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.
