Football is the main sport of fall term. This year the boys spent two to three hours practicing everyday starting from the 14th of September. After working hard all season twenty-six players lettered. The Mountie squad lost two seniors but left eleven fresh¬ men, eight sophomores, and seven jun¬ iors to return again next year. With potential of this kind the Eastern Oregon Mounties should go places in 1960. Above: Scott Bannister, freshman tackle from Weston, made a move from 6-man ball with ease. He is youngesl member of the squad but has greatl potential. Below: Dennis Bagnall, fresh man end from Pendleton, was out wit! injury after three games. Dennis show; great potential as an offensive ant defensive player. Lots of speed! Above: Charles Searcy, freshman from The Dalles, played in the end position. He is dependable with much desire to play but still needs additional experience. Below: Alan Moser, fresh¬ man end from La Grande, has a good football head with lots of potential. He is a possible quarterback candidate having played reserve ball this year. Above Center: Gordon Meyers, soph¬ omore tackle from Joseph, was a good defensive lineman. He could fill in at any position and had good speed and aggressiveness. Gordon was hurt part of the season but is very dependable. .mat mm

Then came two years of research, correspondence, travel, and inter¬ views with college administrators, personnel managers, students and undergraduate organiza¬ tions to determine the need for such an or¬ ganization as WHO’S WHO. Endorsement by these groups encouraged the venture; thus their publication first came into print for the school year 1934-35. This year Virginia Wellington, Mil¬ dred Wagner, Lyle Endicott, Linda Kane, Pasco Arritola, John Wil- marth, Bev Donovan, Jo Ann Berryman, Oran Hutton, Mike Fer¬ guson, and Carolyn Muller Fergu¬ son (pictured), Jean Hunter and . ■ , Sylvia Thompson received a formal letter beginning “You have been recommended to us from your campus for recognition . . .” The students recognized by this organization each year are nomi¬ nated from approximately 750 col¬ and universities. Campus leges Y ■ nominating committees are in¬ structed to consider, in making to consider, in their selections, the student’s schol¬ arship; his participation and lead ership in academic and extracur ricular activities; his citizenship and service to the school; his prom¬ ise of future usefulness.
