With weeks remaining before the June 25 special election, in which Pacific voters will deter-mine whether to recall Mayor Cy Sun, the King County Department of Elections has released the official ballot language.

According to the ballot, voters will have to consider whether Sun committed mal-feasance, misfeasance and violated his oath of office in two instances in their decision to decide whether to remove him from office.

The first issue in question is whether Sun directed Pacific police to “operate as his person-al police force in conducting a criminal investigation into the

identity of those responsible for distributing negative informa-tion and allegations about him (Sun) concerning his Echo, Or-egon property, which is outside of their jurisdiction.”

On April 22, 2012 Sun di-rected then-acting Pacific Police Chief Jim Pickett in a letter to

City leaders fret that the Washington Department of Transportation’s study of a pos-sible Amtrak stop at the Transit Station is breaking in a direc-tion that does not bode well for Auburn.

So concerned are City lead-ers, Public Works Director Dennis Dowdy told members of the Community Develop-ment Committee on Tuesday, that they have asked for a meet-ing with the Washington State Secretary of Transportation “to see if there is some way we can get this train back on track. It’s sort of derailed.”

What’s happened, Dowdy said, is that WSDOT’s own work schedule, which sets dates for the completion of various important study benchmarks, has “collapsed,” leaving crucial technical work unfinished the WSDOT should have complet-ed five to six months ago.

Because the City does not yet have the technical report it should have, Dowdy said, it has not had the quality time it needs to review the state’s work and make suggestions.

Dowdy said that WSDOT staff also have said that they

GRCC faculty expresses no confidence in presidentREPORTER STAff

A majority of tenured faculty at Green River Community Col-lege has lost all confidence in the college’s president, accord-ing to documents the Auburn Reporter has received.

So severe is the deterioration of support for GRCC President Eileen Ely, in fact, that 92 per-cent of GRCC’s 112 tenured fac-

ulty voted May 22 in support of a no-confidence resolution.

“An over-whelming majority of the tenured faculty is very concerned about what has

happened at (the college) over the past three years,” faculty wrote in a letter to the college’s accreditation team.. “… We are deeply troubled by the disman-tling of shared governance, low morale and the deteriorating workplace atmosphere at the college.”

In their letter, tenured faculty cited concerns about the admin-istration’s “lack of transparency, poor communications and unwillingness to consult with faculty on decisions affecting in-struction. These negative trends have intensified over the past three years, and we are gravely

Auburn’s Ryan Cummings recently represented Washing-ton state at the Congressional Foster Youth Shadow Day in Washington, D.C.

Members of Congress were paired with young foster care alumni (ages 18-22) from the member’s Congressional dis-

trict. Forty youth accompanied their members of Congress to hearings, meetings, floor votes and other activities.

Youth had the opportu-nity to share their stories with Congress and discuss reforms to the foster care system.

Cummings is in college searching for the career path. He is an integral member of

Washington’s foster youth and alumni advisory board, Pas-sion to Action.

Cummings also is the youth representative on Washington’s Commission on Foster Care, working with lawyers, judges, legislators and administra-tors in crafting well informed foster care policy.

Orion Industries trains people struggling with bar-riers to employment then helps them get jobs in the community.

In 2012, the company helped more than 350 people from Federal Way to Auburn, to Kent, Renton, Tacoma and Seattle, placing more than 100 of them in community jobs, an achievement worth $3 mil-lion to the region.

Now the company, which has outgrown its facility in Federal Way, is prepar-ing to break ground on a 100,000-square-foot build-ing in Auburn, on 6.5 acres of undeveloped property just west of the Auburn Municipal Airport and north of the Metro Park and Ride.

The groundbreaking starts at 2 p.m. Thursday, June 6 at 1590 A St. NE. Orion has in-vited Gov. Jay Inslee, Mayor Pete Lewis, King County Executive Dow Constantine, and King County Represen-tative Pete von Reichbauer to say a few words.

