Elizabeth (Betty) Sargent Bowles City: Orinda State: CA If you are not able to attend the reunion, what would you like to say to your classmates as they gather on campus to celebrate? After graduation in 1952 I came down to the Bay Area and have never left. Sorry I cannot attend the reunion--I am sure you will all have a great time.

The classrooms contain more than 200 computers which we have donated. This project is providing computer training in grades one through six for hundreds of students who otherwise would not have it. School directors report students in these computer classrooms show significant improvement in their academic grades. Important to me to give something back to improve quality of life in this community. What is the professional or personal achievement of which you are the most proud?

Elizabeth Nance City: Portland State: OR Work Information Business: North Portland Bible College Position: Founder, Retired Librarian, Honorary Member, Assistant to the President Do you have children? What are their names and ages? Our four were born in Hong Kong between 1940 and 1944 beginning with Winifred, who attended the University of Oregon, found herself pursued by a Canadian premed student at Urbana, Illinois' annual missions conference during winter break. He hopped over several rows of seats to introduce himself. When she was 21 Winnie, having dual citizenship, chose to be a Canadian, having become his close pen pal and wife. With her degree earned in Vancouver, BC she taught elementary children until at last they could have their own when Paul Plummer had MD GP after his name. Before I could enjoy this family often enough their Cesna plane crashed into Lake Superior in 1968, six months before their turn to go to Haiti as independent missionaries in a revolving service with two other families. My second child is Ancil Nance, who, after Portland State College, went back to teach with his high school teachers at Jefferson High School until the opportunity to teach in the newly-built free-wheeling Adams High School,also in Portland, which offered or fun and creative classes. He taught photography, geology, climbing, history with humor,all without the usual looming end-term grade

8

that could quash the excitement of learning for some. Today Ancil's Designs for Web work, paragliding, weekly hiking and photography outdoors with Molly, emailing his prolific opinions to The Oregonian, banjo lessons, concert and movie-going when he isn't listening to an audio book or seeing his family all seem toned down from his previous years. He contributed to Portland Scribe, Oregon magazine, Willamette Weekly, Outdoor Life, etc. and flew to Nike, Addidas and Yangtze River Expedition photo assignments, but he IS 71 this month. His children are Lisa Veber, Martin Nance, and Amelia Johnson Nance. Jonathan was born next, Ancil's top sidekick for the best "boy fun companion" a child could hope for. He collected spotted cowry seashells from the Army tank-littered shores of Okinawa when our freighter stopped there one morning in the three-week voyage to San Francisco from Hong Kong, continuing his interest in being outside exploring nature. At Portland State College he envisioned using his canoe someday to navigate the various little villages along the Amazon with a load of Bibles in their language so that those people could learn, as he had, that mankind has a wonderful Savior Who left Heaven's grandeur to give Himself on a cross in obedience to God His Father and to fulfill Old Testament prophecies so man can be reconciled to God. Jon believed all history was His Story. To become adept at advanced canoeing techniques, Jon and his pal David King pushed off into Oregon's Clackamas River rapids the day after Christmas, 1961. It was his last training exercise. I named our fourth and last baby Eunice because it means "happy victory" and the tides of World War II had changed in favor of the Allies when she was born. Also, an interned missionary named Eunice Johnston generously gave me her daily ration of a few tablespoons of canned milk because of all my children. My husband played his banjo in prison camp and Eunice was soothed by it inspire of a meager diet. Ancil plays that very banjo now. On the ship home in1949 I would play a little accordion for the children and Eunice always remembered that and played that accordion as a homesick teenager and has since bought two others because of memories. She attended three colleges but was happiest with her Mrs. Degree, as they say. She volunteered 14 years as a church pianist and organist, was president of the Portland Organ Guild one year, trained to be a jail chaplain until she learned an accordion was considered contraband in a jail setting- too dangerous. She has won poetry prizes but prioritizes being with her husband Wayne Reynolds, a retired Tri Met driver who began volunteering at once for Loaves and Fishes, Ikonokai, and church. Their daughters and 17 grandchildren keep them busy, but they shop weekly for me! Without naming and describing my 21 grandchildren, here is the short biography of Eunice's oldest daughter, Ordella Jean, whom we all have called "OJ": OJ surprised us all by not being a baby very long! She was the most cheerful being with quick understanding as she said words before she walked, and she walked at nine and a half months, and was diaper-trained at ten months, so it seemed right to take her to her first Portland Grand Floral Parade with her mother and me at sixteen months! She loved that parade, sang with the bands, moved to the music from her chair on my back, pointed with animation and exclaimed, "Pretty!" over the brightly-flowered floats, toy pinwheels and clopping horses. She became a voracious reader after encouragement from her mom, who showed her flash cards before she was two, and soon we.were calling her twice to come eat because she was deep in her book world. When her sister wanted her to sit upside down on the couch with her, OJ joined her, but was still holding her book with both hands. I caught it on camera. At five she sang her first of many solos at church flawlessly: He's Got the Whole World in His Hands. Her two sisters became a trio as they got older and by high school each of them sang in Cleveland High's Triple Trio and Clevelandaires and spoke in speech teams. At six years OJ emceed her Kindergarten Christmas program with confidence and took armloads of books home to read. when she came to Boise School to visit my classroom she was excited to see books everywhere in the room because I was the Multi-Cultural Library teacher for our district and the Librarian of my school. When she transferred from Trinity Lutheran School to public school she zipped right through the seventh grade material and entered eighth grade in the remaining months of the year, and entered high school with a Baskin Robbins job all four years just up the same

