Mitchell 4. fy! ,gh W :WW CLASS HISTORY .In the fall of nineteen hundred and forty-two, eighty-six freshmen were enrolled as students of Crook Couinty High School, the largest class of the school. This group, though rather green, was will- ing to work and proved it in their activities. Chosen as officers were as follows: president, Paul Thalhoferg vice president, Allyn Grimes, and secretary-treasurer, Mary Graham. J. C. McPhe- tridge was elected student council member. Ward Sybouts later filled this position when J. C. dropped sgholcgl. Mr. J. A. Howard was adviser of the class o ' . . Paul Thalhofer and Dinty Moore represented the class in athletics, Paul earning his letter in basketball as a member of the A squad. In the field of music the freshmen were well represented in the Christmas program and oper- etta. Ward Sybouts and Paul Thalhofer had lead- ing parts in the operetta. There were many fresh- men in the band also. The Christmas party, which the freshmen spon- sored turned out to be one of the most success- 'ful of the year. The girls in the freshman class have reason to be proud of themselves for being awarded a prize for putting on the best Girls' llieague, program of the year, a Gay Nineties evue.' Our sophomore year was an eventful one. Paul Thalhofer was elected president with the follow- ing officers supporting him: Jim Palmer, vice presidentg Margaret White, secretary-treasurer: .and Wesley Durkee, student council member. Mrs. Hazel Powell was class adviser. The sophomore class was represented in foot- ball with Paul Thalhofer, Paul Tennant, and Bob Burson earning their letters. Basketball held an attraction for the boys also. Wes Durkee and Paul Thalhofer earned their letters in this sport. The sophomore girls proved their mettle by win- ning the championship in the Girls' Basketball tournament. In the fall bond drive, the sophomores landed topdilace and a dance was held in their honor. e were well represented in the cantata and also in the band this year. Queen of the band carnival was Margaret White, the sophomore candidate. Suzanne Michel, Mary Graham, Georgiann Boyce, John Goodwin and Paul Thalhofer were on the Blue and Gold Banner staff.

In the third year in our quest for knowledge, Miss Irene Schlattman was the adviser, with the following officers leading their class: president, Don Peelerg vice president, Dean Dodsong secre- tary-treasurer, Suzanne Michelg and student coun- cil member, Onita McKinnon.

Georgiann Boyce was elected president of the Girls' League and Allyn Grimes and Onita McKinnon were elected secretary and treasurer respectively. Our classmates who left for the armed services were: Bob Burson, Bob Keeton, Leonard Wolke and Junior Towner. The Junior girls were well represented in the Pep Club as well as the Girls' League cabinet. The band and glee clubs also held the interest of a number of Juniors. In the fall of '45 we entered our last, and most eventful year at good old C.C.H.S. Miss Irene Schlattman guided and directed the class, while Herb Henry acted as presidentg Allyn Mae Grimes, v i c e presidentg Mildred Geer, secretary-treas- urerg and John Goodwin, student council member. The Seniors paid all respects to the Freshmen by giving them an initiation and party they will not soon forget. Eh! Frosh. Soon after school began, Don Peeler and Ward Sybouts entered the navy. The Senior play The Tin Hero, presented on December 12 and 13 was attended by a large au- dience and was acclaimed by all. Those included in the cast were Herb Henry in the title roll, Mary Graham, Allyn Mae Grimes, Kay Blake, John Goodwin, Paul Thalhofer, Bonnie Bailey, Shirley Hoskinson, Emogene Powell, Dallas Chalfant, Bon- nie Stone, Doris Gordon, and Irene Schlattman, director. The Senior class won the bond drive for the third time and also was first to acquire 100 per cent student body membership. Bob Johnston, Dean Dodson, Herb Henry, Wal- lie Almack, Paul Thalhofer, Dallas Chalfant, and Gene Smith won letters in football and John Goodwin, Herb Henry, Paul Thalhofer, Wallace Almack, Dean Dodson, and Wesley Durkee won their- letters in basketball.

