Boxer, Pacific's Mascot

Richard Thompson with Boxer on the hood of a car

Richard Thompson was a Pacific University student who graduated in 1963. While he was enrolled, his fraternity Phi Beta Tau won possession of the university's mascot, Boxer. In this photograph, taken around 1962, Thompson is leaning next to Boxer, who has been placed on a Pacific University sweater, on top of a car hood. The picture was probably taken near the old elementary school on the corner of SW Pacific Avenue and Highway 8 in Forest Grove. This photograph is from the collection of Richard Thompson, who retains the original print.
