at people walking by, but every time I started yelling at someone, a train would go by . . . ” Finally someone heard him and let him out. Kathy Andrews and Arthur Ambrose both finished in the Top Ten at the Chemawa Inviatation Meet. Both w ill be back again next year for another season. R u n n e r s T a k e D i s t r i c t F o r F i f t h S t r a i g h t Year The Varsity Cross-Country Team won the District Championship for the fifth straight year. Chemawa has not lost a Capital Conference dual meet in more than five years. The Braves are currently ranked as the third best AA team in the state, behind defending champion Madras and Scapoose. Del Okbaok, Jacob Merculief, and Art Ambrose became the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Chemawa runners to break 13 minutes on the 216-mile home course. Leonard Huntington still holds the record of 12:25, which he set in 1969. “ At the beginning of the year,” Coach Kugie Louis said, “ it was doubtful this team would be as strong as the teams in the past, but surpris ingly they have developed into the most outstanding team in the history of our school.” The Varsity runners and their times recorded at the Cascade meet, (the last home meet of the year) are: Jacob Merculief - 12:50 Del Okbaok - 12:51 Arthur Ambrose - 12:58 Harold Huntington - 13:16 Harold Fairbanks - 13:27 David Enoch - 13:45 Mike George - 13:54 Harold Fairbanks is the only Senior. Joe Peters, a Junior, was added to the team for the State meet. Okbaok, Am brose, Huntington, Fairbanks, and Peters are veterans of last year’s District Champion team which finished second in the State Meet behind Mad ras. Coach Louis predicted that the Braves will finish in the Top Three at State again this year and probably will take the state title in 1972. The following boys ran for the Jun ior Varsity team: Adolph Lupie, Ray Koonuk, Robert Lake, Herman Evan, Henry Alexie, James Soloman, and Eddie Biederman. There was no Jun ior Varsity District Championship, but the Brave’s JV’s never lost a dual meet.