street. She brought her mom a shake sometimes, but studied hard and saved her wages even though her raises were just a nickel at a time! In the Spring of her senior year Cleveland High voted her their Rose Queen after a flawless speech that ended with, "GO FOR IT!" the ovation made my heart burst with pride for my granddaughter. She said, "I only entered because they offered the winner a year of college tuition , Grandma!" and that is why she wrote a speech for an Elks competition.She won and there was the second year of tuition paid for. She wore her white prom dress for those two speech events and then in 1989 used it as a wedding dress, this practical granddaughter of mine! After Portland State University OJ taught at Martin Luther King School. An education administrator from Atlanta, Georgia visited OJ's class in progress and marveled at the technique and ease with which OJ maintained an orderly, happy group as compared to other classrooms, and mentioned to the principal that he would like to make a video of OJ teaching, and though the principal nixed the idea before it got off the ground, I heard of it and was proud. That was my granddaughter. I knew that even at twelve she had command of the children's attention when she taught Junior Church. OJ was one of the teachers who ushered her "I Have A Dream" fifth graders into specific awareness of their worth, potential, and responsibility as Americans in a Democratic country where God is still in the pledge to our flag even if no audible reading of the Bible is lawful in daily morning exercises as it was as late as 195'2 in Portland. OJ and John had a son, Jacob who contracted acute lymphomic leukemia when only two years old. Friends created a food schedule to bring meals since the parents had so many days and nights in the hospital and watching, reading to, and caring for Jacob with more than the usual duties since there was an in-chest line to protect while trying to let him just be as normal a little boy as possible. His Sunsay School teacher mailed his missed Bible lessons and craft kit so OJ could keep him educated in the things of the Lord. Two and a half years later Jacob was in remission and could have the line removed. The firemen from Tualatin that he visited and who visited him were so glad. My daughter made up a victory tune on her accordion and went to his front door, ready to play when it opened. Jacob is 16, 6'6" and a healthy greatgrandson today. OJ hopes to get a teaching job again now that she is back in Portland. Do you volunteer or support non-profit organizations in your community? Why is this important to you? Yes, I taught my children to help with other people's needs in the neighborhood for no pay. I took students trick-or-treating for UNICEF's local chapter, gave the blind broom man a little money, and had my sons and Eunice doing good in Scout dens. They were taught to give and share from an early age since their relatives practiced this. Caroling to less fortunate at Christmas with treats to give to strangers in the community on the same occasion was good for all. As my 30th year of teaching was ending my friend who was a sub took over some necessary hours of teaching so that I could begin my volunteer work as a Bible college founder and meet with others who could come aboard and be networkers and teachers and prayer partners in this large dream I had for my community. As a Christian I believe Jesus would have gathered resources of volunteers around Him, too, because that is what He did with the loaves and fishes for the hungry people around him. That volunteer act to be humane to others is copied throughout the neighborhoods touched today by the non-profit called Loaves and Fishes. What is the professional or personal achievement of which you are the most proud? My goal WAS realized when I was able to found, equip, and develop a non-profit institution of Christian higher education in north/northeast Portland with affordable evening classes in 1982. Where have you lived and traveled? What are your favorite places in the world? I lived in China my first 14 years, visited a Massachusetts grandmother, an Australian friend who kept our belongings while the Japanese detained us three and a half years, learned Chinese in Oklahomah's