When the new building opens this December, it will house corporate operations and Orion’s growing manu-facturing, contact center services and training and employment divisions. In Federal Way it employs 225 people in three buildings.

“Auburn is a key loca-tion for Orion for several reasons,” said John Theisen, Orion president and CEO. “Importantly, it puts us in closer proximity to our larg-est manufacturing customer, Boeing Auburn, and posi-tions us closer to a growing cluster of aerospace suppli-ers. Notably, this location also increases accessibility to public transportation for staff and training program participants.”

investigate the persons responsible for publishing a document in Pacific titled, “Who Is the Real Cy Sun?,” which has became known as the “Echo Papers.”

Attributed to the Concerned Citizens For

Decency in Pacific Govern-ment, the “Echo Papers” allege that Sun lied about owning a 700-acre ranch with an operating credit line of $2 million in Echo, a community of about 700 people in Umatilla County in northeastern Oregon.

The document states, “Cy

and Barbara Sun own a 20-acre parcel of land at 5100 Gerone Street in Echo, Or-egon ….” The flyer, which was included in the Com-mittee to Recall Cy Sun’s Declaration of Charges, also alleges that the property is only worth $14,141.

Refuting of the charges

against him in the recall, Sun claims he directed police officers to investigate a “prior misuse of police resources, specifically requesting an explanation as to why officers had previ-ously travelled outside of their jurisdiction to Oregon when not directed or ap-

proved to do so.”Because Sun’s letter to

Picket did not reference any crimes committed in the City of Pacific, the police department refused to investigate them.

According to Pacific Councilman Clint Steiger, a vocal opponent of the controversial mayor, Sun’s allegations against the department and the claim that Sun “continues to fight against the entrenched corruption in the City of Pacific” are unfounded.

“The police department were never involved in that investigation,” Steiger said. “I was the person that did all that.”

According to Steiger, he obtained information re-garding Sun’s farm in Echo by calling and talking with an office worker in Echo’s City Hall.

Steiger also weighed in on Sun’s response to the second charge in the recall that he jeopardized the City’s liability insurance coverage by not filling vacant department head positions.

In the ballot language, Sun places the blame at the feet of the City Council.

“Where he states the council has been reject-ing his people, the people he’s brought have not met the qualifications so they’ve been rejected by the

council,” Steiger said. “His accusations are all junk.”

Although Sun has steadfastly maintained that a culture of corruption was prevalent in the City’s prior administration under former mayor Richard Hil-dreth, a Washington State Auditor’s review earlier this year of Pacific’s books from Jan. 1, 2011 to Dec. 31, 2011, found “no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Govern-ment Auditing Standards.”

“(There were) more than 40 claims of corruption in the City from various sources, newspaper articles and blog postings,” City Councilman Joshua Put-nam said after the report was released in February. “They investigated all of them, went over budget on hours and at the end of the day found no corruption, no improper governmental actions.”

Hildreth has filed a lawsuit against Sun and the City of Pacific to clear any charges that he ran a cor-rupt administration.

Sun did not respond to an email request for an interview.

The vote to recall Sun is June 25. A simple majority is needed to oust him from office. The final election re-sults will be certified July 9.

are relying upon a market survey piece with specific criteria that Amtrak has mandated they apply in choosing Amtrak stops.

Thing is, the WSDOT has been reluctant about sharing the results of that survey with the City of Auburn. And when Dowdy asked to see a copy, he said, the response he got was that it was “proprietary information.” After more than a week of pressing the issue, Dowdy said, the state claimed that the only way Auburn could get a look at the survey would be by submit-ting a public disclosure request (PDR).

More than a week has passed since the City made its request, Dowdy said, and all that he has gotten so far is an assurance from the woman handling the PDR that she is trying to get the quasi-pub-lic Amtrak to release the “propri-etary information.”

All of which puzzles and frus-trates Dowdy.