Bonnie Post, Welles Adkisson, Mariel Westberg, Suzanne Michel, Mary Graham, Paul Thalhofer, and John Goodwin were active on the Blue and Gold Banner staff. A We are sorry to leave, but all good things must come to an end. Thus ends our high school career. CLASS, POEM IN THE HOLLOW OF GOD'S HAND lYouth is magnificent, For in it we have wonderful dreams That are not yet disturbed by common sense. Youth is ambitious and enthusiastic. It knows no limit. And we, who are youth itself, Dash into the river of life 5 To be swept through years of uncertainty Or caught on an island of security. We leave behind the outstretched arms of edu- ca ion Which has mothered and taught us Which byways to avoid And how to get along in the future. Indeed, we, youth, have a sacred and monstrous X job before us The lob of rebuilding the world. Shourid we let our ideal dreams of peace and se- cu y Crumble with age? Or should we foster them and try to bring them into reality? It will be for God to decide, For He is the ruler and we are only His servants. He gives us the ideas, We only fulfill them. If His decision is a world of brotherly love, Let this be our prayer. Oh, God, guide us in our future days. Help us better and mend our ways. Suffer us not to war again Through disaster, death, and pain, But let us lead the world To the peace and happiness unfurled By your Holy hand. Let us tell our children of the plight That the world was sunk in over night And help us teach them of the need Of abolishing distinction of race, color and creed. Let us call upon your wise advice When in fear of our nation's sacrifice To another country. Let our great and mighty nation rise, 'Til the Everlasting Peace comes from the skies, To lead the world from disastrous fate Which might lead to hell's fiery gate. And wash the war torn world's face of sin. We pray to You, for we all are in The Hollow of God's Hand. -Kay Blake.

