The Spirit of '65

Viet Nam and Civil Rights,
Astronauts and tavern fights,
Silver standard -- yes or no,
Ministers versus a-go-go-go.

TV specials, Christmas Ball,
Communists, or Charles de Gaulle,
Time to place your New Year's bet,
Who's on first in Red Roulette?

Burning draft cards, year-end sales,
007, mates for whales,
Florida storms and record rains,
A husband at last for Luci Baines.

Vatican Council kills the pill;
Soon fish on Friday will be nil.
The door shuts on Red China again --
Peace on earth; good will toward men.

By Paula Madsen
The Asquith, January 17, 1966

During the 1965-1966 season, Jon Nelson, Mike Montgomery, Bob Tutland,

Here's to you Jaime!

Life-long friends Sandee Kacher, Beth Buckley, Cathy Campbell, and Barbara Lilly
hoist a glass of cheer (or two) to one another while on tour, and by all accounts
 on the loose, in the big sky country of Montana and Wyoming.

Golf Heaven & Art Alive in Gig Harbor

My husband Chris loves fishing and golf, so we bought a home in Gig Harbor on
 Wollochet Bay, in a development with its own marina, boat launch and private beach.
This area is Golf heaven for golfers. For me, it is a very active ART alive community.
I have a new studio and a neighbor who has a studio, and we are all ready having fun.
We have almost an acre that has not been landscaped. We will be
busy kids here, but I love it!

Thanks for Class of 1966 Web Site

Thank you for the EHS Class of 1966 web site. I went to Immaculate Conception
through the 8th grade and then went away to a religious high school, so I lost
touch with many old friends. Although I would have attended Cascade High School,
I knew many of the EHS students who attended Immaculate, and through
playing sports. It has been a nice journey down memory lane seeing the pictures
of my friends posted on the web site and reading the reunion booklet.

"Grinning" Cougars into Submission

Here Bob Crocker climbs Coldwater Peak just before Thanksgiving. He
reports encountering not only snow half way up the peak but also COUGAR
tracks! Deciding to give chase, he planned to sneak up on the big cat
while in its lair sleeping, and then to "grin" it into submission (a technique,
he says, that is also successful on "babbling liberals"). Unfortunately,
the big cat slipped away, leaving Bob with only the hope it might
return to see him grin another day (in 2012?).

South Jr Best Buds - Still!

South Jr Classmates, recognize who're behind these Foster-Grants?
They parted ways after middle school, and neither graduated from EHS (though
they are known to many of us!). These two close friends met up recently in
San Jose, CA, and sent along some pictures. Any guesses?
(Submitted by Dean DeRosa)

Hint  |  Answer
The answer is deliberately inverted!

Lowell Kindergarten Mystery

You may recognize several classmates here, pictured as they
started out at Lowell School kindergarten in 1953.
But does anyone know the names of the triplets, and
what became of them?
(Submitted by Dean DeRosa)

A gold star goes to Janet Galbraith-Mason for identifying
the triplets' first names as Linda, Lorna and Louise, and
another gold star goes to Cheryl Thomas-Mongeon for
identifying their last name as Hubbard!