“Truth be told, all they would really have to do if they had it, would be to mark it as exempt from public release and give it to us,” Dowdy said. “That’s about how difficult it is to release the information to us.”

For three to four months Au-burn has been piping its displea-sure into state ears, with not much to show for it.

“The result is that we are in a holding pattern, hoping that we get that technical survey report to be able to review, so we can modify comments according to each of the technical documents that we have reviewed so far,” Dowdy said. … “We would like to get it back on track and following a schedule that’s deliberate. We would like to have a chance to give them a good, quality review. Even if it means delaying the study by a few months, it would be far better, so at least we understand it, even if we don’t like the results.

At the request of the City, state Sen. Joe Fain (R-Auburn, District 47) last year asked the WSDOT to conduct the study of the Auburn area to determine if a stop here would work.

Passenger trains came to Auburn for about 80 years, and Mayor Pete Lewis makes no bones about his desire to make it an Amtrak stop once more.

“The City of Auburn has been a train town almost since its begin-ning,” Lewis recently told the Au-burn Reporter. “The reality is that Auburn has been made a central location by geography and our road system for the transportation needs of communities from Lake Tapps and Enumclaw, Black Diamond, Maple Valley and Covington, along with Algona and Pacific, with many of the residents of Federal Way needing to use Amtrak.”

Directing and writing movies easier than real life

Robert Rossen recently hooked me for a couple of hours.

I came across the 1947 movie “Johnny O’Clock” starring Dick Powell, Lee J. Cobb, Evelyn Keyes and Nina Foch.

It has one of my favorite lines in film noir history, uttered by Johnny, played by Powell.

“I do not know what’s going on, and I don’t like it when I don’t know what’s going on.”

That sums up Rossen’s dialogue and life in many ways.

Rossen was one of the great dialogue writers and directors of his day. “Johnny O’Clock” was his first job as a director. He

was promoted after the original director, King Vidor left, I think.

(Someone on Face-book just correctly noted it was Charles Vidor and I had writ-ten William Powell, and it should have

been Dick Powell.)Rossen directed three of my favorite

pictures, “All the King’s Men,” “Body and Soul” and, in 1961, “Hustler,” with Paul Newman, Jackie Gleason and George C. Scott.

There are few moments in film like the end of “Hustler” when Scott growls across the pool hall at Newman, “I want my money.”

Rossen is an interesting character. He was one of the best at writing story and dialogue. His film talk lives well after the picture has ended.

But in 1951 it was Rossen not talking, then finally talking, that got him into the trouble that plagued him until his death in 1966 at the age of 57.

The House Un-American Activities Com-mittee named him a communist in 1951. Rossen refused to name names the first time the committee brought him before its mem-bers, but two years later he named 57.

ox Partridge, ‘one of us,’ is the choice for Auburn mayor

During his time as council-man, John Partridge has shown many excellent qualities of leadership. As chairman of the finance committee and as a member of the Municipal Ser-vices Committee, he provides solid and sensible leadership.

His most well-known exam-ple of leadership as a council-man, of course, is the creation of the Auburn Valley Humane Society. His vision, planning, collaboration, fund-raising and coordination with various City agencies all culminated in a functioning, independent and self-funding organization that is improving life in Auburn for both its pets and its residents.

John’s ability to turn a vision into action and action into re-ality is something that has been sorely missing in Auburn since we moved here in 2005.

Also missing in the recent past has been an open, com-municative city government. Too many projects seem to appear with little or no public input (see the new promenade for evidence). The present gov-ernment structure of “strong mayor” and obedient deputy mayor creates an atmosphere

of power and secrecy that makes City Hall a generally unfriendly place to visit.

John Partridge has shown that he will break that pattern. I recently spoke to John about a small business owner who was struggling to get the City to provide help in finding her way through new licensing and building requirements. Up until then, she was unable to get constructive responses from anyone at City Hall. Even a visit to the mayor himself resulted in obfuscation and patronizing responses. After my call, John took it upon himself to visit the business owner, find out the nature of the problem and contact the appropriate City agencies who, in turn, contacted her. When have you heard of any other councilmember taking such a proactive approach?

