PUBLICATION CLASS
At exactly 7:00 p.m. Monday
through Thursday, dorm doors
fly open and out pour students,
basketballs, ghetto boxes, and
hacky sacks just itching to get out
and enjoy an evening on Che-
: mawa’s campus.
The court area and the recre
ation center seem to be the most
popular places for the students to
spend their leisure time, with the
gymnasium and CAEC coming m
second.
,e
Mike YellowRobe and Jennifer
Timmons can usually be found in
the rec center playing pool, and if
you’ll focus your eyes over to the
Cruising to tne courts, you’re
bound to see our president,
Monte Munyan, kicking a hacky
sack and shooting for a new high
score. Frequently Monte has to
duck quickly to escape one of
Lonnie James’ sometimes "not
so great" football passes to Pat
rick Billie. When Munyan for
gets to duck he often intercepts
these super bowl passes with his
head.
Looking down into the courts
you’ll find Jackie Andrews and
Arthur Smartlowit both playing
with their own teams, snapping
the ball into the hoop for another
two points.
Mike and Monte show us that to run Student Council you have to be a
little “Off-the-Wall.”_______________________
If Guy Ford isn’t playing ping
pong, it’s a sure bet you’ll see
him and Les Costel in the weight
room, trying to improve their al
ready muscular physiques. Both
of these men are doing well and
looking good.
Ben Jojola and honey JoAnne
Lane are spectators who just
walk around and visit with every
body. This is sometimes hard for
them to do so, especially when
Raymond Cagey’s within two
miles with his portable ghetto
box, jammin out with Leo
Edwards and Michael Jackson.
arcade, you’ll most likely see
Santos Windells trying to get a
new world’s record on one of his
favorite video games. Guy Ford
and Brian "Butter" Bill are the
ping pong players of CIS and are
often seen challenging people to
a "quick merciless game."
Wade Hidalgo and Robin
Marsh rule the foos-ball tables,
while Tony LeBeau is king of the
air hockey table. In a small little
corner of all this commotion,
you’ll find Byron Lee really try
ing hard to concentrate on a
tough game of chess.
Out of the. rec area you’ll see
(and hear) Leon Enick and his
gang war hooping about and
screaming the Cnemawa yell.
They say it increases the circula
tion, but the matrons don’t al
ways agree.
Right about now, the aroma of
apple pie should be filling the
air. If you follow the scent, you’ll
come to find Edward George
happily filling the orders of many
Chemawa students as they place
their orders for evening mun
chies up in the PPS building.
If you were to take a quick
glimpse into Unit 9, you’d prob
ably catch Leoda Yallup streat-.
ched out on the couch watching
T.y. If she’s not there, you’ll
find her with the other cheer
leaders next to unit 10, practic
ing hard making up new cheeers
for the football players.
At the gymnasium, it’s a sure
thing that you’ll find Myron
BoneShirt, Anthony Ozenna and
their teams getting down on a
serious full court game of 5 on 5,
or 6 on 6.
Due to an increase of shop
lifting incidents at Freys’ Thrift-
way, Mr. Ed John, academic vice
principal, placed the supermar
ket temporarily off limits to
students.
Mr. John said many small
items were stolen by several
students, put pointed out the
majority of students are honest
and obey the rules.
Students who shoplift not only
break local and state laws, but
give themselves and the school a
bad name, said Mr. John. They
are written up, given a large
number of demerits, and placed
on final probation. One student
already faces Review Board for
his shoplifting crimes this
quarter.
Mr. John said students who
shoplift usually do it because
they think it’s cool, or are dared
into trying it. Mr. John said that
he doesn’t want to punish the en
tire school. At the sarpe time, in
order to reduce such incidents he
feels he must show those few
that he and the store owner view
these violations as serious
matters. If incidents continue at
Frey’s K-Mart, or any store the
stores will be off limits for longer
periods than the current two
weeks. When the sh o p p in g
stops students will once again be
allowed to shop at Frey’s Thrift-
way.
Said one student, “ A few al
ways try and make it bad for
everyone.”