THE SENIOR CLASS CLASS PROPHECY Only the stars know what's in store for us so let us look to the stars to see what the future holds for the class of '46. A reunion is being held at Dodson and Brown Power's Models Incorporated. Both have a great variety of models and who :io we see among them but outstanding blonde Nadine Towner and petite, dark-haired Stella Allen, slightly settled but still -as ravishing as ever. Patty Hyatt, their leading fashion expert, adds gaiety to the atmosphere by singing as she works. She is lucky because Ed Staley has proved such a good house- keeper who ably keeps the house and children aside from his hobby of making airplane models. Who is that poor bedraggled scrub woman in the corner? Lo and behold! It is none other than our own Bonnie Stone- still single hut hopeful. What's the matter with our. star stenographer, Emogene Powell? She can't seem to find a comfortable chair, maybe it's because she misses her boss's knee. Here comes Shirley Hoskinson, owner of Hoskie's Hacienda decked out in the latest riding apparel, and who do we see with her but her chief cowhand, Dallas Chalfant. He is her best asset because he draws the trade of all the wealthy damsels of the East. Is this a professor we see? Why certainly! The great pro- fessor of criminology, Wallace Almack, handsome and dis- tinguished with his glossy Van Dyke. Here's our one time ace hero of the air, Wes Durkee, who has now settled down and established Durkee's delivery of Dude's Duds He sends ship- ments to all the main Dude Ranches and his best customer is Hoskie's Hacienda. Wee Bonnie Bailey, opera star of the Metropolitan, has just returned from a tour of all the big cities. She has graciously consented to appear at the High School some time in the near future. uglhe reminds you of Madame Schumann Heink, only h0t I0 . For the best honey in town contact Eldon Powers. He learned the trade secrets from his father and is now a pros- perous business msn. Georgiann Boyce is still waiting for Bob Sly while she acts as Dean of Girls at the Academy of Alien Architecture. Georgiann is well liked by her girls due to the fact that she hxadsprevious experience as Girls' League President at C. C. We are honored with the presence of the historian of the day. known to us as Laurence Stratton. He teaches others, by means of the cinema, what he has learned about science, math, and life in general. Onita McKinnon is running a nursery for homeless cats. l've never seen anyone so devoted to her charges. Of tommies she has 16, of pussy cats she has 20 and each puss has at least 4 kittens and she can't bear to part with any of them. The famous ballet dancer, Suzanne Michel, is here to see our fashion expert about costumes for her next performance. She is accompanied by her problem husband, Ward Sybouts. zvho, in his moments of gloom drowns his sorrow at the soda ountain. Leading the list of the best dressed women of the nation is Joanne Loper, who has made music pay by the lyrics for the popular musical Loper's Lament directed by Ramona Ramsey. Ramona climbed the ladder of success the hard way. backwards, and is now the greatest director in the City of Stars . Herb Henry and Mariel Westberg are happily married. They have just returned from a world wide tour. Herb is a second Lawrence Tibbet, singing Don't Fence Me In. ac- companied by Mariel on her magic violin. This is Herb's theme song and Mariel sadly says, He doesn't mean maybe. Does John Goodwin always take his lawbooks with him whereever he goes? Seems he is trying to get his name at the head of the list of Muldune, McGuire, McGaffery, Mergatroid, dz Goodwin, Lawyers Incorporated. Elizabeth Butler and Paul Tennant, two political rivals have just entered. It appears that they are running strong competition against each other for president of the Political Progress of Prineville. Here comes Joe Quant, so-called rich man. He married a rich widow so he wouldn't have to work-not so dumb-huh? Meet our most prominent society belle, Mrs. Emery Tomlinson, last known to us as Allyn Mae Grimes. She is now residing on Ochoco Heights-and is an outstanding leader in all Prineville Social Activities. You are about to have the privilege of viewing the William Shakespeare of the 20th. Century, Ed Blann, famous for his ever popular Hoiman and Moitle. Who would have dreamed that our gentle classmate could have gone so far so fast. Have you been to your dentist lately? If not, we highly recommend Dr. Welles Adkisson who is well renowned for her painless tooth extractions. Little is known about her private life but she seems quite content with it. Entering is Bob Johnston, proprietor of Bob's Brewery and Ballroom. If you are in need of refreshment or entertain- ment this is the place to go. Best in the West. says Bob. Now enters Jim Howard. rancher and family man, who has outgrown his youthful timidity and when he ran for. State legislature he gave the longest and loudwt speech in the history of Crook County. What have we here? Why, Bob Lau is a traveling salesman, selling ladies lingerie and it looks as though the former Donna Meadows is his prey. Donna is a housewife and home- maker. She is kept busy trying to raise her family according to the modern ways. Lol and Behold! Here comes Pistol Packin' Mama alias Bonnie Post, who has been elected sheriff of Crook County by popular vote. Who could be better qualified for this po- sition than one who comes from a long line of pioneers that were born and raised in this vicinity. We now see Kenneth Prather. who has just returned from serving a term due to his efforts to speed up nature and in- herit his uncle's fortune. We would like to introduce Kay Blake. a talented enter- tainer from the Koo Koo Klub in New York City. She has sent so many people out of this world with her playing it is no wonder she has been placed there by popular demand. In our midst we find a great artist. Well known in the world of sports is this man. You may have heard of women going mad over Frankie, but have you ever heard of men going mad over ducks? Such is the case of our Bill Hartman and his ducks. You can always tell a teacher a mile off and speaking of teachers-here comes Mary Graham, our old maid school mom, who has a life long contract at Lone Pine. She manages to look quite chic in spite of her age and hard labor. The Prineville folks still get their local news from the Central Oregonian which is now edited by Orval McDowell, who is also mayor of Powell Butte and is very respected in the community. Since he has been editor, a new column has been added to the paper which is written by Mildred Geer, who gives advice to the lovelorn. She is well qualified for this position by her bitter experience in previous years. If her advice doesn't work and you're still lonely. iust step into Street's Lonely Hearts Club. This Matrimonial Agency, run by Eileen Street, is famous the country over. Guarantees prompt service for any and all broken hearts. Carrying out his ambition of former years we find Don Lewis, truck driver, delivering supplies from his truck farm to Prineville and vicinity. During the last 20 years Prine- ville has became so crowded that there is insufficient parking space so Don Cardin has established a parking lot on View Point, charging each car 25c per hour. Open day and night Knight especiallyl. The main part of his income comes from dimming his bright lighting system. We find Doris Gordon as financial adviser and bookkeeper for Gene Smith, wealthy gold miner. Perhaps she uses her albility go handle her figure rather than her figures to hold t is :io . Margaret White hasn't settled down yet. She has become a world-wide explorer in the hopes that some day she might find the perfect specimen of you know what. Tanned and weather-beaten. she returns from her quest. She hasn't found him yet but she's still hopeful. Well, forever morel Look at this. It's none other than Paul Thalhofer, sheep herder who writes hill billy songs in his spare time and accompanies himself on a jews harp. He herds sheep between Mitchell and Prineville and on the way he stops off to visit Don Peeler, the hermit who dwells on the peak of .Ochoco Mountain. He hates or loves all man- kind, depending upon what he has had for breakfast. Don't let anyone be misled by believing that what the stars say won't come true. They promise it to be the same caliber of accuracy as all previous class prophecies. .

