Pear Diary,
I know this may soundfunny,
but Angel acts like she’s hot
even a member o f the fam ily
anymore. I mean, you try to
give her a friendly hug, and she
runs to m om telling her that
we’re teasing her. I wish she’d
knock it o ff Just because she’s
m oved up a measly grade in
school doesh’t mean she can
treat us brothers and sisters like
we are the one ’s acting weird.
I wish sh e’d start seeing that
cute man again. He may make
her act normal again. But I ’m
sure we could do the same if
she’d ju st telTus w hat’s wrong
with her!
O n M ay 25, 1985, a young
girl by the nanje of Angel Pres
cott was attacked in an alley in
M adras, Oregon. A young m an
by the ñam e of P eter R om o
found the young lady brutally
beaten, several large cuts in her

Rushed to the hospital, doctors
reported th a t Angel was bleed
ing internally. She was rushed
to the St. Charles M edical H os
pital in Bend, where she had
undergone a two. hour surgery.
One m onth later, doctors had
confirm ed th a t Angel was preg
nant. On June 30, Ángel Pres
cott was granted an abortion.
W hen asked who had done this
to her, she had told the doctors:
“ Mr. S andm an.” ?

That’s a fu n n y phrase to use,
d o n ’t you think? “Dear Diary, ”
That’s Something I ’ve never used
before. But I ju st thought I
should, ju st so I can keep track
o f what’s going on. Kind o f like
a mother to daughter thing
around here.
Judy m oved away. S h e ’s liv
ing in Bend now. B ob’S still
around. You’d think that after
this graduation he’d m ove out
arid start a life o f his own. But I
d o n ’t want to do that, so why
should he? William finally made
it to high school H e’s two grades
ahead o f me. I ’m ju st now in
junior high. A t least it’s better
than grade school.
I d o n ’t want to talk about
this, bitt I think I have to. In
health, we’re learning that an
^olderpersron— be it a woman or
m arc-can get into trouble fo r
touching sm all children. I t ’s
called “Child Sexual A buse.”
That’s ju st what Mr. Sandman
did to me. I d id n ’t know he
could get into trouble fo r doing
that! In fact, I didn’t even know
that there was a name fo r it!
Well, now J know. He hasn’t
done it again, probably because
i l w on’t go near him. I ju st stay
Thorne, and som etim es'go to
•spend the night at a frien d ’s
house. S a n d m a n cam e by
Christmas time. He brought the
most expensive presents a per
son could buy fo r me. Mom
said that m oney made a present
all. the more worse, so I burnt
them. A small, flu ffy p in k teddy
bear (with a small bottle o f per
fume in one fist), make-up (play),
and several teen magazines. I
didn’t like any o f them. A ll I
could think, o f was his hands
touching them. That made burn
ing them more pleasurable. But
the perfum e blew up in a fire.
Ha-ha-ha!
He hangs around with Bob,
now. They go out and drink a
lot together, M om told Bob to
stay away fro m him, but Mr.
Sandman ’s' the one who has all
the money,
■ Well, have a-hippie-dia! Bye!
To all those I hurt:
Annual picnic set
for all employees
Please forgive me, I know I
have done wrong. I didn ’t mean
to hurt her, but it seemed like
the only way to release the
anger I had built up so many
years inside. I pray to the Lord
The 10th annual employees’ oh sale for th ree for $1. The
that I ’ll serve m y punishm ent in
the afterworld, The only way to pibnic is planned for Thursday, tickets can be purchased in the
July 18. The picnic will begin at personnel office or from Theresa

“A measly four-year sentence!
That’s what he g et’s after doing
that to m y little girl! He should
be casterated fo r that deed! So
it was him who made my little
girl fear being hugged, huh?
That burns'me up inside! Why
didn’t she tell me! We Would
have made her p a in g o p w q y j
and^put that man behind very
thick bars the very next day!
What’s he going to do when he
gets out! Go on to another town
and do the same thing to another
girl? M ake her believe that he’s
her friend, then abuse her?
“Why do people do these
things! They can hold in their
anger! Either that, or go punch
a mirror, because it’s them that’s
causing the hurt inside them
selves, not Some little girl who
d id n ’t know what the heck she
was being punished fo r! Four
measly years!” '

now. I can hear the whispering
to bne another, usually things
that aren’t true. It hurts my feel
ings to hear that. I ’m a college
student fro m a small town. A
small town that shouldn’t have
to go through anything like this.
I mean, it ’s ju st a small dot on a
map, fo r heaven’s sake!”

Community Park Constructed
A favorite stop for summ er
travelers continues to be the
M adras Jr. High field. “ M any
people stop to use our grounds
to cool off,” says M JH princi
pal Dick J unge.
Noticing this Junge suggested
to 509-J district superintendent
Darrell W right that a park could
be constructed in a jo in t effort
with the City of M adras. Both
the school board and the City of
M adras agreed with the p ro
posal.
The land being utilized on, E
Street is used little for school
activities and produces # large
expense in watering costs for the
d istric t says Junge.
- '
An agreem ent signed M arch
28, 1985 between thè City and
the D istrict calls fox coopera
tive responsibility for the park.
The City will install curbs and a
driveway, tables, and modify
the sprinkler system for the park
along with picking up refuse.
The District will provide a south
and west fence, plant trees and
shrubs and keep fhe park mowed
and fertilized.