When I go home
to the West Coast
to Oregon...
And some time
in the Fall,
< during the evening;; ,
I will stand and turn to this direction.
I will look to the east,
and to the so u th e r 'nd thesouth.
I will look
with the eyes of the Spirit,
As I stand...
there in the West.
Deadlines
I will Listen;
and my ears will hear:
The anguished whimper
of some young person,
grow...
•
into cries of happiness and joy.
-By Jeanine Wright
New to the curriculum is Pub
lications, taught by Ms. LaCroix
sixth and seventh hour. There
are forty students in the class.
Publications is both journalism
and yearbook combined.
On October 6, the reporters
went to the University of Oregon
in Eugene for a press conference.
Ms. LaCroix, was very excited
about the trip because of all the
opportunities there were. Our
school had the second largest
group there, we had 38 students
out of two thousand.
The paper will be put out
monthly, and LaCroix wants the
paper and yearbook to reflect
student interests and concerns.
Also to be a student publication.
The class is hard work and the
students in the class are begin
ning to understand long hours.
Some thought it would be all fun
and little work, but it is very hard
and time consuming.
When Audrey Jones was asked
why the class was special to her
she stated that it was "Because
of the freedom, trust and inde
pendency Ms. LaCroix and the
editors put into each and every
person to get the job done."
Jones’ goals for the year are to
"Put out good stories so that my
buddies will be proud of me."

Many students head over to
the CAEC building to thaw them
selves by getting a piping hot cup
of coffee or tea. Scott Winsor can
be found there often, either mun
ching down on popcorn, or just
kicking back and "jawing" with
all the girls who come in.
All of this is just a typical night
on campus. Never a dull mo
ment!!!!!
And I will smell,
the suffocating, heavy stench
of smoking marijuana;
bloom...
into the beautiful fragrance
of an innocent Rose.

Then I will reach out my hand
and Feel:
The comforting warmth
of your loving Spirits.
I will open my mouth and say:
“My Brothers and My Sisters.. .
All of you.”
Then I will lift my eyes,
and look up towards the sky.
Up to where our relatives are...
All of our relatives.
Our Parents. . . our Grandparents...
MY HEART IS YOURS
My heart belongs to you,
my love as I may live.
And all my happiness and
sympathies to you alone I give.
As long as there is sunlight,
and a single star above,
Just as long as any song will
echo my words of love

I offered you my heart, and
all th a t might ever be
If only every hour you would
sham your life with me.
And when you took my
promised
love, and when you declared
I
your own, I knew th at I would II
never cry, or feel alone.
And th a t is why I strive,
to make your dreams come
true,
and why in everyway,
My love
My heart,
Belongs to you
I
Love a friend, GK
I WISH I HAD.....
A little of your love,
A bit of your time,
Just to show you care.
A moment of your life,
With me very near,
A piece of your heart
Understanding for a tear.
A simple hello,
Up to where there is no darkness;
no race, no creed... No Pain.
Up to where have gone
so many young lives.
Gone to d e e p ... forever.
I pray their souls
The Creator has agreed to keep.
All of my relatives...
My relatives, your relatives.
They’re all together,
without difference.
Not a soon good-bye,
A show of feeling
No need-to be shy.
A part of your life,
I want so bad,
A small portion of your love
Then, the Creator looks dow n...
and accepts the work
that each of you are doing.
I sincerely hope and pray,
that you can turn to the West,
sometime this fa ll...
And say these same words,
express these same feelings:
For the sake of the Children...
and for me.
god gave me these, (tears)
Please...
take these tears into your hearts,
to nuture the bond,
that has developed between us.
“Pida-maya.” (“You have honored
me.”)
You have honored me so greatly.
You have granted me a part of God’s
precious gift to you:
“The Ability to Share.”
I wish I had!