John’s experience as an inde-pendent business man also

With a steady stream of bad news stories about maimed soldiers, the Bos-ton Marathon bombing and the house of horrors in Cleveland, it would be natural to despair for the human condition. What defect in the human char-acter allows us to do such things?

But the survivors of these terrible ordeals tell a different story, one of courage, strength, determi-nation and hope. It is the story of the indomitable human spirit.

Iraq war veteran Army Sgt. Brendan

Marrocco lost his arms and legs

to roadside bomb in 2009. Not satisfied with his prosthetic arms, Marrocco took a major risk by opting to become the first soldier to receive an arm transplant. The 13-hour double transplant surgery was the first ever performed at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and only the seventh to be performed in the United States.

Just days after his surgery, Mar-rocco’s spirit and sense of humor were on display when he met with reporters.

Comparing himself to his favorite character in the Harry Potter books, he called himself “the boy who lived.” “I never really accepted the fact I didn’t have arms,” Marrocco said, “Now I have them back, and it’s like I went back four years and I’m me again. It’s a second chance to start over after I got hurt.”

At last report, Marrocco’s progress

I became interested in that period of American history when I did a story about Alger Hiss, who went to jail for perjury after Whittaker Chambers named him as a commu-nist.

Like almost all stories I have done over the years, once you peel back the basic layer of facts, beneath is a team story of conflict, confusion and contradic-

tion. The truth of a story is never as simple as most would like it to appear. The truth winds its way through half steps of what appears to be facts. The Hiss story was an example, and his guilt and innocence are argued to this day.

Rossen’s career is a fasci-nating study in the conflict of what we do and say. His films are filled with the warp and woof of words.

Rossen could write great dialogue, but couldn’t find

the right words at the right time to keep himself out of trouble with friends and foes.

“I do not know what’s going on, and I don’t like it when I don’t know what’s going on.”

makes him an excellent candidate for mayor. He knows the value of careful planning, budgeting and serving the clients. The mayor of Auburn should be “one of us,” someone who is interested in serv-ing all of us, not just the select few.

John “gets it” in a way that our current mayor or his deputy never have. Auburn citizens are the mayor’s clients, not face-less, nameless blanks who need to just keep quiet and stay out of the way.

Finally, John is an Auburn native, an active member of the com-

munity and an Auburn High graduate. His three daughters all graduated from AHS as well.

From his participa-tion in the Miss Auburn Scholarship Pageant to his strong moral beliefs and his devotion to physical fitness, to his overall visibility in the community, and to his business experience and communication skills, John Partridge rises far above the other candi-dates for mayor.

Voting for John Par-tridge will be a vote for real change and progress in Auburn. The other candidates offer either “same ol’, same ol’,” or ab-

solutely no experience in city government, business or leadership. If you really want Auburn to be “more than you imagined,” you will vote for John Partridge for mayor.– John Pinsker

was astounding his physical therapists. While it will be two or three years before he regains full sensation in his arms, Marrocco told Stars and Stripes his new arms give him hope for the future.

While such a tragedy would understandably devastate most of us, the 32-year old Haslet is determined not to let it ruin her life. “I abso-lutely want to dance again, and I also want to run the marathon next year,” she told the Associated Press. “I will crawl across the finish line, literally crawl, if it means I finish it.”

Speaking about her ordeal, she told a Seattle television station, “I just want people to

know that you can come out of a situation that might seem like the end of the world and come out stronger.”

That same strength of will miraculously sustained Amanda Berry, Gina DeJe-sus and Michelle Knight, who recently escaped from their decade-long captivity in a Cleveland home. The three were kidnapped as young girls and abused and tortured for more than 10 years. It may take years for them to fully recover, but amazingly, they emerged from that house of terror with awe-inspiring strength and presence of mind.