10

School of Linguistics, finished course work at University of Washington while living in Kirkland, returned twice to China, visited Canada several times, but call Portland my favorite place since most of my family and friends have been here. If you could live anywhere, where would it be? Portland, OR Did you continue (or are you continuing) your education after Lewis & Clark? What did you study? What is the last degree you earned? Yes, in 1982 I earned a Master of Education from the University of Oregon, took courses in librarianship at PSU, and my last degree was Master of Divinity from Western Seminary in 1985. My first diploma was after two years at Western Seminary in 1938. If money were no object, you would... I would support missionaries in the least evangelized parts of the world! When you were at Lewis & Clark where did you see yourself at the age you are now? I knew i would still be an encourager of students to stay with their studies, advising them when necessary, finding books to help them, and reap the reward of seeing losers become winners, negative lives transformed by forgiveness and friendship. What are the goals/dreams/aspirations you are working towards? You mean, "what are THE goals, etc." I would like to still teach anyone who would like to know the Bible better or know more about missions! What Lewis & Clark professors made the biggest impact on the way you think about the world? I already had my own view and still support social and economic equal opportunity, interactive types of teaching, and creative expression. What memories come to mind when you think about Lewis & Clark? I don't remember. What were your favorite places to hang out as a student, on campus and off? I was always in a rush to load my bicycle basket with my school bag and pedal home (down by Marshall Park) where Eunie, Jonny, Ancil, and Winnie, ages 8, 9, 10, and 11 expected supper fixings from me by the time my husband got home. As for my favorite place to hang out, it was story time with my children every night after supper when I read to them adventures such as, On to Oregon, Children of the Last Crusade, or Kipling's Just So Stories. On Saturdays I traveled to Vancouver to the KVAN station to host Storybook Village while my children sat around our console radio at home waiting for my voice. I did get college credit for that, and enjoyed picking and then telling good stories for children. My children loved it right along with Uncle Bob's Squirrel Cage, The Lone Ranger, and The Cinnamon Bear. What would you have done differently at L&C if you could do it all over again? Not a thing. What was your favorite class? I did not have a favorite class

How have undergrad students changed since you graduated? They depend on more gadgets than pen and papar. What did you do the first year after graduation? I directly taught Fifth Grade at Edwin Markham School and loved it, but requested an underprivileged school after that first year and transferred to Boise School for 27 of my 30 years. The joy that new readers have increases with every book they complete. Some students wanted to write so we started a journalism class and the owner of The Portland Observer donated space and employees to train my students enough to achieve a newspaper production called, Boise Speaks. There was such excitement when the paper was delivered to the school- there was THEIR story with THEIR byline, and how proud those students were to see photos and stories over the year that they had a part in. It was a means of letting them work hard on something they could continue doing after leaving grade school. It had as much teamwork as any sport, and elevated their confidence to express themselves. Self image was not as great a problem among the 99% white middle class Markham class I first taught. These experiences brought me to teach teachers in Multi-Cultural Classes to help them better teach minorities with different needs and sensitivities lest they lose interest or become disparaged. Edwin Markham School was a great launching pad into the more deprived, illiterate part of Portland for my career. If you are not able to attend the reunion, what would you like to say to your classmates as they gather on campus to celebrate? I would like everyone who reads this to consider the Bible, open it, and ask God to teach you from it. It is true. "For He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to Him." Luke 20:38