From then on the activities were well planned and usually consisted of clean-up committees and other not-so-re- fined jobs as all Rooks take over when being introduced to the wily ways of a high school student. When election time rolled around we bestowed the office of president on Lee Adams: vice-president, Evelyn Larson: secretary-treasurer, Clara Adams: and student representative, Hughie Quinn, with Mr. Whitehead as our adviser. and Buck Warren receiving football letters. These and several others including Norman Barnes, Gail Billsborough and Ray Bailey made a very good showing in basketball by being on the B team. 3 This class was well represented in the field of sports by Gordon Orr, Lee Adams, Keith Warner, Several girls were also active in sports and glee club. Band was an activity undertaken by some talented Freshmen. The class dance was given on December 15, 1945 in the high school auditorium with the honored guests being the players of the University High of Eugene basketball squad. The Freshmen girls took an active part in the Girls' League and gave the winning skit, pre- pared in accordance with Mrs. Booton, Girls' League Adviser. Winding up the very busy and most trying year as freshmen was not easy, what with semester tests and the last few fading remarks of the out-going seniors to us, the lowly rooks. However, we are looking forward to our next year as Sophomores and to watching the in-coming Freshmen bow and polish shoes as we did. ff V D K 'Q E PAUL THALHOFER, President Pictured below are: reading from left to right R. Fearrien, B. McCormack, M. Doyle, J. C. STUDENT COUNCIL ernment is one of the most complex and arduous activities of the high school. Filling that position in our high school is the Student Council. The officers of the Student Body are elected by the students themselves in the year preceding that in which they are to serve. The class representatives are elected by the members of their class. The Advertising Manager, Athletics Manager, and the editor of the Blue and Gold Banner are elected by the Student Council. The President of the Girls' league is elected by its mem- bers. Each year the Student Council handles a stag- gering amount of business, problems about the school -affecting everyone-are argued and finally settled by the members of the council. Their position requires much responsibility and hard work which the mem- bers carry out to the best of their ability. - Student gov- .fx 1- : E. Fitch, H. Quinn, O. Buckley, S. Le Front row: P.

Meet- ing once a month, the girls planned the many activities presented during the year, under the leadership of the president, Georgiann Boyce. Helping her were the vice president, Mary Louise Powell: secretary, Allyn Mae Grimes: treasurer, Onita McKinnon, the adviser, Mrs. Elizabeth Booton, and the eight members of the cabinet. These girls met at a luncheon at Mrs. Booton's home before school started, to make an outline of the activities to be spon- sored for the coming year by the league. The traditional formal candlelight Freshman initiation was held the night of September 14th, 1945. A rose was presented to each freshman girl's mother. The cabinet invited the members of the fac- ulty to a tea after school September 12th, 1945. Each freshman girl was invited by her big sister, a senior girl, to a potluck supper and dance, October 2nd, 1945. A project was chosen by each committee for the purpose of augmenting the treasury, all committees competing for tgp hogors in money earned. The committee ma ing t e most profit . was honored at a party given by the remaining GEORGTANN BOYCE- President girls in the league. Swishing formals, lovely flowers, and smooth, romantic dancing were seen the night of Decem- ber 21st, 1945. The Snow Ball proved to be a wonderful dance for the students. Famous Couples' were seen February 15th, 1946, at the annual Co-ed Ball, girls exclusive. Danc- ing, entertainment and a box lunch filled the enjoyable evening. Something new was added to the Girls' League meeting March 27th, 1946. The girls were hostesses to the boys. 'lhe cabinet entertained them and later refreshments were served. New faces were seen at the meeting in April, when the eighth grade girls were invited to attend and get acquainted with their big sisters. The girls were entertained and then danced at this annual event. One of the most enjoyable activities during the year was when the girls entertained their mothers. May 3rd, 1946, the halls were filled with the sound of clicking heels, and sophisticated -looking girls waiting for the arrival of their mothers, ready to present them with a corsage. Refreshments were served, tlllie mothers were entertained, and the Girls' League awards were presented to the girls who earnedt em. Pictured above are: Back row, left to right: M. Graham: M.

A great deal of expense and labor was involved to put out the Spurs. Some may ask What is the object of an annual? That is one thing that is easier said than done. The object of the annual is to provide a means of looking back on those happy school years. One can always find entertainment in an old annual -- What an awful picture of Chuck or It was windy the day they took our pictures or else I would have been the best-looking girl there. It is always in- teresting to look back into the halls of the school with a book of familiar faces before you. One can remember every happy hour and, wouldn't you know it, every humiliating hour. It is something one will always keep - that will always amuse -- and will always prove to be good reading matter. Pictured below are: reading from left to rightg back row: E. Randall, D. Michel, M.

Coach Huff guided the Cowboys through one of the most rugged football seasons ever played by a Prineville grid squad. His team won four games while losing three and tying one. One of the losses was to the runners-up of the state championship, Hood River. Coach I-Iuff's basket- ball team played some of the top teams of the state and went through a gigantic 28 game schedule, winning 23 con- CH - Coach Marion Huff came to 'tests and losing only five.