As we despair of the violence people wreak upon each other, we should also remember the selflessness, courage and compassion people show. Thousands of first responders rushed into the Twin Towers on 9/11, driven by a sense of professional duty and hu-man compassion. One of

them, off-duty firefighter Steven Siller, ran almost two miles through the closed Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel wearing 60 pounds of gear to join the rescue attempt. Siller perished that day, along with more than 400 other first responders.

When we think of the Boston bombings, we also should remember the sight of scores of medical person-nel and volunteers imme-diately rushing toward the blast zone, with no thought for their own safety.

We face many challenges today, but rather than think of ourselves as victims, we should emulate those who confront tragedy and vio-lence with courage, refusing to be beaten, determined to prevail.

That indomitable human spirit is our greatest asset and our greatest hope.

What’s more, faculty wrote, during Ely’s tenure several top-level employees have either left, been de-moted or been dismissed.

A dozen division chairs, including Hank Galmish, an English professor and chairperson of the school’s Instructional Council, signed the letter.

Ely acknowledged the concerns. In her email response, she said she “welcomes “the opportunity to meet and have a coura-geous conversation with the members of the Instruc-tional Council Leadership

who brought these concerns forward.”

After the tenured faculty issued their resolution, the GRCC Board of Trustees expressed unanimous sup-port for Ely.

“The board of trustees stands behind President Ely,” said board chairman Tom Campbell. “We are happy with the direction she is taking Green River and the leadership team she has assembled”.

Faculty claim that the college is “in crisis” and that there is a lack of shared gov-ernance between the faculty and administration. As part of their resolution, they re-quested the reinstatement of

past practices and policies, including broad involve-ment in decision-making related to instruction and institutional effectiveness.

In his response, Campbell said the board “takes the issues seriously and will review the statements made at the meeting.” He said the faculty leadership needs to “come to the table” and accept the invitation the college administration has extended to have “a coura-geous conversation” to dis-cuss the issues of concern.

The faculty members presented their concerns in April to the college’s board of trustees.

participants in the “Bee”.The play premieres 7:30

p.m. Friday, the first of seven performances at the historic theater.

“Having the audience members on the stage, you just never know what’s go-ing to happen,” Messinger said. “Every single night is a different show. That’s obvi-ously very fun for the cast members and the audience.”

The production is the sixth play put on by the Auburn Community Play-ers, but the first directed by Messinger, according to producer Jim Kleinbeck. The play takes a humorous, touching musical glimpse into the lives of six adoles-cents as they compete in a spelling bee run by three adults.

“They’ve done a won-

derful job. It’s been a great change of pace to work with new people, even though she’s (Messinger) been our musical director the last couple of shows,” Kleinbeck said. “They bring a new perspective. They definitely have put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into this show.”

Messinger said she jumped at the chance to direct the play because of its humor and focus on adolescence.

“This play is about the journey that kids go through in their adoles-cence,” she said. “I’ve seen it a couple times and almost directed it once. I just feel in love with the story of each kid. We all know somebody like this, we grew up with somebody like this. There is the home-schooled kid, there is the kid that

knows everything about everything. There is the girl that can do everything, and she does it all. We can all identify with every charac-ter in there in one way or another. That spoke to me.

“And the humor is in there, it vacillates between being very funny and very touching,” Messinger added. “There is a lot of good emotion in it. And good music.”

The Auburn Community Players have been working on the show since April, according to Messinger, who hopes the affection the cast has developed for their roles comes through during

performances.“All of these people have

day jobs. Nobody is a pro-fessional actor, but they’ve just done an amazing job with each character and put their hearts and souls into it, that’s for sure,” she said.

The “25th Annual Put-nam County Spelling Bee” debuts at 7:30 p.m. Friday, with shows on June 1, 7, 8, 14 and 15 at 7:30 p.m. The show will also feature a 2 o’clock matinee on June 9.

Tickets are $14, $15 for students and seniors and are available by calling 253-931-3043 or online at www.auburnwa.gov/arts.

