THE CLACKAMAS
The Sporting
Fool Speaks
by

House guests and
Human Nature
. Have you ever had a “house
guest” that refused to leave?
Yes, sports fans, the sport
ing fool in his final appearance
will delve into this mystery.
It starts harmless at first.
The guest decides that he would
like to comeover for a visit, just
for a few days, to see the sights.
Yet, after a week or two, the
guest is still there. Does it sound
like mother-in-laws (no offense,
they are probably lovely, mis
understood people)?
So the “friend” doesn’t want j
to leave and decides that he/she
wants to move into the area,
and would you be nice enough
to let him/her stay until he/she
finds a nice place “in the neigh
borhood.”
Three weeks later, the friend
still has not left. In fact, your
neighbors and your family com
plain that the guest is beginning
to irritate the heck out of them.
The friend insists that he will
withdraw, oops, I mean find
another place soon, by this time,
your wife decides that she has
had enough and goes home to
mother.
Yes, this “house guest” is
so irritating that you decide to
do something about it, since ata
dinner party the guest made a
scene involving differences over
the gas for the briquets. Your
friends say that they will back
you up and help you get rid of
this idiot. But, of course, a few
of your friends like the guest
and aren’t really sure.
Now this is where you can
take two alternatives. Either you
can say “screw my friend, we’re
going to fight,” or you can help
him find another place of his
own peacefully. The first op
tion will probably land you a
black eye, charges of assault and
battery, and your house would
probably be destroyed during
the fight.
Which would you actually
choose? Well since no friend
ship is worth ruining, especially
one thatyou have been cultivat
ing for a while (Remember,
you’ve given him money, guns
and other items), why fight?
I think when any normal
functioning human being gets
into a domestic dispute, the
natural thing to do is fight, but
the good thing to do is to talk
through and work out differ
ences. If only everyone lived by
the policy.

watch has switched channels.
Yes, my beloved rookie of the
year selection was, gasp, traded
to Detroit for Lee Norwood.
Hmmm, the possibility of a Yse-
baert-Yzenman-Fedorov line is
interesting, and no doubt to Red
Wing expert Alan Schacht as
well. '

Rally has retired...
December 5,1990
Yes, Softball wants your pennies..
Dance team to boogie
by Aaron Brown
Sports Editor
Say goodbye to the rally team,
and hello to the 1990-91 Clacka
mas Dance Team.
That enigma ofa Rally squad
had been defunct for a few years,
according to sources, which paved
the way for having a revamped
and fresh idea for a Dance Team.
Tryouts were conducted last
week to fill the positions on the
team, which led to quite a few
interested people, giving the judges
quite a field to chose from.
“We had about 26 people come
out, which gave us a lot to choose
from,” commented Student Ac
tivities Specialist Paul Kyllo, who
was one of the judges along with
Wrestling Coach Jim Jackson,
students Susan Frost, and Holly
Frost, who is currently choreog
rapher for the Gladstone dance
team, and will be doing the chore
ography for the team.
According to Kyllo, it was
really difficult to pickout who was
to become a member of the team.
“We (the judges) had specific
criteria that Holly (Frost) had set
up for us,” related Kyllo. “There
was only one or two points sepa
rating all of the potential team
members.”
Kyllo continued that there was
no parity between any of the danc
ers since all of them were close
together skill wise.
“There was really no gap be
tween them, which made things
really difficult,” stated Kyllo.
One interesting note is that
thedancers who will be partici
pating this year will be practicing
at the unholy hour of 6 a.m.
Those that were chosen for
this early hour dance team were
Kerry Aiderman, Janenne Asti,
Tami Cushman, Holly Frost, Angy
Gulbrandson, Julie Hartzell, Erin
Jacobson, Shannon Marra, Kym
Nichols, Lisa Oberle, Hill Rinard,
Sabrina Sabri, Carla Salle, Anne
Schuebel, Cindy Sellers, Alicia
Smith, Rebecca St Wennis, Julie
Tourville, Diane Whitmore, and
Julie Williams.
The general populace will
probably seeing this group fre
quently this year during different
events.

Men’s team
rolls
into
high gear
by Frank Jordan
Staff Writer
The Clackamas Cougars got
the offense rolling into high gear
last Thursday night and came away
with a 94-59 victory over the Lin
field junior varsity squad.
The victory showed a marked
improvement over the team’s
previous three games, both in
shooting the basketball and in
rebounding the ball, according to
Head Coach Royce Kiser.
‘Yes, we shot the ball pretty
well in the game,” commented
Kiser. “We also did a much better
job in going to the boards, both at
the offensive and the defensive
ends of the court.”
The Cougars shot almost 50%
from the floor, going 33-67, in
cluding hitting 7 of 17 from three-
point range. They also shot 80%
from the free-throw stripe, hit
ting 20 out of 25 charity tosses.
Rick Stevens led a very bal
anced scoring attack with 18 points.
Chris Lucas followed up with 14
points, while Glen Kiser chipped
in 12 points. Lucas led the re
bounding with nine boards, while
David Daniels dished off eight
assists to lead Clackamas.
The next action for the Cou
gars will be Dec. 6-8 at the Walla
Walla Tournament in Walla Walla,
WA.
