1976 Seniors Generously Bequeath Possessions to Friends, Teachers
As the Class of 1976 prepares to bid
a fond farewell to John Muir High School, they bequeath their valuables to friends, foes and teachers.
I, Temille Porter, will my memories of "Soul Train"
to Charlie Allen, my Kleenex to Robert Adkins, my book "How to Tell Good Jokes" to Gamal Smalley, and
my "M" Girl uniform to Mr. Yoder.
I, Renee Tajima, will Teri Jenkins my Molotov cocktails, Students
Rights Handbook, and the Pasadena School Board.
I, Melody Goddard, will Interact to Harvey Yamanaka, my kilt
to Dana Rose, the cha-cha to Doug Furuya, my gym shorts to James McGinley, and my brain to Ethyl the Rat.
I, Robert Landel, will one Michael Smith doll to Danny Duncan,
a Weider (aka "Mr. Olympia") body to Mr. Perales, and my love life to Walt Disney.
I, Diane Burden, will a full-length mirror to Tom Richeson
so he can always be closest to the one he loves most.
I, Chris Henno, will my genuine pair of seal skin Speedos
with the reinforced crotch to Tom Reed, and my Elvis Presley poster and 45 of "Don't Be Cruel" to Mr.
Duncan.
I, Pat Lancaster, will my full ride scholarship to the Michael
A. Smith School of Dating to Robert Lee, my sports editor expertise to next year's lucky guy, and a conscience
to next year's ASB members and advisor.
I, Karen Edwards, will my tractor to Mr. Snyder to remodel
the front of the school to the back, and the back to the front again.
I, Linda Merwin, will my basketball talent to Jeanell Barker
and Pam Roberts, who can use it.
I, Mark Razum, will my condensed volume of "Teaching
the Gifted" to Mr. Zweers.
I, Beverly Bourne, will my hundred and some odd unexcused cuts
and tardies to Mr. Gary Talbert, attendance coordinator, to write a book entitled, "Don't Let This Happen
To You."
I, David Saffren, will my attendance record to Mr. Talbert
for wallpaper and my absence excuses to the freshman creative writing classes.
I, John Feinstein, will to Uncle Wally Culbertson a new electronic
timing system as soon as I earn my first million dollars. And to an incoming freshman, my pet rubber ducky named
Herminee to keep him company through those long morning workouts and those even longer afternoon work-outs.
I, Mike Lancaster, will my tons of finished (but strangely unused)
Blazer layout sheets to the next generation of page three editors, the satisfaction of knowing you're "unbeatable"
to next year's choir football team, and lie detector tests on demand for all present and future ASB cabinet members.
I, Robert Timothy Reagan, alias Wittle Timmy Reagan, being of fatigued
mind, do hereby will the duties of Senior Gift Committee chairman to an upcoming senior with a lot of admiration,
dedication, enthusiasm, and a I.Q. of 3.
We, Marilyn Jacobs and Jeff Ettinger, will a real photo staff to next year's editors of Blazer
and Hoofbeats.