RN Lions snag state 3A baseball crown

By SHAWN SKAGER

[email protected]

Auburn Mountainview baseball coach Glen Walker remembers the moment it all come together for his state 3A championship team.

“There are a lot of things I’ll remember about this year,” Walker said. “I’ll remember the retreat we had at the beginning of the season.”

Before the Lions had even had the chance to lace up their cleats and take to the field last Febru-ary, Walker, coaches and players gathered at the school gym for a night of team bonding.

“They all stayed up until 3 or 4 in the morning,” Walker said. “The next Monday, things were different, attitudes were different. Guys were nicer to each other. It seemed like they all trusted what I was trying to do, and they trusted what each other was trying to do.”

For the top-ranked Lions (26-3), it was that trust and confidence that proved to be the difference, culminating with a 7-1 win over West Seattle in the Washington State title game at GESA Stadium in Pasco last Saturday.

“They believed in each other,” Walker said. “There was not one guy who thought they had to do it themselves. It was a combination of ‘if I don’t get my

job done, the guy behind will. If he doesn’t, the guy behind him will.’ They learned early on that if we have an out left, we have a chance at winning.”

It was a lesson that would serve the team well all season, especially in the postseason.

“Once we started going through league and we were doing well that gave us confi-dence,” senior co-captain Matt Anderson said. “We had a feel-ing that we had a good chance

of going all the way.”After winning the South

Puget Sound League 3A title, Auburn Mountainview stepped it up, capturing the district championship and surging into the state tournament.

After winning the opening game of the state playoffs, 2-0 against Glacier Peak, the Lions found themselves facing a famil-iar foe, league rival Decatur,

Auburn Mountainview senior Devin Bryant led the way for the Lions with a second-place finish in the long jump at the Wash-ington State 3A Track and Field Championships last weekend.

Bryant soared 22 feet, 9 3/4 inches at Mount Tahoma Stadium last Friday night.

“Devin Bryant was just re-ally ready to compete,” Lion track coach Joel MacDougall said. “He actually switched up the foot he jumps off of in the long jump during the district meet because of shin splints. It is unconven-tional, especially to make the change right before state, but our jumps coach, Kent Rodseth, prepared him very well for the meet and he delivered.”

Also placing for the Auburn Mountainview boys

was senior Nicholas Aumua who was sixth in the discus with a toss of 139-9.

Sophomore Trevor Jensen was 16th in the shot put (44-7 3/4).

“We were a little disap-pointed that Chris Scharer didn’t make the podium in

the 800-meters,” MacDou-ball said. “He ran in the slower of the two heats and missed qualifying by .09 seconds. He actually ran a very good race but qualify-ing can often come down to fraction of a second. He had a great season and we’re

going to miss him, and the other seniors very much next season.”

Bellevue won the boys title with 65 points. The Lions finished tied for 22nd with 11 points.

In girls 3A, the Lions fin-ished 29th, tied with Lakes and Lakeside with 6.5 team points. Kamiakin won the title with 118.5 points.

Auburn Mountainview junior Rachel Greve was sixth in the javelin with a throw of 113-6.

Junior Maddie Taylor finished tied for eighth in the high jump (4-10) and sopho-more Heaven Palaita was 11th in the shot put (33-10 3/4). Senior Abi Alfrey was 16th in the long jump (15-7 3.4) and competed but did not place in the triple jump.

The Lions’ 800 relay team – Nicole Carter, Naomi Maya-Mendoza, Kelly Brud-vik and Alena Starverova – finished sixth (1:46.53).

in the quarterfinals. With its season on the line, Auburn Mountainview responded with a 9-8 come-from-behind victory to earn a semifinal game against Kennewick.

“We always had confi-dence during games,” An-derson said. “During the season we’d come back in multiple games. We always believed in ourselves, and our coaches believed in us.”

