of Washington’s game against California to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Washington’s victory over Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl. The game became famous for the “Sooner Schooner” which took to the field after Oklahoma scored what appeared to be a decisive field goal late in the game. The Schooner was called for a penalty that took the points off the board, forcing Oklahoma to rekick. Washington blocked the second attempt and went on to win the game. Bill was a reserve quarterback on the team that featured the nation’s No. 1 defense with 17 players who went on to the NFL. The team finished second in the nation that season.

Scilla Andreen, CEO and co-founder of IndieFlix, was named one of the Puget Sound Business Journal’s 2015 Women of Influence. Eleanor Moseley Pollnow writes, “I’m a working actor in Seattle, and next up I’ll play Linda Loman in ‘Death of a Salesman’ at ArtsWest Playhouse (a beautiful theater in West Seattle) April 28-May 29. In the fall, you can catch me in ACT’s mainstage
production of ‘Liaisons Dangereuses.’ Lakeside’s drama class with Linda Hartzell clearly made an impact!” See 1982 notes for news on Wade Praeger.

David McCabe writes, “I had occasion to swim across Lake Washington with Eric Ayrault ’83, Bruce Moses ’83, Stowe Talbot, and Wade Praeger ’80. Brian Miller provided support, encouragement, and transportation. The Open Water Swim was a fundraiser put on by the Swim for Children’s Guild of Seattle Children’s. These Lakesiders entered the water early in the morning on Aug. 23 at Matthews Beach (west shore of Lake Washington) and emerged 35 to 55 minutes later at O.O. Denny Park (east shore of Lake Washington). It was a nice swim. It was great to see old friends.”