FOOTBALL FLASHBACKS The Prineville football team, this year under the tutorship of Marion Huff, played a tough eight- game schedule and came out with a record of four games won, three lost, and one game in which the Lakeview Honkers tied the Cowboys 13 to 13. Coach Huff's boys started the season out fine by trouncing Grant Union's Prospectors with a score of 33 to 6. Then they pushed over Burns and Madras quite handily, but in doing so suffered serious injuries in the backfield which greatly hampered them in the big games that were yet to come. After this the Bronco-busters hit three tough teams in a row, losing to Hood River and The Dalles and, as aforesaid, tying Lakeview 13 all. It was then Prinevil1e's turn to chalk up a mark in the win column and this they did by walloping the Sweet Home Huskies in a very one-sided contest. The next game was the annual Armistice Day classic with Redmond. This was the all-important game of the season and the Cowboys fought like demons but lost to the Panthers by a heart-breaking 6 to 0 score. Seven footballers will be lost through graduation this year. They are as follows: Wally Almack, right half: Dallas Chalfant, quarterbackg Paul Thalhofer, fullbackg Dean Dodson, left half: Herb Henry, left end: Gene Smith, right guardg and Bob Johnston, left tackle. These boys played a lot of football for Prineville and will be missed next year.

HOOP HIGHLIGHTS Prineville High experienced one of the most successful basketball seasons of its history, this year, when they won 23 games out of 28 starts and la ed many of the best teams that the P y state had to offer. The Cowboys also won all three of their short games in the Central Oregon Jamboree, which was held early in December. The only sore spot of the season was the District Three tournament in which the Cowboys won their first game against Lakeview, but lost the championship tilt to the Bend Lava Bears in a close contest which saw the Prineville team give all it had. During the Christmas holidays, Coach Huff's Cowboys went on a long barn-storming trip into Eastern Oregon. The trip lasted 10 days, in which time the Crook County lads played seven games, winning four and losing three. Condon, Nyssa, and Burns fell before the Cowboys, the latter twice, while Pendleton, LaGrande, and Baker defeated the Cowboys three hard games. After the Busters returned home from their barn-storming jaunt they settled down and only lost two ball games the rest of the season. One of these losses was to Hood River and the Cow- boys quickly nullified this defeat by thumping the Blue Dragons in the second game of their two-game series. Bend was the only other team that could turn the trick as they edged Prine- ville by one point in a very thrilling contest. The Cowboys made up for this one too, however, when they blasted the Bears 45 to 31 in their return game. Prineville had a winning streak of 12 straight games toward the end of the season, git it was ended in the district tourney by n . Coach Huff claims the state traveling cham- pionship for his boys as they roamed over 2,400 miles of Oregon territory in search of worthy opponents. In filling their 28-game schedule, Prineville played 18 contests on the road, losing five and winning 13. The Cowboys were unde- feated on their home floor. As a whole, Coach Huff's hoopsters had a good season and it would have been perfect had they won the District Three championship, but things can't always be perfect. Boys who have earned their letters in basket- ball this year are as follows: Herb Henry, Wallie Almack, Paul Thalhofer, Wes Durkee, J, C.

G'A'A'- The Girl's Athletic Association which includes Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors spent a very active year under the direction of Miss Irene Schlattman. At the first meeting of the year the G.A.A. chose as their officers president, Bonnie Baileyg vice-president, Bonnie Stoneg secretary, Emogene Powell: treasurer, Donna Meadows. Early in the year a volleyball tournament was held with the Sophomores capturing first place. Basketball proved to be an active sport and the Senior class took first place in the tournament. The Redmond and Bend G.A.A. members were guests of the Prineville girls at a play day which turned out to be one of the highlights of the year. Play day proved to be a means by which the girls of the three schools could get acquainted and all share in some of the more popular girls' sports. Under the direction of Miss Schlattman, sixteen girls practiced once a week, at least everyone tried. The following girls were on the team: Suzanne Michel, Georgiann Boyce, Mary Graham, Sharon Westberg, Peggy Boyce, Barbara Burson, Shirley Hoskinson, Doris Gor- don, Sally Lewis, Clara Adams, Bonnie Stone, Bonnie Bailey Virginia Mink, Emerine Carlin, Marjorie Jones, and Welles Adkisson. The girls put on a tumbling act at the Redmond basketball game here, an act for the Crook County teachers meeting, a public demonstration, and performed for a student body assembly. When perform- ing the girls wore white shorts, white blouses, and their hair in braids. Q4- N I l fr 'Q 'Q V, 5 N I 'N Lg m .3 XF fix X Ga.
