Re: y, i, or ie?????????????????

Now here's something that has always confused me... growing up,
before they adopted their growed up names many kids had what
phonetically sounded like two long "e's" at the ends of their
names... Dickie RHODES ('65) comes to mind... I almost always
used a "y" for guys and "ie" for Bomber-babes... then Dickie
informed me that since the second grade I had misspelled his
name... so is there a Rule like the "i before e... except when
not i before e" ... I mean this is portant stuff... tomorrow's
Bomber guy uses a y while today's Bomber-babe uses an i... 
I am sooooooooooooo confused... so HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Patti
McLAUGHLIN ('65) on your special day, November 16, 2016!!!!!!!!

Re: Coach Max Jensen Invite ~ 10/8/16 Tri City Herald 

The Richland Invitational Cross-Country Meet has been
permanently changed to the Max Jensen Richland Invitational
Cross-Country Meet to honor Max Jensen for his contribution to
the sport. Randy RICE ('73) started contacting previous runners
on Max Jensen's teams to see if they could come to the meet to
honor Max. When the word got out 20-25 runners responded, and
Randy RICE ('73) did a superb job of organizing the surprise
for Max at the race and a dinner afterwards. At the race, the
runners from Max's previous teams came up in groups of three to
embrace Max and let him know what he had done for them. Max
gave out all of the individual and team awards after the race.
Randy RICE gave an outstanding speech during the presentation
of Max's achievements in the sport and how he touched many
lives. After the presentation Max signed T-shirts for the
runners that came and posed for many pictures. After the race
the group went to Dupus Boomers for a celebration dinner, where
many of the runners there were able to tell Max how he touched
and changed their lives. Letters were read from runners who
could not attend. Needless to say it was an emotional time for
Max and all in attendance. I would not have missed it for
anything as Max Jensen touched me and headed me in a new
direction in my life.