“We get a lot of energy in the dugouts. We get behind our teammates,” senior co-captain Brice McCulloch added. “We take it one at-bat at a time. We get loud. It gives our hitters confidence at the plate, and if we get the energy in the dugout then the guys in the field know we’re alive.”

Against Kennewick in the semifinals the Lions again found themselves trailing but were able to mount yet another comeback to earn a spot in the title game with a 6-3 victory.

The championship game was almost anticlimatic, with Auburn Mountain-view firmly in control from the beginning.

“It was a big relief because we had (rallied) three or four times during the tournament,” Ander-son said. “It was relieving to be able to jump out early and take the lead during a game.”

“When that final out … happened, I looked Joey Cassano in the eyes, ran up, gave him a hug and we started that dog pile,” Mc-Culloch said. “That feeling of being at the bottom of the pile, I don’t think I can imagine anything ever feeling like that. It was re-ally great. At that moment all we worked for came together and we were state champs.”

The state title is the first for the school’s baseball program but the second for Walker, who won a state title at Liberty with major-leaguer Tim Lince-cum in 2003.

“We did it a whole lot differently this year, we won everything,” Walker said. “There is not a title out there that we don’t own right now. We didn’t have the stud, the (Division I) big-league Cy Young guy on the hill. The only simi-larity was that both teams were close, a tight-knit group that likes each other and plays for each other. Ultimately, I think that is the difference between being good and being a champion.

“I’ll remember that we did things this year that we’ve never done before,” Walker continued. “They are just a great, fun group to be around. From Feb. 25 until the end they were fun, energetic. They had great personalities. They worked hard and never complained.”

Stadium in Tacoma. “But it’s state. I’m just glad to be here. It’s bad in the springtime with the pollen. It just kills it. But I just gave it my all.”

For Love, his time of 1 minute, 57.94 seconds in the finals – about three seconds slower than the 1:55.07 personal-best time he ran in the prelims on Friday – was a fitting end to his prep run-ning career.

“I’m happy with what I’ve accomplished in my four years at Auburn Riverside, I really am,” said Love, who hopes to run at Washington

State University next season.As a team, the Ravens

finished in a tie for 38th place with Pasco. Federal Way ran away with the team title with 90 points.

Auburn Riverside sopho-more Mar’Yea Harris finished eighth in the 400 with a time of 51.11, and senior Devon Larson was eighth in the 110 hurdles with a 15.48.

Senior Joe Miles capped his high school career with an 11th-place finish in the shot put (48 feet, 7 1/4 inches),

The Auburn Riverside girls finished seventh in the team competition with 31 points. Federal Way captured the title with 42 points.

The Ravens were led by senior Brandi Williams, who dueled with her Flying AJ’s club teammate, Curtis senior Kennadi Bouyer, in the 100, 200 and long jump.

Williams grabbed second in the 200 (25.2) behind Bouyer (24.84). Bouyer also took first in the 100 (11.96) with Williams finishing third (12.22).

In the high jump, Bouyer and Williams were bested by Garfield’s Baileh Simms who won the event with a leap of 19-8. Bouyer was second (19-6 3.4) and Williams third (19-0 1.4).

Museum seeks items from ’50s, ’60s for next exhibit

A juke box, a record player, a flashy painted car hood or other parts, a car bench seat.

What do these things have in common? Well, they are memo-rabilia the White River Museum doesn’t have but “most desperately needs” for its next exhibit, “Grease Was the Word,” said museum director Patricia Cosgrove.

The exhibit, now in the planning stages, will focus on the 1950s and ’60s car culture in Auburn.

“For it we need to locate a number of items that we just don’t own. We do not necessarily need donations; loans would do as well,” Cosgrove said.

Here are some of the other items needed:• Elvis poster, record cover• Beatles poster, record cover• Shangri-Las poster, record cover• Supremes poster/record cover• A radio• Stack of .45s• Class rings• Any memorabilia from non-Gearlords car clubs

All items must be identified by mid-June.
