Search On For Students
Popular Threesome Goes Missing

News Flash! Yesterday's freak thunderstorm caught some WPJH students by surprise, apparently. Now there is a widespread search on to recover them and their boat.

Miko Kajiyama, Nakili Abuto and Dana St. Clair are the three girls who have disappeared. According to St. Clair's stepfather, George Redman, the incident was caused by the unpredicted suddeness of the storm.

"Dana and the girls were scheduled to go out for a sail with me yesterday morning. But I had to go home for some supplies, so our leaving was delayed. Neighbors at the marina say the girls rowed out to the diving platform in our dinghy -- and that was the last anybody saw of them. We can only surmise that the storm blew them off course while they were attempting to return to the marina. The good news is that all the girls were strong swimmers. And Dana knows what to do in these kind of situations. We hope to find them very soon."

The geography of the area in which the girls may have strayed is dotted with islands, some of them no more than groups of rocks where birds raise their young. Searching all of them will definitely take some time. Hundreds of volunteers from WPJH students and their families have offered to help the Coast Guard and the Redmans in their efforts.

"There's not a single boat left to rent, power or sail!" says local merchant 'Cap'n Bud' Bladderwrack. "Them young'uns and their folks done taken the lot. Oh well -- at least I won't have ta worry about ma job fer a while."

Coast Guard skipper Hurley Seachum says that may be a problem. "With so many inexperienced sailors out there looking, they're as likely to foul each other or run aground as find the girls. We've already had to rescue several people from minor boating accidents! It's only taking away from our search crews. But I understand they want to help...these are their friends."

This reporter interviewed some of the searchers at the marina before they left this morning:

"Of course I am totally upset and worried about them. They were some of my very best friends in the whole school and we were going to do stuff together this summer! I won't rest until they're found -- by somebody!" -- Rockett M.

"I am due on a plane to Europe next week, but right now I can't think of packing or shopping or anything. I feel a deep responsibility to all the girls in my class. So we're taking our yacht and leading the search. At least I know how to behave on the water -- which is more than some of these sand crabs can say. They should leave it to the experts!" -- Nicole W.

"I just want to say....be brave, girls. We're coming! We will not desert you in your darkest hour! We will fight on to the last man! We will...what do you mean, that's enough?" -- Arnold Z.

"It's a total bummer, man. I'm taking out my windsurfer and cruising the local lagoons to see whazzup. I really got those girls on a deep level, and they're missed. Totally." -- Cleve G.

"I sense more good things than bad about this and so I have to have faith and follow my heart and hope that someone else will use their sixth senses to lead them to the girls. There is definitely sun there. And sand. And plants. And mosquitoes. That's got to be good, right?" -- Mavis W.D.

"I hear they had St. Clair's dog with them. That's good, because it probably has more brains about this kind of stuff than the three of them put together! I mean, dogs have instincts. And they're good at hunting. So I'm thinking they'll be okay. I gotta..." -- Sharla N.

Whatever happens, you know The Whistler will keep you up to date. And to all the searchers: Good Luck and Safe Sailing!

The place to come for bits of gossip, special ads, and notes to readers...

Hey Purple Moonies!!!! Girlfriends, there is NO little girl dying of cancer who is going to be saved by a chain letter. This chain letter is what we call an "urban legend." It gets started by someone and for some reason -- maybe cuz it's appealing to help someone in pain -- it gets passed around as truth for EVER, in a million different places!!! So take a chill pill and dig it. This is not a true story you need to sweat on! Peace Out. -- Editor

Hi this is sportsfan123! I just took a poll on your favorite pop singer or band. Results are: 3rd, Sisqo with the "thong song"; 2nd, Britney Spears with "Oops -- I Did It Again"; 1st, N'Sync with "Bye-Bye-Bye" and "Just Got Paid". Now I need some new polls! Have an idea? Send me a postcard! Thanks to all who took the poll.

All I want to say is to please know what you're getting before you join a club. Most clubs shut down after two weeks. Most clubs don't even send you the treasure they promise you. Or if you send them a treasure, they don't give it back. Thanks for your time. --surfer99863

Write BubbleBaby13 or Girlzclub131 if you are interested, but remember: we can't take ALL of you as are secretaries. We will decide if YOU are the right one!

We're doing a club for purple-moon girls! The first 15 entries we receive for the club are the girls who will be in it! Your entry must include a treasure and statz -- for those of you who don't know what statz are, they're age/male or female/state -- for example, mine would be 12/f/ny. The treasure that you include doesn't have to be a rare treasure it can be any treasure! The club matches you up with girl that has the same statz as you, and once a week there is a random winner for a rare treasure! --Smiles1333 and Coolgirl1947
